KoRoBeNiKi

Hello. This is KoRoBeNiKi. I wish to become an Admin on here after all that I have done for smash 64 moves and all smash 64 and melee stuff. I wish to become an admin to help get rid of vandals and get rid of combos that do not exist. I wish to be able to report combos that do not work because it is possible to get out of most combos in these games. I wish to be able to furthur my contributions and the "pro" scene of smash. Other good points is that I have never been banned from Any Board whatsoever. I am also a very old member of this wonderful site going back to the time when brawl was not even known about (before when it was just smashwiki). I added starting percentages for characters of smash 64 and I only will change when I am completely sure that I am right. I have been here from the time of character moves not being there for anyone correctly in smash 64 and not even everyone in melee. I have had trobule with editing in the beginning but now I am completely fine with this. Furthermore, I believe that I am responsible enough to hold such an honor. 20:02, 29 May 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by KoRoBeNiKi (talk • contribs)

Weak Opposition Don't look so good when you don't even sign your own request. Also, I note many of your contributions are sparse, and marked by large periods of inactivity. Committment, sir, committment.Semicolon (talk) 20:47, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Oppose - Essentially, the above, but only felt moreso by me. --Sky (t · c · w) 03:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I Oppose. Sorry Dude, I just don't think you would be good if you became a sysop. I don't see you contribuing to anything except for user pages. Im not goign to agree just because we are tight. Once again I apologize. I just don't think you would make a good sysop...... Zmario 20:34, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

I am Neutral I think he needs more reasons why. Kperfekt722 17:50, 22 April 2008

Oxico

Hello all my Smashwiki friends. I am a vivid editor named Oxico and I have been hoping to gain sysop power since I came here. Some things I have done include editing all character articles by adding the Special Movements sections and heavily editing most movesets. I also have helped pick out and weed alot of, shall I say, faulty information in the articles. However, I have always wanted the ability to delete unneccesarry pages.

Though I may be young compared to other users who were nominated for Sysop, I have much desire to fufill this role. When I first joined last December, I thought the Wiki needed no help. It looked fine, and I didn't think my help was needed. I started looking through the pages, and I saw some information I had not seen anywhere else on one of the character pages. I looked every place where valid Smash Bros. information was, but could not find a good source to back the information. So, I edited it out and called it speculation. I did this to many different pages, and soon, I was an avid editor. When Final Smash information was leaked, I created many of the Final Smash pages. I also calculated the damage for every Final Smash. I also made sure all character articles were treated equally. they must all look the same way, to keep order. My crowning jewel, I believe is the Special Movements sections on every character's article in SSBB. The sections took me a long time, as I had to find out much information in other videos for On-Screen Appearances and the like. Most information on the On-Screen Appearance page and Taunt page.

Here is a link to show all my contributions.

I Strongly Support He is a very loyal asset and i see him update evrything. He has gotten my vote! Zmario (talk) 14:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Neutral. While everything that Oxico has done has been quite good, I've only seen him working in very specific areas of the wiki. I also have not seen him doing any of the house keeping on the wiki such as marking articles for cleanup or labeling stubs. More of this would help his case, as would simply more editing in general. However, his contributions to character animations do show dedication and I don't feel that he would abuse the tools if he were given them. Clarinet Hawk (talk) 01:26, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Clarinet Hawk

Hey everyone, I'm Aaron Kirschner, known on the smash wiki as Clarinet Hawk. I'm putting myself up for sysop nomination because I fell that I would be a good addition to our already great set of admins. I have focused heavily on gameplay elements during my time here. My notable additions include the pages on Spring Canceling and Guard Breaking, as well as being active in the discovery and research of the SLAPASTICK and SLAPAYO glitches. I have also made numerous additions to the general properties of different attacks and techniques. In addition to my work with the game play elements of Smash Bros, I have spent time almost every day for the past few months doing general spot checks of the wiki. When I see problems, I add the necessary templates and/or fix the problems. While I try to do everything I can to make the wiki better, I also understand the need to encourage newer users to contribute. As such, when I see problems, I err on the side of showing the newer editors the best way to make their article(s) meaningful rather than simply do it myself. Of course, whenever I see vandalism, I revert it and notify an admin of the offender.

