If I have, it has been so fleeting as to have been insignificant. The first time I even interacted with him was to notify him of this clarification. This is a request for <b>clarification</b>, not an accusation of any sort. I have no idea <i>if</i> his edits are a violation of any restriction, I was <b>asking if they were</b>. If not, no harm no foul. As to my editing history, it is open for view by anybody, I have nothing to cover up or explain or answer for. I make mistakes, I own up to them every time they are pointed out, and everytime someone shows me to be mistaken, I apologize for my mistakes and thank the person for helping me understand better. I never claim to know anything about anything, least of all physics, of which my knowledge is pretty much zilch, which is why I am asking for clarification here. I know so little about physics that I needed to file this request for clarification for someone to clarify <b>if</b> Count Iblis was violating his sanction, not to actually accuse him thereof. --<a href="/wiki/User:Jayron32" title="User:Jayron32"><span style="color:#000099">Jayron</span></a><i><b><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jayron32" title="User talk:Jayron32"><span style="color:#009900">32</span></a></b></i> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T01:35:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:54, 23 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T01:35:00.000Z"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T01:35:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Jayron32-2011-01-24T02:26:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z"></span>@Xeno: Absolutely, and that's why I request a clarification in this case; the greater issue to me is the ambiguity regarding motion 4. Even if this wouldn't normally count as "advocacy" for the purpose of enforcing motion 4 (and as I have said once, I don't even have enough physics background to tell if is or is not anything close to Brews O'Hare's position. Seriously. I can't tell whether or not this is Brew's position, oblique to it, or 100% the opposite of it. I simply don't have enough physics or mathematics knowledge to make heads or tails of either person's position on the speed of light.) Motion 4 needs clarification regardless. The fact that motion 6 came into effect means, to me, that it is unclear if the advocacy stipulation was supposed to expire or not. If it actually <i>has</i> expired, then the second question becomes completely irrelevent, and frankly, I could care less at that point. So, if motion 4 has expired, then I couldn't give a shit what Count Iblis does. If motion 4 has not expired, the rest of the questions <i>then</i> become relevent. And then I would care. --<a href="/wiki/User:Jayron32" title="User:Jayron32"><span style="color:#000099">Jayron</span></a><i><b><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jayron32" title="User talk:Jayron32"><span style="color:#009900">32</span></a></b></i> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Jayron32-2011-01-24T02:26:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">02:26, 24 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Jayron32-2011-01-24T02:26:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Jayron32-2011-01-24T02:26:00.000Z-Jayron32-2011-01-23T23:54:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Statement_by_Count_Iblis" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Count_Iblis-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Count_Iblis-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Count Iblis<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Count_Iblis-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z"></span></h3></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Count_Iblis-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z-Statement_by_Count_Iblis"></span>Two remarks: </p><p><br> 1) The link on my userspace is the view supported by many theoretical physicists, which was completely the opposite of the view taken by Brews Ohare. Basically, I'm with <a href="/wiki/Michael_Duff" class="mw-disambig" title="Michael Duff">Michael Duff</a> on this issue (I've actually had private communication with him about this issue a long time ago). While I know that this view is a bit controversial, it is still a fully mathematically consistent view and any objections are thus of a purely metaphysical/philospical nature (therefore completely irrelevant as philosphy is not a real science). What I've done on my userpsace is given a derivation of the usual equations of relativity containing c starting from natural units. This is never done in textbooks, because it is awkward and it goes contrary to how beginning students think of dimensional quantities. What happens is that later on theoretical students learn that dimensional constants are just conversion factors and not fundamental at all, however, one then never revists the elementary stuff and does the derivations without invoking any dimensional constants (because it is waste of time). </p><p>To give a more familiar example, comapre e.g. <a href="/wiki/Partial_fractions" class="mw-redirect" title="Partial fractions">partial fractions</a>. When professional mathematicians or physicists have to do this, they usually use Laurent expansions, instead of the standard textbook techniques. When students learn this for the first time, they don't know anything about <a href="/wiki/Complex_analysis" title="Complex analysis">complex analysis</a>. When they later study that subject, they don't need to revisit <a href="/wiki/Partial_fractions" class="mw-redirect" title="Partial fractions">partial fractions</a>, as they already know how to do it, albeit it in the awkward way. </p><p>2) I have observed that Jayron often makes misleading comments on the Ref Desk about modern physics, e.g. on gravitons, Quantum Field Theory etc. I can tell from his answers that he bases his reasoning on popular books, not on real textbooks. I doubt he has ever worked through standard textbooks like <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Field-Theory-Claude-Itzykson/dp/0486445682">this</a> or <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.press.uchicago.edu/presssite/metadata.epl?mode=synopsis&bookkey=3616964">this one</a>, because