Shane (talk • contribs) – Shane has been a tireless contributor since he began actively editing mid-march. One of his first projects was also one of his most ambitious, and the Main Page redesign effort is also one of his most visible successes. (You can't miss it.) An offshoot of the main page redesign was the Portals project, which has yielded some interesting navigation pages that continue to be updated. Shane is unquestionably energetic, amassing over five thousand edits in areas ranging from the Main space, the Battlestar Wiki space (working on policy pages), and also the template space (fixing existing templates as well as creating new templates for everybody's benefit). Shane collaborated with Mercifull (and others) to provide color to the project pages with unique icons, and has been a driving force behind the featured content pages (both BW:FA and BW:FP). Most of Shane's conflicts arise from his tendency to boldly forge ahead, blazing the trail (and ruffling some feathers). Shane has improved in this regard, and even his user page has received an extensive overhaul with an up to date listing of the different projects and tasks that his is working on or planning. With regards to the number of administrators, while the current number is sufficient for the offseason, we need to be thinking ahead to the upcoming (eventually) season. Also, there have been some proposals to potentially reduce the login requirements for posting (which is another issue entirely), so there is a potential need for energetic admins who are on around the clock in order to help prevent/cleanup vandalism. Ultimately, the issue at hand is whether or not Shane would responsibly use the admin tools to perform the administrative and maintenance tasks that need to be done. He's already doing the tasks, I'm just proposing giving him the tools.
