| ==RfA Mini-Guide== | |||
| The following is a very basic guide to ] (RfA). This is intended to be an informal, minimalistic guide. For the full guide to RfA, please see the ]. '''Note: This is not policy.''' | |||
| ===For nominees=== | |||
| *Please be aware RfA can be a harsh process sometimes. People will look at, and may criticize, everything and anything you have done (or not done, for that matter). | |||
| *People sometimes oppose for no reason at all. People are not ''required'' to explain their position. Don't feel bad, it happens to a lot of people. | |||
| *Ask yourself if you are ready to be an Admin. There are a lot of responsibilities. Do you want them? | |||
| *If someone nominates you, feel free to decline if you do not think you are ready. Decline politely and keep up the good work. Even after the process starts, you can withdraw at any stage. | |||
| *If you are doing a self-nomination, make sure you set up the nomination correctly and don't '''support''' yourself. People tend to have higher standards for self-noms, and messing them up can lead to oppose votes. | |||
| ====What contributors look for in an Admin nominee==== | |||
| People may have their own ] when considering nominees, but in general, editors tend to look for: | |||
| *More than 1000 edits within a wide variety of namespaces | |||
| *At least three months with the project | |||
| *A willingness to do "dirty work" | |||
| *A civil manner with no recent personal attacks, POV pushing, vandalism, or edit warring. | |||
| *An enabled email address | |||
| *Good use of edit summaries | |||
| Don't take my word for it. Check out what happened in some ] and ]. | |||
| ===For RfA contributors=== | |||
| Strictly observe ]. Please see the ] for information on voting directions, decorum, and demeanor. | |||
