v t e Arbitration Committee Election 2012 candidate: Timotheus Canens Candidate statement Questions for the candidate Discuss this candidate

T. Canens has 4,931 mainspace edits, which is 16% of his total edits. Last month he managed only six edits to an article, and just three the month before. The most edits that he has made to any article has been 47 to Liu_Yong_(Qing_Dynasty), which is still a stub. What does he spend his time on? Overwhelmingly, it appears - over 50% of edits - on various admin noticeboards. So he seems to have very little experience at all. The profile looks depressingly like Elen's, who started actively editing a few months earlier. Reading through Tim's RfA, there were a number of opposes on the basis of a limited main content edit record. One editor noted that he found it difficult to write anything at all . He subsequently made no effort whatsoever to remedy the situation. Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:21, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Timotheus Canens has been an admin since 2010 and his track outstanding even after going through his track and also all the guides including a few of which do not support him they have nothing against the candidate or nothing to oppose him for he is totally non controversial . He is a clerk at sockpuppet investigations and worked in arbitration enforcement and Deletion review and is experienced and has worked extensively in admin areas and is fully qualified to be an arb. He has more mainspace edits and has created 7 articles and has done more content creation than several other candidates who were arbs in the past .Personally would not consider this to a major factor in Arb election.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 05:32, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't characterize him as "non-controversial" given that he not too long ago threatened to abandon AE and get others to join him when the Arbs considered modifying one of his sanctions. You can look at the revision history of his user talk page to see where he had posted a big notice about it. The Arbs relented because of such threats.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 17:02, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
