• I'd like to nominate Muriel Gottrop. She's been here for almost 7 months, quite active for the past three, has made a ton of edits and original contributions to the Roman history sections (see user page and contributions list), and generally been level-headed and responsible. --Delirium 12:39, Oct 29, 2003 (UTC)

• My God! What a way to start a day! Well, i thank everybody for support, encoragment and ego-boosting. Its very nice indeed to see my work acknowledged by so many wikipeers, when i'm used to see my friends and family get bored to death with my research on these topics. But i have my reservations about this. Its not that i dont want, i do!, but the thing is that i have a PhD to do. In Geology, not the Romans... I spend already too much time on the wiki without further excuse. I'm afraid the only task i would do is to delete junk and perhaps cooperate in the Main Page editing (I dislike edit wars and i do not wish to get involved in mess by protecting/unprotecting pages.) But... this makes me very proud! Muriel Gottrop 10:12, 30 Oct 2003 (UTC)
  • Let me think about this... Muriel Gottrop 10:18, 30 Oct 2003 (UTC)
    • You don't need to be Super-Admin, just do your bit for making Wikipedia rule :) But, the decision is up to you. Dysprosia 10:25, 30 Oct 2003 (UTC)
  • OK lets give it a try! How does this work now? Muriel
    • A developer will sysop-fy you in a few days. Then, you can do the "delete junk" when you catch one, and do some "Main Page editing" when you feel it needs some. There are over 100 sysops, so the work isn't yours alone. There's plenty of time for other stuff. :-) --Menchi 22:24, 31 Oct 2003 (UTC)
