Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Haemo

The following discussion is preserved as an archive of a successful request for adminship. Please do not modify it.

Haemo

(114/2/0); Originally scheduled to end 06:05,

As Shalom notes below in his co-nomination, Haemo has familiarized himself with several areas in the project space with which administrators ought to be familiar. His edits to the project space have shown him to have a great understanding of Wikipedia's various policies. Haemo has become a well-rounded editor, contibuting to many important areas of the project. If the community responds by giving Haemo the administrative tools, Wikipedia will be a better place.

Co-nomination from Shalom

Haemo joined Wikipedia in 2005 and has been an active editor since January 2007. I

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Thank you, I accept. --Haemo 06:05, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?

A: As an editor, I've tried to have have as broad a range of experiences as possible, going where there are problems, or backlogs. I would like to keep the same spirit of expansiveness going when I am an admin; going where my experience and expertise can be of assistance, while learning a few new things in the process.

Right now, I can see myself helping to

administrator intervention board

show.

I have also tried to have a broad and open-minded experience in the different

consensus

in the debate was, and making an appropriate closure decision.

Beyond that, I think I would be an asset in helping with many of the backlogged pages which are causing stress to editors due to backlogs; for instance, I know that the

copyright violations

. While these pages have not been my primary focus currently, due to the limited amount of help I can provide without admin tools, I have some experience with them already and would be able to help out more if the community accepts me.

2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?

A:

As Shalom mentioned, for a while I was having a bit of a puzzle deciding where I fit in on Wikipedia. However, I got some good advice from other editors, and now feel that I've surpassed that hurdle — in fact, I discovered that (what I feel to be) my best contributions to Wikipedia come about as a result of interactions with other users.

For instance, I greatly value helping

good article status. While all credit goes to Hildanknight and Goh wz

for those articles, I still feel that the experience I gained, quality content I helped with, and fun I had really rank highly among my contributions.

I hope that you will find me trustworthy as a administrator candidate, and I look forward to your constructive comments, questions, and criticism! In addition, I would like to thank Shalom, and Pablo for their nominations and kind comments.

Optional question from J.L.W.S. The Special One

4. Why is it important for admins to have experience in article writing?

A: I know I've discussed this with you before, but article writing, and editing is important to an administrator because Wikipedia is, at its heart,

not a battleground

— all of our policies and guidelines go towards the central premise of making the encyclopedia function properly, and effectively. Articles form the backbone of this process; without articles, the encyclopedia ceases to be. Other tasks, like counter-vandalism, deletion debates, and maintainance serve to preserve the level and quality of the articles which currently exist. Tasks like clean-up and wikifying improve the quality of articles which already exists — however, it all of these are predicated on the creation of good, expandable articles. For an administrator, writing articles is key not only to contributing to the encyclopedia, but also to really understanding the rationale behind many of our most important guidelines and policies — it's hard to say you know the reason behind something with getting some good, first-hand experience with putting it into practice. It also allows administrators a sense of perspective when it comes to making decisions about articles written by other users — it allows them to put themselves in their shoes, and be more sympathetic, even when they feel there is a problem there. In short, writing articles is fundamental to understanding how the encyclopedia functions and it's important to have experience in that respect when granted admin tools.

Very optional questions from L

5a. Your comments above are rather lengthy, can you give a cliff notes version? Remember, 'brevity is ...wit'.

Point form:

1. I am a trustworthy editor.
2. Administrator tools will help me, and the encyclopedia.
3. I enjoy writing, and helping other users.
4. I have had no major conflicts, and deal with conflict in a reasonable and calm fashion.
5. Writing articles is good for admins, and the encyclopedia.

The bottom discussion in the oppose section amounts to:

1. The attacks leveled are ridiculous.

Perhaps not witty, but it is brief ;) --Haemo 06:00, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

5b. Given your lengthy replies, do you feel this is reflected in your writing, and if so how do you feel about people shortening it? Have you ever been in an edit conflict because someone thought that your writing was too wordy, or you thought another's was too ambiguous?