his reasoning is easily debunked from what one can read in these books. Also, he argues a lot defending his personal views, e.g. on gravitons that go counter to the thinking in modern physics; the way he does it is misleading, as to lay persons it looks like he speaks from some authority. </p><p>Conclusion: Clearly Jayron is behaving a lot like Brews was perceived to behave. He is wrong about a lot of things on modern physics and pushes his views on the ref desk. He has now used this board while the disagreement seems to lie with a statement about the role of the speed of light which is a normal view held within theoretical physics (as opposed to the view held by Brews). Clearly he is unaware of the fact that it is a normal view held by many. He should have known that Brews's view is the complete opposite had he taken the time to check this out. Clearly he hasn't done that, so he is making a statement of a fact when he doesn't know what he is talking about. Presumably, all he has done is check that I was once (wrongly) restricted for "advocacy" and that Brews was topic banned, and then "concluded" that my view posted on my userspace is the same view held by Brews. </p><p><a href="/wiki/User:Count_Iblis" title="User:Count Iblis">Count Iblis</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Count_Iblis" title="User talk:Count Iblis">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Count_Iblis-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z-Statement_by_Count_Iblis" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:22, 23 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Count_Iblis-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z-Statement_by_Count_Iblis"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Count_Iblis-2011-01-23T15:22:00.000Z-Statement_by_Count_Iblis"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Comment_by_Biophys" data-mw-thread-id="h-Comment_by_Biophys-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Comment_by_Biophys-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z"></span>Comment by Biophys<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Comment_by_Biophys-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z"></span></h3></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Hodja_Nasreddin-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z-Comment_by_Biophys"></span>Count_Iblis is certainly entitled to keep wikipedia-related text in his userspace.<a href="/wiki/User:Hodja_Nasreddin" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Hodja Nasreddin">Biophys</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Hodja_Nasreddin" title="User talk:Hodja Nasreddin">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Hodja_Nasreddin-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z-Comment_by_Biophys" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:06, 24 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Hodja_Nasreddin-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z-Comment_by_Biophys"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Hodja_Nasreddin-2011-01-24T16:06:00.000Z-Comment_by_Biophys"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Statement_by_other_users" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_other_users-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T19:34:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_other_users-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T19:34:00.000Z"></span>Statement by other users<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_other_users-Request_for_clarification:_Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Speed_of_light_(F-2011-01-23T19:34:00.000Z"></span></h3></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Sailsbystars-2011-01-23T19:34:00.000Z-Statement_by_other_users"></span>Just looked through Count Iblis's user page on the speed of light. The math is a pretty standard deviation of classical Newtonian mechanics from relativity based on first principles. I'm not seeing any fringe advocacy here.

I was concerned about that from the beginning and wrote a section on "activism to advance fringe points of view."

He isn't asking for clarification, instead asking for "arbitrator comments". In other words, it looks like he's trying to pull some comments out of the arbitrators that he can use as weapons later to continue the battlefield behavior that he has exhibited since the close of the CC arbitration case. He has previously <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Cla68&limit=500&action=history">tried</a> to make what appears to be an attempt to draw <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ACla68&action=historysubmit&diff=392973516&oldid=392966540">me</a> and others back into a battle with him as the instigator. To be honest, I resent his attempts, whether intentional or not, to do so. I ask that the arbitrators not allow themselves to be drawn into whatever it is he's trying to do here, and let the rest of us get back to building an encyclopedia, of which some of us are actually <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ACla68&action=historysubmit&diff=408336147&oldid=405145342">trying to do</a>. <a href="/wiki/User:Cla68" title="User:Cla68">Cla68</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Cla68" title="User talk:Cla68">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Cla68-2011-01-18T22:38:00.000Z-Statement_by_Cla68" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:38, 18 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Cla68-2011-01-18T22:38:00.000Z-Statement_by_Cla68"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Cla68-2011-01-18T22:38:00.000Z-Statement_by_Cla68"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Cla68-2011-01-19T01:43:00.000Z-Cla68-2011-01-18T22:38:00.000Z"></span>Re: Count Iblis...a few (fortunately, very few) editors involved with the essay have tried to turn it into a battleground over the CC topic. Most of the participating editors (including me, IMHO) have refrained from being drawn into that type of behavior, which is appropriate since the essay is not a part of the CC topic area. Personally, I am disappointed to see those few editors try to turn the essay into a CC battleground, but they are responsible for their own actions.

