'''Requests for adminship''' is the process by which the WoWWiki community decides who will become [[WoWWiki:Administrators|administrators]] (also known as admins or sysops), who are users with access to additional technical features that aid in maintenance. A user either submits his/her own request for adminship (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user.

==About RfA==
+
== Objectives ==
  +
Talk to [[Gilveradin Sunchaser]]; his camp is located in the [[Hinterlands]].
−
The community grants administrator status to trusted users, so nominees should have been on WoWWiki long enough for people to determine whether they are trustworthy. Administrators are held to high standards of conduct because other editors often turn to them for help and advice.
 
   
  +
==Description==
−
; Nomination standards
 
  +
The elf you will need to talk to is Gilveradin Sunchaser. He can name any wine, vintage and all, just by smell alone! He can package up the ripple we need, so you'll need to talk with him. We need six bottles for packaging, two for dad, and how ever many he'll want... and believe me, he'll want some. When you've packaged the ripple and got dad's two bottles, come back here!
−
:The only official prerequisite for adminship is to have an account, have a basic level of trust from other editors, and the ability to show the community how the user will use administrator tools.
 
   
  +
Gilveradin's camp is near some [[high elf]] lodge in the Hinterlands, and those high elves are not good. Trust me.
−
; Decision process
 
−
:Any user may nominate another user with an account. Self-nominations are also permitted. If you are unsure about nominating yourself for adminship, you may wish to speak with one of the other [[Special:Listusers/sysop|administrators]] first, so as to get an idea of what the community might think of your request. Nominations will remain posted until a bureaucrat reviews the discussion to see whether there is a consensus for promotion. The purpose of this time is for users to give their opinions, ask questions, and make comments.
 
   
  +
==Completion==
−
:If your nomination fails, please wait a reasonable period of time before renominating yourself or accepting another nomination. Some candidates have tried again and succeeded within a month, but many editors prefer several months before reapplying.
 
  +
Ah, so you know Malton? He is an old drinking companion of mine. You see, I have found something that transcends the boundaries of artificial treaties and alliances - alcohol. Were we all to slake our thirsts on its blissful qualities, we all would be in a much better place spiritually.
   
  +
Alas, something tells me that your visit here is not to learn of alcohol's redeeming values, now is it.

;Expressing opinions
 
−
:Any WoWWikian is welcome to comment. The candidate may respond to the comments of others. Certain comments may be discounted if there are suspicions of fraud, such as contributions from ''very'' new editors. Please explain your opinion by including a short explanation of your reasoning. Your input will carry more weight if it is accompanied by supporting evidence.
 
−
:To add a comment, just edit the page, Always [[WoWWiki:Wikiquette|be respectful]] towards others in your comments. You may wish to review [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:arguments to avoid in adminship discussions|arguments to avoid in adminship discussions]].

If they accept, create the nomination and ask them to sign their acceptance. To nominate either yourself or another user for adminship, add a new level 3 section underneath the Nominations section.

A'noob has been doing great work around WoWWiki, from normal editing to fending off vandals to even moving articles to correct names or the correct namespace and properly marking articles for speedydeletion when needed. I feel A'noob would make a great addition to the administration and would make good use of the tools provided with. With this said, I nominate A'noob for adminship. {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 14:36, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

:*'''Support''' - A'noob works hard. He has a very high edit count (bot-worthy in a good way), and seems very absorbent of advice. A'noob has demonstrated the responsibility needed to be granted more user rights. He is friendly, which is good. There is always room for improvement in anyone, and saying any of the minor reasons to deny him Adminship that I had to strain to think of would be extremely petty on my part.--{{User:Sandwichman2448/Sig}} 16:03, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

:*'''Support''' - Never had an issue with the guy and he does do a LOT of good quality work from what I can see.

Talk to Gilveradin Sunchaser; his camp is located in the Hinterlands.

Description

The elf you will need to talk to is Gilveradin Sunchaser. He can name any wine, vintage and all, just by smell alone! He can package up the ripple we need, so you'll need to talk with him. We need six bottles for packaging, two for dad, and how ever many he'll want... and believe me, he'll want some. When you've packaged the ripple and got dad's two bottles, come back here!

Gilveradin's camp is near some high elf lodge in the Hinterlands, and those high elves are not good. Trust me.

Completion

Ah, so you know Malton? He is an old drinking companion of mine. You see, I have found something that transcends the boundaries of artificial treaties and alliances - alcohol. Were we all to slake our thirsts on its blissful qualities, we all would be in a much better place spiritually.

Alas, something tells me that your visit here is not to learn of alcohol's redeeming values, now is it.
