 * Ambi has my endorsement because I believe her to be one of the current AC's wisest and fairest critics -- I know from my conversations with her that she has thought at length and with depth about the problems the AC has faced, and while I do not always agree with her conclusions, I respect greatly her openmindedness, her fairness, and her willingness to innovate.

 * Support. Strongly. Very sensible. Wolfman 02:16, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Strongly support. I'm a new user, and she's one of the few Wikipedians I've found to be both impressive and capable of staying outside her own biases.  Level-headedness is a must for this role, and Ambi's near cornered the market when it comes to Wikipedians.  Insert various other echoes of ShaneKing's endorsement here. Shem 14:56, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Ambi has earned my endorsement.   – Quadell (talk) (help)   03:58, Nov 22, 2004 (UTC)
 * Ambi has said that she has come to respect me despite significant ideological differences. I will more than return the compliment since I believe that Wikipedia must embrace not only divergent views, but also the people who see through people's opinions to the people themselves. Gladly support. -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 06:39, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * 100%, In my conversations with Ambi, she has demonstrated that she is a very understanding and coolheaded person. Ambi makes Wiki a better place.Tony the Marine

Oppose

 * Oppose. Ambi intruded into a request for mediation to insert personal comments with no substance whatsoever. (See Requests for mediation/Archive 11.) We could expect the same tendentiousness if she were put into a position of power. Shorne 07:21, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Ambi is female. RickK 06:43, Nov 20, 2004 (UTC)
 * I changed he to she on a previous version of this. Unfortunately, that correction was lost when Michael Snow deleted this page. Shorne 19:46, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Hurt my feelings. - Xed 13:51, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Extrapolates irrationally. example. Deletes negative feedback immediately. example --Rebroad 17:27, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * A glance at my talk page and archives reveals praise and disagreements alike. That was a one-off case several months ago, due to special circumstances, and I've had no reason to repeat it since. Ambi 04:45, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Would support in future if Ambi resists the bait and avoids taking sides. HistoryBuffEr 01:15, 2004 Dec 1 (UTC)
