- Hello friends! I'm pleased to present Bonzane as our next candidate for administrator. Though slightly newer as an editor comparatively to some, you wouldn't know it. In him, I hope many are able to see the qualities we often want in an administrator—a keen eye for detail, a strong and proficient understanding of policy, an even temperament and demeanor, and most importantly, a love for the community. I think the most beautiful thing about the admin team is that we all have our own specialties and can help each other flourish; I'm excited to see where he might land and what responsibilities he takes on. The tools would be well-used, and Wookieepedia—as big as it is—can always do with more help to ensure we always have someone around to help as people float in and out. Happy May 4th everyone!—spookywillowwtalk 03:31, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

- Happy to support this nomination. Bonzane has been doing some fantastic work around these parts, and it's not gone unnnoticed. From image renaming, to being a good face to new users, they are always around and happy to help. Sometimes the best admins are those who didn't seek out power, and I am excited to see how they prosper in this role! Supreme Emperor Holocomm 05:10, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Optional candidate Q&A[]
- Why do you want to become an administrator?
- It was not something I was actively pursuing, I just enjoyed editing and interacting with the community Wook has. But upon recommendation, I would be honored to take the role of helping and improving Wook however I can.
- In your view, do administrators hold a technical or political position?
- Yes, because the concept of "admins" has been attached to power in many ways, which I hope can change over time. However, that doesn't make admins above the community agreements and its rules. Community will always come first.
- How do you feel admins should use their power/stand in comparison with other users?
- Responsibly and per community consensus always. Quicker actions can be taken against someone who is actively hurting the community and breaking ToS/policies, I suppose.
- Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
- As far as I remember, I never got stressed bc of any disagreements or conflicts. The way I see it is that everyone is here for the betterment of Wook. So we might disagree, but I know they're only doing it in the best interest of Wook too. There's always SH and CT for a wider community discussion and/or consensus if needed.
- Of your articles or contributions to Wookieepedia, are there any with which you are particularly pleased, and why?
- Rodrigu Battle! He was my first and only FA so far...
- What sysop chores do you anticipate helping with?
- Image renaming is definitely something I'll do lol
- How would you react if someone undeleted an article you'd mistakenly speedied? Under what circumstances would you consider it appropriate to undelete an article mistakenly speedied by another administrator, if any, and how would you approach this task?
- Opening up a conversation is always the way to go.
- What is your policy, if any, of welcoming new users? Should you welcome a new user, do you look at their contributions beforehand? What about anonymous IPs?
- Always welcome a new user! It's not much, but it goes a long way in making people comfortable. For anons, I try to converse, or rather explain, to them through edit summary (very limited ofc).
- What's more important to you: consensus or policy?
- While the policy is very important to uphold, community consensus will always come first for me. I mean... policies were made by community consensus.
- What is your wiki philosophy?
- Wiki is a community-driven project, so the community will always be the center of it. Plus, anyone should always have access to free knowledge! (even fictional ones!)
