As a ] and ] I've dealt with a large number of fairly nasty sock-users, taken more than my share of abusive admins to Arbcom, and stood up for a level field for all; we're here to write a reference work, which means that's the focus of this community. Content writing, and decisions about how to operate as a content writing community. |

I lean towards "community ownership". At a time when such processes were shrouded in secrecy, I pushed for communal input in the ''Checkuser/Oversight appointment process'', provided the ''first on-wiki analysis'' of Checkuser work, and a load of others. At Arbcom itself I fought hard for better process, a formal structure for proposals to be examined and voted on, and better collaboration/workflow. |

:* '']'' - policy wordings, manuals, process updates, all the things that can help and hinder us in improving the project. If I improve one process or process, a thousand editors benefit from it, streamline a poor wording and users will save time, stress and frustration in future. It's not trivial. |

I was a member of the 5 year strategy taskforce, in 2010 I was asked to visit and contribute at the Foundation's offices, and in 2011 I was invited onto the WMF Communications Committee. In 2012 I was active in the SOPA community decision, primarily co-ordinating and reviewing our messages, posts, and information flow, and heavily involved in reviewing the site's legal Terms of Use.
