Admins
An administrator has special responsibilities to watch over the wiki. In order to make it easier to fulfill those responsibilities, and admin can block user IDs or IP edits, protect pages and revert pages more easily.

Nominations:

PicassoAndPringles
'''Nominating user: SOTO 00:34, October 20, 2015 (UTC) I am pleased to put forward the name of PicassoAndPringles, on her birthday no less (Hip, hip! ..No? 'Sfine), in nomination for the position of administrator. I believe she is a strong candidate for the role, and would make a great addition to the admin team.

Overview
In the two years that she's been here, PicassoAndPringles has shown a great number of qualities that are important in a good admin. She consistently displays an attention to detail, in both stories and on the wiki, that can only be said to be surpassed by the completionism evident in her great contributions to story pages. Lucifer Rising (novel) is a great example of this: she did a really thorough job in all the sections here, writing in a really detailed five-part plot summary and many new additions to the references and continuity sections.

PicassoAndPringles has very broad interests, too: she actively edits on pages related to novels, audio stories and comics. She's just an all-around Doctor Who fanatic. P&P likes to keep things up-to-date, regularly creating pages for new Big Finish stories and updating actors' role lists. She reworked Nick Brigg's long list of acting credits into something far easier to swallow. She suggests much needed new variables for. P&P has even dabbled into template-making territory, in a user subpage, where she tries out a template which would link to the right incarnation of the Rani (shown here), as we already do with the Master. PicassoAndPringles patrols recent changes already, too, and has proposed many-a rename and speedy rename in her searches.

She sees a cultural reference in a story; she creates the page. She notices a missing navigation template; she creates it. She sees that the section on Benny's travels with the Doctor is lacking; she gets it to the point it's at today. PicassoAndPringles will never hesitate to put the work in if she sees that something is missing.

Discussions with other users
P&P shows in the recent discussion on Titan comics that she is highly capable of thoughtful and respectful discussion. If you look at her contributions to that thread, you will find only calm points backed up with sound arguments based on our policies. She even searches for hard evidence both within the relevant stories and outside of them in the form of interviews, proving that PicassoAndPringles has got a special kind of perseverance when it comes to good research and finding sources.

Some policies P&P will likely enforce

 * T:NO RW
 * T:GTI (particularly with regard to comic story images)
 * T:NAMING
 * T:CAST

Stats

 * First edit 10 years, 328 days ago
 * Edit count:
 * Edits in main namespace on a typical day: ~10
 * Tardis loyalty: essentially 100% of all Wikia edits were made here
 * Namespace spread: 79.6% of all edits were made in ns:0 (main), a remarkable 10.36% (471) made in the file namespace, 2.42% (110) made on categories, 2.2% (100) on talk pages and template talk pages, 1.25% (57) on user talk pages, and 0.92% (42) in the forums. This means, of course, that she's mainly focused on content, but spends a great deal of time working with files and wiki structure, as well.
