User:Equinox for admin

  • Nomination: I hereby nominate Equinox (talk • contribs) as a local English Wiktionary Administrator. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 00:42, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Vote starts: as soon as the nomination is accepted

    • Languages: en, fr-1
    • Timezone: UTC/GMT (UK time)
  • Thanks. I accept. Because there has been some controversy about me, I am going to bore everyone with a recap of my history here. I discovered the site in mid-2008. I was originally nominated for admin by a Wonderfool sockpuppet , which failed; shortly afterwards I was nominated by User:msh210, which passed: . I continued to do a lot of work on Wiktionary for about three years, including quite intensive vandal-zapping. In mid-2012 there was a huge amount of damaging vandalism by a guy called Luciferwildcat (and various other names), and nobody was dealing with it, even after being alerted, and it made me crazy and I drunkenly deleted the main page and caused some other trouble; this naturally got me de-adminned (but not blocked, impressively). In the subsequent year I have continued with my normal creating, editing, and fixing. I am definitely a jerk sometimes, but probably no more than everyone else, and I do genuinely love Wiktionary and want to make it better, and I have a pretty compelling history of adding some thousands (or 10,000s) of missing English words, sometimes developing specialist software to do this. Also SemperBlotto may kindly vouch for me as a good vandal-patroller. Okay I'm gonna shut up now. Thanks for reading this huge paragraph, and thanks for your honest vote in whichever direction.

Support

  1. Support and thanks for the links of historical interest. I find it funny that the community trolled you more than the real WF sock(s). —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:17, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
    Wait a sec, I just realised that I'm supporting my own vote, which I've been called out for previously. Please interpret this instead as a proxy vote for WF, who is not allowed to vote any more but has expressed his clear wish for Equinox's readminification. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:19, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
    I think it's quite fine to support your own vote; many editors either prefer not to, or else prefer to be explicit about it (by writing "Support (as nom)" or whatnot), but I don't think there's a rule about it. By contrast, I think there really is a rule against voting by permabanned users, so if you'd really like your vote interpreted that way, please <s> it out. :-P   —RuakhTALK 21:53, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
    To be specific, it's a symbolic gesture to please RF & Co. Not like it makes any difference to the outcome of this vote, of course. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:44, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  2. Very strong support. Damn LWC caused us to lose one year of Equinox’s great admin work. — Ungoliant (Falai) 02:42, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  3. Support. I find it unfair that I kept my admin powers after all my shenanigans and this awesome user lost them for deleting that useless mainpage :) --Vahag (talk) 09:28, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  4. Support I'm continually impressed by the steady quality contributions on Special:Recent changes.--Haplology (talk) 13:34, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  5. Support. —RuakhTALK 14:23, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  6. Support I was going to put a statement here, but I couldn't think of one that would fit well here, so just have my emphatic yes. -- Liliana • 14:42, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
  7. Support --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:17, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
  8. Support Incredibly hard-working, reliable contributor. -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 03:56, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
  9. Support — Saltmarshαπάντηση 06:24, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
  10. Support. Absolutely. --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:04, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
  11. Support. Btw, you complain that you weren't blocked for deleting the main page, but I note with amusement that the person who deleted the main page over on the 'pedia didn't even get desysoped, AFAICT. :b - -sche (discuss) 05:27, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Oppose

  1. Oppose . Because he's already a rollbacker and I think that's enough, given he once deleted the main page. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:40, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
