TheSt0ryTeller - Graduated into the Istruttorium

Aaand to seal this thing up: I second what Sima said, and I add one thing: I fully expect you to work on every "shortcoming", "flaw", or "attitude", whatever it's called, that they mentioned -- just because you're staff doesn't mean you know everything, but just like Elch, it means everything you can now learn can be learned on the field. Life is a constant struggle, and we always can learn more and improve ourselves, so keep growing and improving on your wiki carrer like you did as an apprentice and never settle for less, kid. And remember that if you don't I'll have your ass on my wall with a nice plaque below it XD The council has voted, the staff has also made their oppinion clear -- welcome to the Istruttorium. -- D. Cello 13:31, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Teller is worthy of a place in staff. He is sociable and polite. Though sometimes in the past he has not used a very formal manner of writing or has not made a very good job of something, he has improved tremendously and is a great editor now. He has done plenty of revamps, helped out other users and done several favours for them. A while back I myself was sceptical if he should be in staff, but now I'm certain. He's a capable editor, a good community man and he is a pleasure to work with.

Yay

Yay. Good luck, Teller. Romeh ^{Speak now} 02:08, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

I have to say Yay, as well. Despite all the times that Teller's proven his Failside, he's done a good job as an Apprentice. Cake. -- Rayne ^Message 03:03, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Have to agree with Rayne on this. --Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 05:00, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Tricky vote. Well I don't always like your behaviour, you overuse smileys to near Uditore levels of ridiculousness, and you can't seem to shake off the "noob" aura you somehow created for yourself. Granted you've gotten better since the days of "Fail Chef", but it could be improved on. I've also noticed that you tend to be a bit of... well trying to avoid an insult, you're a nice enough guy to those of a higher rank than you are, though occasionally appear to be deliberately harsh to those beneath you. On to your editing, well it’s okay. You seem to understand the Policies and MoS well enough, yet a few mistakes can usually be found on your major work, more than what would be expected of a Staff member. But of course, it’s not all bad; otherwise I wouldn’t be voting Yay. What you lack in editing, I’m sure you will learn as a Staff member. Your help blogs are incredibly useful, and I would’ve loved to see them here when I was beginner, newbies now days should have no excuse for dodgy editing because of those help blogs which are easy to understand, whilst still being detailed enough to not miss anything. Your image work, specifically with “HQI”, was not asked from you, nor were you rewarded for it, however you still did it, and many of the Staff members, Apprentices, and regular users now have nice avatars to display. Too... summarise, you’re a fair editor, a decent community person, clearly dedicated to this Wiki, and your work is appreciated by everyone. I’m sure you will be a great asset to the Istruttorium.
I set the standard gentlemen, meet it if you dare. =P

Standards are for squares. Like pants. --Jack ^Walls_inFamous 08:54, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Yay. You have ~~much~~ a little to learn, Padawan. But that will come in time... I have much praise for that which you have already mastered, and I think you know that, so I won't bother writing it down here. For now, my opinion is that you should join our ranks, and learn anything still to learn there, just as I did, (And as I am still doing). Good luck, Teller. See you on the flipside. Elchzard ^{(Talking is fun)} 09:07, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

I have to agree with what Blaidd had said before. I am not going to write such an extensive paragraph as he did (I'm rebellious like that), but my opinion quite comes down to the same thing. Up until a couple of months ago, I would not have agreed on you entering the Istruttorium, but you grew from... I feel like saying "from a caterpillar into a butterfly" but I don't think that sounds quite right. Anyways, you've quite mastered our manual of style, except some secondary details, but that is easily oversee able and those can be easily learned while being staff. You aren't particularly friendly against the entire community at times, though neither am I, so I don't see that as much of a problem. Though I did find it quite funny how you had been overly friendly to the community these last few days, when the Istruttorium vote was drawing near. But I suppose that is just human behaviour, and not really worth paying much attention to. Despite these minor flaws, I am sure you will be very useful to the Istruttorium, and I'd like to see you become a member of it. Oh, seems like my paragraph is nearly as long as Blaidd's now... -- Master Sima Yi 10:16, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Subject 12 - Graduated into the Istruttorium

