Touch Of Light (talk · contribs) - {{{Description}}}

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

I accept this invitation TOL 03:41, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?

A: As an admin, I would continue to revert vandalism made by users who are clearly here just to vandalize Wikipedia and make it unenjoyable to others.

2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?

A: Probably RuneScape, because I have been playing the game for about 3 years and know alot of information that has to do with the subject. I am also a big fan of the English Empire, and hope to expand the articles related to that subject more efficiently.

3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?

A: Only once, but it has been cleared because it was clearly a mistake of editing on my part.

1. I think he may be good with Wikipedia because he/she wants to get involved and make Wikipedia a better place. Goodshoepd35110s 03:39, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1. Unconvincing; has no idea of what adminship is. Pretty much no participation in admin-critical areas. Strong oppose. O₂ (息 • 吹) 03:50, 15 October 2007 (GMT)

   The comment appears a bit abrasive. Mercury 04:16, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

2. Oppose Positive interactions with user while he was trying to report a vandal to AIV, but needs much more experience in mainspace and Wikipedia space to gain more experience. If you keep up the good work, ToL, you can try again in a few months. In the meantime, though, I recommend you retract this nomination. GlassCobra 04:00, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
3. Oppose. Not enough overall experience yet; only a month and a half of active editing. Some more time is needed to demonstrate that you have a sound understanding of policies and procedures. I recommend getting some more experience in admin-like areas, such as WP:AFD. If you ever have any questions about anything, I'm always available on my talk page. Useight 04:18, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
4. Oppose per above. Miranda 04:21, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
5. You're too inexperienced right now, but I encourage you to continue to edit regularly, become familiar with the policies and guidelines, and participate in administrative areas. I give you the same offer that Useight gave: if you have any questions or need any help, feel free to ask. WODUP 04:32, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
6. Strong Oppose Not enough experience, might not fully understand our policies and admin works like WP:AFD. Chris! _ct 04:43, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
7. Inexperience. Daniel 06:10, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
