Optional candidate Q&A
Vandals... They're the scourge of any wiki. But to fight them, you need good users. Users who can be trusted to respond effectively, and quickly, when vandals strike. That's why you can never have too many rollbackers. So vote Gonk. For the future. For Wookieepedia. For freedom. (I'm Gonk, and I approve this message.)  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 14:15, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