And after a lenghty vote (lenghty because of the ammount of paragraphs written, of course), yay it is ^^ Congrats, and welcome to the brotherhood, Twelve. -- D. Cello 13:33, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

It is time, it is… THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! Well as you are all aware, I can write an essay on things like this very easily… and I intend too. 12 was the first Apprentice to join the Initiative, and to this day still has the highest quality interview, giving detailed answers for every question. It lasted 4 – 5 hours in-between the massive responses and us disconnecting frequently, but it was eventually finished. Passing that interview with such ease set the standard for his future as an Apprentice, clearly making a good start to the Apprentice Program, he only continued to flourish. He quickly got involved with revamping large articles, no messing around with small tasks. This came as a surprise to me, I had not expected such good work so suddenly. As time progressed, they got bigger and bigger faster than I anticipated, and with each passing task, the quality increased, I soon realised that there was going to be little for me to correct with each assignment. He is a very fast learner, faster than me, and his work here seemed to come instinctively to him, knowing exactly what to do with few too no questions or guidance from me. By around Rank 6, my work was practically done and all that remained for me was to review his assignments, and update the Progress Log and Pigeon Coop accordingly. His revamps are of the highest calibre, and his writing skills are marvellous and among the best we have here. Remaining dedicated to the Wiki always, whether he was working on a project of his own, or an assignment, his activity was exceptional, and helped to promote several articles to GA and FA status. As some of you may be aware, he has also earned the position as Chief Editor of the WikiProject Memories: Absolute Symbiosis, a monumental feat at the mere Rank of 7, after doing small revamps on every single page listed in the Project. His understanding of the Policies and MoS is also decent, he knows the rules well, and follows them. His knowledge of the Assassin’s Creed universe is also fair, as he has played all of the main instalments, read the ACB novel, played part of Bloodlines and Project Legacy, and watched Lineage and Ascendance. To summarise this point, his editing skills are brilliant, and well above what is expected of a Staff member. On to his community skills and socialness. No joke, no lie, no doubt; he is one of the nicest people here. He never starts arguments or insults other people, and is always polite to everyone; rank has no relevance. As you are all aware, 100% friendly users are not something we have an abundance of here, there’s no denying that. Now although most people who do tend to be a bit on the “harsh” or “mean” side usually only give it to people who deserve it, no one can argue that a user who can keep calm and kind at all times would not be a great asset to this Wiki. Whether on the IRC or Wiki, if a user requests his assistance, it is given. To conclude, he’s been a member here since late 2010, and has accumulated over 1 900 contributions. He’s completed the Apprenticeship, and waited very patiently for this day. It’s been a pleasure to mentor and work with him, and the small fact that he was capable of tolerating my ego, argumentative, and sometimes cruel and cold nature is a clear indicator that he is ready. It is time he got rewarded for his efforts.
Small side note… all “TL;DR” comments will be counted as an automatic Yay vote. ;)
-- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 12:18, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