My lengthy replies tend not to be reflected in my editing; I try to studiously proof and copyedit everything I submit as article text. I have never, to my knowledge, been involved in a conflict where someone felt my editing was too wordy, or another's was too ambiguous.

(Deleted per

Optional question from SilkTork

7 Can you think of any situation(s) where an admin shouldn't be allowed to delete an article?

A: Yes, several off the top of my head:

1. When the admin has been previously involved in a content dispute on that page, and has shown that they have argued to oppose the page, or its content. This includes in general, but also as a closure in an AfD; I feel that if an admin is close enough to the content where they hold a strong opinion, and there is some doubt about whether or not it is appropriate that admins should let the community decide, by following standard deletion procedures, and allowing an uninvolved admin to interpret what the final consensus was in the debate.
2. If another admin has re-created the page recently, especially if the re-creation reverts a prior deletion of yours. Wheel-warring is totally unacceptable, even in its weakest forms. Admins should be careful not to engage in, or assist in, anything that even looks like wheel warring. For instance, if you delete a page over
   deletion review
   , then you need to step aside no matter how strongly you feel their decision was incorrect.
3. Related to this, admins have recently been confirmed to have more leeway in deleting
   notable
   stub article about the person in question after removing the offending material. They should not use deletion instead of cleanup.
4. I also feel that admins should refrain from deleting userspace pages against the wishes of the user who "owns" them (note the scarequotes) unless they either see a blatant violation of our guidelines or policies, or go through
   the proper channels
   .
5. It should also go without saying, but disruptive deletions, or deletions designed to make a
   WP:ANI
   without some concerted prior discussion.

Would blocking an administrator who reverts an ANI edit (in other words, practically deletes someone's comments and entire question and blocks them indefinitely)?

Sorry, I missed this above comment from WKPDX — however, I'm not sure I can answer it, since I'm not sure what it's asking. Would you mind clarifying? --Haemo 23:53, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Question from WKPDX

8. How would you handle an article where a few editors (usernames) dominated an article and reverted most others' edits, frustrating other editors? As you know, some RFC receive little response (or if they get a response, these responding editors may only comment once and not return to the article). Mediation is voluntary. ArbCom doesn't resolve editing disputes.

Well, this is a sticky question, given how much is left up in the air about the article, the editors in question, and what my involvement would be with respect to. For instance, I can definitely see such a situation being a problem — users with a particular

requests for comment

, and following up when I can or see the need.

Anyways, there is also the reverse situation — on many controversial or popular issues there is a dedicated group of editors who try to ensure

not being malicious

and to always keep the lines of communication open for discussion with them when they raise points that may have been previously been discussed to death. I know it can be difficult — I know I have not always had the energy to respond as vigorously as I would have liked on some issues — but it's still important nonetheless.

Naturally, everyone thinks the situation they are in is the latter of the two; which makes wading into any dispute of this type delicate. I would, most of all, keep my eyes open,

be civil

, and give everyone the time of day. Anyways, I apologize for the length of this but given such an open-ended question I felt that I probably should cover as many bases as my tried brain can think of, lest I give a false impression of what my views are.

Optional question from Jehochman

9. In an oppose comment below the user references an AfD where you commented on the notability of a blog. How do you feel about using blogs as references? If you'd like an example, our article on search engine optimization relies heavily on blogs and online-only sources. Is that appropriate, or should we delete blog references and use books and newspapers instead?

Okay, I think the context really matters here. Most blogs are not

reliable sources

, because they tend to be self-published and display no editorial oversight or fact-checking. For instance, nearly anyone can just make a blog, and then write about a subject. However, the line between the mainstream media and the "non-mainstream" media are blurring, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to tell them apart — for instance, many "traditional" media sources like newspapers and magazines also run "blogs" which the reporters write as they talk about stories. These tend to display editorial oversight and fact checking, and so are reliable sources. There are also very high-profile blogs by certain commentators who are experts, have a reputation for fact-checking, accuracy, and have become "gold standards" for news about certain subjects.

Suffice to say that blogs are, in general, great as primary sources about what a given blogger says and are all over the map when it comes to being

reliable source

, by their very nature. It's really no different from a self-published pamphlet, or the recording of a speech someone made — without the fact-checking and accuracy, they're not reliable.

