SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians.  It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.  Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have '''feedback''' on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on [[User_talk:SuggestBot|SuggestBot's talk page]].  Thanks from [[User:ForteTuba|ForteTuba]], SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on [[User:SuggestBot/Requests|the SuggestBot request page]].  If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- [[User:ForteTuba|ForteTuba]] ([[User talk:ForteTuba|talk]]) 12:11, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

== Suggested as admin candidate ==

See [[WT:RFA#Candidate suggestions]]; I've suggested you and four other users as candidates at [[WP:RFA]].

:While Dylan's way of doing that was a bit strange, he does have a valid point. Your last RFA was 9 months ago, so why not try it again? I'm sure you'd do fine :-) '''[[User:SoWhy|<span style="font-variant:small-caps; color: #AC0000">So</span>]][[User talk:SoWhy|<span style="font-variant:small-caps; color: #35628F">Why</span>]]''' 21:19, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
::Now that it has come, up I vaguely remember you asking me a few months ago to do an RfA review on you... but when you told me that you were looking to run in a few months, I asked to do it closer to when you actually ran... if you are interested, I would be happy to do so.---'''[[User:I'm Spartacus!|<span style="color:purple;">I'm Spartacus!</span>]]''' ''[[User talk:I'm Spartacus!|<b><sup><small>NO!

:::This first paragraph is cross-posted from WT:RfA: Offline for a few hours and I'm confronted with this! To be quite honest, I'm not sure what's holding me back, but I'm still making certain mistakes here and there and last month my temper flared up in a civility issue (diffs available if you so please). Even though it turned out that my point of view was that correct one, I still didn't deal with it in the best manner possible, and therefore I'm not sure if I'm suited just yet. If someone could help settle those issues in my mind, I'd be more than happy to run again.

:::To Dylan, thanks for the offer, but I guess I'll see what I'm Spartacus' review turns out like before definitively running again for adminship. I'm flattered you thought of me, though.

:::To B'man/Spartacus, I didn't think you were still doing reviews like that, but I think now would be a good time for that review if you're still happy per my above comment that I'd be happy to run if someone could review my conduct last month in that dispute to see if it was overly out of hand. Also, I don't actually do that much that requires the tools bar a few move over redirects and possibly some CSD/AfD work + AIV (but I've little experience there). If these aren't too much of a problem, and assuming no other issues, I'd be happy to run. —<small><span style="border:2px solid #340383;color:#5a3596;padding:1px">[[User:Cyclonenim|<b>Cyclonenim</b>]]|[[User_talk:Cyclonenim|<span style="color:#5a3596">&nbsp;Chat&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 23:09, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

I took a quick look the other day, when I realized that running was probably not a good idea.  (Note, unlikely to pass an RFA <> unlikely to be a good admin.

::::The really important issue isn't whether you're prepared to run, it's whether you're prepared for failure, perhaps ego-crunching failure. Think very hard about that.

:::::I'm more than willing to trudge through the hellhole that is RfA again if I believe I have reasonable chance of passing ;) I've been there twice before after all, the only difference is this time I've had more time for people to conjure up evidence against me (and perhaps for me).

== [[User_talk:Cyclonebiskit#RFA]] ==

Hello, Cyclonenim. Before going forward with Cyclonebiskit's RFA, you might want to consider my comments/advice offered on his talk page. Cheers, [[User:Dlohcierekim|<span style="color:#00ff00;">  Dloh</span>]][[User_talk:Dlohcierekim|<span style="color:#bb00bb;">cierekim'''</span>]] 02:14, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

:[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ADlohcierekim&diff=282938023&oldid=282860443 Thanks for the note.] Go forth advisedly. While I would likely support, depending on evidence of readiness apart from experience in the admin related areas, a sufficient number of opposers may require experience ''before'' RFA to sink the effort. Certainly experience in AFD, CSD, and AIV will give a clearer picture of a candidate's readiness. At the very least, (it's an open book test) a candidate should thoroughly review the relevant policies. One should also be careful to not give the appearance of recklessness. A vandal should be reported at AIV only after a full set of recent warnings, unless they are operating at bot-like speed and clearly intent on causing damage/disruption. Before tagging for CSD or listing at AFD, an effort should be made to rescue the article through a search for sources and indications of significance/notability. An important distinction in CSD tagging under A7 is that an article need not assert ''notability'' to not qualify for CSD. It need only, "indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability." Another pitfall is using G1 to IAR a speedy deletion. While some admins will delete that way, tagging this way can result in significant opposition at RFA. Deletion should be regarded as a last resort, after all efforts at improvement or salvage have been exhausted. There are, by the way, a number of "block on sight" criteria, but that is for a later post. Hope this advice helps.

Hi Cyclonenim. I just wanted to say that in my unsolicited (and inexpert) opinion, you might be getting quite close to the point where opposes start appearing for 'oppose-badgering'. I know it must feel unfair, but there are other editors replying to your opposers so perhaps best to let them take the weight.
