===Nomination===
<!--Nominator, please nominate this user for administratorship here.-->
I, [[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]], nominate [[User:Specops306|Specops306]] for adminship of Halopedia.
<br />''Nominee, please accept or defer the above nomination below this line.''

*Nominations for HoTM and Adminship on the same day? I really feel honoured, and thank everyone who has such faith in my abilities, whether it is successful or not. I humbly accept the nomination for Adminship! '''[[User:Specops306|<font color=purple>Specops306]]</font>''', '''''[[User talk:Specops306|<font color=blue>Kora]]</font> [[Special:Contributions/Specops306|<font color=purple>'Morhek</font>]]''''' 00:03, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

**'''Thanks, everyone, who expressed confidence in my abilities. However, I feel that RR raises too good a point: I have next to no experience with programming scripts, which are a part of being an Admin. It is with a heavy heart that I ask to close my RfA - on the lighter side, hopefully I'll soon gain the experience required, and perhaps try again.''' '''[[User:Specops306|<font color=purple>Specops306]]</font>''', '''''[[User talk:Specops306|<font color=blue>Kora]]</font> [[Special:Contributions/Specops306|<font color=purple>'Morhek</font>]]''''' 05:18, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

====Reason for Nomination====
'''[[User:Specops306|Specops306]]''' has shown that he can do outstanding and great work for Halopedia and it's members. He has been a tremendous helper to myself, other Administrators, and even fellow Halopedians. Right now, Specops306 is the only member who I trust to become an Administrator, and the only person who fits the requirements to become one. In addition, he is well on his way to become the [[Halopedia:Halopedian of the Month|Halopedian of the Month]] for April 2008. 

As I end this nomination request, I'll leave you a quote from [[User:Blemo|Blemo]] about '''Specops306'''.

{{quote|If there was an entry on the Recent Changes page that says, "(2 changes) ARTICLE NAME [A person, other person (2x)]", Specops306 is one of the names of one of the people that edited that page.|Blemo on the Halopedian of the Month.}}

*Didn't we just, a couple months ago, elect CT? This seems kinda quick for another RfA.

===Against (10/1 sysop)===
<!--Please vote for this user here if you are opposing this user for administratorship.-->
*{{Oppose}} - With all respect, as I've told SpecOps306, I think this RfA is extremely premature. His most notable contributions have been on the details of the ''Halo'' Universe -- something to begin with and quite admirable, but he has no Featured Article work and has not demonstrated, at least to me, any exceptional work with writing that is easily seen, because none of his major contributions have been lengthy at all. Coupled with his lack of technical expertise, in my opinion, this can not work -- administrators should have at least an intermediate understanding of templates, infoboxes, etc...While he's nice enough, he definately needs more work to show himself as a suitable candidate in my eyes.

*{{Oppose}} Well, I'm not here all that much, but as far as I've seen, our current admins do fine. Also, as far as '''''I've''''', and I stress that, seen him edit, it's not all that spectacular. In fact, I've seen a few times that he undid something just because it was an IP, even though it helped (the most recent was on the Scarab, which I undid his edit). But, back at the ranch, I just don't see why he needs to be an admin. --[[w:c:halo:User:Lordofmonsterisland|Lord of SPARTANs]]<sub>[[w:User:Lordofmonsterisland|<font color="green">LOMI HQ</font>]]</sub><sup>[[User talk:Lordofmonsterisland|<font color=#33FFFF>I here your cries</font>]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/Lordofmonsterisland|<font color=#CC3333>May your works be honorable</font>]]</sub><br /> 19:50, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

*{{Oppose}} Specops306's lack of technical experience is a problem (in my opinion) for an RfA as Adminship comes with access to the more technical parts of the Halopedia such as the MediaWiki: namespace and since new users often come to admins for help.

*{{Oppose}} I do agree with the rest. I have not seen User SpecOps 306 doing much major contributions to be an Admin. But however, from what it seems, it may still be early for Spec306 to become one, and in my opinion, Halopedia seems to be doing fine now(Even though GPT recently resigned), so if he wants to be an admin, that will probably happen in the future, and I will probably go along.

Some of the oppositions are constructive criticism, such as RR's raising of my lack of programming expertise.

Well, tell you what, you actions on agreeing the DoH disgust me, this proves you inexperienced to Halopedia's policy (I am not in the position to critisize as I'm am in no higher position), I can say you are a potential Halopedian who can succeed in ruling Halopedia, but maybe it is not today.

:Excuse me? That was a genuine attempt at improving the quality of Halopedia, and yes, I actually ''have'' seen the policies. The DoH wouldn't have been "Vandal Fighters" per se, but people who worked together to fix things, like the double-links, spelling errors, and spam.

#'''When did you join Halopedia?'''

March 9th, 2007, so I've been here a year to the day!

#'''What do you believe are your most valued contributions to Halopedia?'''

The creation of articles about subjects that got missed by others, such as [[Circumstance]], the [[Ministry of Conversion]], and the newer [[D77H-TCI Pelican]].

#'''What do you believe are your most valued technical contributions to Halopedia?'''

Define "technical." Is that creating new categories for articles? Or delving into the code?

#'''What do you believe are your most valued contributions to the community?'''

Trying not to give anyone the wrong idea, and pointing out people's mistakes in a way that (hopefully) is gentle, inoffensive, and clear.

#'''What is your expertise with programming languages, if any?'''

Sadly very little.

#'''Do you administrate any other Wikia? If so, which?'''

No.

#'''If you are administrated, what changes do you propose?''' 

More logos at the top of articles, like the ones we already have pointing out the era, eg; CH, FoR, FS, GoO, etc - perhaps more for which civilisation they belong to, such as UNSC, Covenant, Forerunner or Flood or misc if its ambiguous, just for clarity.

#'''To the best of your understanding, what does administratorship entail?'''

Ensuring that Halopedia doesnt degenerate into a hive of scum and villainy. Deleting articles that are duplicates, spam or just vandalism, banning users who want to ruin the experience for others, and helping anyone who asks for it (or at least pointint them to someone who can).

#'''To the best of your understanding, when will you be able to check Halopedia after you are administrated, in the event that you are?''' 

Probably as soon as I possibly can.

#'''What communities are you associated with online, ''Halo'' and otherwise?'''

Pretty much just Halopedia.

#'''What is your familiarity with the ''Halo'' universe?'''

I consider my knowledge of the Halo universe to be one of my most definable attributes. I own all of the novels and the games, and constantly re-read them, enjoying them and picking them apart for info.

#'''What is your familiarity with Wikia and Halopedia policies?'''

Intimately familiar with Canon policy and ''Signature'' policy (thanks Manticore!), and consider myself literate with other policies.

#'''What is your relationship with the Halopedia community and current administration?''' 

Been a member for a while now, and I fell that I know most of the people on the scene

#'''How may users contact you?'''

r.pomare@xtra.co.nz But please, no offensive material, because I share it with my family.
