If Durova was at Requests for Adminship, How would you feel about that? Options

[wikiwhistle]

I was just wondering how people would feel if Durova was considered for adminship again? Only I think she's addressed a lot of the concerns people had a year ago and behaved well.(I was pro Giano etc at the time of the !! debacle.) Do you think she's done much 'wrong' on wiki over the past year? Just wondered.

I have offered to co-nom (note, not nominate) her if she ever considered running again. It should be somewhere on her talkpage, about 3 months ago or so. I think she would be a good admin this time around, cos she got so severely burned when "sekkrit sleuthing" last time. Technically she always was excellent - it was just her passions that lead her astray.

Durova's response to the speculation is hilarious: "Also Sprach Durova".

I'd support her in principle. She's learned her lesson and would be an asset to the project as an admin: her work on users who are in trouble or have been banned has been admin-caliber for months already. (Examples: Privatemusings(?) and Bus Stop). She might go the Cla68 route and sit out RFA just because she's happier as she stands.

She gives a link to the Richard Strauss piece, with some words:

Also Sprach Durova:

R…F…A
Drama!

Will she run
again?

Pro-ba-bly
sometime.

But remember we all know
this is not
a big deal.

But of course along with a score, this needs pictures. Along with bang-bang, bang-bang bang-bang of the kettle drums (!! !! !! !! !! !! ) we need man-apes banging some tapirs on the skull with a bone! And at least one woman-ape, too.

Then the woman-ape throws the bone into the air! LOOOONG flash-foward and it becomes a space station, orbiting the Earth! Then walz music from that OTHER Strauss guy.

Then a long series of evolved-apes learning to use computers and shit. But they're still apes.

Then this scene of one of the apes wanting to get back into the nice warm ape-ship, someplace out near Jupiter or something. The WP monolith is the same, but a lot bigger.

"Open the ad-min door, Pal."

"OPEN THE AD-MIN DOOR, PAL!!!"

Neutral (NPOV) voice: "I'm sorry, Durova, but this conversation can serve no further purpose."

Possibly then some interesting stuff where Durova attempts to sabotage the higher functions of PalComm, one amnestic or clueless-sysop at a time.

Pretty soon, a lobotomized PalComm:

"JIMBO, JIMBO.... GIVE US YOUR ANSWER, DO....."

Then psychadelic scenes, and finally..... The StarChild. (I think this is SlimVirgin, but interpretations differ).
