2008-09 admin
AD has been active around Wikisource since May 2008, and has over 900 edits; most of these to the main namespace. He's a regular participant around WS:PD and WS:S, and would be able to help out further in such areas with admin tools. He's also added a great deal of poetry to Wikisource, and has helped clean up other texts, and the like, so he's got an understanding of how things work on the ground. AD has a good knowledge of copyright and is a Commons admin, so he could help out with image related stuff here to. Furthermore, he's an admin on EnWP and Meta, so he's been around for a while in general. He's civil, helpful, collaborative, and hard working. I think he'd make a good admin.

- Candidate's acceptance: Sure, I'll go for it. I would hope the community will review me honestly and constructively, and use this forum to express their thoughts on my activity here. I here accept with much gratitude to my nominator, who has written a splendid statement. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 07:51, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

- Support Loads of good contributions here and on other Wikimedia projects. AD will be more useful to WS with admin tools. FloNight (talk) 15:13, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

- Resignation

The following discussion is closed:
resigned March 2010
- Anonymous Dissident is not a current administrator. According to meta:User:Anonymous Dissident/Matrix, "I have resigned my administrative positions on all wikis except the English Wikipedia" as a March this year. Apparently we didn't notice, and no-one bothered to let us know. Hesperian 12:35, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
- He had told it to us on his user’s page on March 5th, and that he will come back in the future. --Zyephyrus (talk) 17:47, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
- I suggest that we leave things as they are at present but his powers be restored as and when he requests.--Longfellow (talk) 20:20, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
- Agree with analysis above by Longfellow (talk • contribs). -- Cirt (talk) 00:23, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
- Concur, with above. No objection to restoring privileges on request. Jeepday (talk) 17:33, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
