Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections January 2006/Candidate statements/Kylehamilton
If I am voted to Arbcom, i'll do everything in my power to speed things along. I am against banning users unless they are a repeat offender or have defaced a page. I belive that has a general rule of thumb we should not ban someone for a first offense unless its an extreme situation.
Questions from -Ril-
- Do you hold any strong political or religious opinions (e.g. concerning George Bush, Islam, or on which end you should break a boiled egg)? If so, would you recuse yourself from cases centred on these?
- How willing are you to contest the decisions of other arbitrators rather than just "go with the flow"?
- Do you view all requests to re-address cases, particularly requests made by those most penalised, as being automatically without merit?
- In the case against Yuber, it was decided by the arbitration committee that it is the duty of arbitrators to investigate, and rule on the behaviour of not only one party involved, but all of them. Do you support this decision?
