Administrators

Six users were granted admin status last week: MisfitToys (nom), Cowman109 (nom), Goldom (nom), Robdurbar (nom), Mets501 (nom) and Agentsoo (nom).

Correction

Last week, it was reported that there were only three users who held the unique distinction of garnering 100 support votes in an RfA, but fail to be promoted to admin status. However, a fourth (Joturner's second nomination) also accomplished this feat. Thanks to Tariqabjotu (formerly Joturner) and NoSeptember's Admin Project for pointing this out.
