Apparently some prefer that part of my withdrawal statement be hidden behind a wikilink,[1], so I guess I'll bend over backwards to appease them. For the nine open seats, I support (in no particular order) Callanecc, Drmies, GorillaWarfare, Kevin Gorman, Kirill Lokshin, Kudpung, NE Ent, Thryduulf, Rich Farmbrough, Kelapstick, LFaraone, Keilana, Casliber, and might consider supporting Gamaliel. These candidates (and some possible last-minute entrants) reassure me that we won't elect people unfit to be Arbitrators due to lack of an alternative, and I can thus (gladly) withdraw with some peace of mind.  · Salvidrim! ·

    @Salvidrim!: It seems unfair / unbalanced / whatever that one person gets to post his favourite candidates / voting guide on the main nomination page, as part of their withdrawal statement. Just state that you believe that there are enough worthwhile candidates now, without enumerating them here. Make your own voter guide if you want, but don't misuse your position on the nominations page for it please. Fram (talk) 3:59 am, Today (UTC−5)

    I'm sure it was entirely in good faith, but agree with Fram that this is not the place for the endorsement of candidates. -- Euryalus (talk) 4:04 am, Today (UTC−5)
    I've hidden the comments in the statement. Salvidrim! is welcome to create a voter guide and endorse the candidates there. Mike VTalk 5:10 am, Today (UTC−5)
