Hope springs eternal. If you post here, please be kind to me and to others. Wikipedia is not a battleground for personal disputes. Any comments of that nature ought to be ignored. Jehochman ^Talk 02:41, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, for my part, I've found you a sensible and able administrator; I'm voting Support. Ravenswing 14:14, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know enough about Jehochman to give an opinion one way or the other. I would, however, like to say that I was impressed by the maturity and wisdom he and Wehwalt showed in sitting down together and hashing out a solution to the recent Die4Dixie incident on AN/I, and I think that speaks well for him.

Discussion of William S. Saturn's comment

User:Die4Dixie was community banned after making an anti-semitic slurs against myself and User:Slrubenstein. User:William S. Saturn has been tendentiously defending Die4Dixie.[1][2][3] The above comment appears to be retaliation on behalf of Die4Dixie. Jehochman ^Talk 20:04, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not. This is a mischaracterization. I did not "tendentiously" defend the above user. I simply expressed an opinion as others such as Wehwalt did, which greatly offended Jehochman. --William S. Saturn (talk) 21:12, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion of Themfromspace's comment

Thanks for the personal attack based on my profession. Lovely. Jehochman ^Talk 11:42, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should clarify. I found the angle of this public interview disturbing. You advocate Google delisting Wikipedia for SEO purposes. You also advocate using the community's trust to dispel valid concerns of COI editing. Noone should be on Wikipedia to inform others about their business. In a related matter, the wording of this close was highly improper. I don't think you can separate Wikipedia from your job, which is a must for an arb.
