Nomination
Nominee, please accept or defer the above nomination below this line.

Well, this is a pleasant surprise to say the least, I accept this nomination. Zeta1127 of the 89th Legion (talk) 03:54, October 3, 2013 (UTC)

Reason for Nomination
Zeta has been an active member for some time now and I am pleased to see that his edits are of excellent quality. Not only does he do minor edits, he also imputed new data when this became available. While I most see him on Halo Nation, he is also a very experienced editor on other wikis like Wookieepedia and StarCraft Wiki showing that he is very competent in the editing, knows the tools and how to use them.

Questions
''Nominee, if you accept the nomination, please answer the following questions. It is advised that voters check the nominee's responses before voting.''

1. When did you join Halo Nation?


 * I joined on August 4, 2010, though I have been a formal contributor to wikis, starting with Wookieepedia, since September 12, 2009.

2. What do you believe are your most valued contributions to Halo Nation?


 * My content improvements and anti-vandalism.

3. What do you believe are your most valued technical contributions to Halo Nation?


 * My redirect fixes and utilization of templates whenever possible. I also tried to add bullet point support for the Battle templates and have a draft at BattleTest that only needs columns for the sides, commanders, forces, and causalities, but I don't know enough about infobox templates in order to do that by myself.

4. What do you believe are your most valued contributions to the community?


 * I fixed a missing parameter and other things in the Weapon and Vehicle Infobox templates, which was apparently caused by a redesign of the infobox templates, I also recently merged and redirected the redundant page, ONI Ordnance Testing Facility B5D, to Beta-5 Division Ordnance Testing Facility, and I also recently restored a reference on Armor Abilities that had been lost for quite awhile.

5. If you are administrated, what changes do you propose?


 * I would recommend adding bullet point support to the various Battle and War Infobox templates as I attempted to do myself, several of the embedded YouTube players for the various songs from the soundtracks, mainly from Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and several from Halo 4, got blocked on YouTube at some point and need to be updated, and some of the main page trivia also has broken links due to page moves that need to be fixed.

6. To the best of your understanding, what does administratorship entail?


 * Administratorship involves overseeing the wiki in a way most non-administrator or bureaucrat users don't, in addition to many of the same things normal contributors do.

7. To the best of your understanding, when will you be able to check Halo Nation after you are administrated, in the event that you are?


 * I should be able to check Halo Nation on a fairly regular basis, though I don't always contribute to wikis constantly.

8. What communities are you associated with online, Halo and otherwise?


 * I contribute to several other wikis, and am actually an admin on a few others as mentioned on my user page.

9. What is your familiarity with the Halo universe?


 * I am primarily familiar with the games, though sadly only the Xbox 360 ones, and the short anthology Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe, though I do plan on reading the novels, especially the first six novels.

10. What is your familiarity with Wikia and Halo Nation policies?


 * I fairly familiar with Wikia and Halo Nation policies, primarily due to my existing adminships.

11. What is your relationship with the Halo Nation community and current administration?


 * I don't know what everyone thinks of me, but I help whenever I can. I may multiedit pages, which I have been called out on, but when I do it is always in the interest of improving the page as much as possible.

12. How may users contact you?


 * The easiest way to contact me is via my talk page, since I get alerts no matter which wiki I am visiting, and I do accept emails.
