=== Criteria ===

* personal experience: I'll be judging people by how they behaved in cases I've been in.
* availability: Iridescent may have been a nice chap but he failed in his duty to be there; he is hardly alone in this.
* clue: arbcomm is broken, badly. Anyone who thinks all is well, or needs minor tweaks, is a No.
* limits: arbcomm is an arbitration committee suffering badly from feature creep.
* old guard: too many timeservers; sitting arbs will need to have been good.

=== Stuff I'd like to see in people' statements ===

* I'd like arbcomm to think more about content and less about conduct.
* Arbcomm is lazy. To force them to be less so, and for the good of cases, only behaviour predating the opening of a case should be considered.

Generally I tend to like NW's views ([[User:NuclearWarfare/ACE2011]]), except on BLP where he is badly wrong; read [[WP:BLPZEALOT]] instead.

[[User:Monty845/ACE2011]] is worth a look.

{{/row|C=AGK|R=A,CU,OS|E=30,521|S=2006-02-27|T=Poor clerk during [[WP:ARBCC]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:William_M._Connolley&diff=388542420&oldid=388542068] etc.|V=-}}
{{/row|C=Coren|R=A,CU,OS,Arb|E=16,556|S=2003-05-27|T=Poor in [[WP:ARBCC]] and didn't really recover in the appeal. Not worth giving another chance.|V=-}}
{{/row|C=Courcelles|R=A,CU,OS|E=206,036|S=2006-09-17|T=Statement is vacuous, answers uninteresting, but what finally stopped me was that he has no ideas at all for improving the committee (see "broken", above).|V=-}}
{{/row|C=DeltaQuad|R=ex-A,OTRS|E=15,984|S=2007-11-07|T=Weak No. I don't know him, his answers are poor and verging on breaking several of my desires.|V=-}}
{{/row|C=Eluchil404|R=A|E=10,768|S=2006-03-02|T=Appears to have some clue, and is new. Venturing support.|V=+}}
{{/row|C=Geni|R=A,OTRS|E=27,643|S=2004-03-30|T=Was vaguely inclined to support before reading statement and answers. But anyone with no ideas for change just isn't thinking.|V=-}}
{{/row|C=Hersfold|R=A,CU,OS,ex-Arb|E=33,277|S=2006-12-21|T=Lightweight; fails "availability" criterion. Was rubbish clerk for [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Abd-William_M._Connolley]]|V=-}}
{{/row|C=Hot_Stop|R=None|E=831|S=2011-04-11|T=Joke|V=--}}
{{/row|C=Jclemens|R=A,OTRS,CU,OS,Arb,|E=32,210|S=2006-08-24|T=Would have been a no, based on ARBCC and [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&oldid=457410987#Motion]. But [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jclemens&diff=460248441&oldid=460230986] (a followup) is crap See-also [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2011/Candidates/Jclemens/Questions#Questions from Skinwalker]]|V=--}}

{{/row|C=Kww|R=A|E=55,932|S=2007-01-09|T=Statement is the best I've seen, some of the contributions look good too. Ideas for improvement are disappointing, and I've still got this nagging feeling I remember him from somewhere. I feel obliged to give someone strong support, and he just pips ST.|V=++}}
{{/row|C=Panyd|R=A,OTRS|E=9,044|S=2007-10-13|T=No, with regret. [[User:Panyd/Mental Health]] is tolerable in an admin, but breaks the "availability" condition. The BD RFC isn't good [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Badger_Drink#Outside_view_by_Panyd]. No proposals for change.|V=-}}

{{/row|C=SilkTork|R=A|E=51,864|S=2006-01-12|T=New, which is good. Statement better than most, answers sane if not really what I'd like. [Update, post election. I ended up seeing [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2009/Comments/William_M._Connolley&diff=329261315&oldid=329251376].

{{/row|C=Risker|R=A,OTRS,CU,OS,Arb|E=18,805|S=2005-12-27|T=One of the authors of the risible initial PD in ARBCC [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate_change/Proposed_decision&diff=380447420&oldid=380339148]; need I say more?|V=--}}

{{/row|C=Worm_That_Turned|R=A,OTRS|E=8,905|S=2008-07-13|T=Much like ST: appears sane. The KW RFC is a point in his favour.|V=+}}