There are so many reasons as to why I'm voting "Yay" for 12, when I came here, he treated me with kindness, didn't judge and was laid back (in an internet sort of way). I'm on almost, every single day and every single hour I can be on and during those periods, I've seen 12 be kind and generous to his peers, anons and higher-uppers. Though, there are some things he can improve upon, such as some wording difficulties BUT that's about it, it troubled me to think of one but I found one at least. I'm not saying he's perfect, nobody is, we all have flaws. Now, onto his work. They were done well, one flaw I had found among them was image placement, not a big deal, some articles you had revamped had pictures abit "out of place" but I cannot really judge your work since, well, I had some flaws in mine (don't nit-pick). Overall, it was well done, some of your work could've used some quotes but that's very, very, very minor. He's helped me many times when I needed it, he was with me all the way through my Apprenticeship and I'm sure he was with alot of the others. He's the Chief Editor of WikiProject: Memories and has revamped alot of articles to a GA Standard and even one to an FA Standard. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be in the position I am at the moment, I can't begin to make it up to him, this is not a Thank you, this not a gift, this is the truth. If 12 doesn't make it then surely I don't deserve a spot on this Staff, 12 was a great asset to the Apprentice Initiative and I'm absolutely positive he will live up to expectations and make a great Staff member, you must not deny him this opportunity. After all, he put up with Blaidd, he earned it. Good luck 12, you'll be a great asset to the Wiki Staff. It's a Yay from this St0ryTeller, Good luck my broseph... --Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 12:26, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

...I don't have nearly as much to say as the two of you up there, but here's my part. Since very early on, I've seen 12 as an exceptional apprentice, actively and consistently contributing to the articles, and visiting frequently. I've also noticed him catch and appropriately revert poor or vandalizing edits on several occassions. Good editor, good contributor; the ranks could really use him. =GuardDog 12:39, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

I suppose I have to keep votes in uniform with the other nominations... "As nominator." -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 12:43, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

This really is a no-brainer for me. From the moment I joined, 12 has been my bro – A great source of conversation, advice and constructive criticism. He was always a benchmark for me as an Apprentice, and still remains so, even if I am of a technically higher rank than this godsend of a man, at the moment. This was a long time coming, and 12 deserves this position way more than I do. His editing is wonderful, his social attitude is insanely good, and his general awesomeness really just clinches it for me. If I had to choose my favourite Apprentice ever, 12 would be the prime candidate, (No offense to the rest of you, you're all awesome). I could go on for hours, but I will leave it here, I think. Good luck to you Twelve – To quote something that has happened a lot on the IRC over the 6 or so months I've been here, Elchzard brohugs Subject 12. Hope to see you right here beside me very soon indeed. :) Elchzard ^{(Talking is fun)} 22:07, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

--Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 01:06, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

Although I have had a more than substantial absence, one thing I am certain of is 12's dedication to the wiki. Before I left, 12 was early to impress me with excellent quality edits, his patient, humble and civil attitude towards both staff and general users alike as well as a library of other assets. Eager to do his bit and then some. I see that nothing has changed since I've been gone, all he's done is continue to exceed expectations and grow into a user more than worthy of this nomination. So it's a definite YAY from me. Great editor, great guy! *Bows head* You are a great asset to this wonderful little community of ours 12. (Also send me the deets of your avatar preferance, so I can prep the awesome XD) -- ☘ Sikksta ☘ ➜ ☎^Talk☎ 01:39, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

Just like Jasca up above, nothing really for me to say that everyone else hasn't already. Well done, 12, you've earned it. -- Rayne ^Message 01:42, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

Guess this what happens when we vote after most of the Staff are done, Rayne. --Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 03:07, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not one for speeches so, yes. Good luck out there. --Jack ^Walls_inFamous 09:20, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

I don't feel like talking, but yeah, you earned it. -- Master Sima Yi 13:31, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

Amnestyyy - Graduated into the Istruttorium

Although I think Blaidd overestimates the importance others give to his long votes (quoting Vatsa, "I'm just happy there aren't any long speeches here.."), his vote and others are an yay. So welcome to the brotherhood, sister. -- D. Cello 15:28, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

We all know Nesty. Dedicated editor, does lots of work, always asking for more. Very knowledgeable on the series and a friendly person on the IRC. Finished her apprenticeship now and thus is getting nominated into the Istruttorium. I support her, and I would've written more here if I did not have such a headache. -- Master Sima Yi 15:38, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

As nominator. -- Master Sima Yi 15:41, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Nesty has constantly shown that she is worthy. A hard worker, Nesty always is happy to answer questions for new users and is definatley a community friendly person. I really wish her all the best. Subject 12 ^{Talk to me} 15:52, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

