I normally don't require 4 solid months of administrative-type experience immediately prior to RFA, but in this case it will show that you are able to handle the issue raised in question 4. I also sent you an email on a related matter.

:: As davidwr said, your RfA was closed early - I would suggest that you read [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/MisterWiki 2|it]] (and davidwr's excellent advice above) and pay attention to the comments made in the opposes - the editors who have commented there give good advice on why you are not yet ready to consider adminship. |
|||
:: Some reasons from me as well: |
|||
::# your attitude [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/English_Opens_Doors&diff=330745120&oldid=330697200 here] ("Still being non notable...because I live in Chile and I've never heard about it") is either arrogant or immature - either way, the [[WP:N|notability guidelines]] and [[WP:ORG|notability guidelines for organisations]] say nothing about if specific editors have heard of it - they require a [[WP:RS|reliable]], [[WP:IS|independent source]] of information (such as, for example, the [[New York Times]]) to be available. ''This could be forgiven if it was months ago, but it was only 23 hours ago'' - seriously, many editors would have opposed on just this one thing |
|||
::# You said that one of your best contributions was "Guide newbies (Daisy18108 by example) and other users that need it." - looking at your on-wiki conversations with Daisy18108, I don't see very much guidance - mainly it was just general chit-chat, not about ''Wikipedia'' at all. Looking through your contributions, I couldn't see any other newbies that you had helped - lots of welcome messages, but not any other guidance. |
|||
::# You said in question 3 "Sometimes, however, it's not possible (when I get angry), when a user reclaims about my contribs, but I try anyway to do it by the better way" - an administrator is held to a higher standard than a "normal" editor. They are supposed to be calm, and avoid getting angry: an angry admin will do the ''wrong'' thing, like edit warring or blocking a user: blocking is required sometimes, but only when it is the logical thing, the ''right'' thing to do - not just because an editor has pissed you off. |
|||
:: I'm not going to add any more to that list - but in your previous [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/MisterWiki|RfA]], the first opposer suggested that you get [[WP:ADCO|admin coaching]]. I would suggest that this would be a good idea if you are serious. You may have been an admin on your school wiki, but there is a ''vast'' difference between that and Wikipedia: the scope of Wikipedia is so much larger (more than 3 million articles, almost 19 million pages in total, over 11 million registered users... it's a ''big'' wiki!) - and being admin isn't just about knowing how to use the tools, but ''when'' to use them - and just as importantly, when ''not'' to use them. |
|||
:: I hope you keep your keenness, and perhaps we'll see you with another RfA (hopefully not self-nominated, as some people really ''don't'' like those!) in several months (or longer) after some admin coaching.

Dispute resolution on Word processor screenshots
Greetings, MisterWiki
Please kindly report to Word Processor article discussion page, section "Screenshots of commercial word processors" for dispute resolution regarding one of your recent questionable edits. Fleet Command (talk) 09:39, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
Modern Talking
Please see the instructions at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals. One person does not a Wiki Project make, see [[1]]. I have removed your template and moved your project pages into userspace. If this project gets support, then you can move them into mainspace. In the meantime, please do not add the template to any articles. Thank you.

your RFA
I'm not sure you noticed that another admin undid your transclusion of your RFA [2] because it was not ready yet. When it is ready, you will need to re-add it to the main RFA page. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:39, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
- Your RFA was closed as WP:NOTNOW. I missed my chance to ask you these questions. Please be prepared to answer questions 6 in any future RFA. If the issues that led to me asking question 4 are still here in any future RFA, please be prepared to answer them. Question 5 has to do with your coming off a long wiki-break. Before running again, please have several months of sustained participation in the project and in policy- or other administration-related discussions before putting your name in the hat again.
- Given how quickly this RFA closed, I recommend waiting until
- You have at least 6 solid months of additional editing, with 100+ edits in each of those months,
- Until you have at least 4 solid months in a row of editing immediately prior to your RFA, with only short wikibreaks during those 4 months, and
- At least 4 solid months in a row participating in administrative decisions, with only short wikibreaks or breaks from administrative discussions during those 4 months.
I normally don't require 4 solid months of administrative-type experience immediately prior to RFA, but in this case it will show that you are able to handle the issue raised in question 4. I also sent you an email on a related matter. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 21:31, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
