Staecker (talk · contribs) - I first met Staecker after a night of working on C:CSD. I didn't think much of it at the time, but I noticed there were an extremely high ratio of CSD I1 images. The next day, Staecker contacted me and let me know that he was working on a bot to automatically identify and tag CSD I1 candidates. He asked me why I occasionally would delete the other duplicated instead of the one that Staeckerbot tagged. I explained it was because sometimes the licensing information wasn't identical or the uploader provided more details about the image on the untagged image. Staecker ended up adding some code to copy the licensing information to make sure both images had the same information. I feel that giving Staecker the tools would be greatly beneficial to him by allowing him to review why admins sometimes deleted the image that wasn't tagged which would allow him to further refine his bot.
Staecker has also contributed quite a bit to other image related tasks. He has nominated images for being ((PUIdisputed)) and has helped users clear up image copyright problems. I am confident in his knowledge of policy, especially image/CSD related. Reading through Staecker's contributions, I have found that he has kept his cool and makes good use of talk pages and edit summaries to explain any possible contentious edits.
