'''Unfortunately it is fairly clear that this will not pass. Votes were 5 oppose/1 neutral, and that would require more than 15 supports votes. While I don't think anyone wants to spite Rockerball's attempts, he has been Editor'd and de-editor'd twice, the last of which was January 22. Try not to be discouraged though, it is obvious the community still has hope for you yet. -- Shakata Ga Nai ^_^ 20:03, 3 March 2010 (UTC) '''

This requeswt is basically the same reaseons as my previous request (and my past editor requests). House keeping and similar --RockerballAustralia (talk) 05:46, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Comments and Questions

 * You don't even have editor status now after being de-editored by the community about a month ago. All but one of our admins have Editor status; perhaps it would be wiser to try and regain that tool first, before proceeding to this? Tempodivalse [talk]  15:43, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Can I amend this request to include Editor privs?--RockerballAustralia (talk) 22:46, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I suppose, although that would be rather unconventional... Might be easier and better just to do them separately though, to avoid confusion. Tempodivalse [talk]  23:01, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Votes

 * , concerns about the user being de-editored by the community recently. This does not seem like the right time to be going for adminship consideration. Cirt (talk) 16:04, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

 * I have nothing against Rockerball, but still am a bit uncomfortable about this request. I'd rather that he tried requesting Editor status first, and try to regain some trust of the community, and not jump directly to an admin. If this were an editor nom, I'd gladly support, but admins need to have full support of the community to avoid conflicts, IMO, and I'm not sure I see that here.

 * Sorry, but I must agree with Tempo here. -- Mike moral  ♪♫  23:38, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree with TDV. Pmlineditor    ∞    13:30, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
 * sorry, but i think it'd be best if you worked back up the ladder step by step. I'll support you if you start a request for editor. Bawolff ☺☻ 19:58, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
