85:) - Garion96 has been around since August 2005, and I think he's ready for adminship. Actually, I thought that some months ago, and he declined at the time, but has decided he's now ready. I am familiar with Garion because we have worked on copyright issues together, actually I offered to nominate him after he came to me recently to perform some admin tasks related to replacing a copyright violation with new text. His work with copyright issues alone shows he has a need for admin tools. He seems to be a level-headed editor who does lots of thankless maintenance and cleanup work, which is always a good sign.

Knowledge from some bad press. He has received at least 3 barnstars from administrators. Perusing his talk and user talk edits show nothing but polite cooperation with other editors, welcomes to new editors, and proper warnings where appropriate. I'm sure he will expand on his

The most obvious circumstance where it would be inappropriate is of course when I am or another editor is in an contest dispute on the article with an anon. Another circumstance is when it’s only one static IP vandalizing the article, in that case it’s much better to block the ip for a short

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve
Knowledge in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for participants:

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?
