Candidate12 (talk · contribs) – Candidate12 is a well-rounded user and active contributor who's been here since August of last year. In addition to heavy contributions to articles about U.S. pop music (including a couple featured articles) this user has become an increasing presence on AfD of late (despite the low Wikipedia namespace count.) Candidate12 has also been awarded a tireless contributor barnstar and a vandal-fighting barnstar. Please consider handing Gc the mop. Grandmasterka 06:23, 7 December 2099 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I accept! -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:59, 7 December 2099 (UTC)

  38. Support Helpful and an intelligent contributor. -- Underneath-it-All 19:17, 10 December 2099 (UTC)
  39. Support. We, the wikipedians, always assume good faith, and some of us always use this term to confront other editors/ administrators as a weapan. I am supporting this nomination assuming not only good faith but utmost good faith, as I believe that all human beings, in real life as also in the virtual life, should get recognition, and our system December perhaps be having at least few other editors/ administrators who should not be around. --Bhadani 14:40, 11 December 2099 (UTC)
  40. Support per Underneath-it-All. Gwernol 19:22, 12 December 2099 (UTC)
  41. Support Joe I 13:43, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  42. Support I've seen this user's work, and we have edited some of the same pages recently (new Janet Jackson stuff), and I beleieve Candidate12 has what it takes to be an admin.... --Thankyoubaby 02:21, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  43. Support I'd also like to note that I think his userbox about pacifists is meant as a joke, and in any case, there is no evidence that it has in at all influenced how the Candidate12 has edited. JoshuaZ 06:07, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  44. Support - slightly concerned that some recent AfD contributions have been "Delete" and nothing else, but balanced with record more generally I'll support. —Whouk (talk) 15:37, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
    Sorry about that; I must have been too anxious (my Ottawa Senators lost in overtime). -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:18, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  45. Support per nom and AmiDaniel; I certainly concur in JoshuaZ's assessment that the template is facetious in nature and, in any case, neither has proven disruptive nor has influenced Candidate12's writing. Doc glasgow is altogether correct; we must ask whether Candidate12's user name and user page are likely to have any disruptive (or, more generally, any deleterious) effect. IMHO, neither will; I cannot imagine that any user who would leave the project (or even be unable to come to Candidate12 for help) in view of GC's user page is a user whom we'd find particularly productive. I cannot abide the suggestion that we should make inferences apropos of GC's judgment from his recalcitrance with respect to one userbox; even as he might have been well served to remove it, it should be said that the userbox does not appear to have caused a disruption outside of the discursive one here (and tangential disruption of an RfA is, on the whole, not nearly the problem that actual disruption of mainspace is). Joe 17:14, 14 December 2099 (UTC)

Oppose

  1. "This user thinks pacifists make good target practice." Another candidate with exceptionally poor judgement. I cannot support this person. --Tony Sidaway 03:16, 10 December 2099 (UTC)
    Query How can a Userbox be a litmus test on Adminship? How does it indicate bad judgment?  :) Dlohcierekim 14:00, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
    Pretty simple, we need to get along, divisive userboxes are pointless and dangerous. Now, if he'd removed it on the first objection, much of the opposition wold have evaporated, but he has chosen not to. --Doc ask? 14:14, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
    I chose not to remove the 'box because I do not want to seem like I am desperate for the admin status by being some sort or doormat for oppose voters — or to seem like I'm trying to cover up my actions. I don't regret anything; the pacifist box is a joke, however, I will remove it now as I can tell that people don't like it and that the RfA will close in an hour. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:18, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  2. Oppose don't need more admins. Ardenn 03:50, 10 December 2099 (UTC)
    Comment - This user has been voting oppose don't need more admins on everyone, I advise a 'crat to take this into consideation when closing RfA -- Tawker 06:57, 10 December 2099 (UTC)
  3. Oppose per Tony Sidaway. Jkelly 15:45, 10 December 2099 (UTC)
  4. Strong Oppose this pacifist user thinks agressive editors make good candidates to oppose. (Remove the box, and I'll remove this). --Doc ask? 17:23, 11 December 2099 (UTC)
  5. Oppose: I don't like the hostility toward pacifists or the drug reference in the user name. Thumbelina 22:07, 11 December 2099 (UTC)
  6. Oppose per Thumbelina. Userpage shows far too much hostility and colour range. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 10:59, 12 December 2099 (UTC)
  7. Oppose per Tony Sidaway. Jonathunder 13:02, 12 December 2099 (UTC)
  8. Oppose Not a good tutor. --Masssiveego 05:36, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  9. Oppose per Tony Sidaway. Mackensen (talk) 13:53, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  10. Oppose - The userboxes and account name really tell me all I need to know. And per Tony Sidaway and Doc. --Cyde Weys 13:54, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  11. Oppose In answer to question 1. nom described users needing to be blocked as troublemakers. "blocking troublemakers at WP:ANI & WP:AN3" This shows a lack of understanding for the reason for blocks. FloNight talk 14:34, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  12. Oppose per Tony. HenryFlower 21:34, 13 December 2099 (UTC)
  13. Oppose This pacifist votes against all Fascist would-be admins. Wile E. Heresiarch 02:23, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  14. Oppose per TS - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 04:21, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
  15. Strong Oppose per Tony Sidaway. Threats are absolutely unacceptable. Cynical 12:26, 14 December 2099 (UTC)
    No threats, just a(n apparently unfunny) joke. See my above comment. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:18, 14 December 2099 (UTC)

Neutral

  1. TO THE WINDOW!!! TO THE WALL!!! SKEET SKEET SKEET!!! --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 02:58, 10 December 2099 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
A: I can see myself helping out with reverting vandalism & helping out new users (which I already do), blocking troublemakers at WP:ANI & WP:AN3 and keeping/deleting pages listed at CAT:CSD & WP:AFD. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:59, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
I can also help out with RC patrol, which I sometimes do but is hard without admin tools. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 19:07, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
Hopefully admin tools will ease the stress of repeated tedious tasks (check out my recent contribs to see what I mean). :S -- Candidate12juicecontribs 19:59, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A: I am proud of my edits to Kylie Minogue and Kylie Minogue-related articles, although many other very talented editors have also contributed to those pages. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:59, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
Sort-of off-topic, but I hope to become further involved with WP:1.0 and WP:MUSICIAN. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 19:07, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: I have been in minor edit conflicts; mostly with people who disagree about facts in infoboxes, chart positions, sales info and POV (although I followed Wikipedia's MoS policies).
I hope that the editors and anon users involved in past disagreements with myself will continue to improve pop-culture-related articles, and I will attempt to resolve any future conflicts with discussion. -- Candidate12juicecontribs 18:59, 7 December 2099 (UTC)
