Support - Considering how much time and energy Oscuritaforze has put into positively changing and managing the community as an administrator, I would like to nominate him to receive bureaucratic rights here. Seeing how The Pathogen, our only other bureaucrat that is moderately active here, seems to be on the decline, activity-wise, I think that this would be a welcome move for the community to make. In the past, I've witnessed many situations where Forze's superior diplomatic skills have helped to solve many potentially volatile issues. Additionally, Forze is very experienced and familiarized with both how Wikia works and the community and culture of this wiki. That said, I support Forze in this nomination and I wish him the best of luck in it.
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻Swaggins ~ (The Terrarian Bugle) ~ (Contact me)┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ) ~ 05:08, December 20, 2014 (UTC)- Support - Forze has mounted the role of bureaucrat for a long time now, and he can't work alone - nor can Path. I fully support this, as he's a bureaucrat in all but name. 17:20, December 20, 2014 (UTC)
Support - Oscuritaforze is very friendly and helpful and selfless. He's a great admin and will make a great bureaucrat. Exitwound 45 (talk) 18:51, December 20, 2014 (UTC)- Support - I put forward my full support towards awarding Oscuritaforze Bureaucrat rights. Since the early days, he's been an enthusiastic, dedicated, well-mannered member of the community, who is always working towards furthering and bettering the wiki as a whole. My own activity has been nothing short of appalling lately and I am aware of this, however until I can definitely correct this, I do not think that leaving the wiki without at least one more active Bureaucrat would be an appropriate decision to make, let alone the fact that I have been the singular (active/semi-active) bureaucrat here for quite some time. I definitely wish him the best, and if any oppositions or neutral statements are made, I will happily listen to any and all aspects of them personally (though I'm sure TerrariamcSwaggins would be happy to assist me there ^_^). iPathos | Talk Page | Tue 23 December 2014, 07:50
- Support - I don't have any bad things to say about Forze, and he has all the qualities a crat should have. 02:18, December 24, 2014 (UTC)
- Support - Forze is one of my huge - pardon me - idols as a person and administrator. Like Gray said, he is a bureaucrat for this wiki, named or otherwise. He fully deserves the rights. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SilverHexxitFights (talk • contribs). Please sign talk page posts with
~~~~(4 tildes). - Support - Most of the stuff I would say has already been said. Nevertheless, Forze has always been a sensible person, and his advices and ways of handling things are befitting as an admin, and promoting him to Bureaucrat can only be beneficial. Freenight (talk) 04:09, December 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Support -If there's anyone at all to take these rights, it's Forze. As long as I know him he has always been dedicated to the wiki, has been a great Admin as it is and has always polite. to keep it short,there's nothing bad to say about Forze and especially not against him getting these rights. Slayer (talk) 23:15, December 28, 2014 (UTC)
- Support - I don't know Forze very well, but the time I've seen him in chat, he was very nice and helpful. I think he deserves these rights. Arthurtilly (talk) 01:29, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

Nominations from February 2013[]
The Pathogen[]
Closing statement: Unfortunately no one else seems to have been interested in voting for over a week since this nomination was opened and announced in the community messages. Since no one appears to be against it, I will go ahead and close the nomination and grant the rights. Congrats!

- Support - I'm done with the wiki. I'd like to pass my bureaucrat rights to Pathogen here. I don't have to say much - you all know what a good guy he is. Good luck. User:Dzylon/SigReal
- Support - Pathogen has put in a lot of work on this wiki and is one of if not the most long standing editor(s), and has also done a great job as an admin in my opinion. Mathmagician ƒ(♫) 01:25 UTC, Tuesday, 5 February 2013

- Support - I'd like to nominate Dzylon for receiving bureaucrat rights. According to our Terraria Wiki:Admin and Bureaucrat Policy, a bureaucrat really is simply an administrator. However, bureaucrats have the additional technical capability to grant and revoke admin rights and a role to help out other administrators when necessary. Having done quite well as an admin for months now, as well successfully operating Dzylon's Bot -- an automated process used for maintenance -- I can say that I would trust Dzylon with these additional rights, and would be glad to see him receive them. — Mathmagician talk ♥ blog 03:34, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Support - I would definitely support Dzylon becoming a bureaucrat. I find Dzylon a very trustworthy individual, as well as being helpful to people around the wiki. I am sure that he would not take becoming one of the "highest ranking-officers" on this wiki lightly and be responsible in helping this wiki to grow. In conclusion, I would be happy for him if he would receive these rights, and I hope that he does receive them :) Exshooter101 03:52, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Support - I see no reason to oppose. Voting 'Yes'. momi-inu 10:48, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Support - I 100% support this nomination. Dzylon has tons of experiance with wikis. He has even been helping me start my new wiki I founded. He has shown great knowledge of templates and in general is a great contributor! Great job! Dak47922 Talk 16:15, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Support - I've been inactive on the wiki for some time, so I haven't been here much to see Dzylon in action. But I've done some research on him to be able to form opinion and make a statement in the nomination.
