2019 Arbitration Committee Elections

Status as of 19:02 (UTC), Thursday, 9 January 2025 (Purge)

  • Thank you for participating in the 2019 Arbitration Committee Elections. The certified results have been posted.
  • You are invited to leave feedback on the election process.

During the 2012 Arbitration Committee Election Request for comment, it was decided by consensus that a three-member Electoral Commission would be created to address issues arising during the Arbitration Committee elections. This decision was reaffirmed in subsequent years and the existence of the Commission is now part of the standard procedure for the annual elections. The Electoral Commission is reconstituted each year for purposes of that year's election.

Editors wishing to volunteer as a Commissioner for 2019 should create a new subsection on this RfC. All editors are encouraged to comment on the suitability of the volunteers for this role. Three volunteers with the strongest support, determined by consensus based upon comments posted until one week after the close of nominations, will be chosen as Commissioners. Any remaining applicants who have consensus support but are not in the top three will be designated as reserve Commissioners, to be called upon if one of the Commissioners is unable to serve. If the consensus is not readily apparent, one or more bureaucrats will help close the discussion.

The mandate of the Electoral Commission is to deal with any unforeseen problems that may arise in the 2019 Arbitration Committee election process, and to adjudicate any disputes during the election.

In addition, while the Electoral Commission is not responsible for logistics of the election, the Commissioners should also help ensure that preparations for the election—such as setting up the relevant pages, posting notices of the election in the appropriate places, and asking the Office to configure the SecurePoll voting interface—move forward in a timely fashion.

Commissioners and reserve members are not eligible for election to the Arbitration Committee during this year's election. Commissioners must be able and willing to satisfy the requirements of the access to nonpublic information policy.

Per the consensus developed in previous requests for comment, the electoral commission timetable is as follows:

  • Nominations: Saturday 00:00, 5 October – Friday 23:59, 11 October (7 days)
  • Evaluation period: Saturday 00:00, 12 October – Friday 23:59, 18 October (7 days)
  • Commission selection: completed by Friday 00:00, 25 October

To nominate yourself, simply copy the following format and paste it with your statement at the bottom of the section. Your username will be filled in automatically.

I have been an active editor for a little over six years, and an administrator for just over three. I have held Oversight permissions since late 2018. I have done a fair amount of content work, some of it in difficult areas. I have had to navigate a number of complicated and unpleasant discussions as an administrator and as an editor; I think I can deal fairly with any conflicts that arise during the election process. As an oversighter I already meet the criteria for access to non-public data. I do not plan on running for ARBCOM in this election. I am putting myself forward not because I expect to particularly enjoy this task; I do not; but someone needs to. If four or more administrators whose judgement I trust nominate themselves, I intend to withdraw from consideration. Regards, Vanamonde (Talk) 02:25, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Comments about Vanamonde93

  • My interactions with Vanamonde in their role as an oversighter have given me great faith in their ability to handle and resolve complex disputes. Vanamonde has shown a great ability to apply the spirit of our policies to make sure that strict adherence to rules does not constrain our ability to make informed decisions as a community. In facilitating the election, I believe these qualities would be put to great use to both resolve and prevent problems in the coming months. Wug·a·po·des​ 04:22, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
  • Very tough; very fair. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:01, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
  • Most strongest OPPOSE possible, I can't comment more since people will harass me, and admins block me, as they do, but this is one of the worse slates of candidates I've seen in years. Sir Joseph 01:57, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi everyone. I’ll keep it short and sweet. As a member of the commission last year, I’m offering to serve again. I have learned a lot since I served last year and, naturally, I also meet the requirements for access to non-public data. I have no intentions of ever running for ArbCom, and though some minor mistakes were made last year, I’m willing to learn from them and do it better the next go around, if the community will have me.—CYBERPOWER (Message) 06:45, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi all, I’m Tony. For those who don’t know me, I’m currently a sysop, CheckUser and Oversighter. I’m willing to help out this year as an election commissioner. I’m volunteering for the position because I strongly believe in the importance of a free and fair process to the election, and I am willing to help see that through if the community wants. I also have a fair amount of interaction with stewards, which I think would be useful if as scrutineers they run into any issues. I have no plan or desire to run for ArbCom, and I’ve already signed the NDA as a CU/OS. TonyBallioni (talk) 13:20, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
