fine. However, if you do actually want to be an admin (or just want more diversity) I suggest you intersperse some of your anti-vandalism and auto-cleaning with article building. Like Airplaneman said, write a GA or if you don't want to commit to that much work (I haven't yet), just pick a little, underdeveloped article, clean it up, expand a little, add some refs. Normally it takes me about and hour (minimum) and the article comes out a whole lot better for it. And for why you should do this: 1. it's good experience. 2. if you do actually want to be an admin, people will look at your automated vs. manual edits, and most prefer to see a balance/more manual. Also, have you been watching the RfA page at all? Even if it's awhile before you're going to think about running, or if you never run, it can still provide you with a great gauge of what the community expects from more experienced editors. Anyway, that's really long, but those are my comments!

It took me way longer to "learn the ropes" here (a great adopter probably would've helped :D). Keep up the vandal whacking, and don't burn yourself out too fast 463:
Thanks! That means a lot to me! =D Huggle's interesting. It's an awesome tool for doing what it does best, viz. vandal-fighting. But it's annoyingly inflexible when you try to use it for other things, e.g. monitor pages edited by newbies. (e.g. it doesn't support Special pages.) Other than the

Hello, I requested for XLR8's page to be protected, it's my first time to do it but I don't know if I did the right thing so please help me to check it. Anyway, XLR8's page has been vandalized by haters almost everyday it's frustrating that's why I want the page to be protected. Thanks and God bless!

Hi, I recently edited the Cumulate Rock page because it was demonstrably factually inaccurate, and you reverted my changes. I am assuming this is because I made three edits in short order. It is my first submission and I tried to leave as much of the original content as possible, and only change

Right, though that is not the same as vandalism. This editor has a habit of using the vandalism tag too loosely. Need to assume good intentions, while marking it for references rather than vandalism.
