Wikinews:Arbitration Committee/Elections July 2008/Nzgabriel Questions

  • Question from Anonymous101: You have often gone periods of one month without editing. Will you have time to deal with the long, complex arbitration cases that could (but will hopefully not) occur? Anonymous101 (talk) 11:05, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I will have time. The reason for absence of editing is not for lack of interest or not enough time available but because I am trying to get interviews for Wikinews (and interviews for my school website) and that takes time. --Nzgabriel | Talk 11:16, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question from GW_Simulations: There has recently been some controversy on the English Wikipedia about the extent of ArbCom's power and influence. Do you feel that it is ever ArbCom's place to dictate policies, even against community consensus, or just to make rulings on individual cases, on a case-by-case basis? I am asking this question to all candidates --GW_SimulationsUser Page | Talk 11:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't think it is appropirate for the ArbCom to dictate policies, especially not so if there is a clear community consensus for a certain direction to be taken. Hope this answers your question enough. --Nzgabriel | Talk 11:16, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
