Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2006/Vote/Daniel

Statement
Short, sweet and to the point: The Arbitration Committee is something I've always admired on Wikipedia. It's functionality and methodologies are second-to-none. However, lately, I've been seeing some views presented, by experienced- and new- users alike, that the Arbitration Committee is becoming more and more segregated from the "normal community" in its views and decisions - by which, I refer to the general editors. I am not an administrator, however I feel that not being an administrator does not mean a person couldn't do this job. In fact, I think there should be more input from those not with "the tools" - although, by definition, sysops are just "regular users with a couple more buttons", in practice a lot they tend to see the technical, not the community side, all too regularly. This is why I have nominated myself; because I believe there should be a smattering of those who may see things slightly differently to those who are currently in the positions of the AC or administrator. Whether it's me, or whether it's another experienced editor who is not a sysop (by experienced, I mean at least 6-7000+ edits, preferably 10,000+, like myself - as a rough guide), I'd like to see one in there; either now at this election, or one in the near future. It's not that they don't do a good job - that couldn't be father from the truth - but they do tend to see things slightly differently, from my observations. Another, slightly different perspective on the Arbitration Committee "board" to provide insight into dealing with Wikipedia's largest and most complex problems is by no means the worst thing could happen - it might even be the best. Cheers.

Not everyone wants to be an Admin, nor has the infrastructure. Being on the road as much as you are, it strikes me that you made a great assesment of what you could best do to contribute.

 * 57) Oppose - not being a sysop is perfectly fine, but I think 6 months of experience just isn't enough to become an arbitrator - it should be at least a year. I've also got to admit that the emphasis on edit count ("at least 6-7000+ edits, preferably 10,000+, like myself") for determining whether someone's experienced and/or suitable to be an arbitrator seems a wee little bit elitist to me. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 13:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

 * 75) Oppose (regretfully). There are many reasons to support this user but I am worried about the extremely high level of self confidence at such a young age, exhibited by answers to questions, RFA, etc. Time will likely show how much there is to learn, mainly about interactions with people, which is vital experience for the Arbitration Committee.  Please note that I am not voting to oppose because I assume I have this right, but because I see it as a risk and the level of risk causes me to lean toward oppose. -- Renesis (talk) 16:20, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * 76) Oppose. Although I in principle like the idea that a non-admin could serve on Arbcom in the right conditions, I don't think it's appropriate here: too young, too little time (though I hesitate to say experience) on Wikipedia. Also, I don't think the ArbCom is a good place to find out what happens when a user first gets Wiki-power.  Mango juice talk 18:32, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
