- Personal info: I am most active at English Wikisource (sysop and checkuser), English Wikipedia (sysop), Commons (sysop), with bits at other sites, plus sit in a number of IRC channels (nick sDrewth). At Wikisource, I'm active in the community generating new transcriptions, and in the community aspects of delivering projects and looking after newbies. I run the bot User:SDrewthbot, using AWB, at Wikisource to do menial tasks, and as time and tasks permit, I will seek approvals elsewhere. Activities in development include interests in Extension:Proofread Page and AWB; plus suggesting little improvements to Mediawiki, and some of the installed extensions. Plenty of web volunteer years and quite a variety of administrator-type roles, have me good at asking difficult questions and being polite about it. A progressive web-denizen who is handy with a mop and bucket. I am here as I was encouraged to offer my services to assist, gently, and hopefully unassumedly.

- Informationen zur Person: Ich bin hauptsächlich auf der englischen Wikisource (Sysop und CheckUser) unterwegs, englischen Wikipedia (Sysop), Commons (Sysop), ein bisschen auf anderen Seiten plus sitze ich in einigen IRC-Channeln (Nick sDrewth). Auf Wikisource arbeite ich vor allem daran, neue Transkriptionen zu liefern, und im Gemeinschaftsgedanken den Projekten beizutragen, suche ich nach Neulingen. Ich betreibe den User:SDrewthbot, benutze den AWB, auf Wikisource macht er einfache Aufgaben, und so wie es die Zeit und die Aufgaben erlauben, möchte ich ihn auch woanders einsetzen. Interessiert bin ich in Aktivitäten wie die Entwicklung der Extension:Geprüften Versionen und dem AWB; ebenso wie cih einige kleinere Verbesserungsvorschläge für MediaWiki machen, aber auch zu den bereits installierten Erweiterungen. Viele Webentwicklerjahre und eine Menge von Administrator-typischen Rollen haben mich unterstützt, schwierige Fragen zu stellen und mit diesen gerecht umzugehen. Ein fortschrittlicher Web-Bewohner und geschickt mit Mop und Eimer.(im Englischen: „A progressive web-denizen who is handy with a mop and bucket.“) Ich bin hier, weil ich engagiert meine Kräfte anbieten möchte, um zu helfen - freundlich, unterstütztend und hoffentlich erfolgreich.

- Πληροφορίες: Είμαι πιο ενεργός στην Αγγλική Βικιθήκη (διαχειριστής και checkuser), στην Αγγλική Βικιπαίδεια (διαχειριστής), στα Commons (διαχειριστής), με κάποια δικαιώματα και σε άλλα wiki, ενώ επιπλέον βρίσκομαι σε κάποια κανάλια IRC (ψευδώνυμο sDrewth). Στην Βικιθήκη είμαι ενεργός στην κοινότητα δημιουργώντας νέες μεταγραφές, εκπληρώνοντας project και περιποιούμενος τους καινούριους χρήστες. Τρέχω το bot User:SDrewthbot χρησιμοποιώντας το AWB, στην Βικιθήκη για να κάνω τετριμμένες εργασίες, και καθώς ο χρόνος και οι δουλειές το επιτρέπουν θα κάνω αιτήσεις για έγκριση και αλλού. Οι δραστηριότητές μου στην ανάπτυξη περιλαμβάνουν ενδιαφέρον στο Extension:Proofread Page και το AWB και επιπλέον προτάσεις για μικρές βελτιώσεις στο Mediawiki, και μερικές από τις εγκατεστημένες προεκτάσεις. Αρκετά χρόνια εθελοντισμού στο web και μια ποικιλία ρόλων διαχειριστή με έχουν κάνει καλό στο να ρωτάω δύσκολες ερωτήσεις και να είμαι ευγενικός σε αυτό. Είμαι προοδευτικός ιθαγενής του διαδικτύου ο οποίος είναι επιδέξιος με την σφουγγαρίστρα και τον κουβά. Είμαι εδώ καθώς ενθαρρύνθηκα να προσφέρω τις υπηρεσίες, να βοηθήσω, ευγενικά και ελπίζω με σεμνό τρόπο.

- Información personal: Soy muy activo en Wikisource en inglés (sysop y checkuser), Wikipedia en inglés (sysop), Commons (sysop), y un poco en otros sitios, y también en varios canales de IRC (nick sDrewth). En Wikisource, soy activo en la comunidad generando nuevas transcripciones, y en aspectos de la comunidad desarrollando proyectos y asistir a los novatos. Corro el bot User:SDrewthbot, usando AWB en Wikisource haciendo tareas subalternas, cuando lo permita la tarea y el tiempo, yo daré las aprobaciones donde sea. Entre las actividades que desarrollo incluyen tareas en el Extension:Proofread Page y AWB; también sugerir pequeñas mejoras a MediaWiki, y algunas de las extensiones instaladas. La plenitud dcomo voluntario web por varios años y haber asumido una variedad de roles como administrador, me hacen bueno para responder preguntas difíciles y ser cortés. Soy un ciudadano-web que está listo con un trapeador y un cubo. Estoy aquí porque dispongo a ofrecer mis servicios para asistir gentilmente, y de esperar sin asumir.

