Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections January 2006/Vote/Kim Bruning

Kim Bruning
I'm changing my candidate statement (the original can be found on the questions page). No-one said that I couldn't, and several have stated that I should. :-P I'd prefer to be a quiet fellow who doesn't want to be noticed too much, but on the other hand, I do want to pass the election.

You're probably wondering if you know me. In a sense, you probably do. If you're new to wikipedia this year, you were probably welcomed, and pointed to the Simplified ruleset, Policy trifecta or Five pillars as your first introduction to the wiki. I started the simplified ruleset project, so that people joining wouldn't be utterly lost in the now truly byzantine body of rules we have on wikipedia. Welcome! :-)

But you're probably wondering why I'm applying for the arbitration committee today:

Early this year, the mediation committee basically just stopped working. If you look at how wikipedia dispute resolution is organised and see how arbitration policy is laid out, you'll see that one of the tasks of mediation is to act as a gateway to the arbitration committee. Without a mediation committee to mitigate their workload, the arbitrators started burning out, one after the other.

What I did this year is to rapidly set up the Mediation cabal, as a stopgap measure to shore up mediation. It wasn't 'till much later that someone finally managed to restart the mediation committee, but until that time the mediation cabal held the line. Today it still exists for when you want to solve some small dispute.

So in summary, I've been helping out people on wikipedia, and making sure that there was an environment there for them that was conducive to the writing of an encyclopedia in peace and quiet.

If you're an administrator, you get extra buttons to help you sort out problems. In the mediation cabal, you have to find your own diffs, interview people, do your detective work, advocate both sides at once, all while not trying to look TOO crosseyed, and then decide what you need to do, and then figure out ways to carry it out. On the arbitration committee, you get Infrastructure. You don't get yet even more buttons, but rather more organisation. It allows you to work on actually figuring out what to do about a situation, with a lot of the distractions taken away. So I'd still be doing what I've always been doing, but I'd be able to do it a lot more effectively.

Can you help me achieve that?
