3210:, IMHO. If a consensus is there to make this a guideline (or heck, even policy), I see little reason to oppose. Until then it is just an opinion. I do not hold this process in contempt; the exact opposite is true, but holding people to some vague, imaginary standard that isn't defined is like a cop pulling someone over and telling them "Your car looks too fast. Bring it around again in 3 months and I'll probably let you drive it through here then." That's not the law and a cop just can't make it up on a whim. If there is a compelling reason and consensus to have such a "rule" then let's get it in the directions. I'd support 2 weeks - 1 month, or maybe 1000 mainspace edits, or any reasonable additional criteria provided it has consensus. Honestly, 802:. I think that blocking people for past acts...is what we do; kinda hard to block them for future acts... but I assume you mean acts far in the past. In that case, I would refrain from blocking them, though I might warn them on their talk page as a friendly reminder or suggest the complaining party do the same. If someone is repeatedly violating it, punishments should rise accordingly. In a backlog, it all depends how long the backlog is. If it is a few hours? days? weeks? months? It's all a matter of perspective. Basically hours: yes; days: probably, but I'll temper it on severity and time since last edit. Weeks: probably not, except in extreme cases. Months: I can't imagine dong anything other than a note on their talk page. 3831:
going to start parroting Knowledge (XXG) policy back at you, but a reasonable person would see a pattern of reverts at A&M related articles that is indicate of somebody who has assumed ownership over those works. You keep saying people ignore the solutions you've offered, but that's generally because they don't solve the problem that originally caused the dispute. You don't acknowledge the other side and so these debates rage on for days or weeks until the other side gives up. This is absolutely not the behavior of an administrator and at this point I'd think you'd be better off withdrawing this RfA, cooling off for a bit and coming back later with a little more flexibility on these issues.
3322:
prefer that those rules were clear and precise, so that every user has a fair chance to conform their conduct to community norms. So I don't think that BQZip01 has shown any kind of contempt for community consensus. If you want to oppose on the grounds that three weeks isn't long enough to have improved from the last RfA, then that's fine; I personally disagree, but it's a perfectly fair and well-reasoned rationale, and I respect the opinion of those who have made that comment. But I don't think people should oppose on the basis that he's failed to follow an uncodified and arbitrary "rule" which, in fact, has no binding force whatsoever.
3172:
organizations have values and customs with little direct connection to the job at hand, and that you dismiss them at your peril. In effect, you've shown up for inspection wearing sneakers and a crumbled, stained uniform, and we're - demonstrably - no more amused than your top would be. Protesting that you had no idea you were supposed to wear shined shoes wouldn't have done you good then ... it was your job to know. In the wake of your last RfA, more than one editor suggested you hook up with an admin coach who could show you the ropes. That advice was sound then, and you should take it now.
3532:
sake of policy is, in a word, stupid. But arguing extensively over things that by reading a dozen or two failed repeat RFAs is obvious is just bizarre. RFA is a dog and pony show, but thats what it is. Looking more at your contribs and tone you seem to be always ready to leap headfirst into a lawyerly, overly legal and procedural defense. Common sense is what drives us, the whole "IAW" and Law Of The Land thing--no offense--is the way things work in the military, having known many, many, many, many military men myself, but not here. Rules are nothing more than what someone
1034:, and his edit history. I will be happy to give assistance as requested. Additionally, I also only intend to take cases for block/rejection that are pretty clear-cut (WP:3RR and WP:SSP). Anything done administratively at that point would be a violation of Knowledge (XXG) policy. I would be happy to warn them and explain the problem to help correct it, but anything taken that far is likely a problem anyway. I have only once (see above) fallen into that trap, so I don't see it as a problem I would explicitly deal with in administrative actions. 4287:(nods) I wonder how many Oppose voters would have been quite satisfied with something along the lines of "Damn, I'm sorry I missed that. Fair enough, if you folks expect a few months between RfAs so you're satisfied the changes you wanted to see in me stuck, I can do that. You'll be seeing me in the summer." Most of us? One of the most pressing needs in any consensus-run community is the ability to recognize when you're on the losing side of an argument, and to close it up and either follow or get out of the way. 4202:
have to know that what you are doing on your page is visable. The question is why in the world you would do this, especially now? Is it self destructiveness? Immaturity? Inability to see the end result of ones actions? It does not matter. It becomes increasingly clear to your supporters as to why you filed for RfA and what you would do with the tools if you had them. A word of advice...when you find yourself in a hole and things are collapsing in all around...you just might want to stop digging
4071:
the editor's conduct on-Wiki. Whether or not it is wise to disclose your profession in such a way on-Wiki is a whole other can of worms, but a person choosing to reveal their real name or career is not entitled to any special rights or priveledges that other editors do not also enjoy. Whether someone is an officer in the Military has nothing to do with assessment of their on-Wiki actions. If any user has demonstrated immaturity, it's perfectly fine to state as much in their RFA.
3267:
agree with him. Admins can be expected to be aware of, and to follow, those rules explicitly laid down by the community in policies and guidelines - just as a member of the armed forces must follow all orders and regulations, no matter what they personally think about it. But it is not reasonable to expect people to be aware of an uncodified, informal convention, such as waiting 3 months between RfAs, and to follow it as if it were a binding rule.
151:
up with some way to allow users to notify those with whom they have collaborated that they are trying to become an administrator without undue influence. In the interests of clarity and avoiding undue influence, I request that any user I contacted in my previous nomination annotate as such and only respond in the neutral section. If you choose to support or oppose me, I request that you mark that I contacted you on my previous RfA.
