Great enthusiasm but I'm not buying what he's selling. -- &oelig; &trade; 10:29, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * You're certainly entitled to your own opinion, but I can assure all of you that my candidate statement is not just empty promises. It should be obvious from my track record that I have no fear standing up to the powerful to uphold principles.--NWA.Rep (talk) 12:30, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Hate to break it to you but, your statement, your blocks, and your attitude towards this doesn't seem to make you a great candidate. — c y b e r p o w e r  (  Talk to Me  ) (  Contributions  ) 01:03, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Anyone who is proud of displaying "China=shame" on their userpage will have ridiculously insane POV problems if they ever get elected to ArbCom. → Σ  τ  c . 03:39, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * It didn't really stop User:Jiang from becoming an admin even though he had Taiwan=shame on his userpage and still has an offensive image on his userpage accusing Dalai Lama of owning slaves, cursing President Chen, and celebrating 921 earthquake. But then again there are 1.3 billion Chinese and only 23 million Taiwanese, so I guess no one in Wikipedia cares about Taiwanese given that he got the mop and has been gang patrolling Taiwan-related articles for years. So much for NPOV. As for my blocks, all of them were addressed in my statement subpage. Every single one of them was controversial due to either deliberate baiting from members of WP:China or admins' double standard or overstepping their boundaries.--NWA.Rep (talk) 08:39, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Arbcom has a lot more responsibility then a measly admin. Also I presume you're referring to Jiang's current user page since it hasn't changed since 2009 . I've seen that photo before, I think from Jiang's user page. I never got the impression Jiang was intending to endorse the messages the person in the photo is spreading. In fact the file itself when it uploaded by Jiang says the these are ultra Chinese nationalism slogans although as I remarked in the talk page a long while back, that's obvious from the English slogan. I expect most people just laugh at the photo (not because of the message but because of the the person saying 'happy, happy, happy' while making some rather extreme claims or simply the oddity of some random dude espousing Chinese nationalism in the street) rather then taking any sort of serious political message from it and in fact in the deletion discussion Jiang said it was meant to amuse. In other words, there is a very big difference between Jiang's userpage and yours. And IMO suggesting they are comparable doesn't bode well for you as an arbitrator (although I decided to oppose you before I read any of this). Edit: Looking in to this some more, Jiang's RFA was back in 2003 with 8 supports and no opposes Successful requests for adminship/2003. Whatever rights or wrongs were made in that decision, suffice it to say wikipedia was a very different place then. Also Jiang didn't even have a user page  then. Really the more I look in to this, the worse a comparison it seems to be. Nil Einne (talk) 16:26, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
