Geni (talk · contribs) - I've been around on wikipedia since oh March 2004. During that time I've done just about everything possible on wikipedia at some time or another. Apparently I have a little over 20K edits on my main account and 5K edits on Genisock2. Recently I have been concentrating on copyright issues. I have been an admin before and yes I was de-admined by arbcom but I would argue that over the last year both the project and myself have changed somewhat to the extent that he conditions that caused the problem are somewhat unlikely to reoccur. I've been an admin on commons since sept 07 and that doesn't appear to have caused any problems.Geni 15:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Questions for the candidate

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: Mostly being able to see deleted edits to trace user's upload history when makeing copyright assements and being able to deal with CSD-I9 and G-12 stuff. Other than that stuff I'm directly asked to deal with mostly.

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

A: Stroudwater Navigation perhaps? Nicely reffed with info from offline sources and covers a fairly important canal that was completely missed. Much of the stuff in Category:Old Ordnance Survey map images and it's commons equivs. Lot of PD material there that has the potential to be used widely.

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: Yeah ok I've been involved in conflicts. Ideally stop debate try to find common ground try and bring in outsiders or people to view the problem from a different angle.

Discussion

Support

Strong support. Excellent, dedicated, sensible person. His pithy remarks are almost always right on target. Haukur (talk) 16:19, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Geni's okay. It's been a good length of time since the desysopping, and he hasn't been in a hurry to re-request adminship, in fact, he even turned down rollback not too long ago. He'll be fine. Acalamari 16:40, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

Oppose - Narrow-minded as it may sound: I don't even bother to review users' statistics if their answers to the first three (and possibly most important) are this short. If you would like to "extend" them I may be minded to review the situation...--Camaeron (talk) 16:10, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose — I view self-noms as prima facie evidence of power hunger. Kurt Weber (Go Colts!) 16:35, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
