Ellsworth, not to be confused with
Emsworth, has been around for nearly a year and accumulated over 4000 edits. He has made valuable contributions to articles dealing with financial transactions, taxation, and law, areas where Wikipedia's content still struggles to be adequate. I think with his calm demeanor and open-minded approach to discussion, he would be an excellent administrator. His experience indicates an understanding of Wikipedia policy, and his user page shows that he understands the basic principles that underlie all our policies. --

Not that being confused with Lord Emsworth is anything to be ashamed of, either. --

RickK 23:54, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC) A very prolific and worthy editor.
Support -German based articles looks very good. We need translators.--

Um, actually, I don't know German. I just have looked at some German-language articles that looked like they had good material and were about topics that interested me, and put translation requests up. Then when translations were complete I'd come in and do some light copyediting, only as to grammar and syntax.

I've been very impressed with Ellsworth -- we've had some minor disagreements, and he's maintained a positive and constructive attitude throughout.

Support - being a banker by profession, I have remained associated with financial matters and relevant law and taxation. I saw some of Ellsworth's edits and found them 'worthy'.--

Support. He maintains a level head and he deals with articles on politics? What's his secret? --

Questions for the candidate A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. I haven't kept a "brag list", because mostly I've been doing a lot of editing of typography, punctuation, and grammar. As the nomination notes, I've been mostly contributing substantively to articles about
law and
finance. Two of the ones I've done most work on have been
negotiable instrument and
surety bond.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and will deal with it in the future?
A. No edit conflicts over articles that haven't been worked out with a couple of posts to the article talk page. I don't get stressed, because I truly try to adhere to the philosophy set forth on my
user page.
