#'''Support'''. I actually do share many of the concerns Nathan Johnson has below. A lot of Ymblanter's AfD comments sound like the arguments given at [[WP:ITSNOTABLE]], which is not a desirable trait to have in an admin who is going to be closing AfD discussions. However, after looking at the big picture of his AfD contributions I could find plenty of counterexamples that demonstrate that he does know what is required by the notability guidelines. (For example, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/GEAR_Video&diff=532572010&oldid=532455217][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Abdur_Razzaq_%28barrister%29&diff=536166160&oldid=536114171][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Calvin_Jung&diff=536164958&oldid=536133887].) I am more concerned by [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/New_Quantum_Theory&diff=535876611&oldid=535774525 this], which is not a valid criterion for speedy deletion, and I hope that the candidate will wait until he has more experience with speedy deletion before working in this area in an admin capacity. Having said all of this, on the whole I find Ymblanter to be a thoughtful, considerate, and productive editor, and I think making him an admin would be a benefit to the project. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 14:11, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

#'''<strikes>Oppose</strikes>''' '''Support''' <u>Nominee seems to have handled my criticism with a pleasant lack of drama. I'm not a regular in AfD (especially in the past few years) so I may have been idealistically hasty and demanding. Incidentally, I do very much agree the view on templates.</u> In general, the nominee seems like a good and hardworking volunteer, and I originally thought I'd go neutral even with the following. If it was close I'd probably do neutral. But I'm sorry, to send the right message I have to oppose. I was disappointed with his vote the other day at [[Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Mohammed_bin_Rashid_Al_Maktoum_Foundation]] (still open). If the ruler of Dubai announces at the World Economic Forum that he'll put $10b into a foundation (making it the [[List of wealthiest charitable foundations|6th largest in the world]]), then you need to do a little research before !voting delete to show that you really understand the situation. The AfD nominator did not appear to be much work, and Ymblanter's simply said "agree per nominator". It took me 5 minutes or so to find multiple sources such as partnerships with the UN, books for Gaza children, scholarships, etc. I'm not sure if that's typical for his AfD research. I hope not, and a cursory review seems to show some evidence of more due diligence. But I'm sorry, I cannot agree with the underlying judgement. Meanwhile !votes for keep for a borderline [[Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Kukerpillid|Estonian band]]. I realize AfD is tiresome work and so I'm sorry to be harsh.

#::Nathan Johnson has indicated that he [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Nathan_Johnson&diff=prev&oldid=544457554 will not be responding, at least to me]. I'm not sure that this jives with his bullet point above accusing the candidate of avoiding discussion. To be blunt, Johnson's vote is flat-out wrong.

#:::His opinion might be right or wrong - but he's entitled to hold it. The 'crat will decide. I don't think NJ is likely to change if badgered, so can I suggest leaving the dead horse alone and just chilling? [[User:Peridon|Peridon]] ([[User talk:Peridon|talk]]) 21:14, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

#: Conflicts with multiple users are an integral part of Wikipedia culture. If a prolific editor avoided any conflict with other users, then s/he can be a good editor. It is a good admin who s/he cannot be, because this rôle implies participating in conflicts. [[User:Incnis Mrsi|Incnis Mrsi]] ([[User talk:Incnis Mrsi|talk]]) 20:28, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
