:::Over at Wikipedia, the adminship process (known there as RFA) is mostly question-based, where four default questions involving adminship (along the same vein as what will you do if the RFA is successful) are asked immediately upon filing an adminship request. Then, any other user can come and ask questions about anything else, such as policy, attitude, contributions, etc. The answers provided to the questions can literally make the difference between a successful RFA and a failed RFA, as I've seen RFAs turn on a dime based on one good or bad answer. Below that is a voting section, which is pretty similar to the process here upon looking at it. Most of the questions I had to answer were fairly straightforward, as were my answers, which resulted in a nearly unanimous successful RFA (~50 +, 4 -). The only opposes stemmed from totally random things, like what userboxes I had on my page and my participation in {{wp|WP:SRNC|a hotly contentious naming conventions poll}}. --[[User:TwinsMetsFan|'''<font color="#CC0018">T</font><font color="#0000C0">M</font>F''']] <sup>[[User talk:TwinsMetsFan|Let's Go Mets]] - [[Special:Contributions/TwinsMetsFan|Stats]]</sup> 02:00, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
