CLEANSTART RfA's Options

[Michaeldsuarez]

I don't have anything against Sven Manguard, but I noticed that he or she recently attempted to do what Fae did (i.e. using WP:CLEANSTART in order to not disclose a previous account):

As with Fae, Sven had an ArbCom member (Xeno) backing him or her:

I can confirm that [[User:Sven Manguard]] contacted the Arbitration Committee in 2010 to disclose his former username and advise of this [[Wikipedia:Clean start|clean start]]. –[[user:xeno|<font face="verdana" color="black">'''xeno'''</font>]][[user talk:xeno|<font color="black">^talk</font>]] 19:07, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

I can confirm that [[User:Sven Manguard]] contacted the Arbitration Committee in 2010 to disclose his former username and advise of this [[Wikipedia:Clean start|clean start]]. A record of this exists in our internal records, so any sitting arbitrator who cared to check could verify that the recommended disclosure has been made. –[[user:xeno|<font face="verdana" color="black">'''xeno'''</font>]][[user talk:xeno|<font color="black">^talk</font>]] 19:10, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

To the best of my knowledge, the candidate has appropriately complied with both the [[WP:SOCK]] and the related [[WP:CLEANSTART]] policies. –[[user:xeno|<font face="verdana" color="black">'''xeno'''</font>]][[user talk:xeno|<font color="black">^talk</font>]] 19:21, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

[[User:Sven Manguard]] contacted arbcom-l in 2010 and informed the entire committee of the clean start - a record of this disclosure exists in the committee's internal records for any sitting arbitrator to review. –[[user:xeno|<font face="verdana" color="black">'''xeno'''</font>]][[user talk:xeno|<font color="black">^talk</font>]] 19:27, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Also, this revision:

What is the "recent case" that Sven is referring to? If there's a "recent case" that caused users to change their attitudes concerning CLEANSTART sysops, then perhaps someone should capitalize on that change in attitude and propose that WP:CLEANSTART shouldn't apply to those attempting to become sysops.

ALL OF THEM ARE NARCISSISTS. Okay? Just a reminder.

As for "Sven Manguard"......he's a notorious Facebooker/patroller, obviously just on WP for personal social entertainment.

He popped up in September 2010 and promptly went gnoming using a bot. And a few days later,
went on vandalism patrol. Because he's obviously the second (third? fourth?) account of an
experienced patroller. He's playing the game.

Oh, and btw, this is in his userpage history:

"Asen" you are interfering with my actions to prevent Wikipedia's infringement of my patents. This writing shall serve notice for the record: You or Wikipedia or anyone ever writing here or involved with "Open Source" or "Free Software Movements" may make, sell or use my patent # 5,764,518 forever or I will sue you for treble damages on patent infringement. You may not use the infringing “Molecubes” for Wikipedia's commercial interests here and give Hod Lipson credit for it. Charles Michael Collins.

You could always ask Mr. Collins about "Sven Manguard".
Or maybe Hod Lipson.

I doubt they know him personally. Probably just angry at having this weird rant reverted.
