Endorsements
[edit](Two endorsements are needed for online ambassador approval.)
- Support. I hate it when people Vandalise and write false information on articles. writing false information about certain subject or topic without proper research. and people vandalising article or topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Miszatomic (talk • contribs) 22:15, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - I'm sorry, mate. I honestly looked for a reason to support. But only 800 edits, 97% of which are in the article space; as well as the slew of CSD and PROD notices on your talk page show that you're not quite ready to take on an online ambassador role. I also see you've never edited an article talk page or a user talk page, also a concern. I'd recommend you keep working on Wikipedia, learning our policies, and working with new users (the teahouse is a good place to start) before taking on this vital roll. Good luck! ~ Matthewrbowker Make a comment! 02:17, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose Matthewrbowker said everything I wanted to --Guerillero | My Talk 16:06, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose What the others said above is part of it, although I also think that if you coming into this role with the attitude of preventing people from writing unsourced material, preventing vandalism, and hating it, you're doing it wrong. That's not to say that it's a bad thing, but you should have other reasons for doing this. Also, the spelling and grammatical errors and not signing this properly, along with supporting yourself, are some other minor reasons to oppose you at this time. Sorry, but come back in nine months, and you may have a better chance. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 03:57, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
