Hey guys,
Over at Massively.com, we've put together a great big community resource to help voters make their minds up. It's been linked on the EVE facebook and the EVE news on the main page: Massively's EVE Online CSM candidate roundup
The article begins by explaining the importance of the CSM and picking the right candidate in what I consider to be very clear terms. It then has a full listing of all 49 candidates in the running with a short paragraph on each of their goals in the CSM. Next to each candidate is their picture and links to their campaign pages, forum threads, interviews and videos. All the info on them is there all in one place so you don't have to hunt around for details. Candidates are divided into those that have participated in previous CSM editions, new candidates that are running campaigns and the few relatively unknown pilots that didn't make much of an effort to run a campaign.
This is intended to be a community resource for the voting season and I fully encourage you to point out any mistakes, additional information or relevant links (such as new interviews) you find. As long as you guys supply any new info that comes to light, I'll keep the article up to date as a comprehensive resource leading up to the voting's closing on May 19th. Feel free also to submit new information, links and corrections via this thread. If you know someone that isn't motivated to vote, doesn't know who to vote for or thinks the CSM is a waste of time, perhaps this article might change their mind.
Cheers :)

Read it: great summaries of the candidates, thanks for the 3rd party synopses, and for doing the research to compile all the links and such. Valuable resource for voting, and nice touch with encouraging ones to vote.

Anyone or anything that brings more exposure to the CSM process is a Good Thing(tm). :D

Thank you for you effort. It's quite nice summary.
But I would like to point out, that I'm not only about reforms in high/low security space. I'm also about making eve more harsh and fixing various stuff as I explained in my CSM topic.
By the way, here is an interview with me.

I saw the article.
It was good to see it posted in the headline news on the front page of this web site.
I did see a few issues...
The article heavily weights the CSM members that have served in past CSM. Past experience is a great bonus but the article also places them first. Information fatigue can set in by the time you get to the end of that list. People will naturally lean to the people with past experience and the placement of them fisrt in the article reinforces that. Not that I have a better organizational method to suggest.
Several of the people in the "new active campaigners" are not so new. They have been candidates in previous elections. Leading the article with the candidates that held a CSM seat previously and dropping past campaigner's in a "new" category is a bit dismissive.
Most of the information can be seen just by looking at the official candidate list. That being said the article distills the candidates positions rather then subjecting the reader/voter to information overload. I just wish CCP did not have a region named Genesis, the the original name I had for the "Incubator Systems". Labeling the concept "Genesis Systems" makes for a better name but, would conflict with the Genesis Region in game. It would be like making new content and using a name like Eve Gate, which is already prat of the game and the back story... who would do such a silly thing....
In any case thanks for the effort. Any exposure is good exposure and letting more people know about the CSM, and it's candidates, is a good thing. My CSM Election Announcement

Good work on them trying to cover everything but they focussed more on policies, which tended to run into each other. I'd have liked them to look at qualifications and other things that set candidate apart.

Nyphur: I would like to point out that the idea of fleet stacking penalties was just that--an idea, not something I necessarily plan to champion. Rather it is one of my goals if elected to focus on pvp balance related to blobs, ECM, and neutral remote repping. Wouldn't mind seeing your entry for me adjusted to reflect that more accurately.
The other goals are low sec improvements of an outlaw nature, UI fixes (especially related to streamlining cumbersome tasks), and better communications from CCP to players.
That said, you did a very nice job on presenting the candidates--not an easy task to summarize all that, I'm sure.
