 Support = 25;  Oppose = 4;  Neutral = 3 - 86.2% Result = successful: Promoted. I find this RfA quite interesting, and heartening. We have a relative newcomer who has done good work, and the community has chosen to support. Our community is a trusting one, willing to give the benefit of the doubt and to hope for the best. That's a good thing! Kanonkas: I would advise you to take the comments of the opposers and neutrals into account, and ask for help if you need it, many stand ready to give you every assistance. ++Lar: t/c 13:58, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is my pleasure to nominate Kanonkas for adminship. This user hasn't been here that long, but in this relatively short time, has shown tremendous dedication and a willingness to learn. He has over 1,500 edits[1] and is a trusted user[2]. He's active on COM:DR and, well, just check out his deleted contribs. He's a very cautious user and abuse of power is simply out the question.

I admit, I may be somewhat biased, given that I pretty much "adopted"[1][2][3] this user. But he learned from the best! Just kidding. :-) I hope the community finds him as suitable for the position as I do. Rocket000 11:01, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am honoured to be nominated by Rocket000. I accept. --Kanonkas(talk) 11:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's cool if you disagree with his opinion on the usefulness of that image, that's why we have deletion debates, but do think that makes him less suitable to be an admin? If he said to keep that image instead, we could have someone else on here opposing him for that. Let people have opinions, it's what they do based on those opinions that matter. I mean, he followed all the right procedures. He didn't request speedy deletion, which would imply he might simply delete it as an admin. Others agreed with him, and it was deleted, so it wasn't a waste of time DR. I don't see any fault here. Rocket000 12:59, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I think, an admin should first find an acceptable reason for a deletion request and not appeal on the creepy "feelings" of his buddies. I plan to request a review of this decision. Probably the coming admin can tell me the right address, where I can do that. Regards Mutter Erde 13:27, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And for the record, I think this is a crappy reason to oppose an admin. It's fine, and probably entirely necessary, to have differences in opinion here; the question is whether he would abuse admin tools to force his opinion on these matters. I don't think he would.

Indeed, it's a rubbish reason. Majorly talk 15:16, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

You may wish to use the "User Messages" gadget (under the Gadgets tab in your preferences, section "Maintenance tools"), it's really useful to quickly warn users and tag images (some of these actions are done simultaneously with one click). Patrícia msg 11:19, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
