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:

Shambala108

 * The rationale for nominating this user is:

I am pleased to place Shambala108's name before you in nomination for the position of administrator.

Shambala's work on the site has been extraordinary. She's tackled a number of big projects with the janitorial, how-can-I-complete-this-menial-task-that-makes-things-better-for-other-users mindset of an administrator, improving areas of the wiki that have gone too long unattended. In particular:
 * She's one of the few editors to take up the important cause of orphaned pages, making a reasonable effort and keeping that "list of wiki shame" manageably under 100 members.
 * She's dedicated her time to a massive improvement of our coverage of short stories

Stats
19:21, April 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * First edit: 12 years, 358 days ago
 * Edit count:, by Special:EditCount reckoning; slightly more by Wikia's "silly tally".
 * Current rank: 9th most prolific editor in the main namespace
 * Edits in main per day: 39—which puts her only behind CzechBot. So she's the most prolific human editor (in the main namespace) on the site.  Yes, faster even than Doug86's 32 edits/day.
 * Average size last 25 edits: 9898 bytes (Doug86: 1420; Tangerineduel: 5543; CzechOut: 1235)
 * Tardis loyalty: 93.5% of all Wikia contributions have been made here at Tardis
 * Namespace spread: 98% of her edits are in main with about 1% of edits in discussion areas. Though we would typically like to see a higher percentage of discussion edits from a prospective editor, the quality and clarity of her discussion points is phenomenal.  She has a way of engaging in debates that is simple, elegant and worthy of emulation.  She sticks to the facts, makes her points with clarity and, unlike me, brevity, and then goes on about her business.  We would do wrong to mistake her discussion page edit count for a measure of her impact upon discussions.
 * Namespace dabblings: She has found and made a few edits in the Howling and Theory namespaces.
 * Namespace deficiencies: Unusually, she has never uploaded a single bit of media, and she's given only the most cursory of glances to the category namespace. Still, these weaknesses are counterbalanced by existing admin who are more interested in them.
