Some final pre-RfA concerns

There are a couple of minor things that you should do prior to running:

• Archiving your talk page! I'd be asking you to do this anyway, 350 items is a lot, and there are plenty of options for automatic archiving. An admin's talk page needs to be accessible, and one this large really isn't.
• You might want to reword the first sentence on your user page. While amusing, "I'm here to loot, pillage, kill" probably shouldn't be the first thing people read there.

Feel free to draft your question answers if you're happy to go ahead with this; I'll work on a nomination statement soon. Sam Walton (talk) 11:50, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, I knew this stuff would come up eventually. Even Hullabaloo W. had to cave in and archive his talk page eventually. The talk page was still workable until recently. I figured someone would start harassing me soon. Same with the user page. That's been there for around 10 years now, and it was the one bit of fun the I allowed myself on my user page. I'll come up with something better, or maybe just remove it. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:08, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

For what it's worth, I've written three GAs: cult film, Leprechaun (film), and Keyser Söze. No FAs, no DYKs. I more-or-less lost interest in CSD and PROD shortly after turning on Twinkle's logging. I decided AfD was where I was needed, and that's where I put most of my effort. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:13, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

Questions

Some pointers for aspects of your answers that would benefit from expansion or clarification:

Q1

• I would like some clarification on "blocking long-term abuse vandals and obvious socks"; which area(s) would you be working in? AIV, SPI, ANI? It's quite a broad topic so a little more explanation would be good.
• Would you be closing AfDs? Your answer only mentions that you would be participating in AfD, which makes it sound like you would just be nominating or voting.
• Similar point for the last sentence; I assume you mean that you will participate or respond to ANI posts, but it's not clear that that's what you're implying.

Q3

• You should probably provide a wikilink to at least the RfC to save people looking for it.

Good answers otherwise! Sam Walton (talk) 20:54, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

@NinjaRobotPirate: Pinging you just in case you miss this. No rush at all, I just meant to ping you in the original post. Sam Walton (talk) 23:13, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, I sometimes err on the side of ambiguity when I'm trying to be concise. Good points, though. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:47, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

@NinjaRobotPirate: Looking good! I've created the nomination page. Please copy your questions over and accept when ready and then I'll transclude. Sam Walton (talk) 10:18, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

OK, done. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:47, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Great; done! Sam Walton (talk) 16:20, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