875:. While I don't always agree with him, it still gives a useful stick from which to measure. His insight and depth of experience in this area also allow for some consistency in the rules and clarification when necessary (he will even interject comments like "this is not an actionable objection"), which here could allow for a smoother process with a more structured approach. I would like to stress that 3359:
intended to be a blunt answer to emphasize a point, not contempt. Users across Knowledge (XXG) are blunt all the time (just look around this RfA). I take no great offense at it, but I will explain my rationale, as requested. For clarification, I wasn't aware this was a requirement and I will remember that some people believe it is so for next time I apply (should I decide to do so).
4619:(still under construction) are examples of what I mean; I did all the sourcing on each of them. It's a little thing, but being two of our most important policies (to me) I'd say work on that, and wait a few months, and do some recent changes patrol--dealing with and correctly blocking random vandals is a major part of what you'll have to do. You only have 11 posts so far to 251:
sharp the criticism was. In any situation, by delaying a response for a day (or more), both sides of a discussion are forced to cool down. In my case, the conflict subsided rather quickly. Furthermore, by initiating a slowdown, those who want a quick fiery death for a perceived archnemesis (colorful language used strictly for effect), are disappointed and move along.
4046:. Considering that this user technically meets most of my standards, as an active user, I still must oppose. The userpage(s) are overly promotional; this self-nom is too soon; the user has demonstrated immaturity; the user's answers are very poor. I'm not going to belabor these and other points raised by others against the gentleman. Sorry, sir. 2905:"...this user will go many steps further and actively seek to undermine people who have made those edits." How so? You have made several edits with which I disagree and you call it stalking (never mind the article you were trying to delete was kept). I and any other editor are open to edit any page we wish. This is an encyclopedia that 1792:, and not on your contribution history, which is excellent. There is no evidence that you will abuse the tools, therefore I am happy to support your self-nom. The horrible irony here is that you were first opposed on a technicality, and now you're opposed on the technicality of not waiting long enough since that technicality? Ick. 4111:
of phrasing - I think a more respectful term should be used than "immaturity", given who the candidate is. It was only a minor point, but one that's important to me personally. As I said, I have no quibble with the substantive grounds for Bearian's oppose (I disagree with him, but he has every right to oppose in good faith).
1703:- He and I are both involved in the Waterboarding arbitration case, and his comments there demonstrate level-headedness and a sound understanding of NPOV. I have no issue with the short lapse of time between the two RfAs; IMO the previous RfA should have passed anyway, and even if he wasn't ready then, he certainly is now. 1622:, but I will not hold it against you. I think you need a little more paitents in your pursuit of greater responsibility, but I have seen your capacity to remain cool in the face of heated debate and your willingness to meet others half way, therefore I offer my support for your rfa and moral support should this one fail. 1952:- His RfAs seem to implode, because he falls into RfA's recursive traps, but we should look past that. He has a "do it, fix it, try it" mentality, he genuinely cares about Knowledge (XXG) and the people in it, and he's resilient. These will make him a fine admin. He needs more familiarity with this community's 2846:
thing (though still incompatible with policy), but this user will go many steps further and actively seek to undermine people who have made those edits. This has a chilling effect on those editors and may discourage their contributions in this future. It is for these actions that I firmly oppose this nomination.
3655:, and often seems unwilling to listen to or consider the views of other editors. While he allowed my removal of the A&M seal from the A&M article to stand, so far, someone aiming for adminship who mostly focuses on university articles should have recognized the problem earlier, and not needed to have a 2648:. "Manipulated images should be prominently noted as such." If university officials have discussed "expansion plans for Kyle Field which could boost capacity to 115,000 with the addition of a south endzone and wraparound seating," and BQZip made an image that illustrated that, then I have to conclude it's 4237:. It appears to me that the candidate's application is blatantly self-serving, writing whatever the candidate believes is most likely to "sell" -- but a truer picture of the candidate's temperment is to be found in the ongoing discussion, which fundamentally contradicts the candidate's earlier assertions. 3050:. I have posted numerous compromises and you have seen fit to acknowledge or offer an additional compromise on none of them. That you find statistics "meaningless" and there only "to promote the stadium" I hav explained numerous times with no response other than another deletion of the material. I have 2952:) when it suits argument, but does not appear to have an appreciation of what these things mean." I have a very clear idea what they mean. That I disagree with you (or you disagree with me) as to what they mean is one reason we have talk pages in the first place: to calmly hash these disagreements out. 4004:
Marvelous,(131.44.121.252 belongs to the US Government), my hard earned tax dollars at work. Well, from what I see, if you preface your edits with disclaimer statements, and wikilawyer enough policy links, you can do whatever you want around here. Is there anything you endear more than winning on a
3986:
Well you prefaced that statement with an allegation of me stalking you, specifically: " I am concerned with his attitude and would like your feedback regarding his edits, most recently on the Kyle Field talk page. He has made numerous misquoted, misleading, hostile, and threatening statements, to try
3913:
with some bizarre arguments, and then refused to ever back down or concede a single point on anything. The last thing we need is another administrator with a high-handed, arrogant attitude who refuses to back down. Sorry. If you're going to fight to the death over frankly bullshit no one cares about,

