Sean Black

Final (56/1/0) ended 01:36 November 26 (UTC)

Sean Black ( talk · contribs) – Sean has been here since June 11 [1]. Looking at that diff, one can see that his very first edit was reverting vandalism, and he did it correctly, and he used an edit summary even. This first edit showed good potential, and from what I've seen, he's been great. He's got 1949 edits as of me typing this up (please don't say 'will support at 2000' it's rather pointless ;-) Let's go over some statistics: last 500 edits (as of 00:33 November 18 UTC) have been between the end of November 1 and November 18, so I believe he passes the activity test. He is JUST shy (983 as of typing this) of 1,000 article edits, he has over 400 talkspace edits, and he has over 350 Wikipedia edits. I believe he's past all those bars. Sean works on everything from articles to welcoming newbies to RC Patrol to complimenting people. I think he's earned the extra tools, and proven he's to be trusted.

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: Wow. I'm shocked, but I will accept. This is an honor, and I do hope that I can be trusted by the community. Thank you again.-- Sean| Bla ck 02:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC) reply

Questions for the candidate
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 believe that deleting speedies, closing AfDs, assisting with backlog ( WP:RM, WP:CP, ect) will be high on the list, but I don't anticipate blocking too much (Titoxd and Curps are better at it, no reason to step on their toes), although I'll do so if necessary. Basically, I'll help out however I can!-- Sean| Bla ck 02:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC) reply
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. Tough one. Many of my edits are minor, tweaking little things here and there, but I think I did a good job on Jason Voorhees, Friday the 13th (film series), which I heavily cleaned up as part of an ongoning project to improve horror film related articles. Critters (film series) was something I picked from WP:RA, and I feel that that's a significantly good article for a third rate Gremlins rip-off :), and Pip and Jane Baker, which I was surprised didn't exist before. However, I'm most proud of the diversity of the articles I've edited- everything from The Brain of Morbius to Hamas to Galvatron to John Kerry. I think that I have both greatly increased my knowledge of the world through WP, and hopefully, others knowledge of it as well. Additionally, I'm very proud of those new users that I helped learn ways of WP- It's more than just welcomes, it's answering what many of us percieve as "dumb questions" kindly, honestly, and openly.-- Sean| Bla ck 02:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC) reply
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.Mostly no, as I tend to avoid contentious areas. However, I was part of a nasty edit war at List of minor Doctor Who villains which I felt I dealt with well. Additionally, I recently started editing Political views of Lyndon LaRouche and related articles in an attempt to broaden my Wikipedian perspective: as most know, these articles have a history (including two ArbCom decisions), but I feel that the editing has been mostly civil, with less POV pushers and far more good faith concerns about neutrality and original research, and I think that I have handled it well.-- Sean| Bla ck 02:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC) reply
