 * I am, with regret, opposing Hersfold because of his poor clerking of Arbitration/Requests/Case/Abd-William M. Connolley. While the parties and arbitrators bear the prime measure of responsibility for this as well, the inattention, failure to maintain decorum, and lack of enforcement of minimum standards of behavior inspire little confidence in his potential as an arbitrator.

 * Support Excellent candidate. Knows how the community thinks, calm, etc... King Pickle (talk) 03:08, 7 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Support: I first encountered Hersfold as the clerk in the Speed of light arbitration, in which I was a party. He was fair and even-handed to everyone, calm, diligent, promoted and exemplified civility, and in my opinion showed good judgment in all his actions (including the times he did not do what I wanted). I've since noticed some of his actions as an admin, and have been very favorably impressed with those. I think he will make an excellent arbitrator. —Finell 10:10, 7 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Support as I would have done last year. Has a good record, plenty of experience, and I like his platform. See User:Camaron/ACE2009 for details. Camaron · Christopher · talk 21:25, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
