Mackensen

Hello there, I'm Mackensen. I've been here since August of 2003, and was made an admin a year later. My purpose in running for the Arbitration Committee is twofold: to serve the community and to push the notion of accountability and legitimacy with regards to the actions of administrators. Arbitration is a perhaps unfortunate yet clearly necessary final step in dispute resolution, because the community has vested such powers in the body. This entails a responsibility on the part of the Committee to act intelligently to uphold policy and to ensure that people can continue to make useful contributions to the encyclopedia. This also means holding administrators accountable if they shoot from the hip–this whole project will fall apart if people don't trust us.

  51. Support. Mackensen addressed my concerns in under 250 words. However, this is a good point to note the problem of spurious candidates. Free nomination has corrupted the voting element of this election: due to the time cost of becoming a truely informed elector given the high number of joke candidates. Popular nominations processes merely extend the madness over a longer period (and turn into popularity contests). Nomination by cooption (as seen in Bolshevik style parties) has flaws: mainly the inability to remove an entrenched elite. Free nomination against a set criteria for eligability is probably the best way forward. Given that Arbiters have some "power", forcing people through the unpowered stages of formal or informal mediation responsibility may be a good one. Quite simply: if a good candidate like Mackensen can be obscured by an electoral process like this, we ought to rethink our electoral process. Fifelfoo 00:05, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    Oppose. Candidate does not adequately address the nature of arbitration in their candidate statement. In ignorance: I must oppose. With so many candidates, the statement is the extent to which I can engage in becoming an informed voter. Any candidate so contemptuous of the demos as to make it difficult for me to become an informed voter: I must oppose, it bodes poorly for their capacity to take on social responsibility.
