# What is your stance on the affirmative action taxation of gay marriage in the crack-addicted aborted baby military occupying Eurasian prostitution embezzlement organized crime church tort schools, and how will this affect your ability to arbitrate as effectively and ineffectively as you can and cannot? -[[User:Silence|Silence]] 06:36, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

#:Well, naturally, I think we should see who can contribute more money to my campaign, gay crack-addicted aborted babies, or the Eurasian prostitution organised crime/schooling religious establishment. I think this will, unfortauntely, affect my ability to arbitrate extremely strongly. Namely it will increase it much, just as danger increases alertness. With the Eurasian tort threat always in my mind I will have my senses heightened to a level that I will become one with the cases I arbitrate and whir out verdicts like a mechanised verdict-rendering machine. Thus, I would be wary. Unscrupulous opponents of my campaign may try to destroy this Eurasian tort threat in order to sabotage my performance.

#'' How old are you and what do you do? (If student, please state what subjects you are studying.)'' --jguk

:I'm eighteen and I work for a real estate firm.

#'' How many hours a month do you think you will need to be a good Arbitrator and are you really willing to put in the time?'' --jguk

:I honestly don't think that if done right arbitration should really be an extremely time-consuming, extremely straining activity. It seems to me that if that's the case, something is being done wrong, something isn't being done effeciently, and something needs to be changed. I'm completely eager to change that, if it needs to be. And if not, then forget it. I think the answer to your question is "as long as it takes," whether it be four hours or ten hours or whatever it should eventually be, till the job gets done. If you rephrase the question in that way-- how much of the job am I willing to get done well? The answer is all of it, and then after that, that's it.

#'' If chosen, you will need to arbitrate on disputes arising from the creation or revision of articles. Experience of creating and revising articles yourself, particularly where it has involved collaboration, is very valuable in understanding the mindset of disputants who come to arbitration. With reference to your own edits in the main article namespace, please demonstrate why you think you have the right experience to be a good arbitrator.'' --jguk

:I'll elaborate on this presently. [[User:DG|D.]] [[User_talk:DG|G.]] 02:51, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
