Thanks :) Spicy (talk) 16:16, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

seconded - really glad you spotted these! Andrew Gray (talk) 17:45, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations

Hey - I don't really consider this to be jumping the gun, given where the numbers are right now. The numbers don't lie: 200+ supports and no opposes, that is a monumental sign of how much faith the community has in you. The fact that you had the chutzpah to do a self-nom on 1 April, and come out smelling of summer roses - well played sir. Now, go block your own socks at SPI ;) Girth Summit _(blether) 21:32, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats from me too. I have closed your RFA as successful, one of the most successful of all time. Someone will doubtless bring the Tshirt at any moment, wear it with pride, you've earned it. If you ever get bored scrabbling down the back of the sofa for the right block message, some kind person put the code for a really nifty dropdown menu into my monobook.

Enjoy the extra buttons Cabayi (talk) 10:46, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks everyone. Well, it didn't actually end up being unopposed, but nothing can be perfect. There are so many new buttons... I've been pressing some of them. The admin version of SPIhelper is a little intimidating. Grateful to everyone for their support. Spicy (talk) 11:06, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 12:30, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations @Spicy! Wear it proud.

Congratulations on the adminship! 192.76.8.84 (talk) 13:49, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Oxford. If I remember correctly, you once said that the only reason you'd consider creating an account is so that you could RfA. I'm just saying... I would support. Spicy (talk)

Definitely not the only reason! Tamzin suggested I should create an account a while back in a conversation, I said I'd consider it but I didn't end up making one at the time. I nearly made an account a few months ago just to turn off this godawful redesign - I find this new skin a pain to use for anything more complex than reading. To be honest I'm not sure if I'd ever run for adminship, I don't think I'd have any chance of passing. 192.76.8.84 (talk) 14:19, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations

It’s official I hear, time to update your edit notice. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 10:30, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done :) Spicy (talk) 11:06, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulation ❤

Proud moment for us. @Spicy Many many congratulation for achieving what you deserve. NP83 (talk) 11:43, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Passing the baton

A baton for you!

As per tradition (since Tamzin began it for DanCherek's RfA), I am happy to pass this admin baton to you, as it was passed to me by ComplexRational in March. Congratulations becoming the English Wikipedia's newest administrator! There's going to be a lot of new buttons and options and things to read and to test out and many offers of congratulations and it's a lot to take in, but I and others are always more than happy to help both on-wiki and on Discord, so please reach out as often as you'd like. Remember when mopping that it's best to use overlapping figure eights. :) Aoidh (talk) 14:12, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
