G’Day!
My name is Craig Franklin, and I’m an Australian in my mid-20s. I have been editing since August 2004, and I passed RFA on my first attempt back in August of 2008. My activity here is a mixture of article editing and creation; I have contributed a number of DYKs and frequently engage in cleanup and polishing of new articles added by new editors. I am also a founding member of Wikimedia Australia, and have been involved in numerous outreach activities to museums and educational institutions on behalf of the chapter. I am also an OTRS volunteer and have dealt with a number of cases in that capacity.
I believe I am suited to the role of oversight due to my experience dealing with subjects that require discretion and an appreciation of real-world consequences that might ensue from things that happen on Wikipedia. This experience comes from working with OTRS, long experience as an admin, and from my real-world job, which often involves handling sensitive information. I have in the past made a number of requests for particular revisions to be oversighted, none of which have been turned down.
I’m available pretty much every evening via email, Skype, and sometimes on IRC as well. I’m committed to being as transparent and accountable as possible given the nature of the tools. I would primarily be available between 19:00 and 23:00 AEST (09:00 to 13:00 UTC), although I often find a way to get online at other times as well.
Thanks for reading, and best of luck to the other oversight candidates and the checkuser candidates as well! Lankiveil (speak to me) 00:44, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
