or has been adduced by others. So much has been written…My word count excludes bytes from diffs. As others have written, BHG gets high-handed and impatient in discussions. She tends to go to rough language too quickly. A huge knowledge of wiki policies and immense amount of wiki-experience makes her erasable with those with less experience. This is not a licence to be uncivil. Discussions in other forums to curb her incivility have largely failed because the community is afraid of losing such a prolific, and generally constructive, editor. All these undoubted skills have tended to produce an unhealthy level of pride in BHG, a pride that will brook no criticism. The pride, when struck, very quickly resorts to abuse. Her underlying assumption seems to be that since she is (always) right, then any comment to the contrary must be the result of incompetence, a desire to insult her or part of an elaborate conspiracy to undermine her. As a result, we see a lack of assumption of good faith (AGF), theories about teams out to get her and wiki-disciplinary threats. This is not good for me nor for the project since no new editor in CFD space would wish to enter such a hostile environment. At no point is there evidence of introspection or acknowledgement of hurt caused by this incivility; in the absence of a <a href="/wiki/Mea_culpa" title="Mea culpa">mea culpa</a>, let alone contrition, no voluntary change in behaviour can be expected. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Wiki-disciplinary-related_threats" data-mw-thread-id="h-Wiki-disciplinary-related_threats-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Wiki-disciplinary-related_threats-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"></span>Wiki-disciplinary-related threats<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Wiki-disciplinary-related_threats-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"></span></h3></div> <ul><li>"If that guideline-flouting is upheld, then a DRV is the appropriate venue to review that."<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162411815">[63]</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Lack_of_AGF" data-mw-thread-id="h-Lack_of_AGF-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Lack_of_AGF-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"></span>Lack of AGF<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Lack_of_AGF-Evidence_presented_by_Laurel_Lodged"></span></h3></div> <ul><li>"…yet another blatantly bad faith nomination by a highly-experienced editor w[sic] persistently refuses to apply te[sic] actual guideline <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SUBCAT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SUBCAT">WP:SUBCAT</a>, and who is par[sic] of a tag team.."<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ACategories_for_discussion%2FLog%2F2023_June_24&amp;diff=1162524231&amp;oldid=1162519850">[64]</a></li> <li>"…when editors tag-team to abuse the CFD process…"<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ACategories_for_discussion%2FLog%2F2023_June_24&amp;diff=1162632284&amp;oldid=1162611536">[65]</a></li> <li>"There has been a systematic efforts by a tag team (in which Oculi is one of the two main players) to radically misrepresent <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SMALLCAT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SMALLCAT">WP:SMALLCAT</a>…"<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162646298">[66]</a></li> <li>"…a bad faith nom targeting one editor…" and "…supported by a tag team."<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162485021">[67]</a></li> <li>"..you flagrantly disregard...” and “…your decision to misrepresent the guideline…"<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162478406">[68]</a></li> <li>"…it is extremely disruptive to misrepresent <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SMALLCAT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SMALLCAT">WP:SMALLCAT</a> and to abuse it as a weapon to demolish categorisation"<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162392897">[69]</a></li> <li>"… a malicious nomination by a nominator wo[sic] has wholly disregarded the actual wording of WP:SMALLCAT, ignoring bot[sic] the "no potential for growth" headline and the "existing series" clause"<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&amp;oldid=1162388733">[70]</a></li> <li>"…as a demonstration of LL's bad faith, LL made no response to the expansion of the categories…" That one is actually true – I made no reply.

<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;oldid=89646797">[83]</a></li></ul> <ul><li>In December 2006, Radiant! added the section "No potential for growth" to Wikipedia:Overcategorization - <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=next&amp;oldid=95720486">[84]</a></li></ul> <p>As can be seen, originally, "No potential for growth" was the title. The title did not use the word "small", until I added it several edits later: <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=next&amp;oldid=95879690">[85]</a>. </p> <ul><li>In August 2007, Radiant! changed the words "two or three" to "a handful" - <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=next&amp;oldid=151450715">[86]</a></li></ul> <ul><li>Then "a handful" changed to "a few" (by me), in the next edit - <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=next&amp;oldid=151580830">[87]</a></li></ul> <p>There were many reasons to change from a set number. For one thing, it had become divisive. Things were getting nominated due to numbers alone, without actually looking to see if it was part of an overall system. (And had also begun to be set for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Speedy" title="Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy">Speedy Deletion</a>.) As can be seen, "Songs by artist" had really become contentious over this. For example, <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=95756125">this</a> was the edit right after Radiant! initially added the section. Which was then re-written in the next edit <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=95765092">here</a>. </p><p>Another reason is semi-related - <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:GAMING" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:GAMING">gaming the system</a>. If you set a finite amount, then: <i>"anything over that amount should be an automatic Keep, right?"</i> Or so went the argument. It also was leading to category "stuffing". As it's not that difficult to find anything anywhere that could maybe fit under a category, just to prevent its deletion. </p><p>So an indeterminate amount, handled on a case-by-case basis at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CFD" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CFD">WP:CFD</a>, was seen to be better. </p><p>That said, there have always been those who want a set amount, because they have the seeming idealistic hope that it would reduce discussions at CfD, or that it might dissuade category creators from making small categories.

