Support

 * 1) I support Jello Rabbit, who is a fully qualified User and helps the Wiki out by editing a lot. Young, but he is an expert. Plus, he's a Rollback come PokePower Member. Arceus The God of Pokemon 11:49, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm favoring Jello, why you ask? He edits game related articles (which is the majority of what I edit) and he's expanded and unstubbed many of them. SapphireWave  (Talk)  12:53, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) I am supporting Jello Rabbit because i believe and see that he has edited a lot and contributed a lot since he first came here. He helped and edited a lot of articles so i am in support. Adventure Writer 28  -Leave Message Anytime  13:08, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

NeutraI

 * 1) I'm staying Neutral. Jello still has a lot to learn about editing, but he's continuously getting better. If I see a huge improvement over the next week, I will change my vote, easily. --Bullet

Comments

 * 1) Thanks for the nomination and thinking i'm a good editor. I try to do what I can. I might nominate you sometime soon...

Support

 * 1) AdventureWriter28 or AW28 - The Manga Gal... AdventureWriter has put into a lot of effort into filling Pokemon Wiki with manga articles.

BassJapas (talk): Contributions Edit Count

I haven't been around for the longest. I technically joined in December, but started consistently editing in late April. I have experience as an admin on other wikis. I know how this wiki runs. I'm on nearly 24/7, with the exception of sleep and school, but I am on the site when I have computer time at school. I've helped a lot with mark up, and still have a lot to do which I've been working on a lot as of late. I'm good with CSS and MediaWiki pages. I made the Monobook skin, and being an admin would be a major benefit because I would be able to edit the pages instead of giving the code to an admin to add in. It'd also be greatly beneficial since there's an image in the Monobook.css that needs to be uploaded and replace my image wiki's code in the CSS.

I'm eight edits away from 1,500 edits, I'm currently at 1,492, and 1,094 of those edits are mainspace edits. I'm able to do great work with images since I have photoshop and I can remove the background in .jpg images and reupload them as .png and then delete the previous .jpg images.

I know how to block and what to check off when I make a blcok. I know how to move a page without creating a redirect, unless the redirect is needed. And I know how to delete the pages, along with the talk pages and clear out all the links to it. I also clean out all the redirects links when I move a page.

My first edit to this wiki was archiving the news on the main page and fixing Template:DYK.

I know some of you may think that I don't qualify. I know that I have had riffs with other users, but those were minor and little to none. I also haven't been here the longest, but I am a freqent editor on Wikia as a whole. I'm also not a member of PokePower, but before you hold that against me. I want to say that I don't nessacarily want to be part of PokePower because I want to be able to help the wiki in general, and not be tied to a specific part of editing.

I also set up the IRC, and am going to send in a founder request to wikia, due to the founder being long gone. I set up the Facebook and Twitter pages and am monitoring them well.

I think I'd be a very good candidate for admin, because I have experience, and am well knowledged in wikia and pokémon.

I also apologise for any spelling mistakes in my request, I am at a school computer and it doesn't have a spell checker. --BassJapas (talk)

Support

 * 1) I support Bass, just so that he can enjoy his admin rights before my Helper rights. Arceus The God of Pokemon 17:13, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) She knows a lot about wiki coding :).
 * 3) Bass is a mainspace editor that knows plenty about coding and is active most of the time, if not here then over on Zeldapedia or on another wiki where she can still receive messages from users on this wiki. Also she has made the IRC, Facebook, AND the Twitter page for this wiki and improved may templates and the like. Altogether, she's probably the most qualified for the job - SapphireWave (Talk)  02:06, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) No. I find this user quite rude. He was rude on my account for another wiki -_- --TheLecBolt

Comments

 * 1) Arceus, A. I'm a girl, and B. You're hardly in the place to say that someone doesn't show proper behaviour, have you not seen your blogs or your VSTF slagging? --BassJapas (talk)
 * 2) Hmph, I'm closing my request. I'm putting support for you so that you can become a petty admin. while I become a Wikia Helper, which have Bureaucrat Status on ALL Wikis. ;D Arceus The God of Pokemon 17:13, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Also, Bass, being a PokePower Member doesn't mean you can't edit other stuff. It means you specialize in that. Also, if you want to do general stuff, why not become a Mulit-Tasker? Arceus The God of Pokemon 17:16, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) I know what it means, but I don't want the title of a member, because it means you have to work as a group, and I work singularly as a user. And also, you clearly don't know the definition of a wikia helper. Also, refrain from calling me a boy, because I've clearly stated that I am a girl, and I demand to be called as one. Also, don't use words that you don't know what they mean, because if you knew the definition of petty, you'd know it doesn't get used in that context. 17:20, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) Petty means low or inferior, compared to a Helper/Staff, a local Wiki Admin is pretty inferior. I know the meaning of Helper. I didn't call you a 'he'. And if you can't work well with others and prefer to work solo, that means you don't deserve Admin rights as admins must mingle and work with the normal Users. Arceus The God of Pokemon 17:27, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) You must not know how to read your own text. And I'm talking about wiki projects. I like to do my own wiki projects, because I don't want to have to focus on one thing, whether I can do more than one thing or not, I still have to do that project. I jump from project to project and wiki to wiki. Which is what I mean by I like to work alone, because I edit more wikis then most, and therefore, can't do a project with someone else because they can't depend on me to do that of which they want me to do. Unlike admin rights, where the admin doesn't need to be on the whole time, and just mainly needs the RC open so it refreshes and they can catch vandalism. 17:45, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Bullet Francisco
Though things have been moving quite slowly for me, I believe I am ready. I am a helpful contributor. My grammar 99% correct. (Not like anyone is grammatically correct all the time.) I also have been made an admin on MANY other wikis. I also will never misuse my powers. Though I believe editcount is irrelevant in most cases, I think I will make a good admin. I am also a member of PokePower and I'm a rollback. I am also very good with coding. Thanks.--Bullet

Support

 * 1) Good faith user. User has been a good faith user for a long time. We need a good amount of sysop seeing of this busy wiki, but not my reason. Real reason is that he has got talent :D.
 * 2) I think it be right! Bullet is a pro at editing and I've seen him edit a lot on this Wiki. he's been a lot of help to this Wiki!  Lily the Girl  who Loves Anime &amp; Manga 

Comments

 * 1) Thanks, Jello, it means a lot. --Bullet
 * 2) Anytime :D. I am your friend and I see the faith of sysop powers in you :D. Honest, really.

Felectrify (Rollback)
I can help. :D

Support
Yes. --TheLecBolt

Support

 * Yes, of course. Possibly one of my first friends on this wiki and he is very kind, loyal, and friendly to everyone. I think we all got past the fact that Ciencia blocked Arceus which was kinda a misunderstanding, but he is still my friend and has learnt through a lot of experience on this wiki.

Oppose

 * 1) You're more than a tad immature. Don't have many mainspace and are prone to being petty and slagging admins and VSTF members. --BassJapas (talk)

Comments

 * 1) I haven't known Arceus for long, but I do know he needs to make more mainspace edits other than adding categories which is why I'm not in support of him for right now and just commenting instead. I would've opposed this, but once again I don't really know Arceus so I'll just put this as a comment SapphireWave  (Talk)  13:05, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Excuse me, BassJapas, I do have about 1300 main space edits as can be seen from my Special:Editcount and only 2 edits in categories. Arceus The God of Pokemon 15:38, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Your Mainspace edits also include adding categories, the 2 in the category means you have edited a category page itself twice.  Crimson navy  (C·S·B) 15:49, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1,300. The majority of which were adding categories. EDIT: Also, your vote is a bit biased Jello. --BassJapas (talk)
