== Re. Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Vacation9 == 

 As a regular RfA commentator, I was unable to participate in the aforementioned RfA due to being busy with other things at the time. If I had gotten the opportunity, I unfortunately would have felt inclined to oppose due to the concerns expressed by , , , et al. There is a lack of experience that shows through and precludes his adminship request for the time being. 

 However, I'm not so sure I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment that he may lack the prerequisite competence for the role. Certainly he is inexperienced and will need to fine tune his approach to the deletion process before I would feel comfortable supporting him, but otherwise I consider Vacation9 to be an enthusiastic and hard-working editor with the potential to be an effective administrator someday. Then again, perhaps my interpretation of "competence" is a little skewed — I think of it as a person's mental capacity to perform a given task in a satisfactory manner. I view intelligence and capability as dynamic traits, rather than static — they can change with time depending on an individual's attitude. This view may not be as widespread as I'd like for it to be. 

 Maybe I'm just arguing semantics here, but your input would be appreciated. =)
