Vote here (2/1/0) ending 03:43 31 December 2004 (UTC)
DCE has been here since September and has made several hundred edits. I think he has been here long enough to know the Wikipedia rules and the expected behavior of admins. Tuf-Kat 03:43, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
- I accept the nomination. DCEdwards1966 05:25, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
Support
- Three months, lots of edits, and involvement in meta-issues (VFD, etc.). Good enough for me. --Slowking Man 06:44, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
- Support. Does some great work. Mgm|(talk) 08:25, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
Oppose
- All those album edits are generated programatically, not hand-edited, and no source is given for the album cover images. Almost all of their edits lack edit summaries, which are important for communication. Very little (any?) time spent doing any routine maintenance. The communication aspect is most important, because without it, I don't know much about how they'd be as a sysop. For instance, as of writing, user has only 9 edits on other user talk: pages. Sorry. -- Netoholic @ 16:26, 2004 Dec 24 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
- 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
- A. I would continue to look for and deal with vandalism.
- 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- A. Most of my edits have been to *album articles. Being a programmer, I have written a program to format data for creating album infoboxes and articles.
- 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and will deal with it in the future?
- A. I have only had a few conflicts and they were all quickly reconciled. I try to see the other persons point of view when a conflict arises because I know I'm not always right.
