Seraphimblade
Hello, I'm Seraphimblade, an editor here since 2005 and administrator since March 2007. After some consideration, I've decided to stand for the Arbitration Committee.
I have experience with the arbitration processes via my work at arbitration enforcement. Through this process, I've learned a lot about what happens after an arbitration case, when the articles go back to editing under any restrictions in place.
I am not a prolific content writer. My work is more of a gnome, though I'll fill holes where I find them through the course of editing. A lot of the work I do on Wikipedia is to make difficult calls on contentious discussions and processes. I've learned through doing so that there is not always a way to make everyone happy, but it still needs to get done.
ArbCom gets the most difficult cases, the ones that the community could not resolve. It is a necessary final stop for those instances. Over recent years, I've seen, whether one agrees or disagrees, an erosion of trust in ArbCom to handle those cases. I hope to work toward restoring that trust by ensuring cases are resolved fairly and in a reasonable time frame, and by close engagement with the community regarding any concerns.
I have edited under the accounts Seraphimbladeflying and Seraphimbladepublic when using public terminals or networks to avoid placing my admin account credentials at risk of interception. I also edited for a few months as an IP doing minor edits before registering this account, but as this was eight years ago and it was a dynamic IP, I would not know what they were. I am over 18 years of age and am willing to follow the WMF identification requirements. Seraphimblade Talk to me 18:55, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
