Sdrqaz
Hi there. I'm Sdrqaz, an editor and administrator.
If elected to the Committee, I can offer:
- An independent voice that will stand up for the right thing, even if it is unpopular.
- As a deliberative body, the Committee needs diverse perspectives to make the best decisions.
- I will not be obstructionist or contrarian for its sake, but will speak up to refine and strengthen the Committee – I will take others' opinions into account, working with my colleagues and the Community.
- I have consistently shown this through my votes at requests for adminship, as well as my willingness to decline requests when they are out of policy, even when they come from highly-experienced users.
-
A belief that all administrators hold position of responsibility and trust – it is their (and my) duty to the Community to be accountable.
- Administrators have much hard power ( unilateral topic bans and other restrictions in some areas) and soft power (social capital).
- As a result, I will take allegations of misconduct seriously and will examine them as thoroughly as possible.
- Nuanced thinking: very few things are black-and-white.
- I will not be a hanging judge – every editor is human too and can make mistakes. What matters is how they respond to feedback and scrutiny – do they listen and improve, or do they scold the person that was brave enough to call them out?
If I fail to keep these promises, please tell me. Part of being a Wikipedian is the need to always listen and learn: that did not change after I became an administrator and will not change if I am elected.
An overview of my content work (such as 
shadow docket) and administrative work is on my user page. I look forward to listening to the Community and welcome your questions.
