User:TheSt0ryTeller - Graduated into the Istruttorium
Aaand to seal this thing up: I second what Sima said, and I add one thing: I fully expect you to work on every "shortcoming", "flaw", or "attitude", whatever it's called, that they mentioned -- just because you're staff doesn't mean you know everything, but just like Elch, it means everything you can now learn can be learned on the field. Life is a constant struggle, and we always can learn more and improve ourselves, so keep growing and improving on your wiki carrer like you did as an apprentice and never settle for less, kid. And remember that if you don't I'll have your ass on my wall with a nice plaque below it XD The council has voted, the staff has also made their oppinion clear -- welcome to the Istruttorium. -- D. Cello 13:31, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

Teller is worthy of a place in staff. He is sociable and polite. Though sometimes in the past he has not used a very formal manner of writing or has not made a very good job of something, he has improved tremendously and is a great editor now. He has done plenty of revamps, helped out other users and done several favours for them. A while back I myself was sceptical if he should be in staff, but now I'm certain. He's a capable editor, a good community man and he is a pleasure to work with.

Yay
I set the standard gentlemen, meet it if you dare. =P -- 'R BlaiddDdraig  Enter...  THE SCARY DOOR  05:43, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Yay. Good luck, Teller. Romeh  Speak now 02:08, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) I have to say Yay, as well. Despite all the times that Teller's proven his Failside, he's done a good job as an Apprentice. Cake. -- Rayne  Message 03:03, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Have to agree with Rayne on this. --Vatsa ( talk • Gentek ) 05:00, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Tricky vote. Well I don't always like your behaviour, you overuse smileys to near Uditore levels of ridiculousness, and you can't seem to shake off the "noob" aura you somehow created for yourself. Granted you've gotten better since the days of "Fail Chef", but it could be improved on. I've also noticed that you tend to be a bit of... well trying to avoid an insult, you're a nice enough guy to those of a higher rank than you are, though occasionally appear to be deliberately harsh to those beneath you. On to your editing, well it’s okay. You seem to understand the Policies and MoS well enough, yet a few mistakes can usually be found on your major work, more than what would be expected of a Staff member. But of course, it’s not all bad; otherwise I wouldn’t be voting Yay. What you lack in editing, I’m sure you will learn as a Staff member. Your help blogs are incredibly useful, and I would’ve loved to see them here when I was beginner, newbies now days should have no excuse for dodgy editing because of those help blogs which are easy to understand, whilst still being detailed enough to not miss anything. Your image work, specifically with “HQI”, was not asked from you, nor were you rewarded for it, however you still did it, and many of the Staff members, Apprentices, and regular users now have nice avatars to display. Too... summarise, you’re a fair editor, a decent community person, clearly dedicated to this Wiki, and your work is appreciated by everyone. I’m sure you will be a great asset to the Istruttorium.
 * 1) Standards are for squares. Like pants. -- Jack WallsinFamous 08:54, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Yay. You have much a little to learn, Padawan. But that will come in time... I have much praise for that which you have already mastered, and I think you know that, so I won't bother writing it down here. For now, my opinion is that you should join our ranks, and learn anything still to learn there, just as I did, (And as I am still doing). Good luck, Teller. See you on the flipside. Elchzard  (Talking is fun) 09:07, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) I have to agree with what Blaidd had said before. I am not going to write such an extensive paragraph as he did (I'm rebellious like that), but my opinion quite comes down to the same thing. Up until a couple of months ago, I would not have agreed on you entering the Istruttorium, but you grew from... I feel like saying "from a caterpillar into a butterfly" but I don't think that sounds quite right. Anyways, you've quite mastered our manual of style, except some secondary details, but that is easily oversee able and those can be easily learned while being staff. You aren't particularly friendly against the entire community at times, though neither am I, so I don't see that as much of a problem. Though I did find it quite funny how you had been overly friendly to the community these last few days, when the Istruttorium vote was drawing near. But I suppose that is just human behaviour, and not really worth paying much attention to. Despite these minor flaws, I am sure you will be very useful to the Istruttorium, and I'd like to see you become a member of it. Oh, seems like my paragraph is nearly as long as Blaidd's now... -- Master Sima Yi 10:16, November 6, 2011 (UTC)

User:Subject 12 - Graduated into the Istruttorium
And after a lenghty vote (lenghty because of the ammount of paragraphs written, of course), yay it is ^^ Congrats, and welcome to the brotherhood, Twelve. -- D. Cello 13:33, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

