Shane (talk • contribs • edit count • page moves • block user • block log) – Every since becoming a member, Shane has been a relentless contributor with an edit count of over ten thousand (View Count). His projects have been numerous with him directly responsible for the current look of the wiki, including the Main Page redesign. He has become the template guru, fixing templates and creating new templates on demand for everyone else. Shane has had problems in the past, the result of him being bold. However, since the RFC, his behavior as been exemplary, and instead of dampening his contributions, he became a better contributor, by channeling his exuberance into projects guided by the Think Tank process. With Season 3 about to start, more users signing up everyday, and another millions hits in little more than month by next weekend, the need for another administrator is very much upon us. Although the current state of Battlestar Wiki is the result of the community, Shane has been more than willing to contribute his share and more.

Questions for the candidate
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
- 1. What duties, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Battlestar Wiki:Project List's for a list of projects.
- A.
- BW:Tem – Keeping a tab on the templates everyone must use for quick and easy generation of “standardized” things that the Wiki uses
- BW:FA and BW:FP – Keeping tabs on the nominations
- BW:PORT – Keeping the portals clean and expanding it as needed
- BW:News/BW:CP – Cleaning Duties Only
- BW:MAIN – Keeping the overall look of the site “pretty”
- BW:CAT – Category orginzation
- BW:i18n - Gathering Support for translation of Battlestar Wiki
- I believe that most “projects” need the attention of everyone so not everything would be overlooked if I became an admin, but these are just the ones I would focus my energy level too.
- A.
- 2. Of your articles or contributions here, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- A. I am really pleased with Colonial One. I was happy that I was able to contribute heavily to a BW:FA article. But I am only pleased with all the articles in which all users partisapate in. All aticles are quilified that I am pleased about. While 10,000 edits is amazing, helping out fellow contributors to the overall success of this site helped me reach this goal. I could not have done that without their help as well.
- 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
- A. I beelive the RFC helped me contribute tot he site. With the creation of the Think Tank I been able to deal with the problem that was lacked in when my contributions were questions. My strongest disagrements would ahve to be against peter, but I think we both have settled on a mutal agreements. I think everything between me and the oldtimers has been worked out, and I hope to continue to do that while being an administrator.
