Wikinews:Requests for permissions/Administrator/Lyellin

Since no one else is putting themselves up.... ;). My main work has been on en, w:User:Lyellin. In general, I do more organizing and small things than write full articles, although I do have pet projects. w:Cathedral of Learning is one. I'm getting started working on wikibooks as well, especially the Wikijunior project. In terms of Wikinews, I popped on the first day and have basically inhabited the IRC channel and preyed on Recent Changes all day. I will state that I am a student, so sometimes workloads get heavier- cutting down on Wiki time. I don't know if that should be factored in, but just so everyone knows.

Addition: My goal with Wikinews is to work on pushing articles through the review process, as well as being somewhat of a checker for English from our non-native editors. I'm on the East Coast of the US, so I'd be a different time zone than Eloquence. Lyellin 15:53, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- I haven't seen any problems caused by lack of administrators yet. If I'm not missing some problem, I think we should wait to draw from a larger community. --119 04:31, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Withdraw objection as vandalism has been not-infrequent after the Wired mention. --119 09:00, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
