Since everybody is nominating new sysops, I'd like to nominate James Duffy (Jtdirl), who is one of the most dedicated Wikipedians around. He has made tremendous contributions to dozens of articles, and I'm sure he would use these privileges responsibly.
He also likes attacking people, takes things personally, and doesn't handle disagreement gracefully.

1. The Cunctator turned up at the end, ignored all that had been said and all that has been agreed and demands his is best. 2. I will ignore the arrogant and illinformed misrepresentation of political theory and science. As someone knowledgeable in the area you know the facts. The Cunctator patently obviously doesn't. --Jtdirl

Re The Cunctator: on a talk page tonight he let slip his real reason for his behaviour. It isn't this page at all. He refuses to accept the manner in which political scientists analyse questions. With monumental arrogance, he believes that his way of throw everything into one article, no matter how many problems he causes, is superior to the way used by academics, political scientists, researchers, historians and people who do this sort of analysis for a living. His edits here are simply part of pushing an agenda. The fact that this page is organised in the standard manner of international research bugs him, because our infallible all knowing Cunctator knows that everyone else's way is wrong, the way by which one rights up research is all wrong, because he knows best. The fact that he has a poor grasp of the facts and a monumental ignorance of how academic research is done don't bug him because he knows best and the entire academic world is going to have to do things his 'superior' way.
