Ancheta Wis (talk · contribs) – Ancheta Wis has been here since January of 2004, and has racked up nearly 10,000 edits. Wow. I can't believe I'm nominating him, because even I can't believe he's not an admin already! Great work with portals, categories, making information more useable - I have every confidence that he'll be a fine addition to admin ranks. BDAbramson T 01:32, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  4. Extreme I-wasn't-even-trying-to-beat-the-nominator support. Looks like a reasonable enough user, liked his answers to the questions, and, well, adminship ain't a big deal, right? fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:53, 23 December 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 anticipate Main Page work and changes to Selected anniversaries; before access was restricted to sysops I used to work on Selected anniversaries a lot. --Ancheta Wis 09:40, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. See the articles to which I have contributed that were Featured on the Main Page. I came to Wikipedia to work on Scientific method; the History of science is another article which I hope to help become a Featured article. --Ancheta Wis 09:40, 22 December 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. DotSix was the worst. Fortunately DotSix is now blocked. I ran a process of discovery which aided in the block. The standard procedures are actually the best way to deal with editor-stress. --Ancheta Wis 09:40, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
