User:Strikerforce/RfA Standards

While most definitely not all encompassing nor a line in the sand, I will generally consider the following when I evaluate a potential candidate for administrator status.

1. Has the candidate been a registered Wikipedia for a minimum of one calendar year, with at least 2,000 edits in that year?
2. Does the candidate consistently (at least 90%) use edit summaries?
3. Does the candidate have a clean block history - or, if not a clean history altogether, is the last six months completely clean AND a clear understanding of why their previous block(s) was/were applied shown?
4. Does the candidate have a clearly defined purpose for wanting the mop?
5. Has the candidate contributed to a balanced variety of areas on Wikipedia? In particular, has the candidate shown the ability to contribute quality edits to written prose, since - after all - we are here to cultivate an encyclopedia?
6. Does the candidate show a level head, when dealing with other users, both in collaboration and in conflict?
7. If self-nominated, is the candidate showing a genuine interest in helping the project... or are they seeking the mop purely as a source of recognition?
8. Score of 925 or above, here.
9. Above all else, would the granting of the mop to the candidate be a net positive for the project?
