My opinion may not carry much weight, but I would suggest a more "confidence-inspiring" username. I fear only that some users might be put off by a sysop called "anonymous" anything. Having people be confident about you is an important part of being a sysop, I think.
But maybe I'm making too big a deal about this. What do the others think?

My username is anonymous56789. Even though I've only used this account for
a few weeks, I've been using wikipedia for months. I definitely wouldn't
abuse admil powers. I edit wikipedia every day and make a new entry on
average about 2 a day. I always check my sources. Before letting me be an
admin, I think you should know that I am 13 years old, and if you think my
information would be inaccurate, then don't make me an admin.
