`- |Wildthing61476 | rowspan=``2`` | Appears to be your classic ``outsider``. Such a candidate has these characteristics. Not an IRC regular. Promises they have ``read`` previous committee rulings (don't bother – they are incomprehensible, and appear silly, if you didn't watch the original trainwreck happen). Not much project space involvement. Usually, though not always, a bunch of FA stars or GA ticks. These candidates are decent people who are held back by a lack of intuitive understanding about committee processes and non-mainspace policy. They do well, though too many make the committee ineffective. This candidate presents themselves as more like such a candidate than they really are – only 16% of their edits are to the mainspace. But the way of thinking seems to be there. Their answers to the questions indicate this is a candidate with sense and practicality. |- |  |- |MarkBernstein | rowspan=``2`` | Crusader. Such candidates disrupt the project by distracting the committee from work more important than whatever their agenda happens to consist of. |- |  |- | Hawkeye7 | rowspan=``2`` | An editor who is plainly a decent human being and a sound contributor. But another crusader, and regrettably therefore not a seat well used. |- |  |- |Gamaliel | rowspan=``2`` | This candidate presents an interesting rallying call, and one that will tickle the passion of the more contemporary elements of today's community. (Anti-harassment is a topical issue on Wikipedia.) But I am skeptical of candidates with an agenda for reform. The committee is not a machine for reform. It is designed to reign in the worst excesses and disasters of the community, and succeeds in doing so – at best – inconsistently. Electing this candidate would probably not be disastrous. But it would not advance much, if anything. |- |  |- | Thryduulf | rowspan=``2`` | The first thing to be said is that if you are going to run in these elections, it is a poor show not to proof-read your statement. In any event, Thryduulf is an arbitrator who kept a low profile and demonstrated no sign of excessive burnout. He seems like a safe vote if you do not wish to gamble on a new candidate. |- | |}`
