Please Don't Be Disheartened
Unfortunately it looks like your Request for Adminship has been unsuccessful, please don't be disheartened by this! Whilst it might be a blow to have found people opposing your candidacy there might be legitimate criticism you can take away, learn from, and come back all the better. Remember; failing an RFA is not the community rejecting you as an editor. The best response now is usually to go have a nice strong cup of tea (or coffee, if you prefer). If you need any support or explanation of "what went wrong" the RFA Clerks are available to help. ~~~
