Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements/Mailer diablo

Mailer diablo

 * With my candidacy I hope to bring some new perspective to the Committee, along with more than 5 years of editing experience I have gained. Be it Golden or Dark Ages here, I seen through it all. I have worked in many different aspects of Wikipedia, from grunt work of clearing backlogs that nobody is willing to clear, to collaboration in article-writing, to more recently dealing with sensitive issues of oversight requests.


 * I would like to continue the good work that has been done to streamline the day-to-day process of dispute resolution so far. One has to understand that just like the London Underground, the aging stress that has been haunting the Committee in the recent years cannot be fixed overnight. More can be done to manage, delegate and lighten up the workload of committee, which I hope to do should this opportunity be given to me.


 * My principles have always been for transparency and fairness; to uphold the integrity of any offices I carry. Over time I have developed a resistance against drama, which I would like to carry it on should I be elected. Rest assured that drama-mongers shall be awarded a Yellow card, trolls and troublemakers be shown the Red.


 * I'm Mailer Diablo and I approve this message!
