+Administrator

I am nominating Pi zero for admin as (s)he has been an experienced editor, and I believe (s)he will make good use of the admin tools. Do you accept? Kayau ( talk | email | contribs ) 13:01, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I accept — by which I mean, without prejudice, that I'm willing to be considered for the tools. The community should understand that I already spend at least as much time on Wikibooks as I can afford to; so any use I made of the tools would come out of about the same limited time I already spend here. It's possible, though, that my definition of "limited time" is somewhat lax, while my definition of active involvement is somewhat exaggerated. Lately I've been dropping by Wikibooks at least once or twice a day, and averaging in the rough neighborhood of a hundred edits per month; on the adequacy of that involvement level for an admin, I defer to the community's judgment. --Pi zero (talk) 04:32, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Pi zero has demonstrated to have firm understanding on the spirit of the project, its rules and fragilities. He does already spent time fighting general vandalism and his work on Wikijunior has not gone without notice. I'm certain, he will be able to conform to the expectations of the function and help us keep the project going... --Panic (talk) 09:52, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support Thank you for accepting. As a long-time user, you have already been involved with many maintenance tasks. The tools will make this a bit easier. --Jomegat (talk) 11:19, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Asking myself who would be a good person to add to the roster, Pi zero definitely tops the list. The use of my contributions as an example of active involvement is interesting... I certainly wouldn't hold anyone else to that level of participation. Visiting daily and a hundred edits a month is pretty good for an activity level at Wikibooks. As long as Pi zero doesn't feel as though the tools would be an undue burden on his time, I'm fully in support of granting them. -- Adrignola ^{talk contribs} 12:36, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support An excellent editor who has been around a long time, been involved, and is generally a good role model. Besides he has an excellent understand of grammar. Thenub314 (talk) 14:47, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since you mentioned grammar, I might as well point out that understand is not a noun. :D Kayau ( talk | email | contribs ) 11:03, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support - More than comfortable with giving admin tools here. — mikelifeguard@enwikibooks:~$ 17:53, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support - "Safe with the tools" is my standard, and Pi zero will be QU ^TalkQu 17:35, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support anything I could say has already been said. Chazz (talk) 19:42, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done then - wide community support. Thank you for agreeing to help. — mikelifeguard@enwikibooks:~$ 15:26, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's already done; discussion about Pi zero in general is better suited here. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 20:08, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To be the bearer of bad news to this project, Pi zero has died. This is confirmed by the global lock on his account. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:27, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for the note. The admin rights were removed by a Steward earlier today. There's been a discussion at the reading room earlier and we're happy that the other rights don't need removing (which is broadly in line with what Wikipedia does). QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 16:54, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

When I posted here, his account still had interface administrator, so that could be bad if somehow it were compromised. Thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 18:05, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Koavf:, that would not be possible because his account was locked immediately upon Agastya notifying the stewards. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 18:22, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. Well, everyone makes mistakes. Don't know how I did that. Oh well. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 18:28, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note, interface administrator was removed 16:56, 26 February 2021 by QuiteUnusual, see Special:Log/rights. Not that it makes much difference on a locked account, nobody can log onto the account anyway; but it might confuse people, and is supported by policy. --Jules (Mrjulesd) 19:38, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
