 * De Heer van Tanba is Kutsuki Masatsuna (1750-1802) of, voluit, Kutsuki Oki no kami Minamoto no Masatsuna, een goede vriend van Opperhoofd Isaac Titsingh (1745-1812) aan wie deze zijn vertaling van de Annalen van Japan opdroeg, overigens zonder te weten dat deze inmiddels overleden was (cf. C.R. Boxer, Jan Compagnie in Japan 1600-1817. The Hague 1950, Appendix IV; F. Lequin, The private correspondence of Isaac Titsingh, I. [Japonica neerlandica, IV] Amsterdam 1990, Brief 201, pp. 459ff.). Overigens werd mij eerst na het uitspreken van deze rede duidelijk dat een bewerking van de catalogus van de collectie van de Heer van Tanba in voorbereiding is.

Jōō (貞応) = "righteous answer" ......... Jōō (承応) = "receiving answers"'''
 * Jōō (貞応) was a Japanese era name (年号, nengō, lit. year name) after  Jōkyū and before Gennin. This period spanned the years from 1222 to 1224. The reigning emperor was Go-Horikawa-tennō.
 * Jōō (承応), alternatively read as Shōō, was a Japanese era name (年号,) after Keian and before Meireki. This period spanned the years from 1652 through 1655. The reigning emperors were Go-Komyo-tennō (後光明天皇) and Go-Sai-tennō (後西天皇)

 * Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2008/Vote/Coren#Candidate statement;


 * More awareness of a growing issue that is poisoning the very essence of collaborative editing that makes Wikipedia possible: real-world factions that vie for control over articles, turning them into polemical battlegrounds where surface civility is used to cover bias, tendentiousness and even harassment. ArbCom needs to take a strong stance against that sort of "polite disruption" and those who use our rules of civility as weapons, recognize that long-term warriors are toxic, not vested, and investigate beyond surface behavior issues.


 * Less timidity in addressing issues related to contents (POV warring, tag teams, academic dishonesty). While it is appropriate that the Committee never rules on contents, it should be more active at curtailing content disputes. Academic integrity should become a priority; unlike "simple" incivility, the damage caused by editors misquoting, plagiarizing and editorializing destroys the credibility of our encyclopedia.


 * Increased transparency in the arbitration process, the Arbitrators must explain their decisions in better detail beyond a simple "aye/nay" and expose their reasoning and justification. It is important that the community understands why the Committee rules as it does, not just receive seemingly arbitrary edicts from "on high".

L'appartement de la rue Vaneau, 75007, Paris, France -- http://www.aei.ca/~anbou/clemensheller.html
 * "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
 * « Un petit groupe de citoyens engagés et réfléchis est capable de changer le monde. D'ailleurs rien d'autre n'y est jamais parvenu .»

Board elections/2011/en; Characteristics of effective trustees:
 * Strategic – e.g., to provide long term direction
 * Thoughtful – e.g., to avoid being reactionary to controversial issues
 * High integrity – e.g., to put the interests of the foundation as a whole over personal or specific constituent interests
 * Responsiveness – e.g., to email requests from other trustees
 * Follow through – e.g., to complete tasks such as committee assignments as committed.
 * Respectful – e.g., to listen carefully to other trustees' points-of-view even as they may differ from one's own
 * Collaborative – e.g., to partner with other trustees and the Executive Director on the Board's work

I'm not sure if its some sort of language barrier, or just your style, but your writing is a bit dense, and its hard to track exactly what it is you're getting at, but let me give it a shot. Generally speaking, Arbcom wants you to get someone else to work on your behalf to help you with what to say, when to say it, and how to say it.

 * ¶ Second, the finding and remedies of ArbCom would end the way it did without any intervention from CaspianBlue. The reason for this is simple, Teeninvestor's use of sources on Tang Dynasty is well within policy, ArbCom knows this and could refer the whole issue to WP:RSN. This means that the case was accepted specifically to look at user conduct.

 * The Nobel Prize website here makes it easy for anyone to listen to the Nobel laureate delivering this speech in English. I re-visited this lecture many times across a span of years.  I especially struggled with this one sentence. --Tenmei (talk) 15:13, 2 June 2009

This is a non-confrontational way to inform Caspian blue in non-confrontational terms that, regardless of whether his allegations are valid or invalid, the ability to stop is entirely within his/her ability to control. In brief, as the Nobel laureate says: "It is in your hands."

In this diff, I manage to respond in a constructive way about process without commenting on Caspian blue. The familiar [WP:baiting] tactic is marginalized. The escalating accusatory strategy is mitigated with measured, careful words. The edit history confirms that the message Caspian blue posted her on a clerk's talk page is not justified. It is, bluntly, another in a series of attempt to exacerbate tension, conflict, stress, drama in the face of diffs which do none of these things.


 * (This is the same copy to another ArbCom clerk for Tang Dynasty, Sam Korn) I'm seriously asking you to stop Tenmei continuing disruptive behaviors until the ArbCom case is closed. It is extremely frustrating that ArbCom clerks and Arbitrators just let Tenmei harass me. Tenmei has called me "toxic long-tern edit warrior" more than 10 times during the ArbCom case and attacked me with vicious verbal abuses . I can't imagine this kind of abuses has been condoned for two months, and if Tenmei were in other ArbCom cases like Macedonian or Obama case, he would have been already blocked for such behaviors. Since you're a ArbCom clerk, I'm asking you to warn him or impose an appropriate sanction to him. Thanks.

Caspian blue's newest gambit is not aggravated. It is a continuation of a persisting campaign. ArbCom's flawed findings of fact makes plain that it's pointless even to try to address any issue until I can write more effectively. This defines me vulnerable, as indeed I am. I have been a bystander as Caspian blue attacked others, and it informs my understanding of the word "vulnerable."

The word "no" is part of my vocabulary. It is clear, if not persuasive.
