RJFJR

[edit]

Closed (26/0/1) ended 14:09 11 October 2005 (UTC)

RJFJR (talk · contribs) – RJFJR has been here on Wikipedia since the end of November 2004. He's someone who works diligently behind the scenes to make Wikipedia a better place. His entire edit history is filled with a tremendous amount of participation in a number of important cleanup tasks. He's also dedicated to making new users feel welcome here, and will even complete the AfD posting steps that we may sometimes occasionally forget. RJFJR is motivated, friendly, and above all - trustworthy. I think this user would make a fine administrator, and I hope the community thinks so too. --HappyCamper 00:54, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I am honored to accept (we may all know that admin is no big deal, but it's still great to be asked!) RJFJR 05:13, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  5. Support, on the condition he tells me what "RJFJR" stands for. I like his answers to the questions, and looking through some of his recent contributions was greatly heartening.

Comments

  • What RJFJR stands for: RJF is my initials, the JR at the end is for Junior, which I am. When you put them all together it is a palindrome, which I just think is cool. RJFJR 17:10, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]


Questions for the candidate
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
A. If there is something that needs doing, let me know, I'll do it. If I see something that needs doing, I'll do it. Otherwise, I'll be working on articles that need cleanup. I'm sure there are some backlogs I can contribute to eliminating.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. I haven't created many new articles (with 750,000 articles most things already exist) so my contributions are scattered around. I've been mainly working on stub-sorting, deadend pages and articles needing cleanup, but I've been adding some material as I work on them. There are a few things that I remember liking the way they came out...but when I went back I could usually see room for improvement.
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?
A. I've generally managed to avoid conflicts. My reaction to reading stressful material is to get up and walk away from my computer for a while, that helps me avoid typing things in haste that I'll later regret. It also helps me avoid typing with excessive sarcasm.
