Questions from Brian New Zealand

 * I will be asking the same questions to every candidate thus they do not specifically target you


 * Do you hold any strong political or religious opinions (e.g. concerning George Bush, Islam etc) If so, would you recluse yourself from cases centred on these?


 * How would you handle a case in which you were personally involved?


 * How willing are you to contest the decisions of other arbitrators rather than just "go with the flow"?


 * How many hours a month do you think you will need to be a good Arbitrator and are you really willing to put in the time?


 *  Do you think that someone who is critical of Arbitration Committee decisions is in violation of WP:AGF?


 *  If chosen, you will need to arbitrate on disputes arising from the creation or revision of articles. Experience of creating and revising articles yourself, particularly where it has involved collaboration, is very valuable in understanding the mindset of disputants who come to arbitration. With reference to your own edits in the main article namespace, please demonstrate why you think you have the right experience to be a good arbitrator?


 * What are your views with regards to transparency of ArbCom decisions?


 * Do you think that administrators should be treated differently to non-administrators in ArbCom decisions?
