Possible RfA

Hello. People are very impressed. I see great AfD figures. High numbers and right calls. Admin is much ado about deleting pages and making good calls there. A cursory look at your talk archives show a friendly manner. I haven't looked into much more. If a couple of strong nominators would back you, would you consider running? Let me know if you are serious about this, and we can go further. Very best wishes. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 19:36, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

  • Thanks for your kind words, Anna. I'll have a think about it and let you know :) — sparklism hey! 21:15, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Have you thought about it enough yet? Seriously, I see a 93.1% success rate on well over 500 AfDs, which I would class as excellent. I agree that deletion is kind of the bread and butter, meat and potatoes of being an admin, and that with a side order of page protections is really what it's about, we have enough people hanging out on ANI as it is. I think Anna would be a good nominator and if you can poke Kudpung out of his slumber he's a good one to have too as he won't put you forward without a thorough check and AFAIK he's never nominated anyone who hasn't passed by a country mile.

Thanks for your kind words, Ritchie. Look, I wouldn't rule out a stab RfA at some point in the future, but right now I'm far too busy IRL to put myself through the legendary hell-week. Besides, I'm happy to focus on content at the moment, as this is where I think I can add the most value to the project. I hope this doesn't disappoint anybody - see you over at GAR! :) — sparklism hey! 11:38, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
