| #'''Support''' - Your answer to Question 2 made me a little nervous, but I think you are just expressing enthusiasm for the RfA. In looking over your contributions going back a couple of months, as well as your deleted contributions I see someone who is doing some sound work in admin areas who could benefit from the mop. As the opposition in your first RfA was largely reluctant pending more experience, and as you took that advice to heart, and have since gained six more months of solid experience, I can't see any reason not to support you. ] (]) 14:03, 23 May 2008 (UTC) | #'''Support''' - Your answer to Question 2 made me a little nervous, but I think you are just expressing enthusiasm for the RfA.

Voice your opinion (talk page) (0/0/0); Scheduled to end 13:00, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Carter (talk · contribs) - I first created my account in December of 2006 and have loved editing since! I have come to learn most of WP's policies and better yet, learned where to enforce them. It is very important to me that WP stays neutral, encyclopedic, and most of all, accurate. I CONSTANTLY run vandal tools and any other tool I can get my hands on to fight the growing stream of vandalism. I try to go the extra mile in warning and reporting vandals. I wont just revert the vandalism. This is my second self nomination as you can see here and I've had a slight name change since. Something I definitely took away from that unsuccessful nomination was that I needed to spend more time in AFD which I have tried to do. I'd like to think my input helped save a lot of articles. It has made me a better editor in looking for what can get an article deleted and to try and avoid those things when writing my own articles or substantially editing. Anyways, here goes.

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Misplaced Pages as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
- 1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
- A: I will primarily work in the user blocking and page protecting spaces while delving into AFD as much as I can. I hope over time to be involved in every facet of WP. I love what it is, and hope to keep it that way. There is really no telling though where I'll spend most of my time though. I'll go where I'm needed most.
- 2. What are your best contributions to Misplaced Pages, and why?
- A: My best contributions fall into the vandalism reversion category. They are my best because I feel they upheld WP's ideals which is why I want to become and admin in the first place. It might sounds strange, but I enojoy reverting vandals, warning them for the 4th time, and where warranted, reporting them and watching them get blocked. I feel strangely satisfied :). Is that wrong? I'm kidding about enjoying it so much of course. Anyways, I'm also particularly proud of Arizona's Portal that I created. It offers people a glimpse into my great home state that they wouldn't have had otherwise. I've created some pretty great pages as well. See Salt Lake Tabernacle organ, Western Savings and Loan,and the Saginaw Bay Yacht Club to name a few.
- 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
- A: Of course I've been in conflicts in the past, and what frequent editor has not? I have tried to be neutral, but was unsuccessful at some points. A lot of us feel strongly about certain subjects, and I made my opinion known, was corrected, and am the better editor for it. I am now VERY cautious when editing to make sure my edits meet all of the guidelines set forth. I'd like to think of myself as the 'friendly editor'.
