See existing administrators.

To view previous nomination votes, see NSwiki:New admins.

Please use wikipedia:Requests for adminship as a guide for nominating and formatting.

Most importantly, an admin should have thorough knowledge of NSwiki and should visit meta pages often. It is preferred if the admin has had a large amount of edits (In the top 20% of editors), and contributes on a relatively regular basis.

As the Wikipedia guide linked to above indicates, only users who are registered and logged in can vote and/or be nominated.

If you don't know whether to nominate a user as a sysop or as a bureaucrat, go with "sysop" by default. If a user has been doing well as a sysop, then nominate him/her as a "bureaucrat."

Nominations for sysopship

Note: Nominations have to be accepted by the user in question. If you nominate a user, please also leave a message on their talk page and ask them to reply here if they accept the nomination.

Knootoss (10/4/0)

Granted provisionally by Goobergunch|? 20:17, 7 Oct 2004 (GMT)

I'd recommend Knootoss --Frisbeeteria 01:55, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Heh. Thanks ^_^;;;; - Knoot 08:44, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Support

  1. I support. He's active and a good contributor. Crimmer 12:42, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  2. Knoot accepts the nomination.
  3. What Crimmer said, very active and very helpful edits. Also very helpful on IRC. --Goobergunchia 16:34, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  4. Meh. My vote belongs in the tally for Knoot. --Frisbeeteria 18:04, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  5. Def votes for. --Defaultia 23:34, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  6. Diablo_NL votes for Knootoss. He has so far done a great job. And if he screws it up I can always go by and punish him. ;) Diablo NL
    Edits by User:82.156.36.49 count towards validity of User:Diablo_NL's vote. --Goobergunch|? 23:23, 10 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  7. I support Knootoss. If the CACE clique is so worried about his free-market bias, why don't they nominate one of their own, like Xiukang, for sysop? Syskeyia 6:39, 10 Oct 2004 (Central Time)
  8. Go Knootoss!. Iuthia 00:30, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  9. K-stan says "yea" to Knoot, even if he is Dutch.  :) K-stan 7:53, 10 Oct 2004 (EST)
  10. The Serene^Union gives a thumbs up to Knootoss. Kaenei
    Only other edit by this user is on NSwiki:Logo candidates - however, it takes a good deal of time and effort to make a logo. --Goobergunch|? 00:06, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Oppose

  1. I am against; K is not neutral and incapable of being neutral. --Pudding
  2. As much as I am a friend of this individual, I would think it may be wiser to find a less controversial player who's made it a point never to cross anyone on purpose. --Galdago
  3. This would alienate a great many people from NSwiki. No. Rehochipe
    Apart from a few political enemies (who I've yet to see as active NSwiki contributors), who exactly would this alienate? That's an awfully large position stated in awfully few words. - Frisbeeteria 22:54, 10 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  4. I can see, actually, whom this would alienate and discourage from becoming productive contributors to the NS Wiki project. Nothing personal, but Knootoss is a nation that not many would consider seperable from nation-based biases. I find I must vote no.TJHairball

Neutral

Comments/Questions

• Knoot: Well, I'm not sure how to count the votes here (I'd say Frisbeeteria counts as 'pro' too. The lesson of Florida: when in doubt, count the votes in your favour ;) Anyway I'll just wait untill people come and complain about my inherent bias and incompetence.

Meh. I don't count the nomination as a vote, but I'm for letting Frisbeeteria vote - when I nominated Defaultia, I immediately voted "1. Goobergunchia As in nomination". --Goobergunchia 16:34, 4 Oct 2004 (GMT)

You are too kind ^_^ *is a happy elf] now*


• Since it seems particularly pointless to wait a proper seven days, I'm granting Knoot provisional sysop status now - however, the vote will remain open for the full seven-day period and this status can be revoked if there's a shift in the voting margin. --Goobergunch|? 20:17, 7 Oct 2004 (GMT)


• I'm not sure I'm really keen on the idea of someone who can pointedly indicate on his Jolt Forum Profile that his occupation is "emotionally harassing SeOCC" is the kind of individual that should be moderating a site where you're probably going to be having a lot of contribution by the CACE community, of which myself and SeOCC are a part. There's a clear wedge between much of the CACE and former SATO/WBO entourage that, should either of the polarized members of those parties become moderators of the NSwiki side, might compromise an impartial view of the NationStates world should any one of them get... shall we say... as "childish" as that profile entry? --Galdago

Frisbeeteria (6/0/2)

Frisbeeteria has been one of the most helpful members of NSwiki, having re-categorized, infoboxed, and just been really darn good at getting articles spiffy in the trifecta of the main, NSwiki, and Category namespaces. --Goobergunch|? 23:49, 10 Oct 2004 (GMT)

I accept nomination gratefully, thanks. -- Frisbeeteria 23:51, 10 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Support

  1. As in nomination --Goobergunch|? 23:49, 10 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  2. Despite the fact that he killed my dreams of an omniscient weapons database... I vote for Fris. He knows his way around, and he didn't go postal over me putting up 20 pages an hour.  :) K-stan 23:59, 10 October 2004 (UTC)
  3. Goobergunch reminds me that it is legal to vote for oneself. - Frisbeeteria 00:03, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  4. I think he would make an excellent Sysop. Great contributions. Active, intelligent and cool-headed. Thumbs up. Only makes sense. Knoot 00:09, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  5. Has my support Vrak 00:23, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)
  6. Agreed. -- Crimmer 02:42, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Oppose

Neutral

  1. I have no objections to Frisbee at this point in time. TJHairball
  2. Given I don't know this player, I also have no opinion on their attendant nomination. --Galdago

Comments/Questions

  • Just a request - could people please remember to update the vote tally when they vote? Thanks. --Goobergunch|? 00:12, 11 Oct 2004 (GMT)
