FayssalF

After a deep thought coupled w/ some discussions via emails w/ some admins and users, i decided to nominate myself for the current ArbCom elections. Everyone here agrees that the Arbitration process is one of the main and essential processes in Wikipedia. The process helps us reach important decisions which affect users' participation in the project. However, many users argue that many requests take a long time to be decided upon. This is one area where i'd try to help at w/ the collaboration of the rest of the ArbCom members... One idea is to reduce the overall processing time by prioritizing complicated and long-term conflicts. Another is to try to contact involved parties to sort out their disputes while working at workshops trying to see if they could save some time by stepping back and agree on the main Wikipedia principles or the WP:FIVE in short.
My name is Fayssal Fertakh (age 34) and i am coming from Morocco, North Africa. I am a holder of a Bachelor of Business Administration degree and work in management while on a process of setting up my own business. I joined Wikipedia on April 2005 and became an admin on December of the same year. Since that time i've participated in many dispute resolution processes (mainly informal ones such as the Sri Lankan/LTTE conflict resolution, Western Sahara/Morocco conflict mediation, Israeli-Palestinian conflict and user mentorship, Eastern Europe historical conflicts, Music-related disputes) where i succedded in some and failed or still working on others. I also help at the Admin Coaching program training some future admins (User:Richardshusr/Admin coaching, User:Sahmeditor/AC, User:BrianWalker/AC). On the other hand, i've been elected twice to serve as a coordinator at the Military history WikiProject which some believe is one of the best organized and a model WikiProject.
With more than 35,000 edits and over 2,750 articles on my watchlist i must say that i've become very familiar w/ all Wikipedia processes. I also can help and communicate in 4 languages with/for people who prefer to approach admins or arbitrators in their own languages off-wiki.

    #Oppose per the notion that arbcom-l should be readable to all administrators. The mailing list deals with all sorts of things like checkuser and oversight data (which are restricted to a few limited users), for very good reasons. Because I greatly respect this user and came to this page with the intention to support, I hope the candidate clarifies their stance on this issue. Daniel 01:15, 4 December 2007 (UTC) My main concern has been clarified (link), so I'm withdrawing my oppose. Currently contemplating whether to support or remain neutral (abstain). Cheers, Daniel 22:59, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  22. Per Daniel and the fact that your answer on SPOV shows lack of clue.--Docg 01:18, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  23. I've regrettably changed my vote to oppose. I initially voted to support, but some of the answers to questions are of concern, and suggest to me that he needs to brush up on his understanding of the arbitration process and associate issues and try again next year. Rebecca 07:15, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  24. With regrets. You are an excellent admin and have helped with mediation. Though, I have read through your answers to the questions. I am concerned about your answer regarding Arbcom-l. As Daniel says, the list deals with confidential information (e.g. checkuser) which should not be made available to 1,000+ people. In other regards, I think you would be suitable for arbcom, but security of checkuser and other private information is the most important factor for me. --Aude (talk) 01:41, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  26. Chaz Beckett 05:27, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    Oppose - Per arbcom-l stance; way too many privacy issues with that. Otherwise, a qualified candidate. FCYTravis 06:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC) Candidate's clarification is satisfactory - I am withdrawing my opposition. FCYTravis (talk) 00:00, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  27. Oppose on occasion has a tendency to run with the pack and apply questionable blocks. Arbcom-l stance is an issue too. Martintg 11:33, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  44. Oppose. His writing style is difficult to read. This raises questions of communication ability. I also get the feeling that he doesn't quite "get it", and I wonder if he'll really have enough time for ArbCom if he's trying to start his own business. --Fang Aili talk 22:18, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  51. Oppose - He is a decisive person, something that ArbCom needs, but he tends to hold grudges,overreacts and jumps to unfounded conclusions, evidenced for example by making unfounded hacking accusations. If he does get elected, I hope he takes my concerns to heart and improves where lacking.--Alexia Death the Grey (talk) 11:13, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  52. Oppose less-than-perfect communication, and this statement is completely incorrect. ArbCom cases do not set "precedents", and that this candidate seems to think otherwise is rather troubling. --Action Jackson IV (talk) 13:37, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