come to mind off the top of my head. These are not merely "happened" to be codified, but are the results of hundreds of editors and a community consensus. Violations of these policies can have more than an academic effect and can create real harm. Rules here on Knowledge (XXG) are intended to prevent
3384:
My opposition is not based on the "three-month rule", rather it is based on your response to the concerns raised with regard to that "rule". The impression I get is that you are arguing "well, it's not a hard-and-fast rule so it doesn't count" whereas the better response would be along the lines of -

is that I am of that philosophy, not that it is policy or a guideline. You have made no effort to compromise and I have made several changes and offers. To call my actions ridiculous... If you were trying to "avoid the edit war", why did you insist on making changes without discussing them? I offered

Even though it is your userpage, that does not give you the right to call others "tards" (which itself is highly demeaning to the mentally disabled) based on their college affiliation. Some might say I'm taking a joke too literally, but as an administrator you would have to withstand the same sort of

In short, I re-renounce any support of said image for use outside of the article page (since it would fall under Knowledge (XXG)'s fair use rules). Since editors in the article page don't want it there, it has no viable fair use and should not be on Knowledge (XXG) unless consensus changes otherwise.
799:
The three revert rule is an electric fence, not an entitlement. The 3RR is intended as a means to stop sterile edit wars. It does not grant users an inalienable right to three reverts every twenty-four hours or endorse reverts as an editing technique. Persistent reversion remains strongly discouraged

is not a policy, it is a good guideline which I felt I followed to the letter and with its intent in spirit. If you disagree, I have still taken steps to ensure that any residual feedback from those friendly notices (that's how I intended them) was mitigated and made assurances that I will not repeat
4747:
I think this editor has the potential to be a great admin but I am a little concerned with his ability to over explain his actions. I think an admin should be able to make a point in a few words and make them pointed enough that the readers get the point. No need to be defensive. I would like to see
4201:
So, during your RfA, while all are watching, you decide to incite a side show, bringing it to center stage by egging on CC. You are clearly building up an ammo dump for potential use against your foe. It does not matter if you pull the trigger. The build up is an act of aggression in itself. You
4110:
I feel you may have over-interpreted my comments. I certainly don't advocate giving people adminship just because of their RL occupation, or giving them any extra privileges because of it. The opposers all have valid opinions, to which they're perfectly entitled. My objection was only on the grounds
4096:
Without levying any such accusation myself, Lawrence is spot-on ... quite aside from the obvious fact that serving members of the military have been guilty of far worse traits than immaturity. Beyond that, Knowledge (XXG)'s been stung quite badly enough over incidents where people were given passes
4070:
What people do professionally "IRL" has no bearing on this. RFA's role is to assess if a candidate is likely to abuse the tools, or if Knowledge (XXG) will benefit from their being admins. That includes frank assessment of on-Knowledge (XXG) behavior. The assessment by Bearian appears to be based on

This is a light-hearted response intended to diffuse the situation with humor. I honestly mean that I am sorry that word was used on my page and I will NEVER use it again...ever!

