RfP scheduled to end after 9 June 2024 06:47 (UTC)

I was one of the original Wikidata admins under the username Sven Manguard, but my adminship lapsed in 2015 from inactivity. I'm now primarily active on Commons, but occasionally the work I do there creates the need for uncontroversial deletions here. For example, the CfDs at the bottom of Commons:Commons:Village_pump#Category:Steamboat_Willie are leading to a huge number of items like Q125913491 - items created solely for a Commons category that no longer exists - and it would just be easier for everyone if I cleaned those up myself. As such, I'm throwing my hat in the ring for adminship here again. --The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 06:47, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1.   Support - welcome back! This is a bit of a random and out-of-nowhere comment, but I actually really regret opposing your RfOS a decade ago. I felt like that kind of pushed you away from the project, though maybe that wasn't directly connected. So, happy to support now, hopefully you're doing well, and apologies for my past vote. As for current reasons to support: previous experience, use for the tools, general competence. Not the most active presently, but I don't see any harm in giving them the access. -- Ajraddatz (talk) 14:37, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  2.   Support - Agree with the above, usage of the tools will benefit both Wikidata and Commons. Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 18:24, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  3.   Support – more helping hands are always welcome – even better if they are already experienced! –FlyingAce✈hello 19:19, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  4.   Support - Rtnf (talk) 06:00, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
