– Alfwyn is an extremely adept editor. His knowledge of templates and general wiki coding is very impressive and he would be a fantastic asset to the YPPedia as an administrator. 03:09, 20 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Yes, I accept. --Alfwyn 12:33, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Support
 * 1) Barrister 05:13, 20 January 2009 (UTC) -- I enthusiastically support this nomination.  Alfwyn is well-suited for adminship with quality edits and good temperament.
 * 2) I agree with Barrister's sentiment.  His wikimarkup skills and his ability to remain calm during discussions will be an asset to YPPedia.  His willingness to listen to new information and use it to correct mistakes, such as in the issues that cropped up with the Hen.jpg issue, also show the attitude of a good administrator. --Guppymomma 14:56, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) Quite knowledgeable about the way MediaWiki works, I've been quite impressed by some of the template improvements Alfwyn has done. --Thunderbird 07:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) I think he done good. "What they said" sums it up nicely. =) --Belthazar451 09:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Oppose
 * 1) User doesn't comprehend the naming format of picture images.  An example is Alfwyn's defense to save Image:Hen from deletion although it was misnamed; and misnaming it(wrong size) again to conflict with the creation of Hendrix.-- Haywoodx(t/c) 06:44, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate

A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
 * A. Helping with page deletion. Maintainance of protected templates if the need arises.
 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to YPPedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. The initial prototyping of the templates and creation of the color charts for three color trinkets. It was a missing wanted feature and I learned quite a bit about gimp in the process. Also my ongoing effort on cleaning up crew/flag/pirate pages.
