This is a voters' guide about a single question pertaining to paid editing enforcement and a training program geared towards those paid to leave comments and votes, but lack wiki-syntax skills:
Affirmative:
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Worm_That_Turned/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, though concerned about potential corruption of the enforcement process
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Wugapodes/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, but outside ArbCom's scope, invited me to continue the discussion, which I did at User_talk:Wugapodes#Paid_voting_/_commenting_plan
Negative:
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Donald_Albury/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover on the basis of ArbCom purview, and potential corruption of the enforcement process
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Cabayi/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, potential corruption of the enforcement process
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Izno/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, outside ArbCom's scope, waste of donor cash
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Opabinia_regalis/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, outside ArbCom's scope, unlikely to be successful or supported, needs evidence pertaining to the extent of the problem
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Beeblebrox/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, Uncertain about the extent of the problem, not a huge supporter of paying
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Guerillero/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, suggested that evidence be presented, noted that bounty program seems too easy to game
Neither:
Hard for me to make a judgement concerning sentiment:
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Thryduulf/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, contributed interesting thoughts about the proposal; why it would be a mistake to tie enforcement and training together
Both affirmative and negative to the proposal:
- Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Enterprisey/Questions#Question_from_Epiphyllumlover, enthusiastically supports efforts related to training editors from backgrounds in other languages, but sees a program for employers into Arbcom as ineffective towards accomplishing its goals. Instead would rather see closers spend more time to do a better job, this would help prevent vote-buying.
Thank you for thoughts and answers.
