Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements/Kirill Lokshin

Kirill Lokshin

I wasn't really intending to run this year, but seeing as we have fewer candidates than expected, I suppose I might as well throw my hat into the ring.

For those that don't know me, I served on the Arbitration Committee from January 2007 to July 2009, the last six months as the coordinating arbitrator. Outside of arbitration, I'm mostly active in the Military history WikiProject, where I am a coordinator emeritus, having served as the lead coordinator from 2006 to 2008.

Over the course of my tenure as an arbitrator, I participated heavily in nearly every aspect of the job, but my main efforts were directed towards the drafting of case decisions—of which I've written a rather large number—and towards the various organizational and procedural reforms I undertook as coordinating arbitrator. I believe that I can bring extensive experience, and a proven willingness to roll up my sleeves and do the needed grunt work, to the Committee; beyond that, I'll let my record speak for itself.
