 * 1) Grunny is a great user. Though he's been here since before me, it's just fairly recently that he's become a regular user, and in that time he's accomplished a lot. He's an Inq, a member of the AC, and has rollback rights. He writes FAs and GAs, and his nominations are usually very clean. But more than that, he's a very friendly and helpful guy. I know that as an admin, he would just as willing to help users, and would be in a greater position to do so. Thus, I place Grunny up for adminship.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 16:41, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) Definitely. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 16:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) He's helped me out in numerous ways since I got here; and he's always been patient, friendly, and encouraging. I believe he deserves this. Jonjedigrandmaster  ( Jujiggum ) 17:00, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) Grunny has dedicated a great deal of his time to helping Wookieepedia become a better site. He not only spends time dealing with maintenance issues, he is incredibly helpful to any new users that ask him for help. Ever since I have gotten to know him, he has been cheerful and friendly, always willing to work with other people. His leadership skills have grown by leaps and bounds and have been recognized accordingly. This is quite easily one of the most well-deserved nominations. Cylka  -talk- 17:02, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 5) Per above, and might I add: About time. Grand Moff Tranner Imperial Department of Military Research.svg (Comlink) 17:23, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 6)  OLIOSTER  (talk) Sith_Emblem.svg 17:35, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 7) Per above, and especially Tranner. :P  CC7567  (talk) 19:16, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, Grunny is a very friendly member and truly deserves to be an admin. Dedicated to help promote articles to GA/FA and is a good leader and friend. <span style="font-variant: small-caps; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px"

 * 3) My man!  IFYLOFD  ( You will pay the price for your lack of vision! ) 00:46, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) It's not so much that Grunny is my right-hand man; it's that he's everyone's right-hand man. Always the first to offer his assistance in almost any venture, Grunny has never let slip even the slightest mote of negativity on the wiki and in IRC, and even behind closed doors he is reserved and extremely objective. Also importantly, he is a very competent user who watches the recent changes during hours most current admins are absent&mdash;I've been saying for a long time that we need a very strong admin in the Australia time zones. Grunny is the man for the job, undeniably. Graestan ( Talk ) 02:42, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 5) Per Grae. One of the most active and helpful members of the site. SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie  the truth  ) 04:19, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 6) About time. -- Darth tom Imperial Emblem.svg (Imperial Intelligence)  07:19, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 7) Per above. Master JonathanJedi Council Chambers 07:24, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 8) He deserved it.  Mauser  Comlink 07:34, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Comments

 * Via IRC.  Chack Jadson  (Talk) 16:41, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The result seems to be a foregone conclusion, but I will wait for the questions to be answered before voting. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 02:46, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Same here. Atarumaster88  Jedi_Order.svg ( Talk page ) 04:28, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
