Dispute resolution is not an admin task
People keep seem to be forgeting this.
Thanks Geni. I was trying to think of a way to say that
It isn't, but being able to handle a dispute in an adult and reasonable manner certainly IS required. Most administrative tasks have a high potential to be controversial (e.g. deletion, blocking) and I don't want to appoint someone who won't be able to handle such situations.

I agree with this. I'd like to see someone who, if they have the inclination to jump into things likely to be controversial such as deletion or blocking, will handle it well. Evidence of good dispute resolution skills in other aspects of editing is a sign that misunderstandings regarding these things will be worked out reasonably.
