GuildWiki:Requests for adminship/Gimmethegepgun

Gimmethegepgun (talk &bull; contribs)
I spend the majority of my time on GuildWiki watching Special:Recentchanges, and am often the first to respond to vandals and repair the damage they cause. During the long stretches of the day that administrators are on, while I am, the vandalism tends to increase. Adminship would allow me to span this gap and respond much more quickly in order to prevent violators from continuing. --Gimmethegepgun 03:45, 15 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Being the one that nominated me, I accept :P --Gimmethegepgun 03:47, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Unless Adminship turns people evil, this guy is one of the ones who usually fixes the spam as best a non-admin can. Definate support [[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png]]  Entrea Sumatae  03:50, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Great candidate, surprised he isn't already. Lord Belar 04:00, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) This is obviously a biased vote on my part, but speaking as objectively as I can, Gimmethegepgun is both extremely vigilant and a dedicated, experienced fighter of vandals who is often in the vanguard of users to fix such violations early and fast. I cannot deny how useful this is, in making my own duties easier and also in (as noted) "plugging the time gap". However, just so my support doesn't stem from a single facet of this user, I must also say that he has been around for a good amount of time and has been through enough GWiki history to be knowledgeable of how things work around here. Checking his contributions, he knows most of the policies and enforces them constantly, as well as S&F and a variety of other tasks. All in all I believe he is a qualified candidate that would perform well in office. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 04:03, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) Definately.--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 20:04, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) Definately. He helped me out on my first day in wiki. Ofc, i pickeed up the wikicode quite quickly [quick leearning ftw], i aspire to ask to beecome an admin onee day, but i dont think I'd be ready, which is why i havn't filed a request. but I think that Gimmethegepgun deserves it ^_^ Warwick (Talk) (Contr.) 20:16, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * lol, that time was funny. I forgot about the Editing guide and ended up spending over 10 minutes typing pretty much the entire links section onto his page :/ --Gimmethegepgun 20:19, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * hehe, i keep that there for quick reference.. i also copy+paste it onto "Wikinewb"'s userpages. =P Warwick (Talk) (Contr.) 20:21, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) He supports use of creative but less effective builds. --76.2.20.255 04:20, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * How does the build he supports (or does not support) have anything to do with the roles and responsibilities of adminship??? -User:PanSola (talk to the [[Image:follower of Lyssa.png]]) 19:00, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It's Teh Uber Pwnzer's IP address, used as an (extremely immature) retort to my discussion with him here. I'd strike out the vote seeing how it has nothing at all to do with adminship, but seeing as its my nomination someone else should do it --Gimmethegepgun 19:43, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Doesn't matter. Won't get taken into account when the decisions made anyway. Lord of all tyria 20:00, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but it's still very immature --Gimmethegepgun 20:01, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
