[{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Samuelsen|action=edit}} Vote here] (3/4/2) ending 17:30 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Samuelsen (talk · contribs) – Has made invaluable contributions to the fight of vandalism in articles related to Norway, upholds objectivity and does not engage in heated arguments. Trustworthy, however mysterious. Eddi (Talk) 22:20, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I accept. --Samuelsen 12:12, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Support

1. Support - He's been at wikipedia for years, and is still productive. - Hahnchen 17:37, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
2. Support 3 years, good time, haven't seen complaints.. Ronabop 17:37, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
3. Support as nominator. --Eddi (Talk) 17:38, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Oppose

1. Oppose 35 wikipedia namespace edits over a three year span is not good, needs more exprience. The answer for the questions is very small also. If you work on AFD's and other wikispace projects, you get my support in a few months. --Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 17:53, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
2. Oppose per Jaranda. Xoloz 18:32, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
3. Oppose He needs better answers to the questions below and I also agree with Jaranda. --a.n.o.n.y.m ^t 18:34, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
4. Oppose Per Jaranda, low project edits, 35 User_talk edits over 3 years, Terse answers to questions gives little more to go on. e.g. Question 1, many non-admins are extremely effective in fighting vandalism. --pgk^(talk) 18:49, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Neutral

1. More edit summaries please. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 18:41, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
2. Fact that he is an admin at Norwegian wiki with mostly project edits drives me here instead of oppose. Still, seems not very active on both no.wikipedia.org and here; will not flat out oppose due to obvious trust from Norwegian wiki (from which this is a whole different animal), and it's not a question of ready or not; just don't understand why he needs adminship here. -- Jjjsixsix ^(talk)/_(contribs) @ 19:36, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

• Question Looking at your contrib's and the summary for reversions it seems as if you already have rollback?! Am I looking wrong? Marskell 19:10, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
  • It's a surrogate from [1] I have installed at my monobook.js. It's a bit slow and I would like to have the real deal. --Samuelsen 19:41, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.

Fighting vandalism. --Samuelsen 12:12, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Expanded answer: When I am in the mood, I go to recent changes, hide logged in users and open the diffs in tabs to catch simple vandalism. The surrogate rollback isn't too good and the ability to block persistant vandals would be helpful. --Samuelsen 21:37, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?

Helping out with maintaining articles about Norway's 431 municipalities. --Samuelsen 12:12, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

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 how will you deal with it in the future?

Tend to back out of conflicts if they are not resolved quickly. --Samuelsen 12:12, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

The following are some optional questions. There are no correct answers to these questions and I simply want to know your opinions rather than see a correct answer. Thanks! --Deathphoenix 20:47, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
