Candidate statement

Long time GWW user, first time RFA. I patrol recent changes fairly often. On two occasions in the past 60 days while recent changes patrolling, I encountered a vandal in the middle of a spamming spree ([1], [2]), which I could have helped cease immediately if I had access to the sysops tools. Besides dealing with vandalism, I can also assist the remaining active admins with the other admin duties, such as modifying the abusefilter to allow account creation. --Silver Edge 08:06, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Support

1. Support. In my opinion the ideal sysop personality. As objective as can be. Haven't seen him lose his cool. Always willing to self-revert if he notices a mistake or to listen to others' opinions. Steve1 (talk) 09:02, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
2. Support. (Other than the user's stance on the position in the past,) why has this not already happened? Level-headed, objective, active, insightful, knowledgeable, interactive. Qualities that I feel are very welcome in any sysop. - Infinite - talk 10:38, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
3. Support. One of the more active users of this wiki.. would support Anon-e-mouse (talk) 15:08, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
4. Support (obviously). It'll be quiet without me, and silver edge is the best user that we have as a plausible candidate. --Chieftain Alex 23:47, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
5. Support. Silver Edge has taken upon himself a large proportion of the responsibility of the maintenance of the wiki, and should be given the necessary tools to make that job easier. --Santax (talk · contribs) 12:40, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
6. Support. What Infinite said. Sardaukar 21:31, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Oppose

1. He does not discuss much with others. While good editing is good, it does not justify how he'd relate handling any other issues. Rodan (talk) 02:14, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Neutral
