Nomination

I respectfully accept the nomination. :D Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Questions

Any user may ask a question here for the candidate to answer. Feel free to add extra questions based on their replies.


What do you think is the hardest thing for new editors to get the hang of (whether a technical skill, a policy or just the way we do things here); how would you spot they were having difficulty; and how would you help them? Maybe explain what was the hardest thing you've had to learn whilst being here? Gboyers talk 06:08, 23 April 2024

I think that the hardest thing for new editors to get the hang of is how to use different symbols and how to edit properly to be a what would be considered as a good editor. Links, categories and signing their names on talk pages are just some examples. Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Becoming staff isn't a reward for good edits, it's a job and a respoinsibility. How do you feel you could help us, and why should we promote you to become a Moderator? Gboyers talk 06:08, 23 April 2024

Most of the time, I like to cleanup articles. I would know when to clean up these articles since I regularly check the recent edits, and that's the first thing I do when I log in. Also, I would like to make this wiki as best as it could be. One way is to help users who are having a tough time editing, so that they could be good editors someday. Another way is to expand and cleanup articles so that they're very understandable and organized when someone reads them. Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Are there any little tasks, jobs or vendettas you perform around the wiki that you are particularly proud of? Gboyers talk 06:08, 23 April 2024

I do love to categorize articles and images. Also, I regularly fix mission pages, which I also like to do. I also fix links that lead to a disambiguation page, as you can see by the many "disambig link" edit summaries I have. I regularly check images, to see if they have a description, the proper template and the proper categories. Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Could you give one example of what you think is one of the best pages on this wiki, and a brief explanation of why you chose that. It should probably be an informational article, but you could use a list or category or similar if you explain why. Gboyers talk 06:08, 23 April 2024

I regularly pay attention to the GTA SA articles, especially for places and missions, and probably a good example is the Doherty article. It states all things necessary in a clean, organized and understandable way. Also, with some very minor cleanup, the San Fierro and Las Venturas articles could be very well one of the best articles in the wiki. Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Do you have any questions about the wiki, its staff or the role of a Moderator, or any final comments before we make our decision? Gboyers talk 06:08, 23 April 2024

I have no particular questions, but I do thank you for nominating. I promise I'll devote some more of my time to this wiki, even though schoolwork may be heavy. Thanks again! :D Masterpogihaha 13:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