I approve, seems to be doing very good quality work around here. =GuardDog 16:22, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

No explanation necessary. --Jack ^Walls_Supermen 19:00, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yay. Nesty is one of the most hard working editors here. Assassin-Rome ^{(Talk if you will)} 19:32, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

I know you were all expecting a nice long essay from me detailing all of Amy's strong and weak points but... I just can't do that right now. Maybe once I have my things sorted I'll write a... a... I'm sure there's a word for this. Like when you present something that is no longer necessary but people are curious to what it said so you present it anyway. $30 to whoever brings me answers. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 01:19, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

I could be writing a long speech about the hardwork she has put in, about what she's done for Staff, her community friendly personality ect.. But I'm too lazy to go into too much detail so I'll just sum it up. She's been a very valuable editor to the ACWiki and has improved the quality of several articles that we have seen, she hasn't been unfair on reasoning for muting, kicking or, in some cases, banning a user. I believe she deserves the opportunity. Oh, Blaidd, I think you meant "speech" or something... I want my 30 bucks now. XD Oh, and it will be awesome to see how Steen manages too make Ezio so lady-like. Steen, if you see this, when making this, if you still have Ezio's original face with the "clevage".. show us. Just for lolz XD Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 01:35, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

Nostalgia AC - Graduated into the Istruttorium

I was going to close this on the 16th, but I waited for War or Phil to vote first. But its Carnevale, and I just spent 4 days on my gf's house XD sorry for the delay. And for fuck's sake, people, use four "=" on the "Yay", "Nay" and "Comments" section, makes it easier to edit the whole vote.

Since Nos has reached the end of his apprenticeship, I feel he's ready for your evaluations, everyone. He's very active, and always eager for work, writing out articles both well and very quickly. He specializes in location and event articles, and possesses enough AC knowledge for both. He's ready, and I support him, so your votes or comments would be much appreciated. =GuardDog 23:47, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Yay

As nominator. =GuardDog 23:47, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

In a bit of a rush, so no long memorable speech today. Plus I don't know Nos all that well so it'd be quite difficult for me to do the whole DnM thing. So... *SKIP*. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Enter... THE SCARY DOOR} 03:17, February 9, 2012 (UTC)

Well, when I came home from a long day of sleeping my classes (joking) but when I came home from a long day of school, I jumped on the Wiki and checked the RA Feed and saw the nomination. I didn't feel like voting on anything and nor did I want to. But, it's Nos, he's an awesome guy to talk to, bit persistent but it's minor. He's made minor mistakes on articles which Nesty had pointed out but guess who fixed them? THIS GUY. Overall, promoted plenty of articles to FA/GA and has come a long way since his... erm... Alt-- something days. But yeah. Worthy of Staff. Any personal disputes that people have had with Nos (shouldn't be too much) can be put aside. Great editing and I believe his spot in the Istruttorium should be granted. Well... that dragged on. Guess I'm saying this, a yay from me. --Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 05:47, February 9, 2012 (UTC)

Don't expect me to write a huge vote... Because I won't. Nos has (like most of us) a lot to learn, but he can do so while being staff. That's all. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 07:02, February 9, 2012 (UTC)

About time... Nos deserves it, nuff said. Subject 12 ^{Talk to me} 10:48, February 9, 2012 (UTC)

DarkFeather - Graduated into the Istruttorium

Long votes (thanks to Blaidd), all supporting DarkFeather. Welcome to the Order, Dark.. -- VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 04:17, May 12, 2012 (UTC)

How exciting; our first Staff nomination since the mass retirement of some of our Staff. I'm not going to do the usual long speech because I can't be bothered anymore, I bet you're all very disappointed. Instead, I shall just point out some basic pros and cons of Dark.

