Gwynand (talk · contribs) is a good, collaborative editor. His article space edits are matched by a proportionate amount of discussion on the article's talk page, and the significant number of user talk-space edits is indicative of further collaboration. However, this is not all: this user's contributions in the Wikipedia namespace, particularly in some admin-related areas, are prolific. The overall edit count may seem low for a user who has been editing since January 2007, but looking at the contributions themselves beyond the raw count, this seems to be because the edits are lengthy, well thought through, and make good reference to policy. This editor is acting like an administrator in the way that he interacts with users, offering advice, and providing guidance. I therefore see ample evidence of sufficient experience in policy areas, positive interactions with other users, and consequently no reason that Gwynand should not be given the tools. In summary: large net benefit.
