Given only one choice in this particular poll I threw the politics and self-interest out the window and went with Wehwalt since he seems like the guy that actually writes content unlike the rest of the "Professional Wiki Politicians" (PWPs - I realize most of the readership even here belongs to that category in some sense) on the list (don't know much else beside that about him).
Silly lad, you don't quite get it, do you?
PWPs or not, most people here aren't interested in electing "content makers" to Arbcom.
They want someone who will tear down the busted walls, and build something else.......
Yeah, I don't particularly care what most people, here or elsewhere, are interested in. I do see some (well, two) candidates who appear to be interested in busting down some walls and none that want to build something else. In some form or another they're part of the status quo (except the guy who showed up in May of this year I guess) and their interest in maintaining it will only get stronger if they get elected.
And how do you expect the "something else" to be any better if the people building it have no clue about what it's like to actually write an encyclopedia? The "something else" will still suck as much, just in a different way.
