Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections January 2006/Vote/Skyscrap27

Why am I, as a total newbie, nominating myself for this honorable place? The answer is not quite clear even for me. I would like to help Wikipedia as it's a great project. I see this honorable place as a chance to continue with my work reverting vandalism. I see that I will most likely not get a single vote, but I must give it a try. Just to say, I was there, I tried to make a difference. Thank you. If you give me a vote, thank you very much. :) Skyscrap27 20:05, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
I've been contributing on Wikipedia for a few months, but I've only just (a day ago) joined (created a username). Why should I be on an Arbitration Committee? I live in a real world (just like all of us) where fights do happen. When you're arguing with somebody, you don't need anybody to tell you what to do, what to say. Both sides need someone to say they're right. That's compromise. If you're a noob (and a lot of arguing happens between new members), you won't listen to somebody old and experienced (just like parents), first you'll listen to other newbies. If the Arbitration Commitee has a new member, it will gain more influence towards other newbies. You're most likely to listen to a person your "age" than to a old member. Of course, I realize that it's a long shot, but that's what I think. Thank you. Skyscrap27 12:54, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Major opinions:
- I agree with the proposed Bill of Rights (with minor objections to rule no. 3).
- I agree with the Arbitration Committee Code of Conduct (exception is recusion in case arbitrators feel strongly about some case (not someone), and I don't agree with it).
- Main job of ArbCom should be to insure growth and evolution of Wikipedia.
- ArbCom must be the highest body of Wikipedia and it must decide independently (it must not be under any pressure).
- Even more time must be spared to protect Wikipedia from advertising and vandalism.
- Vanity should be allowed (very limited, though), as long as in consists of pure facts only, not speculations or bragging.
