DarthRuiz30 (2 admins + 0 users/0/0)
Two-week deadline from first request. Voting ends July 9, 2019.

Support

 * 1) I am pleased to nominate DarthRuiz30 as our newest candidate for Wookieepedia administrator. Ruiz joined Wookieepedia in late 2014/early 2015 as part of the first wave of so-called "Canon editors" following the Legends fallout. With nearly 40,000 edits in that time, Ruiz has established himself as one of the leaders of our community. He earned the Rollback responsibility in 2018 and has wielded that tool with the professionalism and trustworthiness we would expect from a potential administrator. Ruiz has indeed become one of our strongest eagle-eyed Recent changes patrollers, regularly helping myself and other administrators to root out serial sockpuppets and other troublemakers through the Wookieepedia IRC channel. He alerts us to so many issues that I've jokingly remarked there several times that we should just make him an admin already so he can stop bothering us. :P But all joking aside, I think that time has come. I have the utmost confidence that Ruiz will do a superior job in wielding the blocking tool in his patrols, and I am ready to welcome him to the team.

 * 2) Full support from me. Ruiz is a highly trusted member of the community, is extremely active and vigilant, and I think he will make an excellent addition to our admin roster. Tommy  Imperial_Emblem.svg  Macaroni  17:34, June 25, 2019 (UTC)
 * 3) Ruiz is the perfect person to be newly granted the responsibility of administrator. He is a great example of a good Wookieepedian.-- Vitus Infinitus  Talk 17:37, June 25, 2019 (UTC)
