Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:

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

A: I would start out with CSD work and closing AfD discussions, the two administrative areas in which I have spent the most time. After I have gained more experience I intend to branch out into other areas as well, for example helping at

Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure

. Eventually I would like to help with a broad range of admin tasks, but I plan on going slowly and asking for help with anything that I am new at. The extra buttons that admins get have the potential to cause some serious grief if used badly, so I plan on taking my time.

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

A: I'm a language teacher by trade, and my main area of focus when writing articles is language education and second-language acquisition. Probably my best article is

Mediation Committee. I've lost count of the number of disputes I've helped to deal with, but this link might give people a rough idea. A couple of the more memorable disputes from DRN were the Lotus E20 dispute and the Flag of Western Sahara dispute (plus accompanying RfC). If I had to name one dispute which I was the most proud of being involved with, however, I would choose the MedCab mediation of Wikipedia:Verifiability and the resulting RfC which was closed yesterday (July 30). That is the biggest dispute I have dealt with, and I am very pleased that there is finally some consensus on the issue. Also, dealing with a mediation this big has taught me a lot, and hopefully should stand me in good stead for my next project

.

3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?

A: I haven't been in any disputes for a good long while now. Language education is a very quiet corner of Wikipedia, and it is rare enough to see another editor there, let alone get in a dispute with them. I do have to deal with angry or distressed users from time to time as part of new page patrolling (for example

third opinion and the second at a dispute resolution noticeboard thread

. With my work in dispute resolution I've become pretty good at being patient and negotiating solutions, and I know Wikipedia's dispute resolution system very well now. If I get into any disputes in the future, I'll just apply this knowledge and get outside input if it seems necessary.

Additional question from Diannaa

4. Please tell us some more about the work you've been doing on templates.

A: Sure. The first template I wrote was {{

Twinkle installation when it is not. And in my case, it meant that I couldn't easily update the documentation for {{db-g10}} after I added a couple of new parameters. So I have been moving the speedy deletion templates back to using the standard {{documentation

}} template. As part of this process I will need to update most of the speedy deletion warning templates as well, so you might see me doing this over the next few days.

Additional question from Jorgath

5. Please state your interpretation of

A: I'll start with

WP:ANI

are there to help find a wider consensus.

Additional question from

Webclient101

6. A user is trying to upload an image from Flickr using the license cc-by-nc-2.0, which does not allow commercial use. How would you proceed?

A: Wikipedia requires its content to be available for commercial use, so an image licenced under CC-BY-NC 2.0 cannot be used without restriction on the site. (The

speedy deletion, depending on the circumstances. I would be very careful with this part, as the only files I have nominated for deletion so far have been on Commons. And if I was unsure whether the image met any of the non-free content criteria, then I would try and fix the file description page as best I could, and start a discussion at Wikipedia:Non-free content review

to try and find a consensus on the matter.

Finally, in all but the first of the cases above, I would leave a message on the talk page of the user who uploaded the image explaining the situation and giving advice for the next time they uploaded an image. A message wouldn't be necessary if all the non-free content criteria were fulfilled, although I might leave a thank you note depending on the circumstances, and I would welcome the user if they were new.

Additional questions from Carrite

8. Have you previously edited Wikipedia using any other account? If so, what user name or names have you also used?

A: Yes. I have an alternative account,

talk · contribs) after my username change in December 2010. All of my registered accounts are listed on my user page here

.

9. A few days ago you nominated for speedy deletion a page Oh My My (Ringo Starr song), started in July 2009, which included the content: "Oh My My" is a song released as single from, and on, Ringo Starr's 1973 album, Ringo, and features backing vocals from Merry Clayton and Martha Reeves. It hit number five on the US Billboard charts, making it one of the most successful songs of Starr's career. — What possible rationale is there for using the draconian Speedy Deletion process on such a page? Why did you not bring such an obviously debatable nomination to Articles for Deletion? (Even going to Proposed Deletion would seem to be a great stretch here, let alone Speedy)? Was this an error of judgement on your part?

A: I had no issue with the content when I tagged this article for speedy deletion; the nomination was purely technical. A user had attempted to move the page

history merge, so it might be hard to tell what happened from the page histories alone. To see that it was fixed by a history merge you need to look at the deletion logs (here and here). If anyone is unsure about the technical side of things here, you are welcome to contact me on my talk page

, and I will explain it in more detail.

12. Support - Has done great work at

20. No reason to oppose this candidate, and every reason to support him. His fantastic work with dispute resolution and mediation shows he has exactly the right attitude and temperament to deal with the more challenging areas of adminship, and I have no doubts that he will use the tools well.

21. I had seen Mr. Stradivarius around AfD in the past, so I specifically took a longer look at his AfD work. I saw familiarity with our our policies and precedents, even-handed application, common sense, a willingness to actually dig into sourcing questions in depth, and a willingness to turn around his opinion based on new evidence when appropriate. I imagine that many of these qualities are present in the other areas he chooses to work in, and they will serve him well as an admin. --j⚛e decker^talk 14:59, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