It is time, it is… THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! Well as you are all aware, I can write an essay on things like this very easily… and I intend too. 12 was the first Apprentice to join the Initiative, and to this day still has the highest quality interview, giving detailed answers for every question. It lasted 4 – 5 hours in-between the massive responses and us disconnecting frequently, but it was eventually finished. Passing that interview with such ease set the standard for his future as an Apprentice, clearly making a good start to the Apprentice Program, he only continued to flourish. He quickly got involved with revamping large articles, no messing around with small tasks. This came as a surprise to me, I had not expected such good work so suddenly. As time progressed, they got bigger and bigger faster than I anticipated, and with each passing task, the quality increased, I soon realised that there was going to be little for me to correct with each assignment. He is a very fast learner, faster than me, and his work here seemed to come instinctively to him, knowing exactly what to do with few too no questions or guidance from me. By around Rank 6, my work was practically done and all that remained for me was to review his assignments, and update the Progress Log and Pigeon Coop accordingly. His revamps are of the highest calibre, and his writing skills are marvellous and among the best we have here. Remaining dedicated to the Wiki always, whether he was working on a project of his own, or an assignment, his activity was exceptional, and helped to promote several articles to GA and FA status. As some of you may be aware, he has also earned the position as Chief Editor of the WikiProject Memories: Absolute Symbiosis, a monumental feat at the mere Rank of 7, after doing small revamps on every single page listed in the Project. His understanding of the Policies and MoS is also decent, he knows the rules well, and follows them. His knowledge of the Assassin’s Creed universe is also fair, as he has played all of the main instalments, read the ACB novel, played part of Bloodlines and Project Legacy, and watched Lineage and Ascendance. To summarise this point, his editing skills are brilliant, and well above what is expected of a Staff member. On to his community skills and socialness. No joke, no lie, no doubt; he is one of the nicest people here. He never starts arguments or insults other people, and is always polite to everyone; rank has no relevance. As you are all aware, 100% friendly users are not something we have an abundance of here, there’s no denying that. Now although most people who do tend to be a bit on the “harsh” or “mean” side usually only give it to people who deserve it, no one can argue that a user who can keep calm and kind at all times would not be a great asset to this Wiki. Whether on the IRC or Wiki, if a user requests his assistance, it is given. To conclude, he’s been a member here since late 2010, and has accumulated over 1 900 contributions. He’s completed the Apprenticeship, and waited very patiently for this day. It’s been a pleasure to mentor and work with him, and the small fact that he was capable of tolerating my ego, argumentative, and sometimes cruel and cold nature is a clear indicator that he is ready. It is time he got rewarded for his efforts.

Small side note… all “TL;DR” comments will be counted as an automatic Yay vote. ;)

-- 'R BlaiddDdraig  Enter...  THE SCARY DOOR  12:18, November 8, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) There are so many reasons as to why I'm voting "Yay" for 12, when I came here, he treated me with kindness, didn't judge and was laid back (in an internet sort of way). I'm on almost, every single day and every single hour I can be on and during those periods, I've seen 12 be kind and generous to his peers, anons and higher-uppers. Though, there are some things he can improve upon, such as some wording difficulties BUT that's about it, it troubled me to think of one but I found one at least. I'm not saying he's perfect, nobody is, we all have flaws. Now, onto his work. They were done well, one flaw I had found among them was image placement, not a big deal, some articles you had revamped had pictures abit "out of place" but I cannot really judge your work since, well, I had some flaws in mine (don't nit-pick). Overall, it was well done, some of your work could've used some quotes but that's very, very, very minor. He's helped me many times when I needed it, he was with me all the way through my Apprenticeship and I'm sure he was with alot of the others. He's the Chief Editor of WikiProject: Memories and has revamped alot of articles to a GA Standard and even one to an FA Standard. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be in the position I am at the moment, I can't begin to make it up to him, this is not a Thank you, this not a gift, this is the truth. If 12 doesn't make it then surely I don't deserve a spot on this Staff, 12 was a great asset to the Apprentice Initiative and I'm absolutely positive he will live up to expectations and make a great Staff member, you must not deny him this opportunity. After all, he put up with Blaidd, he earned it. Good luck 12, you'll be a great asset to the Wiki Staff. It's a Yay from this St0ryTeller, Good luck my broseph... -- Teller Words, On my Screen :O 12:26, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) ...I don't have nearly as much to say as the two of you up there, but here's my part. Since very early on, I've seen 12 as an exceptional apprentice, actively and consistently contributing to the articles, and visiting frequently. I've also noticed him catch and appropriately revert poor or vandalizing edits on several occassions. Good editor, good contributor; the ranks could really use him. =GuardDog 12:39, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) I suppose I have to keep votes in uniform with the other nominations... "As nominator." -- 'R BlaiddDdraig  Enter...  THE SCARY DOOR  12:43, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) This really is a no-brainer for me. From the moment I joined, 12 has been my bro – A great source of conversation, advice and constructive criticism. He was always a benchmark for me as an Apprentice, and still remains so, even if I am of a technically higher rank than this godsend of a man, at the moment. This was a long time coming, and 12 deserves this position way more than I do. His editing is wonderful, his social attitude is insanely good, and his general awesomeness really just clinches it for me. If I had to choose my favourite Apprentice ever, 12 would be the prime candidate, (No offense to the rest of you, you're all awesome). I could go on for hours, but I will leave it here, I think. Good luck to you Twelve – To quote something that has happened a lot on the IRC over the 6 or so months I've been here, Elchzard brohugs Subject 12. Hope to see you right here beside me very soon indeed. :) Elchzard  (Talking is fun) 22:07, November 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) -- Jasca Ducato Council Chamber Assassination record 01:06, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) Although I have had a more than substantial absence, one thing I am certain of is 12's dedication to the wiki. Before I left, 12 was early to impress me with excellent quality edits, his patient, humble and civil attitude towards both staff and general users alike as well as a library of other assets. Eager to do his bit and then some. I see that nothing has changed since I've been gone, all he's done is continue to exceed expectations and grow into a user more than worthy of this nomination. So it's a definite YAY from me. Great editor, great guy! *Bows head* You are a great asset to this wonderful little community of ours 12. (Also send me the deets of your avatar preferance, so I can prep the awesome XD) -- ☘ Sikksta ☘  ➜ ☎Talk☎  01:39, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) Just like Jasca up above, nothing really for me to say that everyone else hasn't already. Well done, 12, you've earned it. -- Rayne  Message 01:42, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 8) Guess this what happens when we vote after most of the Staff are done, Rayne. --Vatsa ( talk • Gentek ) 03:07, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 9) I'm not one for speeches so, yes. Good luck out there. -- Jack WallsinFamous 09:20, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 10) I don't feel like talking, but yeah, you earned it. -- Master Sima Yi 13:31, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

