Hey, the name's [[User:Miles.oppenheimer|Miles]]. I've been a regular contributor since I joined in April. My [[Special:Editcount/Miles.oppenheimer|edit count]] shows how much I've added. I am also a rollback'r, which I think is just another sign that I would be a qualified administrator. I've been a regular anti-vandal, and I know that I would be even more effective at this were I a sysop. My [[SmashWiki:Requests for | Hey, the name's [[User:Miles.oppenheimer|Miles]].

My [[SmashWiki:Requests for Rollback/Miles.oppenheimer|rollback approval can be found here]], and the concept is pretty similar for me: the position just increases my ability to improve the wiki. | ||

*'''Neutral with a lean toward support.''' I'm reasonably certain that, based on what I've seen, Miles would make a competent administrator. He seems generally rational, level-headed, willing to compromise, etc., all good traits, and thus the "lean toward support." The only thing major thing that worries me is that, on the admittedly limited basis of some comments he's made on this RfA, he doesn't always seem to consider the implications of his words. For example, ''I'' personally see his "yet" comment for the joke that he seemingly intended it to be. I also understand what he ''meant'' when he disputed Kperfect's vote, but the fact is that perception often supersedes reality, particularly, I've found, on Wikis where semantics are often of paramount importance. Those kinds of offhand, seemingly innocuous remarks can have remarkably far-reaching consequences. As such, and because I don't feel I know Miles well enough to either fully support or fully oppose, it's a neutral vote from me. – [[User:Defiant Elements|<font color="black">Defiant Elements</font>]] [[user talk:Defiant Elements|<font color=black><small>''+talk''</small></font>]] 04:23, 30 November 2008 (UTC) | *'''Neutral with a lean toward support.'''
