themselves just how much has to go into
Knowledge in order for it to continue to be the awesome source of information it is today. It is often that I explain just how much vandalism Knowledge experiences each day (and each hour in some cases). Even when it is quiet in my apartment and I'm sitting alone at my computer, I feel reassured by messages on my Talk page of people thanking me for reverting specific instances of vandalism (

should sort of be like being a Roman dictator: the people who do it best are pressed into service and grumble about it, looking to get rid of the power as soon as possible. Some people give extra points for self-noms, and some take points away for self-noms. Again, this is not meant to be any denigration, but I, personally, feel that self-nomination with relatively short time on project is something that I, personally, oppose.

Sorry. I in no way wish to insult you, belittle your contributions, or express a judgment on your work or character, and so I was trying to outline my own reasoning on the RFA process. I also don't want to suggest that anyone else needs to follow my reasoning on this, but I feel like being an Admin
145:
Easy one. 2 months is plenty long enough to prove yourself; 2000+ is plenty of edits; enthusiasm is important so relatively new editors should be made admins quickly; editing articles is more important than talking about them (this is meant to be an encyclopaedia, not a chat room or message board);
917:
A. Although there is no specific article I am particularly proud of, I find a sense of satisfaction in every one of my contributions to
Knowledge. As a college student, many of my peers are actually a bit amazed that I am "so active" on Knowledge. Usually right after they say that, they realize
92:
I consider myself familiar with
Knowledge policies and methods and I plan on using the admin priviledge only when I am confident I am making the right decision. Although pages can be undeleted, I would prefer to never have any pages I deleted come into that situation. I also look forward to the

71:) – I have been an active contributor to Knowledge for almost two months. I realize that some active editors on RfA will Oppose due to this single fact (or others based upon their own criteria), but I invite you to evaluate my relatively short history for what it is worth.
904:), as an admin I will be expected to be active especially on the *fD pages. WP:AN/I will also get a higher spot on my list of daily tasks. I am already active on WP:AIAV and am very active on #wikipedia-en-vandalism (which is perhaps the reason for only 26 edits to AIAV).
900:
I will remain diligent in countering vandalisms, managing un-free and untagged images, and dealing with candidates for speedy deletion (in both the article and image namespace). Although not as active on pages such as RfA and AfD (see my To-Do List

210:
and I hope the RfA succeeds, although it may fall victim to "time-ism" on the part of other voters. I think 2 months is just about enough time, and coupled with the tireless editing, I think Zsinj would make a good admin.
127:
Because admin should be no big deal, right? ......AND I've run into Zsinj around and I believe he'd do a good job. God forbid a good editor gets some additional tools to make the project better. PS: first support, yay!

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve
Knowledge in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

270:, lacks of article talk edits, project and project talk edits. I believe you are too new now. However, you may try again in July when you have more edits. --
313:
Thanks for the comments. I usually make a point to say something if it needs saying. As far as edits per month, it is not, yet, the end of the month. ;-) --
474:
514:. Too new. Maybe if a user was incomprehensibly stellar, I would vote to support - but in that case it wouldn't have to be a self-nomination. Sorry.
