RfA Blurb
The guy's great at reverting vandalism, would make useful suggestion as to some big changes that a lot of people feel would be good for Wikia, is helpful, friendly, polite, is courteous enough not to make immature sexual jokes in Wikis where that's all too common, displaying maturity, is very, very good with skins, and a guy with so many abilities just begs to be made an Administrator. --Thomas Rattim (talk)

 * 6) From what I've heard he's a very trustworthy person, and other RfA's with even less Central edits have passed (including mine way back when, back before I stopped caring about being an admin here), so I see no reason to oppose. -- Skiz  zerz  19:40, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 7) A bit geeky, but trustworthy. :) -- Phillip ( talk ) 19:57, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 8) I utterly despise Darthipedia and 99.99999999999999999999% of its content, but I love me some Geeky. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 20:17, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 9) Since I've branched out into the larger community here, Supergeeky has acted both as a friend and mentor to me. He's helpful and extremely knowledgeable about wikia, but also very down to Earth as far as interacting with other users go. He's an invaluable member of the community, and I think he deserves this more than anyone else I know. - Billy Arrowsmith (Talk), 20:22, October 22, 2009 (UTC)

 * 11) Supergeeky1 is someone with a long experience of using sysop maintenance tools. Altough I recognize that he's a controversial user to some people, I'm also quite adamant he'll use his tools in good faith. As far as countering vandalism goes, there is really no need for another admin. however there is nore to an administrator than countering vandalism. Furthermore, Geeky has a mind of his own yet he respects the consensus. Every wiki he's been a sysop on has gained from that. While the thought of having to share him with central makes me a bit sad I'll support this anyway. His open minded spirit would be a nice change to the wannabe-yesmen central seems to attract. This is one of those "its good for the wiki" kind of things. That is all.  Madclaw  (Talk) 20:56, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think he has potential. - Wompus78
 * 1) Heard some good stuff. It seems like he will do a good job.- Chosen One So the Prophecy says... ''' 21:59, October 22, 2009 (UTC)

 * 3) For great justice. Plus, Darthipedia and Club Penguin helped me to get to where I am. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 22:24, October 22, 2009 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Per my reasoning for the last RfA, more or less. That and little to no activity here at Central. -- 18:16, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) I also oppose to this RfA. I really can't see very much RfA; and for my last revert, it seems that no more "anti-vandalism" admins are needed. There are also lots of breaks in between his edits. No offence, of course. Mark (Talk) • (Contribs) 18:22, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) *None taken. :) I agree I have been somewhat inactive on Central lately, through no one's fault but my own. &mdash;  supergeeky1   \  m  /  (  Talk to the Geek  ) 18:33, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) Not really many edits over here on central, so I'm going to oppose this one. -- 18:35, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 5) Reverting vandalism doesn't need admin rights; undo works just fine. As for "helpful, friendly, polite, [and] courteous" . . . In my experience, I don't believe I've yet seen that side of him. And though editcount means little to nothing, I feel that 67 contributions to Central is simply not enough.-- Austin (Talk) 18:44, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 6) I'm sure I'm not the only one who can't help thinking this whole thing is some kind of bizarre joke. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 18:45, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 7) *It does seem that 4/5 voters are Darthipedians. Mark (Talk) • (Contribs) 18:51, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 8) **Jack's a former Janitor, and a contributor on numerous Wikis - you can't tar him with that brush alone. Unit hasn't contributed to Darthipedia properly at any time, and not at all for quite a long time. He's more of a Star Wars Fanon user. And I'd imagine that's because Geeky is a Darth admin too, and we appreciate the full range of his work. --Thomas Rattim (talk)
 * 9) **@Mark: Strange huh? -- 18:59, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 10) ***Is there a problem, with members who have been under his leadership voting for him here? Hmmm? Joshua (Talk) 19:23, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * 11) Reverting vandalism and making suggestions aren't something that require adminship, nor has he done much of that already on central. I can't say I've seen him behave helpful, friendly, polite or courteous either. I know irc and Wikia are different things, but that's usually where I hear of this user and have seen him troll there. He has been blocked a number of times on Darthipedia (I know some of those blocks are jokes, but can't tell if they all are or aren't) and twice on Wookieepedia for personal attacks. I know there is tension between Drrthipedia and Wookieepedia, so that block may be biased, but I can't imagine he was behaving as Tom described in the nomination. Maybe he's changed since then, but if he's been blocked, unlocked and reblocked in the past, I wouldn't put changing back past him. -- Deltaneos (talk) 21:57, October 22, 2009 (UTC)

Comments
Thank you very much for the kind words, Darth tom. I gladly accept the nomination. While I have butted heads with several users, both on-site and on the IRC, I feel that I've handled these conflicts with both maturity and respect. I've been not only a sysop, but a bureaucrat as well on various wikis for several years now and I've managed to help strengthen these sites for the greater good. Overall, I believe Wikia is a wonderful host and I would gladly accept having a larger role in its "conquest". :) Cheers! &mdash;  supergeeky1   \ m  /  (  Talk to the Geek  ) 18:33, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
