You are a remarkable editor in many ways. You would be a good administrator, in my opinion, and appear to be well qualified. You personify an administrator without tools and have gained my support already!

Hello. I was active as an IP editor for three years during 2016 to 2018. I saw your activity in page move venues, and ANI. I was never active in AFD as there is generally a prejudice against IP there. You showed promise, knowledge and temperament to become an admin. Biggest thing i was impressed by was your communication, followups and cheerful messages to recently inactive editors. I had a few names in my mind whom i thought would become admins. Lot of them have been admins, rest have gone inactive including paleo neonate, rentier and elmidae. I was thinking of coming back but my IP ranges are generally blocked. I had recently posted about that either on teahouse or AN or ANI, can't remember. I am definitely not going to create an account and i don't have much free time either. All you have to do is to increase your activity again — you were already on the right track and now you are an admin on Marathi wikipedia too. Best of luck!

Thank you. But I am not considering for RfA. Also, even if I thought about it, you forgot about the most important thing: I am low on content creation. Most of edits to mainspace in last 2-3 years have been minor, either reverting vandalism, or gnoming. This would tank almost any RfA. But thanks again for your kind words.

Well, I passed my nightmare of an RfA without much content creation but it was just barely. You might have better luck at administrative elections where the scrutiny is less intense and there are not voting sections where opposing editors can go on and on about what they don't care for in your editing history. You still have questions but removing the voting statements cuts down on the vitriol. By the way, I think you'd make an excellent administrator so I'd encourage you to consider it. You sure have enough editing experience, more than the average RfA candidate. Liz ^{Read!

hehe. Thank you. This means a lot. It's difficult to gauge one's own contributions. Maybe I might consider running for election, or old-fashioned RfA after all. —usernamekiran (talk) 03:07, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241124030700","author":"Usernamekiran","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Usernamekiran-20241124030700-Liz-20241124022800","replies":[]}}-->

@Flashyguy98: Hello. I dont know much about rugby, but if you meet this notability criteria for sports people, someone will eventually create an article for you. You may also request an article (if you meet the notability criteria) at Wikipedia:Requested articles/Sports. Also, there are several scams/cons going on, Wikipedia never asks for money for creating article, or for protecting it. So do not hand money to anybody for editing Wikipedia for you. Also, kindly take a look at WP:AUTOBIO. —usernamekiran (talk) 17:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241217172500","author":"Usernamekiran","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Usernamekiran-20241217172500-Flashyguy98-20241215184700","replies":[]}}-->
