Wikinews:Requests for permissions/Administrator/Tempodivalse

Want to see if I can get into this early. I know I've been here for only three weeks, but I have amassed over 1300 edits since then, about 900 of which are in the main article namespace, a number that is higher than that of some administrators. I also have 3500 edits at the English Wikipedia, and have been there for half a year. I thought that I could simplify things a bit if I had sysop status (if elected, I'd mainly do things like correcting mistakes in archived pages, tackling the archive backlog, and deleting nonsense pages).

Questions

 * - If you successfully become an Admin, will you help out with admin tasks such as archiving articles older than seven days, proposed deletions and closing deletion discussions? Cirt (talk) 18:06, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that's already answered in the nom. --SVTCobra 18:12, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Just to clarify, yes, I will help out with those things. ♪ Tempo Di  Valse ♪ 18:40, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Tempodivalse has proven himself an excellent contributer over the last few weeks, and, with his edits on WP going back much longer, I already trust this user, although the lack of experience has concerned me, I am leaning towards support. Anonymous101talk 17:21, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Tempodivalse is a strong editor and clearly the tools will be useful to him. I understand the concerns that he might not have the length of time that is usually asked of admin candidates; however, I feel that he is is such a good editor here and at Wikipedia, that he can be trusted as an admin. --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 17:29, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * - Good contributor, but first contribution here was 21 November 2008, would like to see a history of positive contributions to this project for a bit longer track record than that. Certainly could support in a couple months or so if same types of positive work here continues. Cirt (talk) 18:04, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Tempodivalse is an invaluable contributor with a very high work-rate. I do not want to discourage him or her. However, Tempodivalse is just getting familiar with the Template messages and I would like to see Tempodivalse around a bit longer before the tools are bestowed. --SVTCobra 23:56, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Too soon. -- Shakata Ga Nai ^_^ 08:06, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * PS. I dislike people stealing my name coloring. Confuses me.  Leads to people getting accidentally banned. -- Shakata Ga Nai  ^_^ 08:07, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * potential to make a good admin, just applied a few weeks too early. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:31, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 * no doubt a fantastic contributor, but I echo the above comments - I just feel it's too early. Keep it up and you will be elected with no hassle in the new year. -- Sken   my talk 14:18, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
