 * 1) I'm likely to do this kinda thing anyway :-P
 * 2) I'm quite familiar with wiki syntax, as well as being quite familiar with editing processes from various wikis
 * 3) * Second Life Wikia
 * 4) * Wikipedia
 * 5) * Official Second Life Wiki
 * 6) My work as a wiki editor is relatively well respected, having earned me nominations for a Hippo Award two years running- for either having invented or heavily contributing to a considerable amount of templates/processes in use on the SL Wiki
 * 7) I've also got a strong sense of ethics, which would be handy for mediating any editorial disputes.
 * Done. Your edits so far, as well as talking to you on irc convinced me. 20:43, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

I guess I'll apply to become an admin here, as I feel I have started making a large contribution to the content, specifically with the Achievements page and its subsidiaries, and am checking the activity logs pretty much daily. The main thing I can think of that I would do with the few extra shiny buttons would be to delete the few spam articles that pop up every once in a while, as that seems to be the main problems that arise here. I could help reorganize other parts of the wiki as well.

If I am declined, I shall have no hard feelings, as most of what I could do as an admin I can already do as a normal user. 02:01, 12 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Done. You are already among the most active users of the wiki, and you have not been discouraged by the low activity of the other admins. Use your new powers visely. 16:00, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello there. I would like to be an admin too. I am very active on this wiki, and I am always doing stuff. I also helped with the expansion of some pages, like the images of the Achievements article, the information of the Sea Monster article, fixing the links for creatures in the taxonomy pages and spelling errors, and helping on the articles Grox, Spore Creepy & Cute Parts Pack, and others. I want also to end this spam attacks with nonsense pages talking about random things. ME BANS PEOPLE!

I won't mind if I don't get the admin position. I really like this wiki and I wish luck to the people who get it. OluapPlayer 18:50 16 October 2008 (UTC)

I would like to apply to become a sysop on SporeWiki. I like this place, I am now very active on it. I help expanding, cleaning, and merging many pages, as well as adding images. I have a few articles inside the Taxonomy, and sometimes I put up a few of my creatures. I can quickly fly through an article and fix most, if not all spelling or grammatical and link errors. I like to work with the Planet & Surrounding Articles and also the Space stage and Civilization stage are one of my favorite articles, and I helped in that process. I don't want spam or vandalism here on this excellent wiki, there seems to be a lot of useless edits that IPs are making, and I would to have my rights raised to help me do that. I have noticed an increase in vandalism, and I would also like to help stop that (well now a decrease. . .). I'm also a very experienced user when playing Spore and writing about it on this Wikia. And, now I'm experienced with vandalism. I will try to do my best to block them and undo their edits. And, I have plenty of good contributions, and I am in fifth place for the most edits (which are at least 50% main namespace and more quality), if you include AdminBot and MorgothBot.

I am active on a lot of wikis.

SimCity (admin), Alternate History, Constructed Worlds, Maxis (admin), Reversopedia (admin), Un-Nintendo (admin), Nintendo, Super Smash Brothers, Expressions (founder), Spore Modding, Googology, Spore Fanfiction (admin), and I've done a couple edits on some others.

Thank-you very much. —Preceding signed comment added by TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 2:36, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Wormulon
- I would like to request adminship, I have edited on this wiki for a long time (Since 2008) and edit often. I already have Rollback rights on this wiki and I am also a Sysop on Wormulon@Maxiswikia.

I am familiar with the wikitools, creating pages, templates, wiki markup,  uploading images of my Spore creations and I am on the Taxonomy Project. I would like to become an admin because I edit alot here at this wiki, and it would be useful to have some more user rights.

Cyrannian
Greetings, I am Cyrannian and I am an experienced member of the wiki community. I joined SporeWiki in 2009, and I have used the wiki ever since, hence my 10000+ edits. After a year on the wiki, I finally decided to put my name down for adminship, and the support of the majority of the wiki community has really given me the confidence to pursue adminship seriously. I am very serious about the wiki and I would love for it to be even more successful. Here are some reasons which I will note.


 * I am respected by the wiki community.
 * I like to think of myself as being fair to all users, both new and old.
 * I am an experienced debater, without being unfair.
 * I am easy to understand and I have great communication skills.
 * I am friendly with all users with a few exceptions.
 * I have learned and understood all of the admin rules and functions. I know that they are more like janitors them judges!
 * I understand that being an admin is a lot of hard work, but I more then capable of handling it.
 * I am trying to increase edits to the main namespace, particularly fixing grammar, which is seriously lacking in some places.
 * I try to be unbiased and neutral.
 * I am active every day.

