I've seen AllyUnion do great work to articles, but also catch vandalism on some of the quieter articles. I think adminship would help him in this edeavour. As of writing this he has 1763 edits. JOHN COLLISON [ Ludraman] 10:17, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I accept this nomination and I hope I can do my best for the community. -- AllyUnion (talk) 18:00, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)

5. Very dedicated. It appears that he would find a lot of use for the rollback function. And he's a fellow Southern Californian, so this would assist in our plot to conquer the world.--Slowking Man 22:44, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)

11. Hmm... is that hummingbird sitting on marshmallows or something? ^_^ (support) ugen64 03:27, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC) - that's what happens when you type without actually looking at the image...

Neutral

Questions for the candidate
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. Primarily vandalism, and maybe some deletion.

2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?

A. Template:Geo-stub - It was one of my first suggestions for stub sorting that got used very heavily. I also I am proud of Cerritos, California and how it has been greatly expanded due some of my edits.

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. I have gotten into an edit conflict over the Template:University of California but discussed out the layout and design with the other user on the Discussion page. You can see the evidence on the talk page. I don't think any user has caused me stress in anyway, as I feel that it is necessary to discuss changes before they occur. If I wanted to make major changes to something I'm not completely certain of, usually I make those suggestive changes by listing it on the discussion page first. I firmly believe that through discussion with many users leads to a comprehesive article that is more than likely which is a neutral point of view. I try to avoid edit conflicts by presenting my ideas or additions on their discussion page. Sometimes I feel what I write might be a biased view, so cleaning up what I write from the discussion page and moving it into the article seems to me a good way to develop an article further.
