Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry

 * Well, where to start? Most of you will have seen me around and recognise my username. I joined Wikipedia in 2004 as an IP, and created this account in 2005. In November 2007 I became an administrator with a 98/2/0 pass (the only serious oppose being over my username). I since became involved in OTRS, answering the Foundation's private emails and phone calls, and even more recently running the official Twitter account, @Wikicontribute, working closely with staff from the office and members of the public.


 * I'm running for ArbCom for one main reason: other editors have asked me to. The skills I've garnered from OTRS would help no end with the work that ArbCom does, as a lot of it involves private information and mediating between editors and sometimes contentious parties (who are often the subjects of articles). I've been involved with nearly all parts of Wikipedia, and feel confident that I have both the free time and the life experience to carry out the role to a high standard. I think my question answers should tell you how I feel about particular policies or decisions, but as always, if you have any questions, please ask!
 * Disclosure: I used to edit as until I changed my username via WP:CHU in August 2007. I have not edited under any other accounts, but did once create doppelganger account, which I no longer remember the password for.


 * Many of you will no doubt have concerns about my lack of content creation, I therefore give you RMAS Typhoon (A95) and Bird class patrol vessel, my two content creations from the previous month. Most of my absences in my editing history are directly linked to training courses I attended in the previous year, of which I need to take two weeks (minimum) per year.
