Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2007/Vote/Shell Kinney


 * I apologize for the lateness of this addition, however, I chose to give the person time to correct their statement first. I did not at any time call another editor a cretin.  The statement being referred to is in reference to a person who stalked, or encouraged the stalking of a number of Wikpiedia editors.  Anyone who is not aware of the situation is welcome to email me for a full explanation. Shell babelfish 03:28, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Oppose. The candidate pushed with vigor for his fringe exclusionist interpretation of fairuse policy. This shows lack of concern for the encyclopedic content. The latter is a concern for holding the position of any influence in this project. --Irpen 00:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

 * 13) Oppose less robustly Of all the declared OTRS candidates, this is the one I would have most liked to support; my reasons for opposing do not prevent ever voting for an OTRS agent. But I cannot swallow what seems automatic desysopping for the reversal of any OTRS action, and the answer to Daniel's fourth question comes too close to that.

 * 23) Strongly oppose. The same that last time: I and many other good faith editors had a terrible experience with Shell as administrator in the infamous White People article case, where she supported a disruptive editor (that was eventually banned but not without much grief and struggle) systematically. I don't think she has meditated about this or at least I have no indication of it. Also I am starting to become suspicious of her ambition and motivations. --Sugaar (talk) 01:09, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
