Malinaccier (talk · contribs) - I'd like to present my seventh user for nomination, Malinaccier. Malinaccier is a dedicated, all-around Wikipedian who has experience from article-writing to deletion. Although he joined us last January, it was not until July that he became active. He mostly contributes to topics pertaining to Redwall and Harry Potter and was most instrumental in writing Spells in Harry Potter and keeping it safe from fancruft. Overall, Malinaccier has around 4000 well-spent edits. I acted as an admin coach to Malinaccier (which can be seen here) and was pleased with his maturity. I ask that the community consider Malinaccier as a good candidate for adminship. bibliomaniac15 00:02, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Co-nomination by Rudget: - I am proud to be a co-nominator for Malinaccier, an editor who I have admired and respected for a long time now. Malinaccier displays excellent judgement in all areas, and as Bibliomaniac rightly says, he works right across the namespaces. An extremely civil user, who has a very good temperamant, he has always impressed me. Although the edits aren't large enough to be shown on the Interiot editcount tool, I have continually seen Malinaccier perform good decisions and I've never had to refuse or deny any reports to usernames for administrator attention, the administrator intervention against vandalism noticeboard and additionally, he has a good presence at ANI. His mainspace contributions are first-rate, and I believe this combined with the desire to work in the AFD area, will enable Malinaccier to exercise his clue and article know-how. Overall, I believe Malinaccier, is in the truest sense, the perfect candidate. Good luck. Rudget. 13:14, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: Thank you for the nomination and the chance to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. I would like to especially thank bibliomaniac15 for the nomination and for coaching me, and Rudget for his co-nomination. Malinaccier (talk) 14:37, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
A: I would begin by closing AFDs where consensus is clear, and then moving to more controversial discussions as I gained experience in determining consensus. Especially early on, I would target the administrative backlogs and help clear those out. On the vandal fighting side, I would help out at CSD when it starts to get backlogged, keep an eye on WP:AIV, and put in a bit of work at WP:RFPP. I would also keep WP:ANI on my watchlist and help out wherever I could. I have already been granted rollback at WP:RFR, and have begun using that to revert vandalism found during recent changes patrol. So far, it has proved very helpful.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: Probably to the article Spells in Harry Potter, where I added a very large amount of the information know on the page. I also believe that my work on Magical Objects in Harry Potter has been pretty good, and my contributions to WP:AFD have been helpful. My recent change patrolling using Lupin's Anti-Vandal Tool has also been pretty good.
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: The only thing that really pops out at me was my arguement with User:75.11.12.136. The IP address was adding the same improper information to Spells in Harry Potter so much that it was getting disruptive. I warned the IP several times, and my userpage was vandalized, which made me mad, as this had never happened to me before. The rest of the day, I was in a sort of bad mood about the relatively small conflict. After this, I decided that I needed to cool down, and welcomed new users and started doing a little WP:RCP, which took my mind off of the matter.

Oppose

Oppose Not quite as many mainspace edits as I'd like, but that's not the problem. In this editor's dispute with the "vandalizing" ip, there were some problems I found. The ip was given a warning for making personal attacks. I however checked the contribs of the ip and found that no personal attacks were made. The ip tried to discuss the matter with this user in an edit note and on the nominee's userpage (probably because he/she was new to wikipedia and didn't know where to correctly discuss issues). Nominee gave several warnings to the ip after bluntly making the decision that any edits contrary to his/her opinion to the section in dispute would be considered vandalism. He made this decision without discussing it in depth with fellow editors or even asking them if it was alright to consider the edits vandalism. Although he removed it afterward, the nominee even gave a final warning to the ip. If anyone can offer counter-evidence, I will consider changing to support. Other than this, I see nothing else wrong with the editor's contributions. Timmeh! 15:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The IP was continually adding the same information to the article that myself and several of the other main editors considered disruptive. The IP then vandalized my userpage at this diff, under an old section of "my wikipedian goal". I then started a thread on the talk page to discuss what should be done about the information in question. I probably did handle the situation wrong by using user warning templates, but this was my first encounter with something of the kind. Please take this into consideration. Malinaccier (talk) 16:03, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Clarification. The editor's message, as it was under the section of "My wikipedian goal" appeared to me as if they were trying to make it look as if I was saying "But I guess im not a smart enough Harry Potter expert to figure out that myself" (taken directly from diff). I may have misinterpreted this however. Thanks. Malinaccier (talk) 16:27, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I see how he was talking about you and therefore vandalizing your page. I will change to neutral, however, I regretfully cannot support you. Your abuse of the warning templates, even if slight is very convincing and can cause many different kinds of problems if done again. I wouldn't have suggested using a very old dispute for your answer to the third question, especially because it is your first encounter of the kind. Timmeh! 23:57, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral
  1. Neutral per reply to my oppose above. Timmeh! 23:57, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
