Riordan Wiki:Requests for Adminship

This is the page where formal requests for administratorship are recorded and archived. An explanation of what sysop rights are can be found below the list of admins at Project:Administrators.

Currently, requests for adminship are open.

Requirements
There are no concrete requirements for a user to be an admin. However, admins will usually:
 * Have a very strong history of contributions (including the content namespace), though quality is more important than quantity
 * Be trusted by the community
 * Have no history of serious blocks due to vandalism or sockpuppetry

Procedures

 * Users must have 50 edits and be a regular contributor for a month to be able to vote or nominate.
 * Users who have been absent for extended periods of time (3 months or more) will be considered as "new users" for the purposes of RfA and must make 50 edits and be contributor for a further month before voting.
 * Users must have rollback rights to be nominated for adminship.

Stage 1: Nominating

 * 1) Users may nominate themselves for adminship.
 * 2) Users may not nominate each other (e.g. A can't nominate B and B nominate A in the same RfA)
 * 3) There will only be one request at a time. A decision will be made on the current request (change/no change) before the next request is considered.

Stage 2: Voting

 * 1) Users may vote in support, be neutral, or oppose the adminship nomination. Users must provide a reason behind their position.
 * 2) Everyone's vote counts as one vote. Admins do not hold extra power.
 * 3) The vote will last for two weeks.
 * 4) Bureaucrats may close votes early at their discretion if the applicant is obviously unsuitable with no chance of succeeding. Voters may also request this if they believe the applicant has no chance of succeeding.
 * 5) At the end of the two weeks, the active Bureaucrat will determine whether consensus has been reached. This means that admin requests require at least a two-thirds support rate to pass. Strength of argument is more important than the number of votes.

I may not fit all the criteria but I have memorized all of the books, I have created another wiki, and I'm not saying that y'all have to make me an admin... I just haven't been one for a wiki other than mine. Shadowviper 20:02, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

I believe I qualify to be an administrator. I have been helping this wiki for about a year, I exceed all requirements by far, and I also have rollback rights. This wiki currently has only four administrators (many have more) and they are not always here to help. I think another administrator could benefit to this wiki, and I am a good person to give the rank to. Thebiguglyalien (talk &bull; contribs) 19:59, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
