James F.

As one of the original members of the Arbitration Committee, helping to formulate and pursue the Arbitration Policy, I would like to think that my actions and decisions over the past year speak for themselves, but I will try to distil my thoughts about it:

Naturally, the duty of serving on the Committee is a great one, both to Jimbo for the responsibility delegated to us, and to the Community, in representing its beliefs. Over the years that I have held an account on Misplaced Pages, I have become very much attached to the community, and this focuses my mind when considering whether we can discard people like so much chaff.

I strongly believe that the Committee's real purpose is to prevent further damage to the project by taking measures as we see fit, not to mete out some form of 'justice' as punishment of those deemed to have done wrong. Where I have considered banning people, it is not because I think that they "deserve" it in some way, but more that I regretfully doubt that their continued presence is not damaging to the project. Of course, 'damage' is in the eye of the beholder, and so I hope that my decisions have reflected well the overall opinion of our Community.

With this in mind, I would like to ask if you think me a suitable candidate to continue to represent us all in this most vital task of protecting the project from ourselves in our attempts to enlighten the world.

Yours,

  12. Thanks, karmafist, for finding that diff. (I was going to search the history for it.) He accuses Jtkiefer of not using common sense for undoing a block, simply because that block was made by Jimbo. (Jimbo later unblocked the user after concluding all the bad stuff was a while in the past.) I would think common sense would lean the other way - towards assuming good faith on the part of that user, as most people who commented on AN/I believed. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 03:24, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

  29. Oppose The candidate statement and the answers to the questions are far too weak for my liking, especially given that he is an incumbent. --EMS | Talk 15:51, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
  30. Oppose. I liked the candidate statement but Haukur's links give a different picture. Rhion 18:15, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
  31. Oppose statement reflects increasingly autocratic viewpoint, needs to step back from arbcom for a while at least. CarbonCopy (talk) 20:01, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

  40. Oppose. Opinions on sysop abuse, and also the diffs above (penalizing people for disagreeing with ArbCom and snidely rejecting a wheel-warring case). —Simetrical (talk • contribs) 07:22, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
  41. Oppose -- I agree, new ideas needed. Not willing to deal with problem users in some cases. Very wishy washy.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidpdx (talk • contribs)

  43. Opppose per the diff provided above. One should not tolerate in any way admins using their power to revert each others' blocks and edits, a thing called "wheel warring". Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 01:36, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
  44. Oppose for reasons above and because he is part of a certain group of like-minded "elites" who act unliterally and with extreme bias. Extremely childish people who seek arbitrator power only as a power trip shouldn't have it. Nathan J. Yoder 17:29, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
  45. oppose for cause i am highly unsatisfied with the way the arbcom in general, including James F., has handled the Xed2 case, especially ignoring repeated questions and concerns from numerous disinterested members of the community at large.

  51. Strong oppose. Based on responses to questions (see the questions link in the statement section), seems to have strong political/religious opinions, and is fairly unwilling to recuse themselves, based on prior judgements. In addition, seems somewhat hypocritical by claiming that all sides should be investigated, but not actually doing so. Additionally too much a member of a clique. --Victim of signature fascism | help remove biblecruft 18:43, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
