Willy on Wheels

[edit]

Final (18/5/0); Closed by Glacier Wolf on 02:19, 12 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm nominating Monsieur Wheels de la Cruz for his outstanding use of the move function to bring to light those lesser known articles desperately in need of attention. His love and care of the wiki is beyond all others.  ALKIVAR™ 06:17, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I'm accepting this nomination on behalf of User:Jimbo Wales. That's right--I'm a sock. Yeah, baby, yeah! Willy on Wheels 06:53, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Support on wheels

  1. Support on Wheels. I, Flameviper12 on Wheels, think Willy On Wheels would be the greatest Administrator on Wheels that WikiWheelsPedia has ever seen. On wheels, of course. Some Guy On Wheels!
  2. Support, obviously  ALKIVAR™ 06:19, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  3. Oh, hey, what the heck. — JIP | Talk 06:20, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  4. Support. I know Willy will make a wonderful admin. AngryParsley 06:21, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  5. Support, very active user. --Bishonen|Talk 06:26, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  6. Excellent user. --Slowking Man 07:00, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
  7. Absolutely, he has been a tireless contributor for quite a while and he probably can make use of the ability to move pages more easily. Stockpuppe 07:09, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  8. Perfect candidate ````
  9. YES!!!--Comrade Nick @)---^-- 07:54, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  10. EVERYONE ELSE HAS HAD MORE SEX THAN ME WHOO-OO-O DOES ANYONE ELSE GET THAT FEELING? -- Kizor 09:37, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  11. Support. Note that edit count may be deceptively low due to most of user's edits being page moves. Would benefit from being able to move pages to pages with histories. — Knowledge Seeker দ 13:07, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  12. Support, tireless contributor. - BanyanTree 13:10, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  13. Support yet again. In view of Knowledge Seeker's excellent point about Willy's deceptively low edit count, it seems fair for me to balance it by adding deceptively doubled votes, and I encourage other voters to follow suit. This one is for the heart-warming time Willy moved my userpage to "Bastard administrator". --Bishonen|Talk 17:38, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  14. Support on Wheels! Not enough can be said about this user's contributions. --iMb~Meow 18:18, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  15. Oh, yeah! Neutralitytalk 21:34, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)

  18. Of Course! Raggonix on Wheels

Oppose on wheels

  1. Sorry, but I didn't have to go through enough redirects to get here; will support once Willy moves this page to at least five new locations. --Michael Snow 17:24, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  2. Hedley 18:14, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  3. His experience is an inch wide and a mile deep. -- Cyrius|✎ 18:21, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  4. Wikipedia work is too one-sided. Mgm|(talk) 21:33, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
  5. NO. GOD NO.

Questions for the candidate on wheels
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
A. Ideally, I'd like to mobilize all of Wikipedia, and other wikiprojects. Would you believe that, despite all my efforts, there are still some wikipedia articles that are not on wheels?! This must be recitified post haste.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. Well, I gotta say, moving All your base are belong to us to All your base are belong to us ON WHEELS! may have been my piece de resistance.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and will deal with it in the future?
A. Never on wheels.
