Statement

[edit]

As Wikipedia expands, it continues to suffer growing pains. This has increased the stress and workload on its administrators. Every administrator wears two hats: editor, and janitor. As an editor, every admin has the same rights and responsibilities as every other editor. As janitors, admins have more options, and with those options come increased responsibility. Sometimes, when things are most stressful, administrators can confuse their hats, and mistake the janitor hat for that of a "supereditor." When this occurs, unhappiness ensues. In my view, the most difficult problems Arbcom had to deal with this year concerned exactly this issue.

It's the nature of any semi-judicial body that at least one party will be unhappy about their decision. Arbcom can't avoid that sort of criticism. What they can do, however, is to zealously guard the principle of transparency, so that when they make a decision its underlying principles are clear. This means favoring open process over closed process, avoiding secret appeals and secret evidence except as a last resort (for example, when required by law), and explaining the rationales behind their decisions in clear and simple language.

People who only disrupt the encyclopedia should be banned. But every editor has the right to be treated civilly, even during disagreements. It is never appropriate to ignore civility.

I have been editing for several years now, and strive diligently to strike a balance between caution and common sense as both an editor and an administrator. If selected as an arbitrator, I will continue to do the same for that role. As an arbitrator, my first concern will be examining requests with seriousness, respect, and civility. I will bring as much transparency and efficacy to the process as I can. Thanks.

One more thing that's probably worth mentioning: I'm very unlikely to use IRC, because I think the dynamics of communication there are terrible. I prefer on-wiki communications whenever possible, or email.

  59. Weak support, because openness is an important principle. The secrecy surrounding the ArbCom, the private mailing list etc. need to be abolished.

  28. Strong Oppose. Quite possibly the worst admin on wikipedia; should be desysopped, not promoted. Appears prone to wikistalking, threats, and vindictiveness.

    Oppose Look at his (long) edit history. Patronizing and preachy Edit Summaries. Heavyhanded reverting of edits he did not agree with [2]. This example is where he reverted a very reasonable edit by Richard Stallman who was attempting to tone down some particularly hurtful attacks on him in his biography. Seems to lack sensitivity to people. Has a tendency to revert edits he does not agree with. Seems to want to win battles rather than build consensus. The number on Oppose votes suggests that he has managed to antagonize a large number of people. Is this the sort of person we want on the arbitration committee? Abu ali 15:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  35. Oppose Nan, I'm sorry, but your past actions have shown abuses of power which if had been pursued to fullest extend could have resulted in being desysopped. I cannot, and will not, support such a user to ArbCom. While you have been improving since, I do not yet have faith you will repeat this again.

  41. Oppose. Makes up policies to fit his editing agenda. 1) Declared that the number of hits a web page received was indicative of its authority. 2) Interprets WP:NOR not in the spirit of identifying "crank" theories, but in order to delete non-controversial facts written by experts. 3) Rewrites articles and ignores consensus of editors. 4) Issues "muppet" calls to Wikipedia buddies who have never editted the particular article to get blanket general support for his edits. 5) Asserts other editors can't read and then posts complaints when he gets an incivil reply. That is he shows a tendency to bait and invoke procedure when he's lost an argument. Jlambert 05:31, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
