183:.Ā :). Your personal conduct is immaculate and above question. You have written many good stubs on the Lok Sabha members will soon have an FA, which shows that you are committed to quality writing first and foremost. Of course, you can always get some more DYKs like I said before. I would say late September personally (I'm an old guy...21, so I am rather conservative, Srikeit and Sango with their exuberance of youth insisted on Srikeit's 2nd RfA going in early July, although I was rather concerned at copping 10-15 hits personally). The vandal-fighting can be done easily by sticking all the Indian states and major Indian cities, politicians, cricketers, etc onto your watchlist - they will attract a lot of nonsense. You can extend this to non-Indian stuff also. If you have a system which supports all the vandal tools then you don't even have to bother with this, it will prompt you and you only need to click a button. With regards to Srikeit's second post, see

also under control - I think that's very important, as it keeps your mind fresh and helps you live a better life. For the purposes of adminship, I suggest that you (a) diversify and spread yourself across a wide range of topics, tasks and articles - its good to be an India-specialist editor/admin, but a wider range will help
Knowledge, and yourself. (b) Aim to develop policy knowledgability - as an admin you'll need to be decisive and sharp. You are an unblooded weapon, so a few encounters with vandals and trolls will help you. Undoubtedly you'll be stressed, but the key is how fast and well you can resolve the problem without losing cool. Don't try to change human nature, just protect content and help productive users. (c) Don't be obsessed about an RfA (counting the days, hours, etc... Yes it does happen!) or worried about what people think - adminship is a responsibility, not a prize.

result of another 2 months which I spent patrolling for vandals which is where I discovered the workings of many things at wikipedia like blocking, AIV. My worst day at wikipedia was obviously the day I got blocked but that day gave me 2 lessons - First was that I have some invaluable friends and co-workers at wikipedia. The second thing I learned was the use of all those Admin noticeboards. I used to think that no one gave much attention to it. But when admins whom I had never known condemned the block and lifted it immediately, it restored and redoubled my faith about the role of admins. I would like to apply (or be nominated) for adminship in the near future and would like suggestions as to how I can improve myself here. -