That image should have been tagged immediately by the uploader and deleted months ago. A half dozen or so

I don't think this RfA will pass, but I think generally that BQ has good admin potential and I agree that falling afoul of guidelines and customs is not generally an appropriate RfA-killer. I opposed on the last one because I personally thought that canvassing had occurred, intentionally or not, and

The question is itself obvious, we all know what the user space is for(and I could care less that you tie up a kb or 2 with personal matters). Your answer though tells us worlds of info on whether you are the type of individual that would say "Your right, I'll fix that right away", or an individual

on A&M related articles. In fact, I did it earlier within this RfA. You keep shrugging that off saying that because you disagree with somebody (and then revert all their edts) doesn't mean you own the article and that we must somehow be misinterpreting your actions or that policy. Well, I'm not
3764:
Um, yes you can. The image does not meet the fair use requirements, but I suppose you will not accept that unless/until A&M sends a C&D letter, as other universities have already done, and demands the image be removed. They own the image. They can legally refuse to allow anyone to use it
3513:
per many reasons above. Not does only a new self-nomination so soon after the previous RfA show questionable judgment, it shows insufficient patience, and we need both from our administrators. Also, I should think that someone who says he wants to focus on 3RR would have been more involved with 3RR
3086:
As for "tard," I always took it as a bastardized form of "turd" (think "turd" with a Texas drawl) as do most of my extended family. I will be happy to let them know about this interpretation. Seeing as how that offensive meaning is attached to the word, I have removed it accordingly (seriously, all

Your edits seemed to be directed in a way that would prevent me from making any changes to this encyclopedia and would thus drive me away from editing in frustration or fear. I don't know if you've done this in the past but again, this certainly is not the type of behavior anybody would expect from

support. Splendid article contributions and ability to collaborate outweigh any other lack of experience concerns. Opposing simply because it is "too soon" is just instruction creep. My only plea would be that the candidate remember that this is a free content encyclopedia and take much better care
441:
You have suggested that you have an interest in working with vandals and disruptive users. The procedures for warning and blocking vandals are well known. My question to you is: In what situations do you feel that its necessary to deviate from the outlined procedures? Under what circumstances to do
405:
In general, I intend to give vandals fair warning (several warnings on the user page with a ramped up intensity). If they are a user who shows no intent of slowing down despite numerous warnings, then they should be blocked. If someone is a registered user with a long edit history, I intend to give

4690:, which has me questioning why he wants the tools so badly. Still, he really looks like a great editor, and definitely looks like admin material. Just wait a few months instead of a few weeks, work on the concerns mentioned by the opposes above, and I see no reason why you won't succeed next time. 4497:
In the context it was entirely appropriate, not to mention funny and apt, and a good commentary on the frequent abuse of IAR. "Inflammatory" does not mean "something which I don't like". An inflammatory caption would have been something like "Burn all homosexual foreign people!" or "Kill Admin X!"

surprised at that), but action can be various things including discussing and diffusing a situation. By calmly explaining something to someone, you can expand their knowledge on how things work here on Knowledge (XXG) and, hopefully, make this a better place (see Mr. Schmidt and his history above).

to write down as a record of generally accepted practice. They're not binding rules, like a US Penal Code or military code. Societal norms, however, do tend to be enforced more than rules here. In fact, I'd wager that societal norms are more important than rules. How you conduct yourself is of 100
3362:
As an example, what should I do if someone says I shouldn't apply for 5 years? Should I not apply for 5 years because it shows "impatience"? If I do apply, will people object because I "didn't listen to the community"? This seems like unnecessary instruction creep and I dismissed it because I felt
3289:
the community can't always agree. Flexibility and judgement are paramount here. The "three-month rule" seems to be a fairly well-defined consensus, as the objections above seem to reflect, and the candidate should have been more well-prepared to address that. Addendum, as a law student (you), well

Having read this thread to date, I'm sure RFA is stressful but BQZip01 is "certainly aware that appearances matter" and yet is becoming quite argumentative before even being challenged over an admin decision. "I saw little reason to wait 3 months", "you aren't the boss of me and you don't make the

Moving from neutral. Sorry, BQZip. Your very argumentative and overly procedural take on everything here has soured me on this a little bit, along with the "your not the boss of me" commentary, and this constant tone of admins being authority figures or cops, in a sense. Worship of policy for the

I think what he was saying, with regard to the police analogy, is that rules need to be clear and precise, otherwise people can't be expected to follow them; neither judges, nor juries, nor police, nor any other officer of the law should be making up rules on a whim. As a law student, I strongly

I feel this is a bit of a trick question because there are no specifics. You are asking me to speculate on what I would do in an vague situation. A concrete answer is not possible in this case. In general, I simply would do what I thought was right. If shown to be wrong, I would simply revert my

I absolutely agree that the community is the boss; and that is why those rules which are laid down by the community, in the form of policies and guidelines, are binding and should be followed. However, a convention, such as waiting 3 months between RfAs, is not binding because it does not enjoy

Eh... you cannot use a free image as fair use. Technically, that's impossible... As for the article link, sure you can do it, but it'll lead to ugly lawsuits. One case does not justify its use in US law. And if it is used as a fair use image, you would hardly use it on your userpage would you?
