[edit] Statement

I am running for the Arbitration Committee because I feel that there are not enough candidates already running to fill the open positions with acceptable nominees.

I stand specifically for a zero tolerance policy for administrative misconduct: any administrator who abuses administrative privilege (where "abuses" means uses in a manner inconsistent with policy where such use tends to create or intensify a disruption in Wikipedia") will be, at the very least, temporarily suspended as an administrator. Admins on Wikipedia have had a free hand for too long. I made many mistakes as an administrator, and it is my intention to see that no other administrator makes the same mistakes -- and that those who do, do not get the chance to make them again.

  4. Yes, she has attracted quite a bit of criticism, but a lot of that is unduly harsh. She was a hard working member of the ArbCom (and a clerk) before, and she has an unwavering commitment to the betterment of the 'pedia. - Mark 01:08, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

We have some disagreements on some policy issues, and I am not quite sure what she stands for right now, but in the past she has shown a willingness to do unpopular but necessary tasks, and I consider that to be something the project sorely needs. I respect her, and think she would probably do a good job on ArbCom. --Improv 09:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  23. Support. I like this user's stand on administrative misconduct. In addition, every decision-making body needs someone who can effortlessly conjure enough bad mojo at the right time to bitch slap groupthink before it spins out of control. Kelly Martin is that someone. --JJay 20:36, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
  24. Support. Administrator misconduct is the biggest unsolved problem at wiki. Their isn't a snoball's chance Kelly will be elected; most who vote are administrators and don't like the idea that they will be subject to any sort of restrictions. She deletes userboxes and is apparently pretty good at pissing people off. But, I have to support her based on the campaign statement. Justforasecond 21:32, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

  30. Support. This is my first and likely only ArbCom vote, but I felt compelled in this instance. Whatever objections I've had with KM's prior actions as an administrator and editor have no bearing (or possibly even a positive bearing) on my opinion that she would be an outstanding arbitrator. I am saddened by the multitudes of knee-jerk oppositions below. Powers T 15:17, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

  32. The candidacy, I thought, was a case of The Dog in the Manger, and I could not understand why he (the dog, metaphorically the candidate) wanted to increase drama. This is a user who is "not looking at" Wikipedia and yet wishes to be one of the arbitrators. There is no way, with all of the horrendous incivility and self-importance of her statements, on and off-wiki, that I could honor a vow not to vote against anyone (made before this candidate's candidacy) in this case.

  38. Perhaps my strongest opposition here. If based on nothing else, then the opening line of her candidacy statement. Her opinion that there are "not enough...acceptable nominees" demonstrates, in my mind, a gross failure of trust not just in the process, but in her would-be colleagues. ArbCom must be a unified entity. This contributor has shown behavior that expressly does not call to unity, and this candidacy itself exemplifies little more than that.

  58. Were I wholly ignorant of the candidate's history, I might, in view of certain parts of the candidate statement with which I agree, consider supporting; I cannot, though, to be sure, forget, well, everything delineated supra, and I think it quite clear that, whilst Kelly is in some ways particularly suited for ArbCom, she is particularly ill-suited in many more ways.

  62. Oppose. I love what she says in her statement, but it's impossible for me to have any faith in it at this stage. A few months ago she was one of the most (perhaps the most) extreme proponents of the admin fiat school of thought, abusing others on a regular basis. There needs to be time for her to show commitment to these views she now professes, along with consistent demonstration of a civil attitude towards others. She shouldn't just come back, say she's changed, and immediately run for ArbCom. Everyking 08:22, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  88. Opppose. While it is nice that Kelly confesses that she has made mistakes (she was not so forthcoming in the past), those mistakes are too many and too recent to judge reliably if she learned from them. Also, I don't agree with her "Admins on Wikipedia have had a free hand for too long" platform. In my experience the few cases involving admin misconduct have been dealt very well and on a case-by-case basis. No need to have in the arbcom a person who basically says "since I've been a bad admin I have low tollerance towards bad admins". Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 17:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  96. Oppose, I believe more time needs to be given before we as a community can say all is forgotten 100%. This is just way to controversial of a situation, and civility issues abound. Last I heard of this user they were admitting to provoking other admins ... just not the proper attitude and situation for an Arbitrator. --NuclearZer0 18:32, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  97. Oppose Since the apperance of bias is a big problem for institutions such as ArbCom candidates as controversial as Kelly are inapropriate even if there were no other concerns.

    Oppose, divisive actions. Withdrawn vote. Taking the platform at face value, I do want to commend KM for stating the intention to learn from mistakes and to try to prevent them in others, and therefore I am withdrawing my oppose vote.

  171. Oppose I think trust is essential for a arbitrator - even more than an admin. I can't support a person with a history of seriously problematic behaviour in such a position, even if he or she has recanted such behaviour, and has been a significant contributor to wikipedia. I also worry that someone saying "Admins on Wikipedia have had a free hand for too long" might have an axe to grind. Andjam 02:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  172. Oppose. Questionable committment to WP based on user page statements, plus history of failing to consider multiple viewpoints and build trust. Fairsing 02:50, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  173. Oppose to a metaphysical certitude. I never saw any satisfactory demonstration that Kelly Martin understood the community's objection to the User:Kelly Martin/B & User:Kelly Martin/Q, nor was contrition for the ill will & disruption ever adequately demonstrated. Further, my considered opinion is that Kelly Martin has a group of fellow admins who are unlikely to be faulted, despite the circumstances of the case. Kelly Martin has intelligence, critical thinking skills, and tenacity. However, quite frankly, I can't develop in Kelly the level of trust I'd like to have in an admin, much less an ArbCom member. --Ssbohio 05:29, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  174. Oppose I agree strongly with Kelly's platform. We do need more accountability for admins. I don't trust Kelly with that mandate though. -lethe talk + 06:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

I think Kelly's reason for even standing for election here is reprehensible: the candidates for ArbCom do represent excellent examples of Wikipedians, ones who by in large would serve well on ArbCom, and Kelly's view that nearly everyone is unacceptable is just way too jaded for me.
