Nomination

Hahc21 (talk · contribs) – Fellow Wikipedia Editors, I am very proud to introduce to you all Hahc21. He has been on the project since March 2008 but didn't start to edit actively until September 2011. Hahc21 has most of his contributions in the article main space, and with his article work he has managed to promote several featured lists, featured articles, featured pictures, good topics, good articles and several DYKs. In Articles for deletion, 94.2% of his votes accurately matched consensus. Recently, Hahc21 also become a trainee clerk for the Arbitration Committee. From the above, I am more than proud to call Hahc21 a very impressive user and a great candidate for a administrator. John F. Lewis (talk) 23:03, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Co-nomination

Hahc21 has a solid record of high-quality content contributions and sensible input to behind-the-scenes aspects of the projects, and it's my pleasure to co-nominate him for adminship. He is a tireless article writer, contributing articles on topics ranging from Venezuelan history to French music to video games. He often contributes to Wikipedia-space discussions, where his input is measured and sensible. He has excellent knowledge of image licensing, and is an OTRS volunteer. In addition, he serves as a trainee clerk for the Arbitration Committee. He unsuccessfully ran once for adminship before, and I believe that he has taken the feedback he received from that attempt to heart. Overall, I think Hahc21 is a solid candidate for adminship.

Co-nomination

My experiences with Hahc21 have been all positive. From his tireless input in article creation, to his massive Good Article backlog elimination, in all ways he deserves to be an administrator. He has been active for over a year now, contributing to discussions and Good Article reviews, and has racked up over 20,000 edits. He is also active on Wikimedia Commons where he is an image reviewer and has uploaded over 150 photos. Along with all this work, he is an active OTRS member and an Arbitration Committee Clerk in training. And yes, everybody can see the "2" in the page title, but as Mark already said, I believe he has learned from his mistakes and is ready for another run. He did have an edit restriction imposed against Non Admin Closures, but this has been lifted by the community for good reason. To sum up, Hahc is sensible, experienced, and would benefit the Wikipedia community if granted the sysop flag. Vacation9 00:48, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I am thrilled and grateful. I accept this nomination, and thank the nominators for the trust they have in me. If successful, I will commit myself to do my best to serve the community, and to be of greater help when needed. Thanks. — Hahc21talk 14:33, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?
A: First of all, I intend to work on the files area, given that I have a considerable knowledge of image licensing. Alongside that, I would throw myself at PERM, an area I have studied closely the last several months. As a third option, I would work at Articles for Deletion, an area which I have dedicated a big amount of time, and where I always enjoy participating. However, given the recent events I had, related to closing AFD discussions, I would venture there very slowly, following the guide of two admins I trust, Mark Arsten and Elen of the Roads, before going ahead by myself. Finally, I intend to keep working on content just like I currently do at WP:GAN, WP:FAC and WP:FLC (if granted the tools, I could also help with the housekeeping tasks of those areas), as well as performing the duties I currently have with the Wikimedia Foundation, where I serve as a member of one of their Grants Committees, and at OTRS.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I believe that my best contribution, and the one I'm most proud of, is all the content work I have done on this Wikipedia. I have been honoured with several featured articles, lists and pictures, as well as good articles and topics. They are, for me, a work of art what has great significance because they resemble the very purpose of this encyclopedia. Apart from that, I am very proud of my work at templates; my contributions at the Good article nominations project, where I have co-ordinated two drives and have been doing a tireless work to try to find solutions to all the problems we face out there; my work helping at Articles for deletion; and finally, my work with files. I have a personal interest with files, and I enjoy working with them. I spend a great quantity of my wikitime uploading, verifying and working with files here and on Wikimedia Commons.
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: I have rarely been in a editing conflict. I have had several situations that caused me stress; the first time it happened was before I ran for adminship the first time, and involved several users that edit closely to me (Status, Till, Tomica and Calvin999). After that, I was involved in the dispute that led to my now-lifted restriction, although it didn't cause me stress. Since then, I have hardly been involved in any dispute; I am a very calmed and patient person that avoids conflicts and stressful situations. I prefer to drop the battle sooner rather than later and avoid as much drama and damage as possible. After all, when I joined Wikipedia, my main goal was to dedicate myself to write content, and it has mostly been my work here, despite the very wide variety of things I have done that are unrelated to content creation.
