This utilitypage is for asking a question of a candidate. Editors who are [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Vote|eligible to vote]] may also ask a question, via one of the following methods:
#'''General questions:''' Editors submitted these from 27 October through 10 November; they appear first.
#[[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements/Questions/General|Ask a '''general question''']]: post a question on that link. ''All'' candidates will then be able to copy the question over to their Question page and will respond as they see fit.
#'''Individual questions:''' Eligible voters may ask an individual question of one or more candidates; it can be added to the section underneath the general questions. Please keep questions succinct and relevant, and do ensure you are not overlapping with a general question, or with an individual question that has already been asked of this candidate.
#Ask an '''individual question''': pick the statement of the candidate you wish to pose the question to from [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements]], click the "Questions for the candidate" link, go to #Individual questions, and post the question there. Only this candidate will respond to that question.
Please keep questions succinct and relevant, and do make an effort to ensure you aren't overlapping a [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements/Questions/General|general question]] that has already been asked (<u>even if</u> the candidate hasn't yet copied it over to his or her individual question page), or an individual question that has already been asked of this candidate.