User:Amnestyyy - Graduated into the Istruttorium
Although I think Blaidd overestimates the importance others give to his long votes (quoting Vatsa, "I'm just happy there aren't any long speeches here.."), his vote and others are an yay. So welcome to the brotherhood, sister. -- D. Cello 15:28, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

We all know Nesty. Dedicated editor, does lots of work, always asking for more. Very knowledgeable on the series and a friendly person on the IRC. Finished her apprenticeship now and thus is getting nominated into the Istruttorium. I support her, and I would've written more here if I did not have such a headache. -- Master Sima Yi 15:38, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As nominator. -- Master Sima Yi 15:41, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Nesty has constantly shown that she is worthy. A hard worker, Nesty always is happy to answer questions for new users and is definatley a community friendly person. I really wish her all the best.  Subject 12  Talk to me 15:52, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) I approve, seems to be doing very good quality work around here. =GuardDog 16:22, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) No explanation necessary. -- Jack WallsSupermen 19:00, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) Yay. Nesty is one of the most hard working editors here. Assassin-Rome  (Talk if you will) 19:32, December 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) I know you were all expecting a nice long essay from me detailing all of Amy's strong and weak points but... I just can't do that right now. Maybe once I have my things sorted I'll write a... a... I'm sure there's a word for this. Like when you present something that is no longer necessary but people are curious to what it said so you present it anyway. $30 to whoever brings me answers. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig  Enter...  THE SCARY DOOR  01:19, December 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) I could be writing a long speech about the hardwork she has put in, about what she's done for Staff, her community friendly personality ect.. But I'm too lazy to go into too much detail so I'll just sum it up. She's been a very valuable editor to the ACWiki and has improved the quality of several articles that we have seen, she hasn't been unfair on reasoning for muting, kicking or, in some cases, banning a user. I believe she deserves the opportunity. Oh, Blaidd, I think you meant "speech" or something... I want my 30 bucks now. XD Oh, and it will be awesome to see how Steen manages too make Ezio so lady-like. Steen, if you see this, when making this, if you still have Ezio's original face with the "clevage".. show us. Just for lolz XD  Teller  Words, On my Screen :O 01:35, December 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * 8) I'm just happy there aren't any long speeches here.. --Vatsa ( talk • Gentek ) 03:18, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

User:Nostalgia AC - Voting
Since Nos has reached the end of his apprenticeship, I feel he's ready for your evaluations, everyone. He's very active, and always eager for work, writing out articles both well and very quickly. He specializes in location and event articles, and possesses enough AC knowledge for both. He's ready, and I support him, so your votes or comments would be much appreciated. =GuardDog 23:47, February 8, 2012 (UTC)

Yay

 * 1) As nominator. =GuardDog 23:47, February 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) In a bit of a rush, so no long memorable speech today. Plus I don't know Nos all that well so it'd be quite difficult for me to do the whole DnM thing. So... *SKIP*. -- 'R BlaiddDdraig  Enter...  THE SCARY DOOR  03:17, February 9, 2012 (UTC)