Dzylon is a trusted member of the community, and has a well earned reputation through his time as admin on this wiki. He's also a great contributor to the wiki, and is very active. He shows good understanding of how things work around here, and seems to be communicating well with others, as well as offering his help when needed. He's also well-mannered, and seems to always take calm and proper actions. I think he will do an excellent job as bureaucrat of this wiki. Leet-PeteTalk10:37, 15 May 2012 - Support - You think I would say no? I approve 1000% Koggeh
- Support - Dzylon's been doing quite an amazing job at helping run the wiki. He's been quite the admin, especially with his bot running about, he's by far nominated by me. I approve over 9000%. XD Hellexarus 13:42, May 17, 2012 (UTC) Also, I hope I did the support template right. o.o
- Support - I definitely support Dzylon's nomination for a number of reasons. (Though for once I'll try and keep it concise.) He is a very level-headed individual, always calm and making well thought-out decisions. He's highly experienced with Wikitext, and is building up quite the reputation with CSS as well, from what I see. His Bot is impressive as always too, chiselling away behind the scenes to help keep things nice and tidy. Dzylon is also a very well-known member of the community here, and I think it'd be a good addition to the identity of the Wiki to have him as our second major b-crat. Path Out. :) iPathos | Talk Page | Sun, 13 May 2012 16:46:15

- Support - Most, if not all of you can speak for Mathmagician's dedication and mediation skills. Even during the recent nomination conflict, Mathmagician maintained an objective stance and attempted to bring about an agreement for all involved. Also to be spoken of are his skills in wiki markup, CSS, and HTML; not to mention his vast improvements to the wiki's abuse filter. Even when his adminship was revoked, he remained calm and cooperative. I can think of no better man for this position.
User:Dzylon/SigReal - Support - I must say I support the idea of Math as Bureaucrat. No one else fills the bill like Math. Koggeh
- Support - I also agree. Being the primary admin now math will be able to guide the new admins. When ever I had a question math was able to answer promptly. In general I cant see any reason why Math should not become a bureaucrat. Dak47922 talk contrib count 15:36, February 28, 2012 (UTC)
- Support - I fully agree!! Math helps everyone for everyhting, contributes loads to the wiki and is definetely great at ending conflicts. I add my support to Dyzlon's, Path's and Koggeh's!Furiion52 00:14, February 29, 2012 (UTC)Furiion52
- Support - I fully support Dzylon's nomination here. Math's dedication goes without saying, and he's also one of the most knowledgeable editors here on the wiki, both in terms of formatting and knowledge of Terraria in general. He always keeps his composure, and as such would be a perfect choice for the Terraria Wiki's next bureaucrat. iPathos | Talk Page | Tue, 28 Feb 2012 17:14:51

- Neutral - While I do feel that Mathmagician has proven herself (you are a she, right?) a fine and responsible admin, I'm not yet confident in voting for her just yet (no offense Math). I believe that we'll need several bureaucrats in power in order to ensure that none of them abuse it for their own gain. Basically, I'm in favlr of implementing a checks-and-balances kind of failsafe system, where bureaucrats would be able to keep eachother from abusing their powers. If there were other bureaucrats being nominated, ones that I feel are worthy of being them, then I'd probably want to cast my vote for you. Shadow Wolf TJC 08:18, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

- Re to User:Dzylon
Thank you for the nomination. I think Dzylon overstates my skills a bit here (for example, I do not really know JS). I appreciate the thoughts here though ^^. My feeling is that the wiki really needs admins at present, and so I would like to focus on the admin nominations, as I see them as more important. But if others wish to speak about my bureaucrat nomination, I will certainly participate in the discussion.
Mathmagician ( talk ♥ blog ) 06:58, February 28, 2012 (UTC)
- I thought you told me in chat that you knew JS. I now recall that you said ordinary Java. However, if you are fluent in Java, a simpler language like JavaScript should come as no difficulty to you. The rest is, as far as I know, right on target :). By the way, if you'd rather focus on admin nominations at this time, that's fine with me. User:Dzylon/SigReal
- Re to User:Shadow Wolf TJC
Shadow Wolf: Regarding the neutral vote above, I understand your position here and agree with the concept of "checks and balances." This is a goal for the long run which will take some time to achieve. In the short term, rest assured that we do have something regarding checks and balances so long as staff are involved in our wiki, which will be for some time I imagine. P.S. As for the question regarding gender, nope, I'm not a girl, only my avatar is.