I guess one can dispute whether this counts as a "productive disagreement" given that it ended in another editor's indef, but it seemed worth highlighting. <span class="nowrap"> <span style="font-family:courier">-- <a href="/wiki/User:Tamzin" title="User:Tamzin"><span style="color:#E6007A">Tamzin</span></a></span><sup>[<i><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Tamzin" title="User talk:Tamzin"><span style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</span></a></i>]</sup> (she|they|xe)</span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/SmallCat_dispute/Evidence#c-Tamzin-20230725045600-BrownHairedGirl_avoided_incivility_in_a_difficult_dispute_with_Timfoley50" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:56, 25 July 2023 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Tamzin-20230725045600-BrownHairedGirl_avoided_incivility_in_a_difficult_dispute_with_Timfoley50"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230725045600","author":"Tamzin","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Tamzin-20230725045600-BrownHairedGirl_avoided_incivility_in_a_difficult_dispute_with_Timfoley50","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Tamzin-20230725045600-BrownHairedGirl_avoided_incivility_in_a_difficult_dispute_with_Timfoley50"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONDESKTOP__{&quot;headingLevel&quot;:2,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;h-Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;heading&quot;,&quot;level&quot;:0,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;,&quot;replies&quot;:[&quot;h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;],&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Evidence Presented by Robert McClenon&quot;,&quot;linkableTitle&quot;:&quot;Evidence Presented by Robert McClenon&quot;}--><h2 id="Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon" data-mw-thread-id="h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"></span>Evidence Presented by Robert McClenon<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"></span></h2><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Robert_McClenon-20230725063000","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000","replies":["h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"]}}--><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><!--__DTLATESTCOMMENTTHREAD__{"id":"c-Barkeep49-20230727170000-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious","timestamp":"20230727170000"}__--><!--__DTCOMMENTCOUNT__2__--><!--__DTAUTHORCOUNT__2__--></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONMOBILE__{&quot;headingLevel&quot;:2,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;h-Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;heading&quot;,&quot;level&quot;:0,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;h-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;,&quot;replies&quot;:[&quot;h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000&quot;],&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Evidence Presented by Robert McClenon&quot;,&quot;linkableTitle&quot;:&quot;Evidence Presented by Robert McClenon&quot;}--></div></div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Deletion_discussions_are_contentious" data-mw-thread-id="h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"></span>Deletion discussions are contentious<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious-Evidence_Presented_by_Robert_McClenon-20230725063000"></span></h3></div> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Barkeep49-20230727170000-Deletion_discussions_are_contentious"></span><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1256386598"> <div style="margin-left:0"> <table class="mw-collapsible mw-archivedtalk mw-collapsed" style="color:inherit;

