31: 169:, this gives me serious concerns about what you'd be like as an admin. I can't tell if you have the right kind of experience if I don't know what you want adminship for. And if you want to, say, close deletion debates, I want to see you have some idea of how things work there. 200:
ignore poor answers if you look good everywhere else. I probably will be neutral if you don't say what you want the tools for. I'll consider waiving lack of experience on a case-by-case basis, this is never an "automatic"
161:
You can't get enough experience to be an admin in less than 3 months, period. And a lot can change around here in 3 months, so I want to see you've been around here recently. Besides, recent edits are the ones I like to
189:
I'll consider <200 if you've been here a long time, contributed significantly to a featured article, or everything you want to do with the tools doesn't really require Knowledge: namespace experience (i.e. vandal
91: 141:
High edit summary usage. What's high? It's not really defined, but I have yet to see anyone fall in the "grey area" that I haven't found other reasons to determine my "vote".
154:
The Knowledge: namespace is where policy discussions are, where deletion debates are, and basically all sorts of other places admins will be involved. Yes,
121: 158:, but admins do a lot of the behind-the-scenes work that keeps this place running, and so just being a good writer isn't necessarily enough. 204:
If you've clearly made a good-faith attempt to improve recently or there's some reason your numbers are off, I'll probably ignore it.
288:
I supported you last time, you've fixed whatever I opposed on last time, or I didn't comment last time and would support otherwise.
64:
candidates, here because I believe in transparency of standards and because I get lazy in my "support" comments sometimes ;).
155: 253:
This wouldn't have happened if you had used your admin tools better before, and is probably a sign of meeting oppose factor 2.
301: 50: 186:
to articles, such that you haven't had time to rack up thousands of edits. Featured articles really help here.
193:
I may consider waiving the recent part if you've been here a while or have a good reason for your inactivity.
94:, because I liked it better than my old one. Not really a caveat, but I'm throwing that in there anyway. 81: 282:
I feel the desysoping was unjustified or I feel you've learned your lesson and won't do it again.
124:, or similar pages; while these pages have their place, they're not what I'm looking for here. 138:
you want the tools, and preferably experience in those areas that non-admins can help out in.
8: 87:
I get to ignore what this page says whenever I want, of course, as each RfA is different.
247:
Incivility should not be tolerated, and having the tools makes POV-pushing a lot easier.
172:
You really should explain what you're doing to an article. It doesn't take long, either.
30: 151:
Well, it's a quick and dirty, although certainly not perfect, way to judge experience.
117: 68: 46: 45:
If you want to revive discussion regarding the subject, you might try contacting
295: 276: 61: 17: 90:
I basically stole the current format (but not the criteria!) from

A very recent unsuccessful RfA (less than a month or two ago).
165:
If you can't be bothered to write good answers to questions

This user subpage is currently inactive and is retained for

At least 200 Knowledge: namespace edits. Note that this
250:
Basically evidence of meeting some other oppose factor.
84:. So don't be surprised if it looks different later. 256:
Admins should be easy to contact outside Knowledge.
