EggRoll97 (talk · contribs · they/them) – Hey everyone! I'm EggRoll97, and I joined in 2018. My activity back then was somewhat sparse, dropping off somewhat due to current world events and simply being busy outside of Wikipedia. I've made something of a comeback since about 2023 or so, and have been gnoming in the background since, finding myself doing a variety of different things, including editing filters here as an edit filter manager since April and helping out with false positives globally with the global version of EFH since a few months ago, and am fairly active in the ACC process as well. I have no alternative accounts, have never edited while logged out, and I have never edited for pay. EggRoll97 (talk) 04:59, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Questions for the candidate

edit

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. Why are you interested in becoming an administrator?
A: I'm mainly asking for the mop to view deleted revisions. Within edit filters, some vandalism is in deleted revisions, and being able to access that without needing to ask an administrator to email a copy would be helpful. I also plan to help in the AIV queue and continue doing what I'm already doing as an editor without the mop.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I would say I'm particularly proud of being able to establish WP:EFM as policy, which of course was always a collaborative effort, but I'm proud to say I took part in it.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: I would not say I've been in any significant conflict with anyone. On the occasion that I do find myself in opposition with someone else, I've tried to make the best attempt I can to explain myself in a logical manner.

You may ask optional questions below. There is a limit of two questions per editor. Multi-part questions are disallowed, but you are allowed to ask follow-up questions related to previous questions.
