You can't discard my years of experience by saying "actions are actions" because, in all honesty, I've seen more as a leader from flame wars engulfing wikis to kindergarteners overrunning communities. I've been through difficult situations, and have already learned how to deal with them and build up the wiki. My long history on this wiki also commits me fully to it, and this community is definitely where I'll be staying for as long as I can. I won't have any month-long hiatuses in the foreseeable future, either — I can guarantee activity for quite some time. Indeed, as Ursuul has reminded us, I can't really refute this. I don't have as much experience in these matters as you and that's an advantage of you becoming Senior Admin. Nevertheless, I am not an untried newb and have dealt with similar things successfully. Banarama wrote: I would also like to bring this up again, Patrik. While you have definitely contributed to many projects and are beginning to manage some, I've taken a leadership role in many projects such as the Map Project, the Page Moving Project recently, a number of tournaments, and more across FANDOM. Once again, you've done more of this than I have, but as you said earlier, is this a debate of pure numbers of projects lead? And regarding projects lead across FANDOM, I've played an integral role in two (here and here) large-scale manual merges, not to mention spearheading a few cleanup projects.

You've done an excellent job, but I hope you aren't implying that I'm not "thoroughly committed to improving this wiki". I've spent months moving pages, improving conceptions, standardizing Mainspace pages, and a host of other tasks. I really don't think that anyone here can say either one of isn't thoroughly committed. The only question is how committed. DroneDestroyer wrote: Ah, Patrik? I've been in staff for less than half a day. Judging by the amount of work you did in just one week as Intern I think we can all agree with Bana. ;)
