From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm Jayjg. I joined Wikipedia on June 15, 2004, was made an administrator on September 13, 2004, and in July of 2005 Jimmy Wales appointed me to the Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee. I'm a pretty active Wikipedia editor, having made over 30,000 edits.

I believe the Arbitration Committee is an unfortunate, but necessary, last step in Wikipedia's dispute resolution process. In the past I've felt and raised concerns about the effectiveness of all of the formal dispute resolution mechanisms (including mediation, RfC, and RfAr). RfAr in particular has suffered from slowness (mostly related, I believe, to having far too many inactive members), and from decisions that tended to be too narrow to be effective (e.g. prescribing remedies on one specific article, when the issue is an editor's behaviour in general). I think it's important for Arbitrators to keep in mind that our primary and ultimate goal here is to create a great encyclopedia.

I have found the Arbitration process itself quite interesting, but extremely time consuming; reading through the evidence on a single case can take many hours. I've been actively involved in almost all cases started after my appointment to the committee; in addition to regular involvement in votes on whether to accept or reject case, and regular contributions to the Arbitration Committee mail-list, I've also worked on the Skyring, Alfrem, Gabrielsimon, Ed Poor, AI, Coolcat, Davenbelle and Stereotek, Rktect, Rainbowwarrior1977, DotSix, Keetowah, Onefortyone, BigDaddy777, Everyking 3, Regarding The Bogdanov Affair, jguk 2, Louis Epstein, REX, Polygamy, Stevertigo, Lightbringer, Maoririder, Rex071404 4, Silverback, and Ultramarine cases. In the future I'd like to get even more involved in trying to build the workshop pages, which is where the decisions are crafted by the arbitrators, the involved parties, and any other member of the community who wants to make suggestions.

Being involved in controversy is his badge of honour, as many admins, myself not excluded, shirk away from the deafening sounds of axes being ground. As an administrator he has been exemplary.

  94. Strong Oppose, Jayjg, a representative of Likud, employ dubious tactics to have (his) articles stay biased. The candidate has argued that Israel doesn't occupy any territories even though almost all entities, including the Bush administration and the Supreme Court of Israel, says that it does. What makes him a bigger problem than other editors who let their personal bias influence their editing is that Jayjg's bias is professional. I've tried to argue why hasbara is detrimental to the State of Israel but it is an uphill struggle. With lots of money changing hands I'm afraid that Jimbo will (once again) appoint Jayjg to the committee, no matter how the votes has been cast. -- saxet 18:02, 21 January 2006 (UTC) reply
    From this we can only infer that your opposition is due to the fact that you disagree with Jayjg? From what I have seen, Jayjg scrupulously applies encyclopedic standards when he gets involved in edit disputes, makes sure to recuse himself from any issues where he might have a personal interest in the outcome, and has been unafraid to overrule those he would otherwise agree with when they breach policy, rules, and guidelines. -- Leifern 17:19, 22 January 2006 (UTC) reply