So, please consider me if new administrators are being selected. Contact me on my talk page or on IRC, have a nice day!


 * Thank you very much. I will use these extra powers wisely.--LibertusBoy.png Cyrannian  - Fight the Future...  21:45, February 24, 2011 (UTC)

I am now re-opening my request for adminship now that I have a new mindset on improving the presentation and informative quality of many different articles, and bringing attention to articles of which need attention. I now have a much more serious outlook on the wiki towards newer users. I have proven to become a respected member of the wiki, and know what to do due to my experience on this wiki - my time on this wiki has given me a patient mind and outlook, I will help when you ask of me, unless I cannot accept the task given.

I'm also a veteran on fiction writing, fiction advisory skill, and I have put an end to arguments (though starting some myself, but hey, no one's perfect in this world) and I have a very strict mindset on suspicious activity and users alike. I will be able to inform and describe in many different ways in many different articles.

I also have an eidt record of 7,950 + - so eiditing ability here is no new skill for me. I'm also a rollback on this wiki as well.

So, thanks for listening, and I hope I can become an admin for this wiki! Xho  MAC?!   WHY?!

Technobliterator
I heard recently that you believe the wiki is turning into a forum, rather than a database. So I'd like to help out doing site maintenance, however, I feel that it'd be much better if I had admin powers. Reason I could do well with these is:


 * I am very good with Wikia, and know nearly all there is to know (however, my advanced coding skills need work)
 * I have uploaded templates here
 * I have constantly needed the Delete ability and I know how to be fair to users
 * I am a very active user
 * I have had experience on other Wikis and know all about what site maintenance is (Special pages, MediaWiki, monaco/wikia.css blah blah blah)
 * I feel I can improve the Wikia.css, and on templates (such as the welcome template)
 * I have a cool new way to edit pages and would love to add it!
 * I understand that, of course, I'd need the opinions of other users
 * I've been around since december
 * I'm not gonna write how many edits I have cause I'll constantly need to update it. But it's a lot, see for yourself :P Also see here- they arent just a bunch of blog edits
 * Done loads of work on taxonomy and infoboxes to mainspace and want to help more!

as with Valader, most of the special pages/site maitenance & templates stuff I could do as a normal user, but I tend to try harder to set an example

Please consider me for admin ship when/if needed! -- 13:13, May 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok I've returned to the wiki, so I'll repost my request for sysop powers. Many are concerned about how I will use the powers, but rest assured I'm not going to be strict or abusive of them, as I'm not like this on the wikis i work it. It was mostly just personal things that have made me seem like I would act that way. Many can consider that a poor excuse, but it's hard to explain, and not appropriate on a site for information. Please consider me, if just for experience alone.-- 20:18, April 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I support Technobliterator for being an amarzing contributor to the wiki, when the time comes, consider her first above all. --Veo.png Val   (Mind Heist)  22:31, April 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * All right this has since been discussed, thanks, I'll make sure to us these powers to help out as much as I can.-- 21:20, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

The Randomness
I have been a member of SporeWiki since around November, but I fell into inactivity soon after I joined until around February or so, when I started to become active again. While I am not the most experienced user on SporeWiki, I believe I could be a decent administrator for the following reasons:


 * I am fairly good with coding related to wikia/wiki as well as HTML and CSS, and if there is something I don't understand relating to coding, I often try and learn how it works.
 * I am concerned about the status of the wiki, and I have helped to create this template due to what I was seeing on many of the articles on the wiki.
 * I feel fairly experienced with how the wiki works.
 * I am usually active on SporeWiki.
 * I'm able to mediate social conflicts and not get hotheaded.
 * While I am sometimes blunt, I know how to treat users fairly.
 * I try and revert vandalism whenever I can.
 * I use proper grammar and when I see improper grammar on an article, I usually endeavor to clean it up.

Feel free to consider me for adminship whenever necessary. | The Randomness | Talk | Blog 01:12, August 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I have promoted you to Rollback for now. Wormul.png Wormulon   Talk to me  21:38, February 24, 2011 (UTC)
