Your RfA (2nd)
[edit]Please do not nominate yourself for adminship immediately after being opposed. It only clutters up the RfA page, and since you still have a very low amount of experience, it will almost definitely end up closed as "oppose". As one of the key factors in an RfA is your edit count and summary usage, you may want to work on that. NF24(radio me!Editor review) 23:18, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Your request for adminship
[edit]Hi Hastingsaxonspride, I'm sorry to inform you that I've closed your request for adminship early because it was unlikely to succeed. For users to be granted admin status, they have to show that they are trusted members of the community. Individual editors each have their own standards for adminship candidates, but here are a few tips that may help you pass the next time round:
- Wait a bit longer before your next request. Many Wikipedians think that the length of time that users should be active on the project to get a firm grasp of all the policies and guidelines is roughly 3 months.
- Try to make some more edits. Administrators need to show they have a thorough understanding of policy, so it would be a good idea for you to contribute in wikipedia space, article space and talk space to show you can communicate with others.
You may wish to take a look at the admin coaching program, which would allow you to have your own coach who could personally direct you along the right path, or consider an editor review, allowing other users to comment on your edits and give you ways to improve. The guide to requests for adminship provides further considerations to make before applying again. Let me thank you for your contributions so far, and if you follow the above advice, there is no reason why you can not have a successful RfA in the future. Acalamari 23:53, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
