Applicants to become clerks, please list yourselves here. A *brief* summary (no more than 2 or 3 sentences) of your arbcom-related experiences might be helpful too - cases you participated in, or cleaned up evidence pages for. Raul654 16:06, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Clerks (accepted applications)

  • While I can honestly say I don't have anywhere close to the same experience as Phil when it comes to involvement in arbcom cases, I can also honestly state that I've tried my best to follow the operations of the arbcom. I think I have a decent (probably above average) grip on how it works, although I've only been a party to one arbcom case ever (the initial Everyking case). I've been helping out with the evidence and workshop pages on the latest cases on RFAR, and will continue to do so, regardless of whether I become a clerk.

  • I have been involved in around a dozen arbitration cases, and am well familiar with the process and ith what the arbitrators find useful and not in a case. I've also been doing basically the functions of the clerks for the past week and a half already, having provided evidence summaries on three cases and a proposed decision on one. Which is to say that I can work fast and hard too. Phil Sandifer 16:09, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
  • I've directly been involved only in a single arbitration case (a long while ago), although I do monitor the cases. I submitted my name for the advisory elections, with the primary complaint being my inexperiance, I think the clerk's office is "safe" enough to allow me to help there. The rest of my dispute resolution experiance is fairly low profile, feel free to ask.--Tznkai 17:47, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Clerk Candidates

  • I have no experience but I function best by learning on the job.I also see this as a chance to give back to Misplaced Pages and learn more about it. Geo.plrd 23:36, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Shell 02:23, 10 June 2006 (UTC) I've been party to two cases Shiloh and Monicasdude, so I've learned my way around. I also worked as an admin assistant for years so I know a bit about taking a supportive role.
  • I've presented evidence in a couple of cases so far, Internodeuser and DarrenRay/2006BC. I've got a decent amount of experience in wading through diffs and other material as someone casually involved in dispute resolution. I also like to think that I've got a good mind for detail, which ought to be helpful. --bainer (talk) 02:23, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
  • FT2 20:03, 8 July 2006 (UTC) I've taken three cases to Arbcom starting with Ciz 2005 as well as a further one by email to user:Mackensen ("very persuasive"). I spend a lot of time cleaning up and refactoring "messy" or controversial stuff, it's one of my hobbies here, refactoring messy articles into neatly structured form, rewriting useful intro summaries where needed, and so on. Refactoring work in the project namespace has included the stable formats of WP:ABOUT, WP:NPOV, WP:RFC intro and several others (diffs on user page). I'm still learning a lot of things, but this seems a corner which needs doing and would be muchly enjoyable. I'd be helping out elsewhere too, though.
  • Currently on the cabal, and would love to move on up to Mediation Committee and hopefully ArbCom. Thought that this is a position that would give me good experience. I also spend time looking at cases, just studying them. Viva La Vie Boheme!
  • I suspect this is the sort of position where if the arbitrators don't know you well enough to trust your name on sight, a lot of yackity yack isn't going to convince them. So here's my name. Thatcher131 (talk) 05:54, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

The application of Dschor has been removed. Why? --71.36.251.182 01:19, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Becuase he's indefinitely blocked for abusive sockpuppetry. See Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Pedophilia userbox wheel war#Dschor for the beginning, and then his block log for the conclusion. Snoutwood (talk) 01:40, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