As for why I should be a sysop, I feel that my contributions speak for themselves. I have always maintained a professional manner and writing style. In addition to these, I have done my part to discuss important issues on both the talk pages and the forums. In terms of my primary area of gameplay, I am technically advanced player. While this may seem like a strange thing to determine sysopship based on, I mention it only to prove the fact that should a debate over the effectiveness or existence of a technique arise, I have the means to recreate and test it. I am also part of a crew that has been able to perform every legitimate technique. Therefore, I can test almost any proposed technique or strategy to resolve conflict. Beyond the gameplay elements, my daily checks of the smash wiki occasionally encounter vandalism or other pages that merit deletion. While I nominate these whenever I see them, it would be more efficient if I had the ability to watch the debate of the pages and delete them myself. I would still give every page the benefit of the doubt and allow ample time for defense of the page. As a final note, I have a photographic memory, making it quite easy for me to spot changes to pages and remember names of editors. This has been invaluable in quickly recognizing vandalism and vandals. I request to become a sysop so I can do my part to better this great wiki. Thank you.

  • Neutral with strong leaning to support - The only reason it's not a full support are all the edits you've made to your page, Slapayo and Slapastick combined with a "low" edit count. Otherwise, I think this candidate would benefit from the tools, and I'm certain he could have used them earlier today. :) --Sky (t · c · w) 03:18, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
I have to agree with Sky here. While Aaron has helped quite a bit, I'm just not sure if he's the right person. I don't have anything bad to say about him, though. FyreNWater - (Talk • Contributions ) 05:16, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Takes Big Gasp of Air No! Zmario (talk) 20:36, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Strongly Support While Clarniet Hawk and I have not got on well in the past, he is a great asset to this wiki, and has made it vastly better, and seems to be pretty helpful to newcomers. His one downfall, however, is that he does not appreciate the brilliance that is Ike! Ike6481 (talk) 14:41, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Strong Support. I thought he already WAS an admin! - Gargomon251 (talk) 01:18, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Kperfekt722

Hey, I'm Kperfekt722 (Or GANONDORFGOD) and I would like to be an sysop because: I know a lot about Super Smash Bros., I'm pretty much 100% sure I've been playing longer then anyone else reading this, I play SSB all the time, I am great with web related things, and because I am always on this site every day. I try my hardest to edit everyday but this site is pretty good already! I just want to try and make it even better :) Kperfekt722 (talk) 05:34, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

  • I have never seen you on this wiki. I hate your profile information (only giving people respect if they beat you.} You are correct when you say you are a narccisist. How can we let you edit if you don't know how to spell words correctly. Very Strong Oppose Oh and I have play smash since I was 6. Zmario (talk) 20:37, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Looks like you finally shook your ban, and almost to the hour if I'm not mistaken. Without being utterly rude and entirely lacking of propriety, go away. You have never demonstrated anything aside from negativity and inane ramblings since your unfortunate arrival at this slice of the interwebs. Nobody cares what you think or what demonic pittance you desire to 'contribute.' Take your banter elsewhere. Sincerely, Semicolon (talk) 21:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC).

MASSIVE oppose You sound like a right idiot. Deluded and rude. And also, you're not funny, so do not try to be. You can't beat all star match deluxe? Yet you consider yourelf to be the best Ganondorf? If your profile information is anything to go by, you are a terrible player, a rude, arrogant, somewhat highly stupid person, who would only destroy this wiki if you were to be made a sysop. All in all, you are a trollish sockpuppet.Ike6481 (talk) 15:32, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Strong Oppose Firstly, I've never even seen you before. Secondly, your profile (aka "the page that represents you") is incredibly unprofessional and offensive. Thirdly, it seems like this guy would do nothing but cause problems if given any sort of power at all. He seems more like someone that I'd keep my eye on and clean up after, not someone that would help out. FyreNWater - (Talk • Contributions ) 19:31, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Strongly Oppose. Is this a joke? The only article he's ever contributed to is Super Smash Bros. Starz. -Gargomon251 (talk) 01:24, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Gargomon251

GalaxiaD recommended I check this out. It would be nice to be able to do things like protect pages, block users, merge pages etc., I'm just not sure how much time I can devote to this. Maybe I just need a little more information. I have many positive comments on my talk page, and I always check for vandalism/errors in the late hours, but I'm never here on any particular schedule, and I know I've made some hasty edits in the past. Also I won't be able to edit any SSB articles since I don't have it, and since I usually do this from my Wii, major edits at would require copying and pasting may prove difficult, given how bad my PC is. However, I do play often, and I am very good with the smaller edits like spelling and grammar, even if I'm unlikely to write entire articles or edit specific data such as character matchups, character history, or fan-games. Well, now that I think of it, this isn't a very convincing argument towards my adminship...hmm. Well maybe if others agree, I can find out what is required. - Gargomon251 (talk) 01:16, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Strong Support. The lack of PC thing does suck, but Gargomon has been a true asset to this wiki for some time now. I think he's deserving of the tools if only to make it easier for him to continue doing what he has been. Clarinet Hawk (talk) 01:20, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
