Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Call for candidates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to the candidate sign-up page for the October 2024 administrator elections! The administrator election process has been approved for one trial run. Anyone wishing to become an administrator may use this process, or the more traditional Wikipedia:Requests for adminship process. There is no difference between the administrators chosen through either method.

Administrators help keep Wikipedia running smoothly by performing administrative tasks that need restricted tools such as blocking editors, protecting pages, and deleting pages. If you feel you are ready to take on the role, we encourage you to add your name below.

The only requirement is that you be extended-confirmed on the English Wikipedia; however, the community's expectations of administrators are much higher. Prospective candidates are advised to familiarize themselves with these expectations. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.

To submit a candidacy, you should create a nomination page using the box below. This subpage will be very similar to a Wikipedia:Requests for adminship subpage, containing the nomination section, the three standard questions, and a general discussion section. Once you have created a nomination add yourself to the list of candidates below. Please make sure you are available for the discussion phase from October 22 to October 24. The call for candidates will close on October 14, 23:59 UTC.
