Template:Editnotices/Page/Wikipedia:Requests for adminship

Hi, and thanks for offering your services as an administrator or nominator. Please read the Wikipedia page on Administrators, as well as Wikipedia's Guide to requests for adminship and Advice for RfA candidates pages before proceeding with a nomination.

The administrator toolset is a senior-level user right that is not for new, moderate, proficient, or even somewhat-experienced users. Candidates who are successful have usually made thousands of edits to articles and housekeeping tasks. Administrators need to know and understand how Wikipedia handles deletion and copyright concerns, and other policies, and they must be able to show that they can exercise sound judgment in complex situations.
