  1. Sorry. I understand I haven't been here actively for some time, so if I recap on what's happening my view may change. However, I've always felt that somebody should be given admin rights if the admins really think they'd be beneficial with the rights. It's worked with people like Staffan and LM96 although I don't know if it could work with CPM. However, once I get a recap I'll probably take off my against view and will stay indifferent. This is my current stance. --Tigernose TalkContribs 16:18, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
  2. Comment: I currently have decided to stay against, however I believe CPMaster would make a good admin, but we really don't need any more right now, wiki problems are low, almost no vandalism. --Seahorseruler <staff /> (Talk Page) (Contribs) 17:22, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

  • idk which one to go with but anyways I guess I will only make a comment...Franky bob 23:37, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
  • I know if ClubPenguinMaster was an administrator, he would use his new abilities to help make the wiki much better. Cp kid 01:08, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
  • I'd just like to ask CPMaster, how do you feel you would benefit the wiki with the new abilities given by admin rights? It's just that not everybody needs admin rights, and this way you can convince me to vote for. Thanks. --Tigernose TalkContribs 22:50, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Sharkbate (+17)

Nominated by Seahorseruler and Tigernose
Sharkbate has been on this wiki for almost 3 years, and has been an admin and crat before, and when it still existed, he was one of the 2 webmasters. He is one of the most experienced users still here, besides Tigernose, Hat Pop, and I, I mean, who else has been here since early as 2009 or 2008? Not many people. Sharkbate was one of the most dedicated admins, and still would be if he were an admin today. The reason he was demoted actually was because he had to be away for an extended period of time and eventually we had to replace him, but now hes back for good and is ready to help us! --Seahorseruler (Talk Page) (Contribs) 22:40, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

  • Called me a liar about a serious problem - Jammasterd CP 16:42, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

  • Previous adminship/b-crat experience tells me to say yes. --LordMaster96 23:16, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
  • He was an admin before and was pretty good when he did that. I think he deserves another shot at it! GO SHARK! --Chill57181 Talk to me Master of the pencil 00:20, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Shark has been very helpful in the past and is currently busy with his own projects, but I think he could prove to be very helpful by being an admin. --ClubPenguinMasterTalk 02:13, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Shark is a very nice person, he was an admin before, he is a great Wiki-coder and he has greatideas all the time! --Brookelas Talk!
  • Why would anyone not want you to be an Admin? You're amazing and hey- who else do I know that's making a whole MMO?! -- ShrimpPin ( Talk ) You will read my story. That is not a question. 21:40, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
  • To what Jammasterd said: I called you a liar because you lied. Makes sense, does it not? Ask anyone. Nobody's even heard of 'leg cancer'. Plus, you said you can't really edit, but you can go on for CP's parties. What's more important? Making your leg 'better' or playing CP? Pick one. --$harkbate Talk Page 15:35, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
    • It is the truth! There is NO such thing as leg cancer, and if there was, and we do not know about it, YOU WOULD NOT BE PLAYING CLUB PENGUIN!' So, Sharkbate deserves to be an admin, as he called you a liar for a REASON Jammasterd! --Brookelas Talk!

Nando144 (+11)

Nominated by Seahorseruler and Hat Pop
Nando144 has been working very hard for months at this wiki. He has almost 2 thousand total edits made in the last 30 days (according to Special:ActiveUsers), and clearly has the kind of attitude we want to see - hard working, friendly, and helpful! With the recent resignation of LordMaster96 we need a replacement, and Nando is definitely the best match! (Note: He has been given admin rights before the vote finishes due to a low number of admins after LM96's demotion. If the vote passes, he will keep the rights. If the vote fails, he will lose the rights. This is a very special and rare case where this would happen. We normally wait until a vote is finished before promotion.)

  4. Andrew (Minecrafter) (Freeciv) 17:28, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
  5. I think in normal circumstances, Nando probably wouldn't have administrator yet. However, in this state of admin drought and emergency, we need all the help we can get. Nando is the best guy for the job. Although I totally agree with PenblooeR, I think that we need Nando at the moment, and he has already showed off his maintenance skills very well. But yes, I think if were in a stable state of affairs then Nando would probably have to demonstrate his debating, moderation and etc. skills more. --Tigernose TalkContribs 18:59, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
  6. We don't know his true potential yet, but from what I've seen, he definitely seems like an awesome person to be granted adminship. --LMGT Talk to tha donut dood! 19:25, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

  • I don't see why not. --Hat Pop Bunny Ears Rule! 17:17, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
  • Even though Nando is my friend, I'm not sure if he's ready yet. Yes, he's a great helper, he's always active, editing 24/7. Improving articles, uploading images and such. However, being an admin is way more than just that. An admin has to have debating skills, has to solve problems, and fights and etc, and I don't know if Nando has these skills yet. I'll think a bit more before voting. --PenblooeR © 2011 17:22, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
  • I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I agree with Pen. I'm going to stay neutral. Good luck Nando! :D -ShrimpPin
  • I don't care what anybody thinks whether or not he's ready, but I originally suggested him. Hey hey, look where we are now. And lol admin drought... so you guys left me to do the admin tasks before I resigned. Can't believe it... looked like we only needed 1 admin the whole time. --LordMaster96 18:54, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Temporary

There were no requests for temporary adminship in 2011.

