abstract
| - We've had some good discussions in recent requests for bureaucrat, and that's a good sign. It's good for us to take our time, to be careful and deliberate about important decisions. It raises the credibility of our decision making, and goes a long way to solidifying the professionalism of the Wiki. We have, however, failed to produce a new bureaucrat. I believe as much as ever that we need at least two active bureaucrats; both to cover each others' absences and to keep each other accountable. It is for this reason that I am nominating Skill for bureaucrat. I was planning on doing this a couple of weeks ago, but I felt it was important to only have one RfB on the go at a time. When I was searching the list of administrators to see who would serve as a good bureaucrat, Skill instantly took my eye. For me, he is the obvious choice. Skill has continually been a source of fair judgment and neutrality. He takes an extremely active stance on administrative affairs (community processes, Mediawiki, etc), and is graced with quite an impressive technical know-how. I can honestly say that I have never seen another user take exception with anything Skill has either said or done, neither on the Wiki nor on IRC. He respects all users, knows when to lead, and knows when to be passive. I appreciate your work here Skill, and I know others do as well. Good luck! Endasil (Talk) @ 02:21, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
