Pengo (talk · contribs) – I have been a member of Wikipedia since 2003, and have been editing regularly since. Some of my more notably contributions are the Iberian Ribbed Newt, the creation of Beastie Bot to correct the conversation status of thousands of species, and I frequent Wikipedia:Reference desk/Science where I answer and ask questions. I've avoided requesting adminship until now because I have felt I can mostly get by without it, simply by talking to users where there is a conflict, having my say in RfDs, or requesting special functions (like moving pages) from Sysops when necessary. Recently, however, I've found it increasingly difficult to do what I've been doing. For example, the taxobox template, which I have worked on in the past, has become protected after being vandalised, and this seems to be a growing trend for templates. I would also like to help with the backlog of articles needing to be moved (as I know I've needed this plenty of times, although I mostly request it on IRC), and closing RfDs. I would also revert vandalism when I see it, and have reverted plenty of vandalism and misplaced remarks, but could do so much better with the sysop revert tool thingy. —Pengo talk · contribs 10:30, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

Neutral, you want to revert vandalism (as stated in your nom) but I found no user talk warnings anywhere. Your user talk edit count isn't that huge either. You look like a very good editor, but not quite admin material just yet. Please learn about RC patrolling and other janitorial tasks and I will surely support in the future.--Andeh 16:12, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
