Wikisource:Administrators/Archives/Samwilson

2016-06 admin
I would like to nominate Samwilson to be an administrator at Wikisource. Samwilson is a user of many years, and has contributed diligently, competently and across each of our namespaces. The ethos for enWS in appointing its administrators has been to focus on the characteristics to contribute and to know when and where to contribute, and I believe that Samwilson portrays the characteristics that we desire. — billinghurst  sDrewth  13:54, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks Billinghurst. I accept the nomination; have read Adminship; and if made an Administrator will do my best to further the goals of the project! :-) &mdash; Sam Wilson ( Talk &bull; Contribs ) &hellip; 07:47, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

 * for missing many edit summaries. Please improve them.--Jusjih (talk) 02:04, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry I don't do more edit summaries. It's just that a lot of my edits are pretty minor typo fixes, and it takes longer to write e.g. "Added missing quotation mark." than it does to do the actual edit. I'll endevour to be more thorough in future though. Is there a policy or help page that mentions best practice in this regard? &mdash; Sam Wilson ( Talk &bull; Contribs ) &hellip; 07:47, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * If edit summaries is the current measure then there are a great number of users, including current admins, who are in trouble.  not really, for the page namespace, I would consider that the proofread or validated flags are sufficient when doing a page in Page: ns, otherwise I put more general statements/keywords like "formatting", template name, etc. I truly want to see edit summaries for complex events, or where something needs explaining, especially with reversions. I cannot say that I have seen a problem with your edits. — billinghurst  sDrewth  11:01, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Yes, I certainly agree that good summaries are important for most non-proofreading edits. &mdash; Sam Wilson ( Talk &bull; Contribs ) &hellip; 14:37, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

 * The measure of suitability for adminship is, "can they be trusted with the tools"; nothing about this editor's edit summaries, or anything else in their editing history, causes me to doubt that they can be. BD2412 T 16:07, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
