CaptainEek
The metaphorical ship which CaptainEek sails in to edit Wikipedia. It appears to be a perfect copy of the USS Chesapeake.

CaptainEek sails the high seas of Wikipedia, hunting for good prose and other booty – such as well sourced articles. Though they hold the title of Cap'n, they know how important it is to keep a ship...well ship shape and clean. Thus they serve as a mop wielding deck swabbie, as well as on the Y'aaarbitration Committee. They often come across the scourge of the seas: vandalism – yet they know they have nothing to fear when the compass of Wiki is in their hand. They try their best to keep out of edit wars, as ships react poorly to both gunfire and needless reversions. Like Ishmael they too hunt a white whale: the elusive WikiCup. When not at the wheel of Wikipedia they make port on the shores of the United States and spend time being a land-lubbing law student. The "Captain of the Eeks" think Wikipedia is one of the most spectacular human innovations (or at least that it's pretty darn cool). They strongly believe in the mission "to create a free encyclopedia, in a variety of languages, presenting the sum of all human knowledge."

"Without civility, our lives would be as shaky as...as a Jimbo on a roof!" – Civility, the opening song to the Wiki version of Fiddler on the Roof. Which is by far my favorite play.

Wikipedia's processes have been frequently described as Kafkaesque. But having worked in the American legal system, I can guarantee you that by comparison Wikipedia is the paragon of efficiency and virtue. If you think ArbCom is Kafkaesque or inscrutable, I pray that you never have to go through an appellate procedure in an American court.
