Final (67/11/3); ended 15:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC) - The candidacy is successful. I would, however, remind the new administrator to be cautious in handling speedy deletions. MBisanz talk 15:47, 10 April 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
ItsZippy (talk · contribs) – Dear all. I'm delighted to offer up ItsZippy for the mop. This came about after a request at the start of February [1] where I advised ItsZippy to wait until the start of April [2] after his first RFA - a WP:NOTNOW closure. Pretty much the bulk of the opposition at that time was based on lack of tenure /number of edits with some concern around the questions. Well, since then we've seen 5 months of activity and some addiitonal 5,000 edits (for those who like to count such things). Whether this will still be "enough" for everyone is open to debate, but I would argue it's more than sufficent to provide enough evidence of ItsZippy's abilities and demeanour.
I'm proud to co-nominate ItsZippy for adminship here. I've worked with him over the past months in dispute resolution areas and am confident that he has the right set of skills to wield the mop. Pedro has covered a majority of his positive attributes, but the key skill he brings to the table is experience in dispute resolution. A regular volunteer at the dispute resolution noticeboard, he possesses a rare skill - the ability to diffuse a difficult dispute. We have very few administrators who are also experienced in dispute resolution, and I think the other attributes that he brings to the table: decent AFD rationales, quality contributions to the article space and clue full input to discussions, is more than enough to give him the mop. His edit count is on the low side and activity isn't as high as some here may seek, but I'd put it down to quality over quantity here. He's done good work and isn't going anywhere. I hope the community will agree that ItsZippy is ready to wield the mop. Steven Zhang DR goes to Wikimania! 00:48, 3 April 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
