RfA, maybe
Pedro, you kindly gave a decent consideration to my RfA a couple of years ago, and I see you're open to considering a nomination. Could you give me an assessment please? No rush. I've waited two and a half years since the last RfA, there's certainly no call to disrupt the holiday season. Thanks, Bazj (talk) 17:53, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'd be delighted to, and the fact that you've asked someone who opposed RFA 1 is an immediate "tick in the box" to use a horrid cliche. Obviously, with the season, I'm rather focused on family (although I am debating whether to put the kids on e-bay at the moment. Ha! :) ) but will respond as soon as I have a smidge of time.

Rollback Request
I have added something that may be of help to you in evaluating a user requesting rollback already granted in the Portuguese Misplaced Pages. The links will work as well allowing you to easily check this user's contributions.—cyberpower (Chat)(WP Edits: 512,599,657) 23:09, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- Swarm did the request, but thank you for that link - I appreciate your dilligence. Pedro : Chat 07:25, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
- happy to help.—cyberpower (Chat)(WP Edits: 512,685,630) 10:17, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Fæ
A request for comments has been opened on administrator User:Fæ. You are being notified due to your prior participation in ANI, RfA, or RfC discussions regarding this user. Thank you, MadmanBot (talk) 19:47, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- FFS. May as well make it "you are being notified because they edit the same online encyclopedia as you". Which cretin authorised this bot to spam everyone over this? Pedro : Chat 21:07, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
RFA
Many thanks for your kind words! I don't see it as a promotion either - just a chance to do more good. Regards, GiantSnowman 22:53, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
RfA nomination
Hi there, Pedro. I have recently considered submitting an RfA and was hoping for some advice from you. I am wondering if you think I would be ready for adminship and, if so, whether you would nominate me. If you have any questions, I'm happy to answer, and my previous failed RfA can be found here. Thanks. ItsZippy 20:08, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hm...Pedro is definitely a good choice. ;-) My personal advice would be to wait another three months at least. The community generally wants at least six months between RFAs, and may look at two RFAs in a period of six months or so as "power hunger". It's of course up to you, just my 5c (we don't have 2 cent pieces in Australia). Steven Zhang 20:11, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice, Steven. The recent proximity of my last RfA is something that I have considered, which is why I'm asking for advice - if waiting a little while longer would be worthwhile, I'm happy to do so. ItsZippy 20:18, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
- Steven is (as usual) dead right. A NOTNOW Rfa in October is, in the current climate, an indication to go a good few months before requesting again. Of course in my day it was three months between RFA's and five thousand edits was plenty.... </end sentimental bitching>. However looking at the positive responses in both support and oppose at RFA 1 could I suggest maybe April (not the 1st!!!). Keep doing what you're doing and approach me then. I really, and I mean really, regret that we have to play politics over this in terms of timing but it is what it is.
