#:No, I don't believe it is currently a judicial process, but that it should become more like one, with transparency and fairness, and evidence based decisions.

Apparently our culture here does not believe, the decisions are merely ad hoc, so we should attempt to live up to that belief. In a community this size, I don't see what the alternative is.

Silverback

Misplaced Pages does not need more rules, but it has become large enough, that it does need to be seen to enforce those that it has fairly, consistently and without prejudice. I am skilled at analyzing systems, arguments and evidence and at seeing both sides of issues. Too many people are taking disputes personally and not attempting to resolve issues in good faith and this culture is overburdening the arbcom. The arbcom can discourage this by making it clear that all allegations against any parties to a case will have allegations against them considered. This will discourage cases by those without clean hands. The arbcom also needs to clearly discuss the application of principles to the evidence in its decisions, instead of deciding cases on an ad hoc basis. Knowing how the evidence will be analyzed and the principles applied will establish new standards which should reduce frivolous cases.

Finally, I will give cases involving abuses of power by admins particular scrutiny, as admins should serve and not abuse the community, especially since admin powers should be viewed as a community trust, and not a status symbol.

Examples of my objective analysis of evidence: . My discussions on Talk:Global warming. My discussion of the Arver case .

An arbitrator needs to be able to face criticism head on, without running from or deleting it. If the criticism is without merit, the arbitration should be able to ignore it or respond to it. I pledge to take and respond to criticism on its merits, as I always have, whether elected to the arbcom or not.

  64. Oppose. Arbitration is not a judicial process, the candidate seems to believe otherwise, "application of principles to the evidence in its decisions, instead of deciding cases on an ad hoc basis". Fifelfoo 21:56, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
    No, I don't believe it is currently a judicial process, but that it should become more like one, with transparency and fairness, and evidence based decisions. Note that the comments of others treat the recent decision of the arbcom in my case, as if it were the result of a fair and reasoned judicial process, which it wasn't. Apparently our culture here does not believe, the decisions are merely ad hoc, so we should attempt to live up to that belief. In a community this size, I don't see what the alternative is. My arbcom case resulted from my objections to abuses of the system by User:172 and from a long run-in with a particularly territorial user on one article. Yes, I enjoy editing on controversial and contentious articles, but I attempt to bring reasoned balance to those issues.--Silverback 07:23, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
    I suggest that an administrator look into blocking Silverback for violating the spirit of his personal attack parole with his comments above. 172 07:36, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
    You are going to need an abusive administrator on this one, such as Stirling Newberry had . This was no personal attack, just a characterization of my arbcom case. Just because the arbcom ignored your abuses does not mean they didn't occur. Quit following me around.--Silverback 13:40, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
    I'll have no finding one. There is no even a category for rogue admins I'll tell them that I'm one of there own because I've protected global warming on the " the wrong version." In the meantime, given that the arbcom has a policy of ignoring my "abuses," I will consider appealing your case asking for tougher sanctions on your editing. Your current personal attack parole stemming from your conduct toward me does not seem to be working, given that you are still making disruptive charges of my "abuse." 172 07:24, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
    Perhaps you have forgotten that you also showed up to protect Intelligent Design without any formal solicitation under strange circumstances, and that you reprotected Global Warming while you were blocked abusing your admin powers. Review that evidence to refresh your memory.--Silverback 18:23, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

    I think you are confusing "something wrong" with mistakes. Mistakes happen, ignorance of the rules,lapses in judgement, etc, but "something wrong" is a matter of character, and it shows not just in behavior in the community, but in the content of articles. Repeatedly abusing the system to gain advantage over a long period of time is not a mistake. I also think you are confusing abusing the system with abusing people. I don't mind personal abuse, because I know my own character, but currently I am disadvantaged due to sanctions, and people can game that to hurt the community and the content of the articles.--Silverback 03:08, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
