Kingturtle

My name is Oliver Brown. I have been a Wikipedian since February 2003, serving as a contributor, copyeditor, policeman, administrator and bureaucrat. I am fair, empathetic, articulate, firm and forgiving. An arbiter should be tactful and considerate. One must remember that there is a face behind each user name.

In regards to what experience I have that would help the Arbitration Committee, I’ve created a WikiCity to chronicle underground music in my local community. I teach history in a public high school. I’ve served as the PTA parliamentarian, and currently serve on the Equity Team. I’ve written rulebooks and by-laws for various projects - including (when in my teens) arbitration by-laws for a homemade baseball little league we had on my street. My BA is in Political Science.

In regards to how the committee should handle disputes, this is how I would lay it out: the arbiters should not know the usernames or identities of those involved in a dispute. Each side of the dispute would submit a report making their case; the report would refer to PERSON A and PERSON B, keeping the arbiters in the dark. There’s more to the process, but that’s the gist.

In regards to the banning question, I wouldn’t rule out a ban as a last resort. It’s like expelling a kid from school. There’s a process - a long process, even for serious offenses. The number one task at hand is to create a wikipedia - an encyclopedia formed and shaped by the minds of thousands - but can it be done fairly and without hurt to contributors? This is a great social experiment. As a committee member, I will take great care in understanding the various points-of-view at hand, and I will try to find solutions that will bring dignity to all. I will also work to create procedures that are efficient and fair. I feel wikipedia is important and vital to mankind. I am devoted to it. Kingturtle 07:40, 7 January 2006 (UTC) reply

Kingturtle

My name is Oliver Brown. I have been a Wikipedian since February 2003, serving as a contributor, copyeditor, policeman, administrator and bureaucrat. I am fair, empathetic, articulate, firm and forgiving. An arbiter should be tactful and considerate. One must remember that there is a face behind each user name.

In regards to what experience I have that would help the Arbitration Committee, I’ve created a WikiCity to chronicle underground music in my local community. I teach history in a public high school. I’ve served as the PTA parliamentarian, and currently serve on the Equity Team. I’ve written rulebooks and by-laws for various projects - including (when in my teens) arbitration by-laws for a homemade baseball little league we had on my street. My BA is in Political Science.

In regards to how the committee should handle disputes, this is how I would lay it out: the arbiters should not know the usernames or identities of those involved in a dispute. Each side of the dispute would submit a report making their case; the report would refer to PERSON A and PERSON B, keeping the arbiters in the dark. There’s more to the process, but that’s the gist.

In regards to the banning question, I wouldn’t rule out a ban as a last resort. It’s like expelling a kid from school. There’s a process - a long process, even for serious offenses. The number one task at hand is to create a wikipedia - an encyclopedia formed and shaped by the minds of thousands - but can it be done fairly and without hurt to contributors? This is a great social experiment. As a committee member, I will take great care in understanding the various points-of-view at hand, and I will try to find solutions that will bring dignity to all. I will also work to create procedures that are efficient and fair. I feel wikipedia is important and vital to mankind. I am devoted to it. Kingturtle 07:40, 7 January 2006 (UTC) reply

  34. Support (somewhat weakly).

  44. Oppose. Candidate does not adequately address the nature of arbitration in their candidate statement. In ignorance: I must oppose.
