* Just like the users above, I can only see good aspects of Amorkuz becoming an admin. From the a (somewhat) recent editing project I got to collab with him, he was always very polite, open-headed, and this is the exact same behaviour I see of him on the Forum (as well as acting as a good mediator, when things started to get "heated"). He also has a very good knowledge of the policies, so I also support this nomination.

* I won't pretend that Amorkuz and I have always seen eye-to-eye, but in all the (many) arguments I had with him earlier this year, he reliably conducted himself with not only dignity but a genuine excitement to find the most correct application of the rules in each scenario. Also, after our debates, he consulted with me so he could best edit pages with Faction-related sections. I believe his openness to stories he doesn't know about combines perfectly with his committment to the rules, and he'd make an absolutely fantastic addition to the Wiki's admin team. Whole-hearted support. [[User:NateBumber|NateBumber]] [[User talk:NateBumber|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 02:17, April 23, 2017 (UTC)

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:

Amorkuz

Nominated by CzechOut 21:39, April 21, 2017 (UTC)
Basic facts
  • Edit count and distribution
The rationale for nominating this user is:
  • Good grasp of basic rules of the wiki
  • Level-headed contributor to discussions, without that detracting from his overall contribution velocity
  • ~75% of contributions to regular articles, but roughly 15% to community name spaces
  • Minor edits to template namespace, but no apparent fear to at least try
  • Has clear-cut editing projects
  • Name bubbled to the top in admin discussions

Support

Please outline the reasons you support this nomination below:
  • I've had nothing but positive experiences editing with Amorkuz, and I believe they will make a great addition to the admin team. P&P talk contribs 22:02, April 21, 2017 (UTC)
  • Amorkuz has proven to be an apt debator, and more importantly I always could tell that he actually cared about the site and edited regularly. It'll be good to have another admin on board, and Amorkuz seems like just the right option right now. OS25 (Talk) 23:18, April 21, 2017 (UTC)
  • To me, the most important rule of them all is 'assume good faith'. Sometimes that can be sparse on this Wiki. In this respect, I've always found Amorkus to be a level-headed person and also never jumps to conclusions, which is why many find this person approachable and understanding. Furthermore, in a discussion, they like to take both sides of a debate in equal measure before reaching a fair conclusion. Everything said by Amorkus is for the good of the Wiki and all comments and feedback take people's feelings into consideration. I've enjoyed throwing ideas back and forth with them in the Inclusion debates (especially when we haven't agreed). It'd be nice to have a regular face on this Wiki who has such a positive effect on others. TheFartyDoctor Talk 00:52, April 22, 2017 (UTC)
  • Armorkuz is a dedicated editor, keeps to his projects, and always remains level-headed in discussions. In many cases, he will be the one regular contributor to a discussion who keeps things in perspective for everyone. Not only does he bring logical arguments, and ask very good questions, Amorkuz, perhaps without even trying, keeps the tone of any discussion quite friendly and accessible. I've collaborated with him many times on editing projects, small and large, and I can think of no better candidate for new admin than him. Full support. :)

  • I support this nomination, a good editor who knows their stuff. It has been a pleasure to work with them since their early days on the wiki when asking for help on Big Finish Audios. Adric♥NyssaTalk? 09:46, April 22, 2017 (UTC)