I would note as someone who has created many categories here and on Commons (and created <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Category_inclusion_criteria" class="extiw" title="commons:Commons:Category inclusion criteria">Commons:Commons:Category inclusion criteria</a>) but I would point out that at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2020_July_17" title="Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 July 17">Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2020 July 17</a> where BHD raised SMALLCAT a number of times yet <a href="/wiki/Mudgeeraba,_Queensland" title="Mudgeeraba, Queensland">Mudgeeraba, Queensland</a> has a population of 13,624. Topic categories for settlements probably don't fall under the letter (or even spirit) of SMALLCAT. A place with a population of 13,624 is likely to have several things like buildings, media or similar which could be created for things within the boundaries of the place even if such articles haven't been written yet. The wording "Avoid categories that, by their very definition, will <b>never</b> have more than a few members" and "Note also that this criterion does not preclude all small categories; a category which does have realistic potential for growth, such as a category for holders of a notable political office, may be kept even if only a small number of its articles actually exist at the present time." does say categories that can be expanded are acceptable. </p><p>A category for "Churches in X" when X is a village or small town with only 1 or 2 churches would IMO pass being deleted under SMALLCAT as unless in the unusual situation lots of new churches were built in X such a category would have no reasonable prospect for growth but a topic category for a village even a small one wouldn't at least pass the letter of SMALLCAT. </p><p>While I wouldn't be as reluctant to delete small categories as the letter of SMALLCAT says I would point out that BHG's interpretation of SMALLCAT does seem to be far stricter than it actually is even allowing some leeway. My personal view would normally be to wait until there are enough articles for a category and then create but the wording does seem clear enough that there is no requirement to wait as long as such articles can be written. </p><p>There was discussion at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_June_18#Category:Langley_Park,_County_Durham" title="Wikipedia:Categories for

BHG commented 25 times at ANI, 19 times at the DRV, and another <i>41</i> times at <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)/Archive_69#Community_discussion_regarding_the_Signpost">this thread</a> at VPM. The VPM thread in particular speaks for itself and I encourage the committee to examine her comments there; there's far too many for me to just list them in my evidence here. What I will say is they overwhelmingly show a battleground mentality and a complete and total unwillingness to understand or acknowledge that community consensus was strongly against her position, doubling, tripling, quadrupling down in the face of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:1AM" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:1AM">overwhelming opposition</a>. BHG has shown zero remorse for her actions, stating "For the record, I stand by my judgement on this matter." at ANI.

I don't know her as a person but believe we have some things in common: long-established editors, female, from east of the Atlantic, and (probably) well above the much-cited average age of Wikipedians, and with a passion for accuracy, grammatical English, and connecting the encyclopedia - categories, redirects, dab pages etc. Because she edits vast numbers of pages in her major, useful, projects, she crops up on a lot of people's watchlists and, sadly, irritates some of those editors, leading to interactions which can escalate unconstructively. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Smallcat_appears_to_be_being_misinterpreted" data-mw-thread-id="h-Smallcat_appears_to_be_being_misinterpreted-Evidence_presented_by_PamD-20230802144900"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Smallcat_appears_to_be_being_misinterpreted-Evidence_presented_by_PamD-20230802144900"></span>Smallcat appears to be being misinterpreted<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Smallcat_appears_to_be_being_misinterpreted-Evidence_presented_by_PamD-20230802144900"></span></h3></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SMALLCAT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SMALLCAT"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-PamD-20230802144900-Smallcat_appears_to_be_being_misinterpreted"></span>WP:SMALLCAT</a> previously redirected to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Overcategorization#Small_with_no_potential_for_growth" title="Wikipedia:Overcategorization">Wikipedia:Overcategorization#Small with no potential for growth</a>, and this section was <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Overcategorization/Small_with_no_potential_for_growth&amp;oldid=1165738485">split</a> on 17 July 2023 to form <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Overcategorization/Small_with_no_potential_for_growth" title="Wikipedia:Overcategorization/Small with no potential for growth">Wikipedia:Overcategorization/Small with no potential for growth</a>.

Clearly, this is not a category which "<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1248585704"><q class="inline-quote-talk">will never have more than a few members</q>": it is open-ended, and we can assume that there will be future notable geneticists from Northern Ireland. It has "<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1248585704"><q class="inline-quote-talk">potential for growth</q>". </p><p>But even if, implausibly, the study of genetics in the country had ceased so that the group was not going to expand, it is part of a large accepted sub-categorization scheme: it sits alongside <a href="/wiki/Category:English_geneticists" title="Category:English geneticists">Category:English geneticists</a>, <a href="/wiki/Category:Scottish_geneticists" title="Category:Scottish geneticists">Category:Scottish geneticists</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Category:Welsh_geneticists" title="Category:Welsh geneticists">Category:Welsh geneticists</a> as child categories of <a href="/wiki/Category:British_geneticists" title="Category:British geneticists">Category:British geneticists</a>, itself a child of <a href="/wiki/Category:Geneticists_by_nationality" title="Category:Geneticists by nationality">Category:Geneticists by nationality</a>. </p><p>Thus SMALLCAT provides no basis on which to nominate this and similar categories for merging/deletion.
