User:Ealdgyth/2016 Arb Election votes

It's that time of year again...

Note that I'm looking for folks who have their eye on the main point of this whole enterprise - writing an encyclopedia. With that in mind, I want content contributions, or at least the concept that they support content contributors. If you're an admin or not really doesn't matter to me at all. In fact, NOT being an admin should be a requirement for at least one of the seats, quite honestly. I'm also looking for folks who don't get so wrapped up in enforcing civility or rules that they forget that first goal above, the writing of the encyclopedia. I don't want to have my work interrupted by idiots who don't know the first thing about subject matter but who seem to think that their opinion on some tangental matter should trump the folks in the trenches writing the content and dealing with the vandals.

To that end - I expect folks to have at least 45-50% of their contributions to article space, unless they show a LOT of clue in supporting content creation. Stupid ruleslawyering or spending ages at ANI will not get you much support here. Well, that's a great goal, but no way can I just judge candidates on that ... because very few candidates meet that standard. And a few of the ones that do, are not otherwise qualified, at least in my eyes.

In line with the last few years, I'm much less likely to approve of folks who are hardline on civility, for example. Also note that I do not consider myself suited for ArbCom, I do not deal well with high stress situations nor do I have the tact required. Whether I think someone is suited for ArbCom has nothing to do with whether I think they are good contributors to the project in other means.

As a side note, feel free to drop me a note on my talk page if you wish to discuss any of these.

7 slots. Ugh. 7 slots. How the heck can I possibly find 7 folks to vote for???

    1. No alternate accounts.
      1. Ran in 2007, 2010, 2012. I wasn't compiling guides in 2007, supported in 2010 and 2012. I'm very very weak on this support. The only thing swinging me into support here is his past record on the committee, which is (ironically) one of the main concerns. I think its entirely possible we've put NYB on the committee too much for his own good....but given the lack of otherwise qualified candidates, I have to weakly support.

      1. Ran in 2015 and withdrew. Like the answers to the questions. Nothing else is screaming "no" so going with support on this one.

      1. Ran in 2012, 2013, and 2014. I opposed in 2012, 2013, and 2014. I'm doubting I'll change my mind here. Opposing because of past opposition. Not seeing a lot to make me change my past belief.

Only 242 edits in the last year means I have to think they aren't much engaged with the project. And lack of answers to many of the questions is a further issue.
