Familypedia:Requests for adminship

This page is to discuss nominations for adminship. Currently only a handful of active genealogists are administrators here. Anyone who would like to be given the extra facility that goes with being a sysop or bureaucrat may nominate themselves or another contributor. See the "ideal" procedural details on Wikipedia:Requests for adminship.

''I guess one necessary rule would be for only logged in users being able to vote.  &mdash;iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 00:26, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

AMK152
AMK152 has made significant contributions to the site and has a flair for UI improvements. A lot of these UI features can only be controlled with access to the mediawiki namespace, but unfortunately only admins can edit these pages. Besides the need for admins due to a projected spike in contributors, I am nominating AMK for sysop so he can join Robin and I in the drudgery of sysop dutes. Misery loves company and all that. ~  Ph l o x  23:04, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Briantice

 * I would like to serve. I have only been on here a few days, but have posted a few hundred articles, i.e.:
 * Benjamin Dudley Pritchard (American Civil War hero)
 * Francis Adam Goodman (1827-1898)
 * Category:Grafschaft-Bentheim

and have added to a few existing articles and discussions. I have also made several article submissions to wikipedia, i.e.
 * Singapore, Michigan
 * Del Langejans
 * David Otis Fuller

 * And he's done more - continuing the quality - since 17 July, so maybe it's time! Robin Patterson 20:21, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Neutral

 * I don't know the user much, but as a general principle, I would like folks to be around for a little while, so their involvement--and the community's knowledge of them--evolves.IFaqeer 02:50, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Remarkably energetic contributor (now listed at number 6, which is pretty good for someone who has been here barely a year). Full of good ideas, and sometimes in a position where admin powers would save him and others some time. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 02:34, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
