User:EVula/admin
- Note: I recently was informed that this page looks like crap in Firefox. Not sure why, as it works just fine in Safari, which is what I use. I may try to fix it at some point.
Everything you need to know about me as an admin/bureaucrat, plus everything I need to reference to be an admin/bureaucrat. (purge)

If you're unhappy with some admin-ish thing I've done...[edit]
...I'd recommend you drop me a line on my talk page.
Actually, I'd recommend you take a deep breath, make sure I actually did screw up (entirely possible), then drop me a line.
Please, do not email me about admin stuff; I try to keep everything on-wiki if at all possible. If I've blocked you, there's always {{unblock}}; I also keep all blocked user talk pages on my watchlist, and will check back on them a few hours after I've left my notice.
Also, I am open to administrator recall. To see my criteria for recall, read User:EVula/opining/admin recall.
My admin info![edit]
History[edit]
I was made an administrator on November 7, 2006. My RfA closed with a vote of 62/0/0. Near as I can tell, I'm admin #1,047.
My first RfB was closed as non-consensus on July 1, 2007; the second was also closed as non-consensus on 24 December, 2007. My third RfB passed (122/1/2) on 3 June, 2008.
I was granted Oversight privs after my election on February 16, 2009.
