==1st request==

===[[User:Zmario|Zmario]]===
I believe I should be a sysop for the following reasons:

*Contributes Everyday
*Fills in Universe & Character Info
*Uploaded Many Pictures
*Made Almost all of the Event Matches
*I am a very helpful person
*I discuss my ideas
*I do not use profanity much (not even at all)
*Updates Music, Sticker, and Trophies info

If you ask, I'd say I'd be a good canidate for a sysop. Ask around. I'm sure people will vouch for me. [[User:KazMx|KazMx]] knows that I update alot, ask him! Thanks for your time and consideration for reading this. Even if i don't get sysop status I will still do my part to help smash fans everywhere :).

:I strongly '''oppose''' giving this user any administrative powers. Not to be a bitch, but this user's contributions are a regular nuisance and I often have to go back and clean up after them. Many pages created by this user end up getting deleted. I mean, it's not all bad contributions, but there's too many iffy ones to let me think that it's a good idea to make this user an admin/sysop.

:I'll go with neutral, leaning oppose: I'm not sure the candidate wants the tools for the right reasons... --[[User:Sky2042|Sky]] ([[User talk:Sky2042|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Sky2042|c]] · [[User:Sky2042|w]]) 06:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

:I'm going to have to '''oppose''', doesn't seem like the right time or reason. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] 04:09, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

:I'm very '''opposed''' to this person becoming a sysop.  Most of his pages are complete jokes or just one step past that.  And his comments on the tier forum about deleting the page on the wiki about tiers make me worry that he will just go around deleting any legitimate page he disagrees with while protecting his jokes and pet projects. [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] 03:39, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
::Not long after posting my previous comment, I can across even more damming evidence against this person.  I recently had to mark a page he made for deletion because he openly said on the talk page that he made the whole thing up because it "sounded right."  This isn't acceptable action by a normal user, let alone a sysop.  I'm still '''opposed''' and I haven't seen any other users of the wiki who support this person becoming a sysop.  I believe that it is time to close this discussion.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] 18:01, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

===Zmario===
Once again I am running for the sysop nomination. I hope I could become a sysop because of the massive amounts of time I am on wikia. I know a lot bout all three games and own the startegy guides. I am always decribed as creative and outgoing. That is why you have seen me more obn lately. Once my school lets out can come online all the time and contribute to the already great Super Smash Bros Wikia! I want to be able to ban/block someone for spamming or doing other non-appropriate things on articles. I have been here since march and I know my way around the site. I upload pictures and find and flush out baddies. If you ask me this is the new Improved Zmario. Zmario v0.2 BABY!

:'''Support'''. Eh, you've made enough edits. [[User:Kperfekt722|Kperfekt722]] ([[User talk:Kperfekt722|talk]]) 10:54, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

:'''Oppose''' - You are far too quick to anger, and attempting to circumvent the block that Silver placed on you was inappropriate (not that I agree with the block, naturally). --[[User:Sky2042|Sky]] ([[User talk:Sky2042|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Sky2042|c]] · [[w:c:wow:User:Sky2042|w]]) 07:01, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

:'''Support'''. I'm none too familiar with Zmario's past, since I've only been here for two months. However, I know that he's worked hard during all the time he's been here. Sure, he may have once personally attacked others and made joke pages, but I believe he has changed. He has acquired responsibility, a trait that is very important for adminship. Heck, I believe it to be a requisite. We can all learn to forgive and forget, right? Zmario has admitted that he's a new person, and his contributions have grown. Let's give him the power of adminship. - [[User:GalaxiaD|GalaxiaD]] ([[User talk:GalaxiaD|talk]]) 18:13, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

*'''Oppose''' Maybe next time, I don't want a fellow sysop with temperament issues. --[[User:Charitwo|Charitwo]] 06:56, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' Well, I'm changing my opinion. Judging by your attitude most of the time, and daring to ask if an system operator can ban other system operators, which leads to malicious ideas. Plus, you're far too easy to anger.

::I'm sorry to have to say this, but it's just too soon after your ban for me to be sure that you've changed.  Keep up the editing and working with the wiki and maybe have another go at this in a few months.  Right now, however, I have to '''oppose'''.

*'''Oppose''' This guy keeps teetering on the fence between "helpful" and "dear God, what are you doing??" While contributions have greatly improved, there have been many rules broken, multitudes of trivial articles created, and a lot of petty arguments and problems with users. Maybe after a few years of maturation, this one might be ready for something like this. Maybe.

'''Support'''He's made a lot of good edits. Yes he gets angry, but don't we all? Don't we all? [[User:Ike6481|Ike6481]] ([[User talk:Ike6481|talk]]) 20:32, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

'''Oppose''' - You already applied, failed and were banned in the interim. Since, you have demonstrated little more than the ability to cater your contributions to avoid being banned again. And somehow, you don't know how to use a talk page to keep a discussion all in one place either. How did we end up with MULTIPLE people applying for SysOp positions who don't understand how to hold a conversation through utilizing a simple user tool like the watchlist? Honestly, do you people even know what a SysOp is? Why do you want this position, really? What good is it going to do you in your day-to-day SmashWiki contributions? It's not even worth it for me to spend this time writing an opposing voice on the issue, but there's so many people who come on here with a shoddy application that doesn't really say anything and then they go around to all their buddies and ask "hey, come comment on my sysop thing." And of course, not wanting to be rude, they blindly follow the orders and drop in to say "Support - he makes good edits" without the slightest idea of what a SysOp even is. It just gives me a headache. Please, focus on your work as a user--if you're an enthusiastic editor, odds are you'd be better off learning how to use the buttons you already have without having to worry about a bunch of extra ones that could end up breaking the entire wiki in the wrong hands. --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 20:49, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

'''Support''' I'm pretty new here so I haven't known about Zmario's past, but he makes more then enough edits to become a sysop. [[User:JtM|JtM]] ([[User talk:JtM|talk]]) 21:41, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

:I'm going to have to make a move to '''close this one as failed'''.  Some users seem to support him, but none of the current sysops do.  Any objections to closing this should be placed below this comment.

:These should all be closed, really. --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 05:16, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

:I really think this should still be up till we get a leaning towards one side... [[User:Kperfekt722|Kperfekt722]] ([[User talk:Kperfekt722|talk]]) 05:02, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

::It doesn't matter. The balance of supporters and non-supporters has nothing to do with who is selected. Ever since people began calling people out to come "vote" for them, this process has looked like nothing more than a popularity contest. --<font color="000023">'''[[User:Randall00|RJM]]'''</font> <sup>''[[User talk:Randall00|Talk]]''</sup> 05:21, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

:Well, randall for once i agree with you. at least partially anyway. due to people being told to run for sysop this page has been a lot bigger, but in anycase, zmario hasn't let his temper get out of hand in a while, and he is one of the (if not the '''''most''''') active contributer on this wiki today. [[User:Kperfekt722|Kperfekt722]] ([[User talk:Kperfekt722|talk]]) 01:04, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

'''Support''' Creating certain articles that actually helped me. Sorry for my fanboy personality. [[User:ItemHazard|ItemHazard]] ([[User talk:ItemHazard|talk]]) 01:14, 24 June 2008 (UTC) ItemHazard

Uh, I have yet to see why he should be voted. He's too quick to anger, and I have a feeling that he would be malicious. ([[User:Wolf O'Donnell|Wolf O'Donnell]] <small>([[User talk:Wolf O'Donnell|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Wolf O'Donnell|contributions]])</small> 20:12, 26 June 2008 (UTC))
