Hi, I'm BWilkins - I've been an editor here for many years, and an admin for a few. I'll be frank: this nomination may scare a few people. Good. I'm scared too. I'm scared that one or two of the current candidates might actually get onto ArbCom. Look, I've never "run" on scare mongering - but you've looked through the list, and I'm sure you have your concerns too.
Reality is: we have seats to fill on one of the most important volunteer bodies on this project, and they are going to be filled, one way or another.
So, let's go back to something: why are you scared of ME specifically?
  • Because I don't put up with BS?
  • Because I have been known to call a spade a spade?
  • Because I can recognize a dead horse when I see it?
  • Because I don't give a damn about "power and prestige", I give a damn about "solutions"?
  • Because I actually CARE about this project and its editors?
Do you think that maybe that's what ArbCom - and indeed this project as a whole - actually needs right now?'
I have a handful of alternate accounts: User:EatsShootsAndLeaves, User:7SeriesBOT, and 3 other unused potential bot accounts: 1SeriesBOT, 3SeriesBOT and 5SeriesBOT, and will, of course, identify myself to the Foundation
