Charles Matthews (talk • contribs) - SUL - YAEC

Charles is a greatly experienced Wiki...ian, and sysop on enWP, with other high level expertise and exposure in that wiki. He has been undertaking a high level of work on our DNB project, and multiple interwiki, and helpfully watching over us from another time zone. I believe that with the administrator tools he will prove to be more useful to us, especially in the vandalism detection and reversion space. Therefore, I'd like to nominate him for adminship. -- billinghurst (talk) 15:01, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Some history - I have been a wiki admin for six years, first on Sensei's Library, and since 2004 on enWP, where I have also served as Arbitrator. I was going to go gently as far as considering being an admin here was concerned, but the current rash of vandal attacks seems a good reason not to be that reticent, and accept the kind nomination. I have been fairly active here in 2009 (having got through around 1% of the DNB articles, numerically speaking). I did hundreds of conversions of Catholic Encyclopedia articles on enWP, during 2008, and most of the DNB articles I do are for immediate use (16th or 17th century material), new articles or filling out stubs. I'm also a co-author of How Wikipedia Works, and that can stand in for my general ideas on wiki stuff, though I'll certainly answer any questions people may have.