So the pros: Decent editor who is capable of fixing any article that requires a revamp. Great with the Wikia Witchcraft that Vatsa does. I don't know how skilled exactly because I'm the least competent here with that stuff, but I'd be confident in saying it's his specialty. He's a friendly and helpful guy ^{(Able to leap tall hard to understand questions in a single bound, faster than a speeding noob...)} we need more people like that here. Fairly active on the IRC so is readily available for important discussions. Finally, an important note that some people may overlook - Dark has been here for about a year, maybe more, and hasn't been given the best opportunity most of the other Apprentices got. Rayne went on the "temporary" absence a few weeks after taking Dark, and that absence extended into months while Dark was left going no where and doing nothing within the Apprentice Program. Once Rayne finally made his departure official, it still took a week or so to find a new Mentor for him. Plus, Rayne didn't leave any parting message for him. Those of you who were here way back then would know that the two got on very well, so to leave without a word wasn't exactly favourable. Eventually, I took Dark and we got the ball rolling again until we reached this nomination. Two words: Dedication and Commitment. I wouldn't have gone through his uncertain and unstable situation, constantly wondering: "Is it all really worth it?" But he stuck with it til the end and this is his rightfully earned reward ^{(Shut up, Sima)}.

And the cons: Not the most active of contributors on the Wiki, but who is? For those of us dealing with jobs, education, and other assorted interferences... it can get a bit busy being a valued asset to society, compared to some of you ^{(You know who you are :P)} lounging around all day, leeching of others like a parasite XD. Still makes tiny errors in most of his major edits, kinda hard to give examples cus it's all mostly irrelevant stuff, so just check my comments in his Pigeon Coop and his edit diffs for further details.

~~Right, so that's about it. There's probably things on both lists that I've forgotten, but you can add to it in your vote.~~

~~^{Oh look, an essay..}~~

~~'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Funk Man's Funky House of Funk} 06:56, May 7, 2012 (UTC)~~

Yay

As nominator. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig ^{Funk Man's Funky House of Funk} 06:56, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Dark has been a great help to the community, especially with his 1337 c0d1ng sk1llz, as evidenced by Project Aperture and Teller's side project, which he is currently building. His community skills are excellent as he is a great moderator like his former Master. Finally, I expect that having gone through the App, he has a high standard for writing and maintaining articles. I vote yes. Animusradiation talk / contribs 07:10, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Great guy, great coder, survived a particularly drawn out Apprenticeship. Definitely yes. HugCar 07:15, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

I don't see the relevance of the points listed above, seeing as an Istruttore is a moderator and a moderator only has to monitor pages and be able to utilize the rollback tool properly. But I know he can do that, and I hope he will do it an active rate. -- Master Sima Yi 07:50, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Yay! IlMualim ^{Wanna Chat?} 07:52, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Definate yes from me, Dark is a great editor and is nice on the IRC while I've been on there. I didn't quite know about much of the coding stuff that he did, but Project Aperture was a success, so I figure that he's more than qualified there. I feel it's only right that Dark is given the chance at this position after having progressed to the very end of the Apprenticeship Program. Slate Vesper 07:56, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

He likes ravens..so, YAY!--Odranoelluta^{Talk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose>} 13:27, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

I'd like to write out a long speech as to why Dark should, but for now I'll just say, "I'm with Odra on this one." Stormbeast ^{The Helpful Place} 13:35, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

--Vatsa (talk • Gentek) 13:52, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not going to go into as much detail as Blaidd did so I'll just say this, Dark is a kind guy, he's even offered to help me on another Wiki with some coding. He contains a fine vocabulary and knowledge of the series. He aided in Project Aperture which was a large success, causing a large impact on the Wiki. He's a good editor despite the minor things. He's socially accepted, loyal and easily approachable and does not ask for much in return. If I could do anything else for him, I would, but at the moment this will have to do. I'm trailing on so I better close this up. Good luck and good job, Dark. --Teller ^{Words, On my Screen :O} 14:01, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

No objections from me. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 15:58, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
