Original announcement

Welcome, incoming Committee members! And brace yourselves, bumpy times and all! El_C 02:13, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to all the hardy volunteers! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:28, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Congrats to all of the unsuccessful candidates just as much as the appointed ones. Every single person achieved a level of support required for appointment. That's a pretty impressive showing. Sadly there were not enough seats to go around, but everyone who didn't make the cut this year should still be proud of the support they received. ~Swarm~ ^{sting} 05:00, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I believe every candidate got over 50% support which I don't think I've seen before. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:53, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

An embarrassment of riches! Levivich ^harass/_hound 08:23, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed! That was wonderful to see. I hope we'll see some of those same names next year. --BDD (talk) 19:14, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to publicly thank the outgoing arbs for their great work this year. This is a hard job but we had a great team this year. Beeblebrox (talk) 05:24, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Breathes in congrats to: the successful candidates, the unsuccessful candidates for running and surpassing 50%, the outgoing arbs, the electoral commission, the scrutineers, anyone who helped set up Securepoll, the question askers, the voters, anyone who participated in the ACE2020 RfC, and probably at least one worthy group I forgot!

Congratulations to all the new arbs. I'd also like to make special note of outgoing arb DGG who, for many of the years I'be been involved in the project, has been one of my guiding lights. On occasion, I've butted heads with him over issues of notability, but he's always been an exemplar of how to disagree without being disagreeable. David, I'm sure you don't remember, but the first time we met was at an edit-a-thon or some such on the Barnard College campus. Had to have been 10 years ago. Looking forward to many more years of working with you at AfC and elsewhere, once you've taken what I imagine is a much-needed breather to decompress from your arb duties. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:47, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulations to all the successful candidates. I didn’t meet the eligibility criteria to vote in this latest election so wasn’t able to support you directly, but wanted to wish you the best luck. WJBscribe (talk) 11:24, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