Unsuccessful

ShrimpPin (-1)

Nominated by Seahorseruler and Tigernose
After we moved from the old wiki, ShrimpPin started to help out there, not aware completely of the new wiki. By himself for weeks, he handled all of the massive amounts of vandalism and spam that wiki gets. That is impressive. And I even think its impressive. Its hard to believe one person could do so much. After, ShrimpPin joined the new wiki after he realized that the community is here and not there. Having Shrimp help us out would be a really huge leap for the future of this wiki! --Seahorseruler <staff /> (Talk Page) (Contribs) 22:45, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

  • Nothing against, he is a good person but I think that he need to work more on this wiki to show his work. Nando144 Talk with me! 20:00, 11 August 2011 (Brasilia Time)
  • Oldwiki b-crat/adminship experience is not a "big" factor, but I've seen his activity there, and have talked to him on IRC before. He seems worthy of being an admin here, and he has admin qualities (he's nice, talks things over, and has a positive attitude). --LordMaster96 23:16, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Like Sea said, he handled the massive spam and vandalism of the old wiki nearly single-handed for several weeks. Something tells me he would be a great help to us. He is also working on Planet Polar Bear too. --Chill57181 Talk to me Master of the pencil 00:20, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Of course! He'd be a perfect administrator! He's very helpful, he's constantly on IRC, and he's a good editor! He would never abuse his rights. I have no doubt in my mind he'd do a great job! --$harkbate Talk Page|Try out my Contests 00:30, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Um, I really like both of the admin candidates, but I really don't think that we need to replace our current admins with new ones. Sorry. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cp kid (talkcontribsedit count)
We're not getting replaced - they're additions to the existing admins. :) --LordMaster96 01:01, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Same thing as Nando144 I also don't think he's ready. Franky bob (Shop!|Talk!|Blog|Library|Help me with Galleries!) 01:53, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Just don't feel like he's ready yet, needs some work on this wiki... --PenblooeR © 2011 01:58, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Sorry Shrimppin. You're a good user, it's just that I think you need to make a few more edits on the wiki. Cp kid Talk to meh! Look at meh pages! 02:09, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Shrimp has proven to be a worthy user, admin, and bureaucrat at the old wiki. I believe that he would make a good admin. We also need more admins as the community is getting bigger. --ClubPenguinMasterTalk 02:13, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Although he would make a good admin in a lot of ways, he is not very experienced. I would be for if you waited about a month or two before nominating him. On top of that, Sharkbate's vote will pass, so I think 6 admins is enogh as Vandelism is low. --Brookelas Talk!

I want to change my vote to against. Shrimp is evidently a mature and intelligent user who is a great editor and is already experienced with anti-vandalism. This ticks a lot of boxes, but it does not tick all. Being an admin stretches far beyond your physical rights, it is also imperative that you are good at discussing, debating, making decisions, having a good knowledge of how our network and community works and also being creative in coming up with new ideas.

This kind of thing is noticed naturally by the administrators, and is not something that can be judged in a trial. This is why I am against Shrimp becoming an administrator now, he simply has not be here long enough. This is unfair towards all of our loyal users who have waited for ages for a chance at administrator. I can think of a few who have a good chance of becoming one soon, but this is because they have been here for a long time. We would be returning to our pre-metamorphosis days if we're giving administrator to people who have only actively edited for a month.

Again, I have nothing against Shrimp, on a professional and personal level. But for Shrimp to be nominated for administrator so early (yes, I know, I nominated Shrimp with Sea) is unfair to this wiki and to the users of the wiki who have waited so long and worked so hard. If it were my choice, I'd say we should wait a month or two before we try and nominate Shrimp - because in that time we can figure out the other aspects of adminship.

An administrator can be good at anti-vandalism and maintenance, but can also be weak at discussing, debating and making key decisions as a leader. I think that we leave this for a month or two, we can observe Shrimp how it turns out. But we haven't given this nominee enough time, and it's already caused a bit of an outrage with those who have been here for so long. Remember, we don't want to go back to the days when we gave admin to people who were here for a month.

I wish all the best for Shrimp, but my vote is against, sorry. --Tigernose TalkContribs 17:54, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

  • Sorry, but my initial vote for the "for" was a hard decision was make. After this long statement by Tigernose, I do have to agree with what he's saying. First of all, you're still in the "transition" mode from the old wiki to the new wiki. The new wiki is much much different than the old wiki, and until you can prove yourself worthy on this wiki alone, I'll be on the against. As TN said, there have been more experienced users on this wiki who have not yet been given a chance at admin. I think it's time you get more experience on this wiki alone before being nominated again. PS, like the RFR "Remember that being a rollback on another wiki is not a valid qualification." The same thing should apply to administrators too. --LordMaster96 23:25, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Bureaucrat requests

There were no bureaucrat requests in 2011.
