Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2006/Vote/Wildthing61476

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Statement

In my time here at Wikipedia, I have discovered that a lot of the heated discussions, arguments, and personal attacks are handled, and resolved through the work of the Arbitration Committee. I feel that I would be a good addition to this committee, as I have dealt with issues I have seen with even-handedness, keeping my cool when accusations are thrown my way, and my ability to listen to all sides before passing judgment. I welcome any and all questions, and I will do my best to answer them in a timely fashion. I also respect the opinion of my fellow Wikipedians as to my worth in an ArbCom position, be it good or bad.

Questions

[edit] Support

1. Moral support semper fi — Moe 05:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
2. Moral support - you mean well. --Elaragirl^Talk|Count 19:09, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
3. Moral Support. Nishkid64 01:26, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

   Strong Support - Users are one of the main pillars that keep wikipedia running, growing and surviving; by managing a lot users wikipedia sure can grow; sometimes users can auctually be more important than articles. By looking at both sides of an argument and argumenting wisely, wikipedia sure will improve. --TomasBat 01:32, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

   As much as I hate to remove one of your supports, this user did not sign up before October 1, so they are ineligible to participate. -Amarkov ^blah_edits 01:38, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

4. Support, inexperience isn't much of an argument in my view. If one has never been to the Moon before, should one not go? Mallanox 00:54, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
5. Support <leap of faith> Fantailfan 03:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oppose

8. - crz crztalk 00:56, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
9. While your role as editor is laudable, I'm not sure that you'll make a good ArbCom member. I interpret your candidate statement as a major reliance on ArbCom to resolve disputes, when many disputes are actually resolved through other, less formal channels. --²¹⁰physicq (c) 00:58, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

42. —Viriditas | Talk 02:36, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
43. Moral support is one thing, but voting support when you really mean oppose is a terrible thing to do. --Cyde Weys 18:46, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
44. I would have a hard time supporting someone who has only been here half a month, and the lack of answers to a lot of questions seems to reinforce the perception that Wildthing is too new and inexperienced to function on the arbcomm. So, oppose. Guettarda 20:22, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
45. I don't think the candidate is wholly unqualified, but the absence of the answers to many questions further complicates one's not having very much on which to base support here; as Cyde, et al., I eschew moral supports, but this can, I think, be construed as an oppose w/moral support. Joe 22:02, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

50. Sarah Ewart 18:39, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
51. Oppose. In particular, some essential question sets left unanswered. As much as I'd like to give you the benefit of the doubt, you do need to demonstrate a good knowledge of policy to achieve this position. —Lantoka ^{( talk | contrib)} 03:22, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
