Zeckemyro (talkcontribsedit countRFA page)

Candidate, please summarize why you are running for adminship below.
I'm Zeckemyro and I would like to administrate SmashWiki to help protect the information it contains. I have done 3 947 edits and still going up. I am very knowledgeable in terms of technical data regarding characters' moves and I have a drive to keep the data as accurate as possible. I am online nearly every day and for a very long time throughout the day. I have experience in Discord moderation and although I don't know everything about how wikis work, I have the time and desire to learn. I'd like to put my time into making sure the information on this wiki is correct and credible.Hitbox Enthusiast Zeck (talk) 19:39, December 27, 2019 (EST)

  1. Strong oppose. There's no doubt that you are very good with technical data and hitbox visualizations, but when it comes to Wiki administration, and potentially even moderation as a whole, I don't think you are particularly well suited for the job at all. First of all, I don't think I've ever seen you attempt any dispute handling or conflict resolution of any kind, in fact I have seen you actively contribute to conflicts through actions such as edit warring. Secondly, your knowledge on the Wiki's policies seem questionable, and you have admitted yourself that your knowledge about how the Wiki functions is limited, which immediately places you below multiple potential candidates on this Wiki. But most concerning of all is your behaviour. While on the Wiki itself you haven't given much of an indication of this, I have both heard of and witnessed incidents of your poor behaviour on Discord, most notably holding strong grudges against people, which on one occasion I even got to see for myself, in addition to having a certain degree of contempt for many users as well, which is very concerning. Add to this your general tendency to be somewhat of a loose cannon, and I think you have quite a long way to go before you're ready to be an administrator here.

    • Although it's true my interpersonal interactions haven't been the greatest. I do consult other staff and put effort into not escalating things when I have to be impartial like if I am a moderator/administrator. It no doubt requires work, but it's work I'm willing to put in to ensure the well-being of the wiki and its users.Hitbox Enthusiast Zeck (talk) 19:32, December 27, 2019 (EST)
