===Nomination===
{{user|Darth Stabro}}&nbsp;– Darth Stabro has been on the project for over 15 years but his current active period extends over the last two. I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with DS since the beginning of his recent active period and, most recently, meeting him in person. Since his return to active participation, he has rapidly acquired an adeptness for the content and technical sides of the project. This includes the creation of over three dozen successful articles in the last year (including a handful of GAs), positive application of AutoWikiBrowser, and participation in all levels of the DYK process. Other editors and I have repeatedly discussed nominating him for adminship, and he has graciously accepted this nomination for election.

Darth Stabro has a good record of positive interaction with fellow editors. His recent collaboration on high-stress articles like [[Pope Leo XIV]] and [[2025 conclave]] are a mark in his favor. He has also become familiar with AIV and RPP through filings. While he was briefly blocked 15 years ago, I think that this event is probably more informative for him about how disruption manifests on the project rather than reflecting any current character flaw.

If elected, I have no doubt this editor would productively wield the mop for the project with anti-vandalism and tool work (particularly in the DYK space). ~ [[User:Pbritti|Pbritti]] ([[User talk:Pbritti|talk]]) 14:57, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
