Wiktionary:Votes/sy-2009-11/User:Yair rand for admin

• Nomination: I hereby nominate Yair rand as a local English Wiktionary Administrator. He does great entry work, as well as great vandal-fighting work, and he would use the tools to their fullest potential. I believe that he has the correct temperment to become an administrator, and overall, I think he would be a great administrator. Razorflame 07:24, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

• Acceptance: I accept, but I still intend to use the delete template except where I am absolutely certain, as I have made multiple mistakes regarding whether an entry should be deleted before.

7. Support cautiously. He'll be our third admin-Jew after msh210 and Ruakh. I suspect they are conspiring to take over Wiktionary. --Vahagn Petrosyan 22:29, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
8. Support EncycloPetey 22:31, 22 November 2009 (UTC) Like Davilla, I have some concerns about the length of time spent editing here, but I'm more inclined to support based on the work I've seen. --EncycloPetey 22:31, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
9. Support Volants 14:12, 24 November 2009 (UTC) all good work
10. Support LOL @ Vahagn. Where does it say he's Jewish anyway? XD 50 Xylophone Players talk 14:36, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

    Vahagn probably either figured it out from my name or looked at my wp page. :) --Yair rand 17:35, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

11. Support Ivan Štambuk 18:18, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

14. Support Rising Sun 20:48, 2 December 2009 (UTC) I hope I voted in time

1. Oppose. Certainly this is nothing personal, but this user is still a bit too new to the WM community. DAVilla 06:38, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
2. Oppose, per DAVilla and that I honestly just haven't seen this user around enough for to be able to support him as an admin yet. However, in due time, maybe. --Neskaya ^{contribs – talk?} 20:57, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
3. Oppose - Amgine/^talk 18:28, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
4. Oppose. Far too pushy, too disorganised, too many unilateral decisions, too much acting without consensus or real support, in the Vote for a new Wiktionary logo.--Richardb 10:09, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

1. Abstain — opiaterein — 17:03, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
2. Abstain The uſer hight Bogorm converſation 18:17, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
3. Abstain too few edits but since I don't know him well, I don't want to vote against either. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:21, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Comment The last 3 supports and last 2 abstains are invalid due to closing time are they not? 50 Xylophone Players talk 19:49, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Why? To-day is 2 December, the vote ends in 24:00 and there are 4 more hours left. It is not 00:00 and I thought this is the difference between those two designations, is it not? The uſer hight Bogorm converſation 19:53, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

There is no 24:00 is there? If it means 00:00 then yes, that was several hours ago. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:55, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

24:00 can only logically be concluded to be the minute after 23:59 which is unambiguously at the end of today (though I would encourage the use of 23:59 instead) Conrad.Irwin 20:12, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Passes 14–4–3 (77¾%).​—msh210℠ 17:15, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
