Alternative History:Request for user rights

This page is for requests to join the TSPTF (user rights). Currently there is no set limit to the number of Constables. There can only 1 administrator for every 1,000 articles (Lieutenants and Brass combined). Calls for new administrators will be made each time 1,000 more articles are created or a current administrator has retired.

Rules

Mscoree
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to nominate someone, but I'd like to nominate Mscoree for constable. He’s a great help to everyone, both within his extensive map game, Night of the Living Alternate History, and on the wiki in general. I’ve seen first hand that he’s pretty dedicated to the wiki and he’s a pretty good writer. He cooperates well and I think he’d make a good addition to the admin team.

 * He's a nice guy and helpful, but I don't think he has the experience yet. I'd say a bit more time would do everyone well. 04:37, July 5, 2013 (UTC)

"Since he joined Mscoree has been a great asset to my development on the wiki. He has been consistently polite and respectful to me, given constructive critisism where needed and warm encouragement when I took ideas to him. He has kept an ASB map game terrifyingly plausible. No mean feat. His sense of humour has caused me to smile on more than one occassion. So we have here a user who is human. In every sense of the word. Broken yes, but let he who is without sin cast the first stone. No takers? Quelle suprise! He is approachable, hard working (an edit count of 3752 edit at the time of typing) and plausible. He may be a new class of user, but I think we need more like him.

 * Nomination not valid unless the user in question accepts it. Lordganon (talk) 06:46, July 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have removed Ed's name from the support list, as you cannot sign up to support a nomination you make, as well as Tykur, who has not been on the wiki for the necessary month yet. Remember, you need to have a hundred or more edits and have been here at least a month to be able to vote on such things. Tykur, you may add your vote again on the 17th, and no earlier.

 * LG I will not argue with you about the following, but I wish to take this opportunity to make a statement. I have wanted to say this for quite some time now. If it results in my blocking then... I'm not sure I care anymore, though i would like to appeal or at least say farewell to my friends. Please bear in mind I have gone out of my way to make the following statement as inoffensive as possible, whilst including my feelings:

''Lordganon however has if I'm honest, slightly terrified me. His prospensity for scaring of new users apears large, at least from the standpoint of a new user. If I come to him with an idea, I come back with an answer, and a highly detailed one at that, which I applaud. However it is always why it can't be done. It may be that all my idea's are ASB, but neither does he give any sort of ' I-can-see-what-you-are-trying-to-do-so-here's-how-you-could-plausibly-achieve-at-least-something-similar'. I find him often rude in his responses, and whist his usefullness in terms of general editing cannot be denied I find him too much like Javert (I will assume the reader has a modicum of intelligence. If not then he is from Les Miserables). There is, I admit a time and place for such actions, but surely not on a wiki! I mean not that he should be banned, only I ask, indeed, Lordganon I know you will read this, I beg of you, accept us for who we are. Only Human.''

''Valjean, the thief, helped much. Let Mscoree be. Yes, even a Constable."''

Impeachment
It is entirely possible that a member of the TSTPF may neglect his duties and/or abuse their power. If this happens they must have their user rights removed. To keep it fair, the following procedure has been adopted.

Rules

 * User who feels a TSPTF member should be impeached from his position, must first contact the TSPTF on their talk page with their complaint and attempt to work out the issue with them.
 * If user refuses to accept any compromise from the TSTPF he may then bring up the TSPTF member for impeachment.
 * Impeaching user must explain why he thinks the TSPTF member should have his user rights removed.
 * Registered users' votes must have 2/3rd supermajority to impeach a TSPTF member (Only users who have been registered for over a month—from the day the nomination is put forth—are counted).
 * TSPTF members’ votes must have a 2/3rd supermajority to impeach a TSPTF member.

To view past impeachments, see the archive.

Reasons
There are only a few recognized reasons why a TSPTF member should have his user rights removed:
 * They are not actively participating as a member of the TSPTF.
 * They have not been carrying out the responsibilities they volunteered for.
 * They have have not been fair, restrained, and/or constructive in their dealings with other editors.
 * They consistently refuse to follow the conventions and guidelines of this community.

Note: One of these reasons alone is probably not enough to impeach a TSPTF member. Consider that before demanding an impeachment.