To put it another way, blogs are only unacceptable when they don't have a reputation for fact-checking and neutrality — not simply because they're blogs, or online-only sources.

16. Super strong support Haemo has done excellent work on 9/11 pages, as well as working on the talk pages with constant queries and discussion which can be frustrating. Yet, he remains civil and polite, and works constructively. His involvement on the page has allowed me and other long-time editors to step back from the page, and do other things (or in my case take a wikibreak) without concern for the 9/11 pages. I also notice his helpful involvement on the Barbaro family page, which was a big mess in June-July with problematic editor, User:Tiki-two. Haemo would definitely be an excellent admin. --Aude (talk) 12:18, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, maybe I'm being a little facetious, but from all appearances, Haemo seems to do very well at conflict resolution and keeping calm in the face of controversy, and experience dealing with copyvios will definitely help. --Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 15:11, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of him copy-editing sentences after I submit them, we discussed every word and punctuation mark, refining each sentence until it was ready for submission. I was waiting for Craigflower Manor and Schoolhouse to pass GA before supporting, but I realised that the GA backlog elimination drive has ended, and looking through the article, I see no reason why it should not pass (I'll make my support strong if it passes). --J.L.W.S.

92. Support Good noms, great work in a variety of areas. Eliz81^{(talk)(contribs)} 20:13, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
93. Strong Support. Haemo has been a tremendous help over at
    WP:SCV and, with two new bots generating copyvio leads, we need all the admin assistance over there we can get. Will be a great admin. -- But|seriously|folks  05:25, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply

94. Support. Excellent and dedicated contributor whose participation as an administrator should greatly help the project. Cla68 12:05, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
95. Support: I've seen him around, and he's a good editor. Jonathunder 13:03, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
96. Support. In all the times I've encountered Haemo (mostly at deletion debates), I've always taken away a good impression. — Black Falcon ^(Talk) 21:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
97. Support. Like Black Falcon, I am familiar with Haemo primarily from UCfD, and I've been uniformly impressed by his well-reasoned, even-tempered responses in what can occasionally become heated discussions. His answers above reinforced my positive opinions of him. Horologium t-c 22:07, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
98. Support Seems like a good editor. I see no reason to oppose, so I support. ♠TomasBat 23:11, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

102. Support I believe that adminship is not a big deal. People should not make a big deal out of becoming an admin, and people should not oppose Rfa's for little reasons. I see no big reasons to oppose this user, so I am going to support. Good luck!--

103. Support. I appreciate SiREX' investigation and concise reporting of the incident raised below. I call on SB to recant and apologize immediately. As for this user, I see he has weathered a storm with composure -- a needed quality in an admin. His striking of his own comment in a discussion after being canvassed suggests he is desirous of remaining free of any suggestions of wrongdoing or participation in such. --JodyB _{yak, yak, yak} 10:59, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

106. Support. Has kept a very level head where I've seen his work, which has been in the conspiracy theory articles.

112. Support I have seen Haemo around for a while, and have never once seen an action I'd question on his/her part. We've run into each other at
     WP:RFCN and I've found Haemo's comments and suggestions both knowledgeable, and insightful. S/he seems to have a very firm grasp of the infrastructure of Wikipedia, and I would feel no qualms about Haemo having the the added tools. I believe the concerns raised by SqueakBox were sufficiently nullified; Pascal said it quite succinctly. The only issue of any consideration raised is that of Sefringle, and I don't get the feeling that Haemo doesn't understand notability, but rather that the focus was on a different aspect of notability, in Haemo's eyes. (Blogs about other blogs being reliable sources, vs. blogs themselves being notable.) There are many "popular" blogs out there, but that doesn't mean that each one should have a Wikipedia article. I also think that perhaps the subject matter of that particular AfD may have brought out strong feelings and Haemo's weak delete vote may have been seen differently than with other AfDs. In conclusion, I believe Wikipedia would be improved by having this well-rounded, experienced editor as an administrator. ^Ariel♥Gold 09:45, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply
