429:. For the second question, I'm afraid I must admit that I cannot find any examples of myself citing policy (except for noting my reason in terms of 'as neologism' or 'nn'). Although when voicing opinions on xfDs I do refer to policy as I go, I have thought to actually link to or quote from one, and I understand that this was probably a bad idea. Quoting policy is not something I'm fond of as I feel it can inhibit the work of a catalyst because it can make people feel threatened by the voice of authority coming from the policies and I prefer to give my reasoning as other words. However, I can see how it's better to be more precise in my comments and I will try to do this in the future; I will put what I am already thinking onto the page. It it ever more important that I learn from this than anything else. Thirdly, I must say with complete honesty that these concerns are perfectly valid and can only offer the assurance that I will try to improve myself after the nomination has completed, and will seek help from more experienced users and my nominator when closing xfDs that are in the borderline because this will indeed be something I will have not to much experience with. I hope my answer here has explained things to you some more, and I thank JoshuaZ for bringing up this issue so that I may comment on it out in the open. 519:
communities work because everyone at the bottom wants to be at the top'. While I can understand how in conventional communities (such as message boards and online games) this works, here on Knowledge (XXG) we are very different and this statement I believe holds no meaning; the word administrator takes on it's literal meaning of an organiser, a maintainer rather than someone with authority. However, because other places see this word differently I see new users coming to Knowledge (XXG) and finding that administrators exist and that there are quite a few of them, and thinking that it is something like sites they have come from before - and I don't blame them themselves, of course, because they are only acting from their experience. Because administrators on sites like those I have mentioned above are often the founders and financiers of them, they hold a different degree of social and technical power: (benevolent) dictators and developers if compared with our power structure. So we have a psychological issue with people subconciously seeing administrators as those with higher levels of influence and power, even after reading their technical abilities. The document
161:, and I strongly believe that by empowering people with information the world can be made a better place. Wikimedia exists to bring the sum total of human knowledge to the world and every person in it and this is a most honourable goal for everyone here on the projects. However, power can be reckless and through our community I see us bringing wisdom to it and this we can then spread as the organisation grows. I enjoy contributing to Knowledge (XXG) and feel that as an administrator I would be able to do more to develop the information here and build on the community structure already established, and I feel that I have enough experience of working here to be productive and trustworthy. But I leave that up to you to judge, of course - I will appreciate all comments made here. I would like to thank all those who have got me here, and my nominator who considers me worthy of the tools. Thank you. β€” 524:
that I didn't mention I was a sysop unless it was obviously necessary; for example I may note on a talkpage that I fight vandalism, but then not mention that I block repeat offenders unless it was specifically asked. If the user is then surprised that I am a sysop, that's not necessarily a bad thing - they will hopefully have gained an idea of how an administrator should be presenting themselves from my behaviour and will hopefully treat others in the same way as they continue to contribute. However, I think that sometimes administrators can be too eager to flex their abilities when being a catalyst will help. I know I keep mentioning this in this nomination, but it really does help; one point mentioned on the page I link to on it is that catalysts don't use or wear authority when they don't need it, which is demonstrated in the guideline of dropping ops on the

his talk would be more appropriate, thereby freeing the channel from harassment. As far as I know, he had been kicked (and possibly banned) but I feel I wrapped the situation up nicely. Another incident occured when the English Wiktionary was being attacked by a rogue sysop. I was in #wikimedia-stewards at the time (I often am to try and help out where possible) and I started asking polite questions to work out what was going on. Users were contradicting each other but I was able to dig through and find the truth. By this time a developer had removed the sysop's access and a steward had arrived on the scene; I tried to help him with the information I was gathering and the situation was eventually resolved. I hope that I've shown the power of catalysts, for I feel that they are something that can be applied to many aspects of life. β€”
1736:, for now. You might not necessarily do harm, but there's really no way to know based on your edits. I browsed through your article edits and it seems that you did indeed list every one of your larger article contributions in question 2 here. The rest are automated reversions and adding templates. In your wikipedia space contributions, I looked at around 30 comments in (afd) discussions and they were ALL in the vein of "delete per nom" or "keep per above", with nothing added to the actual discussion. Based on that it would lead me to believe you would close any discussion based on a 'vote' count, and since there's no evidence to the contrary, I must oppose. Please take the time to edit the encyclopedia and try again in a few months, thanks. - 1788:
realize it it makes me question his knowledge of other areas. His AfD experience seems to be contained to a few binges where he went through and quickly mass voted on, at times, several pages per minute. These "binges" were on August 11, June 26, June 18, June 14, and June 1. The biggest flaw AfD has in my opinion is that most of the "votes" are entered by fly-by voters like Xyrael who think that it's better to vote on 101 AfD's in 3.5 hrs (June 14) rather than keep to those where he can offer meaningful input. I looked and couldn't find any meaningful AfD contributions at all; most were simply "Delete per nom" but even the rare instances where he decided to say something further usually wasn't very helpful.
449:. They posted attack messages on my simple userpage and at the time I don't think I noticed since I didn't log on very often, but other users were kind enough to revert. As time went on the attacks got heavier and I put in a request for full protection. I realise now that it would have been more appropriate for semi-protection, but at the time I was still relatively new. An administrator was kind enough to deal with the request very quickly and my page was frozen. A month or so later I asked for it to be unprotected as it was getting out of date. On reflection, I realise that perhaps it would have been better to post the request on 918:
nice track record of vandalism prevention, as well. Having said that, Xyrael has spent very little time creating and writing articles, which is the primary purpose of a Wikipedian. Also, a close look at his *fD participation indicates that the candidate brings little to the discussion. If the candidate did not seem to exude such an excitement about wikis, a trustworthy nature, a level-headed demeanor, and an eagerness to help make Knowledge (XXG) a better place, I would firmly oppose the request, but I cannot in good faith do so with the aforementioned character traits so visible in the candidate
471:
confirmed what the policy said so that I was able to express in my own words to the user what the situation was. It started when I reverted a !vote on a article move debate that was made by an anonymous user when the policy states that this is not permitted, only comments may be made by them. The user took offence at the edit summary which contained 'VandalProof', and I regret that I didn't think to switch to my browser and revert manually. However, I do not think this was the root of the problem. The user
476:
another editor got involved to confirm what I said and quoted more literally from the policy. Although there is unfortunately little evidence left, I feel that I worked hard to be polite and courteous to the user and that we were eventually able to impress the relevant policy on the user in the politest possible way. Dispute resolution is an important part of Knowledge (XXG) and is something that I wish to get more involved in, whether this nomination suceeds or not.
1759:
that they will be careful to research the policies relevant to any new area that they decide they want to enter. Xyreal's main specializations are vandal-fighting and dispute resolution, and I believe he knows the relevant policies quite well. In addition, he seems like the kind of person who would carefully research policies related to a Knowledge (XXG) activity before engaging in it. I asked Xyrael and he said he is quite dilagent in doing this. --
1749:
would have to be well-researched and well thought out. This leads me to believe you aren't entirely familiar with the policies. The lack of normal edits also bothers me- I don't believe that a user should have full administrator privileges unless they have made hundreds of edits to a variety of articles. They should be fully exposed to revert wars, edit wars, user conflicts, etc. --
1818:(listed above in the answer to JoshuaZ) is especially puzzling: "Possible merge into area's main area, if this exists". The "main area" was in fact bluelinked in the nomination (as is the suggestion to merge for which Xyrael takes authorship). This leaves a very poor impression of Drive-by-AfDing and a general lack of interest in what this encylcopedia 333:) that spilled over onto user talk pages. Conflict is always going to be around on a project with so many folk involved, but I firmly believe that we can make a difference by using our common sense and thinking about what is best for everyone for building the encyclopedia, keeping people contributing and thinking of our eventual goals. 957:
Sure, I didn't mean to give a skewed description of your involvement. I'm aware that Where started the Test Wiki, but I am impressed that the Test Wiki community has entrusted you with stewardship (even though I think you advocated for Where) and also that you are hosting it with your own resources.
354:
I would hope to be a catalyst in every non-templated communication I post on talk pages, but I feel that my greatest successes have been on IRC. 'OnkleAdolf' was attacking #wikimedia-commons a month or so ago and by talking to him over a /query I was able to get him to leave for another network where

he votes on a borderline case as "Weak delete" and rather than explain why he thinks it ought to be deleted, he says "things like this have been left before I believe" -- not even bothering to find any specific examples, as apparently he feels his time is better spent doing fly-by votes on some more
336:
The notion of catalysts as a useful sort to have around is one not mooted here very often, but it is a powerful idea, when you look at many things here, you can, if you look for them, find the catalyst folk behind the scenes. Can you give some examples of where you have been a catalyst for change or

Incidentally, in case anyone was missing the checklist - I have checked all the basics are okay. I've also given some fairly extensive admin coaching sessions on IRC, and will continue to make sure Xyrael knows what to do as an admin if any help is needed. So, if you agree let's get another admin to

I think that is a good point to raise. However, almost nobody knows all of the policies in all areas of Knowledge (XXG). For instance, a minority of Wikipedians probably know all of the nuances in fair use policy. What is important is that Wikipedians know the policies relavent to what they do, and

917:
My own experience with Xyrael is limited, but I like how he has played a major part in getting the Test Wiki up and running, as it gives Wikipedians and others an expanded playground to try stuff out, rather than relegating all tests to the sandbox Knowledge (XXG) provides. The candidate also as a

As a person, Xyrael is kind, altruistic, and always tries to do the right thing. As a Wikipedian, he has contributed around the board. We need more administrators, and Xyrael has shown a commitment to Knowledge (XXG) and a strength of character that indicates that he is more than ready for the job.
453:
and ask an admin to warn the user; I was not aware of this process at the time. However, I feel that by looking back on it like this I am able to learn more about the policy. If I had been an admin then or if a similar situation were to arise again, I probably would have semi-protected the page and

1787:
per above and review of unhelpful, "per nom" AfD contributions, I am convinced that Xyrael does not understand that AfD is meant to be a discussion to reach consensus and not a poll. The already disastrous AfD process cannot afford an admin who doesn't understand this, and that he doesn't already
