Comments

 * Support. Does good work in the right areas. Shows experience of mediation, and of wanting to help people. Is level headed and calm. Has the right attitude. Is not here for reasons of vanity or attention seeking or making friends, but to assist in building the encyclopedia. Has shown the strength to make difficult decisions. Yet one of the qualities that make this candidate fit for the job (not grabbing attention, just getting on quietly on backwater talkpages with patient and wise mediation) has gone against her in previous elections.

 * Supported. I've seen this candidate around the block, and have been pleased with the work done. Has the experience necessary to do the job. The answers to questions generally seem to reflect what I believe to be community consensus, and it is important to not only have a strong arbitrator, but to have an arbitrator that reflects the community's desires. --Mpdelbuono (talk) 01:44, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * As in previous efforts, I will once again support you. My general feel is that your objectivity is paramount to being a good arbitrator.--MONGO 03:58, 3 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Opposed. This candidate is biased. In one dispute over editing she threatened to block me, but allowed the other party to keep reverting as they pleased. She took sides right away with the other administrator. Beware of this candidate.George Al-Shami (talk) 01:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
