I don't see how the LoveVida link is ANY different than the other website links. Please elaborate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.225.34.102 (talk) 18:02, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Re: ArbClerk
No problem. Unfortunately, as I said, we only offer positions to highly experienced editors who are well established in the community. I can see that your account was registered back in 2007, but you've only been actively editing since August. While there's no particular guideline to required tenure, the ArbClerk position is a position of significant trust, so an editor would probably need an absolute minimum of a year's active work in order to be offered a position. Another necessity is experience in several "drama" situations, or otherwise undertaking difficult and/or unpopular but still necessary actions, and repeatedly handling them with a high level of civility and decorum, since as a clerk you would be responsible for maintaining order within your assigned cases; often a difficult task since tempers are frayed very thin by the time an issue reaches the Arbitration Committee.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and willingness, but at this time I don't feel you're experienced enough. I can let the clerk corps know you're interested (as we do keep a list of those who have expressed an interest), however I don't believe you would be offered a position for some time. Should you have any more questions, please let me know. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 03:37, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
