- Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve StrategyWiki in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for participants:
- 1. What sysop chores have you been helping with?
- A: Mainly cleanup and patrolling vandalism. I've also done a fair bit of everything else too :)
- 2. Of your articles or contributions to StrategyWiki, are there any with which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- A: The featured guides system currently in place was largely designed by me. I also have coded quite a few extensions (only one of which is in use here at the moment though) and have worked a lot on making the IRC seem more accessible and user-friendly than it was before by setting up the PJIRC Gateway and running a bot with a help-database.
- 3. How do you anticipate helping StrategyWiki above and beyond your current responsibilities as a sysop?
- A: I would help mainly with the backend of the software in the filesystem implementing cool new features and improving/updating existing ones. However, that won't stop or hinder me from continuing cleanup and other tasks as well as contributing to guides. I would also help in integrating abxy and strategywiki to a greater extent so that both sites can benefit.
- General comments
Please keep criticism constructive and polite.
Discussion
- Unless some of the bureaucrats bring up some compelling arguments against him, I see no reason to oppose.--DukeRuckleyTalk | Contribs 21:54, 13 May 2008 (CDT)
- I support Skizzerz because I think he is a fantastic member of the community, and has helped with numerous extensions that have benefited the site. He has also been a big supporter of myself, so I would like to return the favor. Having said that, I also feel that Prod's comments have a lot of merit. At first, I didn't know how I wanted to vote because I didn't want to be unsupportive of Skizzerz, but I also didn't want to blanket push any sysop to bcrat. If Skizzerz feels that he can do a better job as a bcrat, then I am simply choosing to trust his judgment. Procyon (Talk) 09:16, 14 May 2008 (CDT)
