Forum:Moderator Request - GuardianOfTheWastes

Hello there. For those of you who don't know me, most people simply refer to me as Guardian. I've been around literally every day for three months, somedays more than others, and have made many contributions here. In fact, I have nearly four times as many edits than required, and nearly twice as much in just articles alone. I am also active in the forum, and I feel it is important to give my opinion in Vault matters.

However, I'll stop rambling and get on with why I want to be a moderator. I would like to be a mod (if I may use a shorter term) because recently I have made less edits in the main pages, due to various other commitments: I am an admin in three wikis. However, I have caught many vandals, and due to the chat, had them banned relatively fast. Speaking of chat, I have been in there more often lately whilst I am waiting for something or just taking a break, and I am in there for long periods of time on occasion. As Nemisisx has pointed out in another thread, there is a shortage of mods in the chat at the moment, and it was just today that we had a 'troll' and no-one around to ban them. I regularly check the recent changes, and am (mostly without reason) generally suspicious of new users and anons. Basically, I think the tools will be useful in helping me do what I already do.

Edit count
I know I have an unusually large number of talk page edits, but I enjoy helping new users and having conversations with other users.

Major Contributions

 * I think my key one is the Fallout 1 and 2 characters project. I have recently taken this over, and am currently making notes to finish Fallout 2. I have already checked all of Fallout 1's pages.
 * I have been made an admin on Fallout Answers for my contributions, and I have blocked four users and deleted somewhere in the region of 400 pages.
 * I recently produced images for locations and I have created pages for those that did not exist and revamped those that did. (See Rawhide Saloon and Westin Ranch respectively)
 * I'm also heavily around the forum if you look at various votes and pages.
 * I also check files and add appropriate categories.

Skills
I have good grammar and spelling, I have already used a lot of the tools involved in this role and know my way around the templates. I also know how to communicate in chat. I know the rules, and do warn people on occasion and can also see what is a bad edit and what just needs that little extra.

Fallout
As for Fallout itself, I feel my user page already shows my love for the games :).

Thanks for your time.

 * Yes Guardian is a competent contributor and he is always ready to help anyone =). He is also a major contributor to the Fallout 1 and 2 characters project and an admin on the Deus Ex Wiki, which he has done a lot of works with skills. Also, having some new moderators will be a good thing. Itachou [~talk~] 19:30, September 6, 2011 (UTC)

 * Yes Guardian has always been there, along with BILLYOCEAN and The Almighty One to help me out with any issues I have had on the Wiki. They have all done it with a great deal of respect, and a genuine desire to help and educate. If Guardian is denied this, I will consider it a complete and total failure on behalf of the Wiki. Few, if any deserve it more. GlassJAw667 02:37, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes - You have easily earned my approval. Skål! 02:39, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
