|Q=Actively serving as an arbitrator takes quite a lot of time and energy. Given that you "do not particularly want to be on the Arbitration Committee", how do you plan to maintain the motivation to do so if you are elected?

===Question from Clayoquot===
#{{ACE Question
|Q=Last year, you closed [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Osmosis RfC]], a huge discussion that had involved 30 editors and seven proposed options. In a closure of a complex discussion, the closer often separates the many issues that the discussion had covered and says that on issue A there was consensus to do X, on issue B there was consensus to do Y, on issue C there was no consensus, etc. That would have been helpful because even if an RfC technically becomes moot when an editor self-reverts (as was the case here), an underlying dispute still needs to be resolved and 30 people have just spent several weeks trying to move towards resolution. Your [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Osmosis_RfC&diff=841849522&oldid=838566050 closure] said nothing about what level of consensus was reached about any issue.
::12 months later, the underlying dispute was still festering and I [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine&diff=prev&oldid=886700381 pinged you] to ask for a more detailed closure. You didn't respond. My take on this sequence of events is that you basically chose to put yourself in the role of dispute-resolver, but to ''not'' help to resolve anything. My question is: Did you think your actions in this RfC helped the community with its efforts to resolve a dispute, and if so why do you think they were helpful? |A=}}
