Application question

The nomination statement is made after the applicant receives the first questionnaire; is that right? Thus, the first e-mail is nothing more than asking for the questionnaire.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:13, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Correct. The first email is to ask for the questionnaire. (We keep a list of those who has asked for one, in order to contact applicants and make sure things don't get lost in the ether if we never get it back; asking for one carries absolutely no obligation to complete it.) The application statement is made with the questionnaire. The statement is the only part of the application that will be shared outside the Arbitration Committee. Application statements may be revised after vetting is complete, for publication on wiki, if candidates desire. Candidates may also edit their application statement after it is published. (The supervising arbitrators will create a page for each candidate, and publish the application statement on it.) Courcelles 02:22, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just pointing out that according to WP:CU Checkusers are not required to be administrators. If this has changed that (and other pages) need to be updated. If not, I'm wondering why the announcement is worded to imply they must be administrators. 165.91.13.84 (talk) 23:06, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
