User:TheNuttyOne/Adminy stuff

Random collection of stuff that I think a user needs to be an admin, and the stuff I think I have from that list.

Qualities admins should have

• Activity. Admins should be online as often as possible in order to handle disputes and vandal attacks without delay.
• Levelheadedness. Admins should be able to remain calm in stressful or irritating situations.
• Knowledge of policies. Admins should obviously know all of SmashWiki's policies.
• Lack of bias. Admins should be able to remain non-biased in arguments so that they can be settled without argument.
• Friendly but strict attitude. Admins should be warm and welcoming to new users, while still being able to keep control over the wiki.
• Good standing among the community. Admins should be well accepted by the community to avoid unnecessary drama.

Qualities I think I have

• Activity. I am almost always online daily for several hours at a time.
• Lack of bias. Unless I feel that it casts a bad image upon the wiki, I am open to compromises or even letting go of my opinion when necessary.
• Friendly but strict attitude. I can generally control a large group of people without them all despising me, so I'd like to think that's a good sign of this.

Qualities I have some of

• Knowledge of policies. There are a few tidbits I've missed but I have a good idea of all of the policies. This would be an easy problem to remedy.
• Good standing among the community. I like to think most users like me, but I can think of a few examples where I've left a bad taste in others' mouths.

Qualities I think I need to work on

• Levelheadedness. I do tend to get irritated easily - while it's never really shown on SmashWiki besides a few choice scenarios, it is something that I struggle with elsewhere.
