2. Strong Oppose. There hasn't been a single winged administrator to date who didn't end up being desysopped by Arbcom. Call it species profiling if you will, but the track record is clear enough for me. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 03:47, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Neutral

1. While this editor has a history of excellent contributions and a clean block-log piece of newspaper under their perch, I am concerned that if they had the sysop buttons, they may be polly-morphous perverse.--Shirt58 (talk) 11:51, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
