Toprawa and Ralltiir (9 admins + 5 users/0/0)
Two week deadline from first request, voting ends 28 March, 2008.

Support

 * 1) I would like to nominate Toprawa and Ralltiir for rollback rights. He has demonstrated a willingness to patrol Recent Changes, undoing vandalism as needed. This would make his job easier and, of course, add to the number of competent users who wield this ability.-- Goodwood [[Image:Redstarbird.svg|20px]] ( Alliance Intelligence ) 03:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I wholeheartedly second this nomination. Tope pays very close attention to RCs most of the time he's online, which happens to be quite a bit. Graestan ( Talk ) 03:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Optional candidate Q&A

 * 1) Why should you be granted rollback rights?
 * 2) *Besides the obvious answer that I can better help to stop vandalism at its source, I think this nomination reflects my burgeoning trust as a user among the community. I take pride in helping to turn the Wook into the greatest institution that it can be, and with that comes an important element of responsibility that everyone who contributes here carries with them. As I grow as a more experienced user among the Wook, I hope to show that the responsibility I have accepted as a Wookieepedian has not been misplaced, and that by accepting this nomination I am able to prove this.

Enochf (2 admins/0/0)
Two week deadline from first request, voting ends 3/31.

Support

 * 1) Huzzah!  Gonk  ( Gonk! ) 14:43, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Comments

 * Nominating Enochf. Candidate accepted in IRC. Reasons in favor: Operates QotD with admirable efficiency. Categorizes images like a machine. Long-time user in good standing with the community. Already passed RfRollback. Reasons against: None I can think of. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 14:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure, why not? Let's start an official request for adminship. Reasons to support me:
 * I've been around and editing since mid-July 2006, with very few lapses. I'm hooked and not leaving anytime soon.
 * I'm an all-rounder, uploading images, writing articles, fixing grammar, adding categories, tweaking code. What I lack in sheer volume of article creations and expansions, I make up for in well-roundedness.
 * Quote of the Day is sort of my own little kingdom. Not that the place would fall apart without me, but it'd get a lot messier.
 * There was The Great Typo Hunt a while back. That was a good idea, right?
 * Most people assume I'm an admin already. Really, who'd even notice the difference if I were?
 * I've had rollback powers for quite a while.
 * My userboxes are catchy.
 * Um, I was Wookieepedian of the Month once... well, actually, I tied with Kuralyov, but that's only because of the partisanship of the Russian judges.
 * I'm relatively kind to newbies. Somebody around here's gotta be.
 * Oh, and most important, it's getting tiresome having to go on IRC and request admins to do things when I could just as well take care of it myself.
 * There. That should be enough. Enochf 14:47, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
