This is the page for requesting adminship for the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Wiki.
Rules & Regulations
- Users requesting adminship must be registered. They cannot be IPs.
- Users must be able to type and edit in correct grammar. There should be little to no usage of abbreviations or internet-speak, also known as 1337-speak or leetspeak.
- Only self-nominations are allowed. If you think that another member would make a good sysop, you can convince them to nominate themselves. You cannot, however, make a nomination on behalf of another user.
- After sufficient time has passed to allow all users who wish to express an opinion the chance to do so, a decision will be made based on community consensus as to whether or not the request will succeed. Once a decision has been made, the discussion will be archived and moved to an appropriate subpage.
- Selections of sysops are not a simple vote count, or majority opinion. Users who wish to be promoted should demonstrate a steady commitment to this wiki, and be able to point to reasons that the sysop tools would allow them to do better editing and make this wiki a better place.
- When supporting or opposing a candidate, give good reasons. Comments that describe in detail why the candidate should(n't) become a sysop carry far more weight than simple support/oppose. Also, support comments that reference only edit count carry almost no weight in the selection process.
- If a user has been blocked for any reason (except for an IP auto-block or wrong button click), or has a history of vandalism, spam, or trolling, (s)he must wait a period of at least six months from the expiry of his/her ban before (s)he may be even considered for adminship and be prepared to answer questions about his/her ban or history and how (s)he has changed. Even after considering this, however, it is still very unlikely that such a person would be granted bureaucrat powers.
- For users that have had previous unsuccessful RfAs and are planning to open a new one, consider the reasons that the previous nominations failed. Has anything changed about you that would make a new nomination successful?
- Users must have at least 300 edits before becoming an admin. This rule was increased from 200 edits to 300 edits on December 2nd, 2016, so some older admins might have less than 300 edits.
- Users must have been on this wiki for at least 3 weeks and have gotten the badge Bouncin' Up To The Top (make at least 1 edit each day for 14 days without missing a day). This rule went into effect on August 13th, 2016, so some older admins might not have gotten that badge.

Hi, I'm Anti-Cosmo Dude. I've been on this wiki for months and I have undone a lot of vandalism. I've also added more info to pages. Thanks :)--—Preceding unsigned comment added by Anti-Cosmo Dude (talk • contribs)

- Neutral - Yes, you have opposed vandalism, but you need to have shown clear dedication. You're viable for adminship but so far, a bit more work needs to be put in. Otherwise I won't close this request. ----Timson622222 21:35, August 20, 2013 (UTC)
