Administrator Candidacy Questionnaire

Why would I be a good Administrator?

I have time, and am very good at minor edits and finding spam. I also have a thorough knowledge of MediaWiki, MySQL, and Linux (though those may not be as useful), and have Mac OS X experience. I spend almost every waking hour near a computer.

Supporting Evidence

Public Q&A

  • Q: Bombcar, sorry but I'm not going to troll through your contribs to see the good outshining the bad.
Lots of contribs makes you a good editor - not an automatically good admin. where in all that, did you discuss, negotiate, reach agreement with other contributors? Where did you argue points of how a wiki is meant to work to get your change made... or even better, come around and see that the other change made more sense then change the flow of your work to support the newly adopted way that the article/series was headed?

  • A: My changes are usually minor; I'm much better at finding things like spam and removing them, or fixing spelling errors and things like that. I'm good at boring rote work. Perhaps I would be better simply as an editor. --Bombcar 02:55, 24 February 2010 (UTC)


  • Q: You made the following claim...
I added "The shoe is making a plaintive gesture." to Scamps.

Um... not according to the article history - or did you collaborate with "Rusty" when the article was first posted? Could you comment on this apparent contradiction, pls?--Albedo 06:17, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

  • A: Aaaah! I have an useless long-term memory. I changed buildingdestroyer. I apologize and will fix the above. It was mainly a joke. --Bombcar 02:55, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
