He's requested adminship on the sole base that he's huggling all the time (vandal fighting)... I know that's he didn't one single constructive edit on the english Wikipedia. I mean, all he does is reverting vandals... Does he evens merits that admin flags even if it's solely based on pure vandal fighting?

Here's one drama that happened to him... Earlier this summer, Drini the steward accidently oversighted and locked his username after a slash of attack usernames against him...

What do you think?

I think this is a topic about which there is nothing of interest to be said. Wikipedia is teeming with bad administrators; one more will not change that.

Hint: they're starting to realize they're running short of admins on WP. A lot of RfAs look like senate confirmation hearings for lesbians or Latinas (or better yet, lesbian Latinas) to high appointment. It's the candidate's position to lose, not their position to win.

Nope, it's Wikipedia's loss, so long as they keep discouraging content creators, in favor of wargamers.

So far, he's got 70 support, 33 oppose, 13 neutral, and a lot of lengthy ranting about his undesirability.

Oh, btw, here's his first RFA.
And he was formerly known as Until_It_Sleeps, which went thru three, count'em three, failed RFAs.
Hasn't reached the record yet. Only tied with Everyking and a couple others, at 5 fails.

Jaranda had to do it SEVEN times before pulling it off.
TenPoundHammer did it 7 times and failed every time.
Far as I can see, those were the record RfA attempts, that I can find. Not counting the really
crazy ones who kept changing their names without disclosure.......you know who you are......
The Joy
Huggling? Surely there's a medicine for that? huh.gif

It's pretty hard to fight vandals after Rome's already burned. dry.gif

Edit: Good gravy... so many Kolorful Kiddie Kabal (or Kiddie Friends Cabal, if people are offended dry.gif ) editors on that RFA. Makes me wish I was elderly so I could throw rotten apple cores at them. Where's Alarics (T-C-L-K-R-D) with his cane!?! mad.gif

So, you're Zalgo then, huh? Or iMatthew? Or probably both...

Could you answer a question for me? Why the fuck should anyone care whether this fucker becomes a fucking admin?

He's certainly one of those editors that will probably never be an admin, and yet would probably be completely safe with tools. The way of the wiki.

Who in the name of Hell really can put in all the cock sucking, bottom wiping and gopher hammering to become an admin these days ... plus 10 FAs?

Wouldn't it make more sense just to take a leaf out of the Wikimedia's book and outsource some cheap Indians to do the work for you?

I mean, it could be quite funny really. A grad student is worth around $1,368 pa. Hire 3 and have them working 24/6 (sunday off) for you. Go for RfA in 6 months or a year. Tell them to keep their heads down, be creative with user accounts and IP address ... you could probably mature a few socks up into good place. And all the rest of the time be free to earn real money or sit back and watch your edit count rise.

Of course, the Wikimedia Foundations wants them to work for free whilst Jimmy Wales is still paid $75,000 a speaking event. But that's different. Jimmy is a white male and has higher living standards to upkeep ... like flying back to the USA from London to see his daughter at the weekend.
