ArbCom update
Candidates join, withdraw in face of uncertainty
Faced with growing uncertainty about the ArbCom elections process, Wikipedians both added their names into the candidate pool and withdrew their candidacy. This week, PZFUN (statement) and Tony Sidaway (statement) announced their candidacies, while Linuxbeak withdrew his candidacy, citing a lack of time and a desire to focus on article writing and editing.
