Wilkommen! Calling all NZ Wikipedians! Contact me!
PoinDexta1 - a class of its own. It's 10 December 2024. A great day to start editing!
Kia Ora. I am a New Zealander user and avid Wikipedian, the latter for around 3 years. You can usually find me around the new pages and vandalism hot-spots, standing staunch and ready to pounce on those naughty vandals ... hehe. I have recently re-designed my user and talk pages, so if I have missed anything, please feel free to give me a shout!
I am not an administrator and I quote why:
I just wanted to say that becoming a sysop is *not a big deal*.
I think perhaps I'll go through semi-willy-nilly and make a bunch of people who have been around for awhile sysops. I want to dispel the aura of "authority" around the position. It's merely a technical matter that the powers given to sysops are not given out to everyone.
I don't like that there's the apparent feeling here that being granted sysop status is a really special thing.
I won't nominate myself, but feel free to nominate me. I may even say 'no'.
