Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2019/Candidates/Calidum/Statement

Calidum
After having reviewed the candidates running in this year's race, I am concerned there could be a lack of new perspectives on the committee, so I therefore submit myself for consideration.

My name is Calidum. I have been an editor since 2011 and mostly focus on WP:RM, WP:ITNC and the occasional anti-vandal work. I am not a prolific content contributor, though I believe writing an encyclopedia is the most important thing this website should be about, and the committee needs to keep that in mind.

Yes, I have had some bouts of incivility in the past, the most recent of which in 2017. I stepped away from Wikipedia at that time, but I have been active for the past year.

If elected, I would like to see the committee become more transparent and work to address matters in a more fair and timely fashion to the benefit of all involved parties. I stand by many of the ideas I've raised in my previous runs to achieve these goals.

Now, for the standard disclosure, I will fully comply with the criteria for access to non-public data and am well over the age of majority in my country. I have three doppelgänger accounts: User:Hot Stop, User:Hotstoponwiki and User:Calidum Sistere.

Thank you for your reading this.
