Codex Gamicus talk:Admin nominations

What we are looking for in the upcoming Nominations

 * Since Echo and Achernar are somewhat busy. We may need one or possibly two more admins to keep things running smoothly.  (Stopping vandlism, locking templates, etc.)
 * We may also need someone who knows how to make graphical/layout changes on Wiki.
 * And seeing as how they're somewhat busy, the idea that any of the nominations will be chosen and made into an admin is pretty far off, but fun to debate over anyway. Who knows how to make graphical/layout changes? --  Jfarer

Voting
Users who are 2 weeks old and have at least 100 edits should be allowed to vote, otherwise sockpuppets can vote too. I am the true Jedi Master! 16:20, June 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure these rules are really required, to be honest, for the following reasons.
 * It's not really a simple vote. It's the quality of the arguments that "win", not just the quantity. Sockpuppetry has a somewhat diminished effect even when not discovered, and it's a simple matter to remove a sockpuppet's !votes should it ever be necessary to do so.
 * I would prefer to avoid instruction creep whenever possible.
 * Your suggestion appears to be motivated, at least in part, by a conflict of interest.
 * Anyway, I would note that Wikipedia doesn't impose arbitrary rules on who can comment on a request for adminship and they have a lot of experience with things like sockpuppetry. That's not an example we should feel obligated to follow, just something to think about. - Adan Aileron (talk) 14:21, June 15, 2011 (UTC)
