Your RfA
[edit]Hi Wikisteph888, I'm sorry to inform you that I've closed your request for adminship early because it was unlikely to succeed. For users to be granted admin status, they have to show that they are trusted members of the community. Individual editors each have their own standards for adminship candidates, but here are a few tips that may help you pass the next time round:
- Wait a bit longer before your next request. Many Wikipedians think that the length of time that users should be active on the project to get a firm grasp of all the policies and guidelines is roughly 3 months.
- Try to get some more edits. Administrators need to show they have a thorough understanding of policy, so it would be a good idea for you to contribute in wikipedia space, article space and talk space to show you can communicate with others.
You may wish to take a look at the admin coaching program, which would allow you to have your own coach who could personally direct you along the right path, or consider an editor review, allowing other users to comment on your edits and give you ways to improve. The guide to requests for adminship provides further considerations to make before applying again. Let me thank you for your contributions so far, and if you follow the above advice, there is no reason why you can not have a successful RfA in the future. Acalamari 16:41, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Image:Wikisteph.JPG listed for deletion
[edit]An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Wikisteph.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.
Committed Identity
[edit]Your committed identity is clearly messed up. You have not specified a valid hash function, and the key as far as i know would be impossible to generate. If you need help getting an actual committed identity, feel free to shoot me a message on my user talk page. good luck. Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 19:30, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
