User talk:Gerda Arendt/ACE 2018

Question from Liz
Gerda, what is the nom day and answer day number? How you are scoring the answer? What's the scale? Why would your view of the answer change? Or have I gotten your columns completely wrong? Liz Read! Talk! 03:48, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Liz, nom day is the day in November the candidate entered, answer day the day he or she answered. I give the reason for the "good" symbol in the text: "good for me". Drmies puts best what I like to hear: I agree with OR even if I don't. Smoothes the process, DYK? See also. I have been on the receiving end of arbcom, as SilkTork explained (and defended) thoroughly, so have my own perspective, . When I want to discuss answers, I do it openly on the ACE pages. Here, everyone can just read and evaluate, and perhaps vote exactly for the candidates whose answers I didn't mark as good. None of those candidates will destroy the wiki ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:49, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, Gerda, I appreciate you asking the question and putting together a candidate guide. Every guide is different which is great for editors reviewing them. Thanks for the explanation. Liz Read! Talk! 23:23, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I did it every year. The first year when I really couldn't believe what happened, I asked three questions, then trimmed it to one, then was asked to find a different topic, and obliged ;) - I asked this question last year already, - thank goodness nothing more interesting came up. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:30, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
