Ronline

Hi! I'm candidating for the ArbCom because I believe in justice in Misplaced Pages and think I can bring about positive change as to the fairness of arbitration procedures. I have worked in mediation in the past (in real life), and also in various cases at both the English and Romanian Wikipedias. If I become an arbitrator, my most important consideration will be to look at both sides impartially and to guarantee that the rights of the accused are always upheld in the fairest way. I am a firm believed in dialogue, and I always aim to make sure that both sides understand very well what the dispute is about, since I believe that alienation and misunderstanding is the most significant and most dangerous root of conflict. It is only through true justice and transparency that we can bring about a better, more stable and more trustworthy Misplaced Pages community. Feel free to ask any questions on the questions page below. Thanks, Ronline ✉ 09:34, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

  32. Strong oppose. This wannabe arbiter doesn't even know a difference between blocking and banning. His first admin action was to block an editor with 50,000+ edits, without consulting more experienced admins, thus demonstrating complete ignorance of Misplaced Pages:Controversial blocks and provoking ongoing disruption of Misplaced Pages. --Ghirla | talk 22:41, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
