Ryulong might be going to arbitration

[Alex]

It has long been my belief that the result of someone's RFA rarely resembles their ability as an admin. I have also long believed adminship is not really about trust, rather it's about whether that person would make Wikipedia better as an admin. The articles are what matter most, not people's petty standards or personal beef with other editors.

True story: This spring I started contributing to a forum for (US) income tax questions, run by one of the tax software companies. (Probably they're using web 2.0 to get volunteers to answer questions so they don't have to hire so many paid staff.) I was given enhanced access to the site after 3 days, just because I answered a lot of questions correctly. There was no political intrigue among the volunteers, just the desire to give good answers to people with problems (some of whom should not be allowed near sharp objects, much less the right to vote, but I digress). And the people asking the questions were mostly thankful. And when the SuperUsers goofed and gave wrong answers we corrected each other with professional courtesy. And no one complained about ethnic, religious, or cultural cabals trying to influence the answers. And at the end they sent me a 140 GB external hard drive as a thank you. I know where I'll be between Jan and April next year, and it doesn't begin with the letter "W".