- Henkilökohtaiset tiedot: Olen aktiivisin englanninkielisessä Wikiaineistossa (ylläpitäjä ja osoitepaljastaja), englanninkielisessä Wikipediassa (ylläpitäjä), Commonsissa ja hitusen joillakin muilla sivustoilla. Lisäksi vietän aikaani useilla IRC-kanavilla (nimimerkki sDrewth). Wikiaineistossa touhuan ahkerasti yhteisössä, joka luo uusia transkriptioita, ja olen mukana sellaisissa yhteisötoiminnan piirteissä kuin projektien jakelu ja tulokkaista huolehtiminen. Ohjaan Wikiaineistossa AWB:tä käyttävää bottia SDrewthbot, jolla teen hanttihommia, ja ajan ja muiden tehtävien salliessa etsin sille hyväksyntää muuallakin. Kehitykseen liittyvään toimintaani sisältyy kiinnostus Proofread Page -laajennokseen ja AWB:hen. Tämän lisäksi ehdotan pieniä parannuksia Mediawikiin sekä joihinkin asennettuihin laajennoksiin. Runsas määrä verkossa vietettyjä vapaaehtoistyövuosia ja melkoinen joukko erilaisia ylläpitäjämäisiä rooleja ovat tehneet minusta hyvän esittämään vaikeita kysymyksiä kohteliaalla tavalla. Olen edistyksellinen webin asukas, joka on kätevä luudan ja sangon kanssa. Olen täällä, koska minua rohkaistiin tarjoamaan palveluksiani avustustyössä, hellävaraisesti ja toivon mukaan vaatimattomasti.

- I think he's very qualified. It's nice to know another language but I don't see it as a make-or-break deal when it comes to stewardship. We almost always end up using English or using an online translator, so I think a more important skill is being able to figure out what someone is asking if they can't communicate it well in English. Conversely, being able to construct a reply that can be easily translated without losing meaning is also important. I think Billinghurst can do both. --Shanel 01:26, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

- While I can completely understand the language concerns I tend to agree with Shanel. I have to admit when I first saw Billinghurst submit his nomination I knew him as a good user but did not think he would make a good Steward mostly because of a lack of xwiki activity as others such as NW have mentioned below. Since then I have gotten to know him better seeing how he acts on wiki and IRC, looking into his past (yea I do that ;) ) and talking to him more and more. I have come to the conclusion that he has in incredible clue that is hugely important for this job and that he would not only be able to do to the Steward job but could be a huge and valuable asset to the Steward team as a whole even when he was busy with other projects.

- What I have seen of Billinghurst (mostly at Wikisource) is great. He is helpful and knowledgeable with a great noob-side manner, and he regularly appears in IRC and will always help with a problem quickly. I don't see the language thing (he is not totally monolingual anyway) as an issue because he has much experience with a semi-multinational project (Commons), a relatively small wiki (Wikisource) and a huge one (enwiki), and not every Steward needs to be able to talk to every user. Between Google translate and multilingual colleagues in IRC and on-site, he will be able to deal with anything any non-native speaker of a foreign language could. Inductiveload 05:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- Agree with Jamesofur. Laaknor 08:10, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- My triple plus. Billinghurst knows how small wikis and their commuities work: he can be a good helper in a distance, and if necessary a good friend and adviser from another wiki community. IMO this kind of understanding is crucial for stewards, more than linguistic ability. --Aphaia 08:48, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

- I'm not withdrawing my comment - this is a vote and I can express my opinion. Here is your evidence: "I am most active at English Wikisource (sysop and checkuser), English Wikipedia (sysop), Commons (sysop)" - that's 3 sysop powers which is already too many. It shows that you're part of the system. We don't need more 'yes' men but people who are willing to do as they please and don't have a cabinet full of 'powers'. Instructing people to withdraw their statements is also very bad for someone who's vying for stewardship.--Xania 21:58, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that "people who are willing to do as they please" is the best job description for Steward, which is a highly collaborative role, and one that is pretty tightly bound (the very first policy in the steward handbook is don't decide) to follow consensus, rather than blaze trails. Trail blazing is appropriate for other roles, I think, but not so much for Steward. The stewards as a whole are highly collaborative. ++Lar: t/c 15:19, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

- I'm suspicious of your attitude, asking a community member to retract a vote. --Specious 21:22, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
- Umm, I absolutely didn't. The text above and here clearer indicates that their vote is their vote and not the issue. I asked them to remove or substantiate their commentary about me and my motives. The evidence is around of my work ethic and my method of working. We can rely on evidence or comments on one's character without providing a foundation. billinghurst sDrewth 22:04, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

- No other language and no small wiki experience. Good endorsements, but reply to Xania was inappropriate. I'm saying that as someone who disagrees with Xania's viewpoint. But it was clearly an opinion; you just can't demand from someone to remove their opinion like that. Even if you think the request was justified, you should be able to ask nicely - at least in your native language. SebastianHelm 21:51, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

- While I've enormous respect for Shanel, the languages aspect does give me pause. Doubtless this process is stressful for candidates, but somewhat agree with SebastianHelm here, too. Whitehorse1 23:59, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

- Sorry, I think Stewards need to speak at least an other language in order to broaden the contact options for small wikis. Good luck nevertheless! -- lucasbfr talk 16:01, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

- no reasons to vote against, but I'd prefer at least bi(tri)lingual stewards. We need also good workers and sysops, not only stewards ;)--DoppioM (it:) 10:53, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

- Sorry mate, but between global sysops, monolingual and low participation in smaller wikis, I can't support. Sadly, I think you would be a far better steward than some of the other candidates who are also effectively monolingual. John Vandenberg 02:31, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
