I am applying to become a Wiki commons administrator to address the challenges facing the Rwandan Wikimedia community. As a native speaker of Kinyarwanda, I have noticed numerous mistakes and inconsistencies on commons that undermine the quality and accuracy of its content. Unfortunately, there are currently no administrators from Rwanda who are proficient in Kinyarwanda and understand the cultural nuances required to manage and curate this vital resource effectively. By becoming an administrator, I aim to enhance the credibility of the platform by ensuring accurate edits, combating vandalism, and fostering a supportive environment for contributors. My passion for knowledge-sharing and dedication to promoting Kinyarwanda make me eager to serve the Wikipedia community in this role. (a short statement why you (or this person) should be an admin...) Your signature's timestamp for a self-nom is when the candidacy starts. For non-self-noms, the candidate should "accept" with a short statement and sign it... that timestamp is when the candidacy starts... Adygrafix250 (talk) 23:43, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose Just a terrible nomination. When a self-nom candidate cannot even rightly format their own RfA, I can't support. Thanks for the passion, nonetheless. _Regards, Aafi ^(talk) 05:40, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose I don't see why you'd need the mop in order to fix the mistakes and inconsistencies you've mentioned. I also don't see any edits in your edit history indicating that you've already done work in those areas. Almost all of your edits are uploads or edits to your uploads - there's no vandalism fighting, no creating/editing translations, very minimal activity in DR, etcetera. Finally, I have concerns that a significant number your those uploads - everything in the Kandt House Museum series - may be COM:FOP Rwanda violations.

•  Oppose I'm sorry, but you do not have the level of experience or involvement in Commons processes that is expected of an administrator. You also seem uncertain of whether you're applying for adminship on Commons or Wikipedia; they are not the same. Omphalographer (talk) 06:11, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose insufficient experience, sorry. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 07:12, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose No experience.--A09 (talk) 12:28, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose Very insufficient experience. --Prototyperspective (talk) 12:33, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose per above --TenWhile6 12:37, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose The RfA candidate has written that By becoming an administrator, I aim to enhance the credibility of the platform by ensuring accurate edits, combating vandalism, and fostering a supportive environment for contributors and that the candidate has noticed numerous mistakes and inconsistencies on commons with respect to Kinyarwanda content. It might be true that we are handling Kinyarwanda content poorly, and I don't doubt that having more people with native knowledge of that language would be quite helpful in improving the Commons—doing this is a noble goal, and I would like to thank the RfA candidate for this. But if the candidate wants to help fix these inconsistencies, then the candidate already has the power to do this as a normal editor—one does not need to be an administrator to fix captions and revert vandalism. As such, I would encourage the candidate to do this as a normal editor, and work towards the goal of improving Kinyarwanda content. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 14:40, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose per above - we would always appreciate your help over at rwwiki though! Ternera (talk) 14:46, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Aafi. Self-portrait on userpage looks like AI-generated? --A.Savin 16:12, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose Seemingly a ChatGPT nom. --Bedivere (talk) 16:13, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

   Agree 100% AI generated probability according to GPTZero. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 16:41, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose Per Bediviere, Waqar, Aafi, Red Tailed Hawk, and The Squirrel Conspiracy. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 16:40, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose I appreciate the enthusiasm of the candidate, but they need experience, and substituting a poor grasp of English with ChatGPT is just tacky. Bastique ^{☎ let's talk!} 01:51, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose Experience could advance! N. LA LÉGENDE (talk) 14:32, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose With less than a year of experience and few contributions overall, that doesn't make sense at the moment. There is a lack of experience. And: See a comment with question below. -- Triple C 85 ^{| User talk |} 19:32, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

• """As a native speaker of Kinyarwanda""" please check COM:FR. we need more people for this area. before requesting file renaming user right please be sure you did good file renaming requests according to policies. modern_primat ^{ඞඞඞ ----TALK} 14:45, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
  • They appear to fit the criteria for file mover in number of edits. FM requests that they made from September look good to me Abzeronow (talk) 18:34, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

     Agree with Abzeronow. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 20:13, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

• @Adygrafix250: What were you thinking - just 3 months ago - with this edit: [1]? You have deleted almost the entire main Galleries page (−12.467) and replaced it with content that is useless for this page. It was reverted with the comment This looks very much to be violation. In other words: Vandalism. An administrator should prevent vandalism, not cause it. Greets -- Triple C 85 ^{| User talk |} 19:42, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

  Vandalism requires intent. To me that looks like a test edit by a then-still-inexperienced user, presumably with the intent of setting that up where it's supposed to be (which is not where the edit was actually made). Still not a great look, but not vandalism. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 20:34, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

Ok. I don't want to assume any intention either. Just wondering what he was thinking. At this point he had already been logged in for a few months and already had around 1000 edits. Then why a test on the main page? -- Triple C 85 ^{| User talk |} 21:09, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
