The elections for the Arbitration Committee this year are IMHO about paid editing. This voters' guide lists my recommendations of candidates to support and those to oppose based on
- their willingness to enforce the the terms of use section on paid editing and their awareness of the problems caused by paid editing.
- their experience (good, bad, or mixed), but I don't feel that multiple years of experience in several areas are needed to be an arb.
So far, the candidates' answers to my question about paid editing have been very positive about enforcing the Terms of Use prohibition on undisclosed paid editing (in contrast to attitudes in previous elections). Thus I may subjectively consider the candidates' strength of commitment in stopping harmful paid editing and their experience more than I had planned.
