::* I undertook my first full mediation case [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=7699481&oldid=7690988] and presented my first substantial arbcom evidence [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Netoholic/Evidence&oldid=16894762#Comments_by_FT2] in November 2004, my first full arbcom case in December 2004 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Ciz/Evidence#Evidence_presented_by_FT2], followed by involvement in another in January 2005, and a further two warriors later that year, with repeated experience since. Since 2004 and moreso since adminship, I've consistently managed difficult disputes, more virulent warriors, closure of heated or difficult AFDs, further arbcom cases, and problems needing exceptional insight and communication. Throughout, I've [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Giovanni33-John_Smith%27s/Workshop&diff=161533596&oldid=161501639 continued] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Allegations_of_apartheid/Proposed_decision&diff=156256656&oldid=155911107 participating] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Template/Evidence&diff=146314109&oldid=56876282 regularly] at arbcom.
::* In this arena, I've not only gained respect, but also been commended for some of the best decisions and dispute resolutions in the history of the project: - ''"possibly the wordiest, best thought through AFD close in the history of the project"'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&curid=5149102&diff=142790779&oldid=142790552], and ''"probably the most comprehensive and balanced dispute resolution I've ever read on Wikipedia"'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=169490808&oldid=169384729]. Even in heated disputes, I am routinely considered fair [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=168322502&oldid=168296862]... even by those I've ''declined'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=next&oldid=153438679], who initially disagreed [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=142619205&oldid=142335425][http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=154878808&oldid=154709494] -- and by more than one I've ''warned or blocked''.
::* Behind the scenes, I also do a lot of "second opinion" and escalation/resolution work, in-depth allegation/dispute checking, and drafting analyses and dispute summaries that gain respect even in tough cases [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_September_4&diff=prev&oldid=155892171]. I'm able to say 'no' and explain the reasons [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:FT2&diff=prev&oldid=168936582], non-provokable [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/FT2_2&diff=100945209&oldid=100874013], fair to difficult editors, and evidence-centered in presenting concerns about administrator and arbcom decisions when necessary [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/BJAODN/Workshop&oldid=153777301#Request_to_re-check_appropriateness]. I spot important privacy/security issues others might miss [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=166192103&oldid=prev], and reconsider my stance if needed [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Attachment_Therapy/Evidence&diff=144092692&oldid=144065882] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ATaxwoman&diff=101703229&oldid=101602603].