For that reason, I am saddened that the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/Wikipedia:Activist" title="Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Activist">deletion discussion</a> did not come to a conclusion that a merge with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Advocacy" title="Wikipedia:Advocacy">Wikipedia:Advocacy</a>. The rationale is that the discussion can be applied to mainstream and fringe activists, rather than concentrating on the former, which I feel is unhelpful. That said, we don't have a policy on merging essays, and we have over a thousand of them apparently - what worries me is a "not seeing the forest for the trees" - <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Policies_and_guidelines#essay" title="Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines">Wikipedia:Policies_and_guidelines#essay</a> - doesn't have alot to say. If it were up to me, I think the essay as is is a little too close to home to the recent arbitration case, and hence does have battleground elements to it, yet I recognise others don't see it as such. I would hope that in general, there is more of an effort to merge similar essays into more solid essays, which would helpfully give them greater weight, readability and legitimacy, and that if this is not spontaneous, then maybe an RfC into essays and looking at how to streamline them is fruitful. I note there is a new Essays Wikiproject which might be agood place to log centralised discussion. <a href="/wiki/User:Casliber" title="User:Casliber">Casliber</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Casliber" title="User talk:Casliber">talk</a> <b>·</b> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Casliber" title="Special:Contributions/Casliber">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Casliber-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:01, 19 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Casliber-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Casliber-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-PhilKnight-2011-01-19T21:47:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"></span>At times in the essay, Cla68 may possibly allude to his role in the global warming articles dispute, but I don't consider that he has breeched the sanctions imposed on him.

I do not presently see a need for arbitrator intervention here, although I hope I will still be able to make that comment a few days from now.

My review of the recent edits shows that the worst behavior involved in the essay editing belonged to an editor who has since departed from Wikipedia for at least a year. The named Climate Change parties' edits, though inadvisable, do not appear to have risen to the level that AE would have been unavoidable. At the same time, had an uninvolved administrator sanctioned either one for their participation in the editing of this essay, I would not have objected. The clarification I would encourage all parties to take is this: finding proxy topics on which to snipe or snark at former opponents on topics from which one is currently banned is entirely against the spirit of such topic bans. <a href="/wiki/User:Jclemens" title="User:Jclemens">Jclemens</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jclemens" title="User talk:Jclemens">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Jclemens-2011-01-24T06:03:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">06:03, 24 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Jclemens-2011-01-24T06:03:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Jclemens-2011-01-24T06:03:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Risker-2011-02-02T05:55:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_3"></span>Concur with the comments of my colleagues.

<p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Piotrus-2011-01-18T22:53:00.000Z-Statement_by_Piotrus"></span>More than a year has passed since the original remedy was instituted, yet close to three months still remain on the topic ban. Since March I have edited uncontroversially, and in May I was allowed to make suggestions at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:POLAND" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia talk:POLAND">WT:POLAND</a>; neither have been subject to any criticism. In November the topic ban was narrowed to "articles about national, cultural, or ethnic disputes within Eastern Europe, their associated talk pages, and any process discussion about these topics". I tried my best to avoid approaching the rather blurry boundaries of that new ban (I raised concerns about it in the past several times). I will admit that despite my best intentions I have drifted a few times close to that blurry boundary. In all but one instance I self-reverted quickly. Sadly, battleground mentality in EE topics still persists among some, and this led to two AE requests naming me as a party - please note that both ended with no action taken towards my person, and the filling parties in both cases were subject to AE bans and/or blocks (<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive76#Piotrus" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive76">AE 1</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive76#Piotrus_2" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive76">AE 2</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive77#Arbitration_enforcement_action_appeal_by_Dojarca" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive77">related AE 3</a>). Finally, just a few days ago I was suddenly blocked by an AE admin, who in good faith misinterpreted the topic ban; I was unblocked a day later following the input from three Arbitrators (<a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&oldid=405484264#Arbitration_enforcement_action_appeal_by_Piotrus">appeal and relevant discussion here</a>). </p><p>What finally prompted me to file this request now was a single edit I did not make: I wanted to correct the placement of a reference template in the <a href="/wiki/Adam_Mickiewicz" title="Adam Mickiewicz">Adam Mickiewicz</a> article ({{Catholic|wstitle=Adam Mickiewicz}} should be in the reference section, not at the very bottom of the article). But moments before I was about to hit the save button, I realized that the article seems to be in the midst of an edit war related to the subject nationality, and by making an edit there - even one totally uncontroversial and unrelated to the dispute - I could be accused of violating the topic ban. This is not the first time I halted myself like that; one of the self-reverts I mentioned was <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Poland_Anti-Religious_Campaign_(1945%E2%80%931990)&diff=400939107&oldid=400936730">this edit to the article "Poland Anti-Religious Campaign (1945–1990)</a>, where I made an AutoEd/ce edit to a new article that popped up on the WikiProject Poland's new article report. This topic was never a subject to a dispute on Wikipedia (nor has it been since the article was created), but it does seem related to some dispute. And indeed, in the (dismissed) AE reports I mentioned, this edit of mine was part of the "evidence". Thus I am prevented from carrying out the copyedit of this article, moving it (the title needs to be decapitalized per MoS) and making other uncontroversial edits. After this last block-unblock incident, I am very wary of editing anything related to Eastern Europe at all (I was about to create a series of articles about <a href="/wiki/Polish_armoured_trains" class="mw-redirect" title="Polish armoured trains">Polish armoured trains</a>, a plan I now put on hold, as I don't want my block log to witness more admins who could misinterprets my topic ban as including <i>all military topics</i>...). Even if I do my best to adhere to the topic ban, I can still be harassed by battleground-minded editors; worse, even neutral, good-faithed admins have shown they have trouble interpreting the topic ban, and the result is a lot of wikistress and time wasted on AE. I have to admit that I feel more stressed under this topic ban then in many preceding months, as I am always afraid I will make a good-faithed edit that will be seen as topic ban gaming, or that even if I won't, I will be dragged to AE again for more stressful battleground showdowns (and even if such reports seem to serve a useful function of identifying disruptive, battleground-minded editors, I do not enjoy being the lightning rod of their attention - which, considering that I am now the last editor with an EEML-related remedy still in force, is unlikely to diminish). </p><p>Lastly, I'd like to note that the EEML case was not about creating improper content, but about improper edit (revert) coordination and (vote) canvassing. That lesson, about impropriety of such actions, was learned by me and others long ago (I admited as much during the very case). I would like to resume creating content and building an encyclopedia (the 2010, due to the topic ban, was the first year I wrote no Featured Article, my Good Article and DYK writing were also cut down to roughly one fifths of the levels of the previous years; <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/pcount/index.php?name=Piotrus&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia">here you can see how the remedy affected my activity levels</a>). </p><p>The topic ban will end in late March; I believe that I am as ready to resume constructive and uncontroversial editing in that area now as I will be in by then. In the past year, during discussions of subsequent amendments, the Committee members often spoke of the gradual return to the editing area. I hope that now, close to 13 months out of 15 in my remedies, we can finally put this behind us (I also selfishly hope that this request can be processed faster than the last one, which took <i>two months</i>). </p><p>New members of the committee may be interested in reading <a class="external text" href="https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&oldid=396519864#Statement_by_Piotrus">my statement</a> from the 21 September from the amendment request that led to the motion narrowing the topic ban. </p> <dl><dd>Comment to the points raised by involved editors:</dd> <dd>1) Upon my AE block by Mkativerata, <i>as declared on my talk page</i>, I sent an email to him asking for an explanation, providing my understanding of the situation and asking for an unblock. Assuming he may not be active at that time, and wishing to minimize any delays before the unblock (or AE unblock discussion), I send similar emails to several other AE administrators who commented, in a non-partisan fashion, on the recent AE requests involving my person (linked above). Being unable to post on AE for several days, I continued sending several emails to administrators discussing the situation there, clarifying certain things they asked for (or asking for clarifications myself). Obviously, I also contacted several members of the arbitration committee asking for their input (which was eventually provided, ending with an unblock, once the arbitrators have clarified the scope of the topic ban). I used emails because that was the only means available for me to contact other editors, and in doing so I followed advice offered to me by an Arbitrator some time ago (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Coren/Archives/2010/November#Thanks_.2B_question" title="User talk:Coren/Archives/2010/November">"if you end up being in the middle of an enforcement request, seek help from an arb to help clarify this"</a>). Nothing in those emails was secret, and if the Committee wants to see them, I authorize their recipients to share them with the Committee if it is requested from them (as I sent most of them through wiki interface I don't have their copies to provide). I resent second or third handed description of such emails as canvassing or dishonest, although I am not surprised as those personal attacks are coming from a user with a very long history of assuming (and expressing) bad faith when it comes to my person. I will end by asking Deacon to disclose who was it that send him this email? Or are we dealing with another "anonymous whistle-blower" who is afraid to express his concerns publicly?</dd> <dd>2) Echoing sentiments expressed by several editors here, and at least one Arbitrator, I will ask the Committee to consider whether this forum does indeed allow editors to express profound bad-faith comments and carry out personal attacks on others without any consequences. On AE, editors making unfounded, bad-faithed accusations and contributing to the battleground atmosphere in EE area received AE and interaction bans. I would specifically ask the Committee to consider imposing an interaction ban on Deacon with regards to EE(ML) editors (and frankly, if the Committee would like to make it a double sided restriction, that's fine - I never commented on Deacon outside of the situations he commented on my person, and my only desire is for him to stop wikistalking/hounding my activity). Please note that Deacon's bad-faithed criticism of my person is not a rare or exceptional occurence. His first edit this year upon coming from a nearly month long wikiholiday was to post here; last year he made comments in AE requests involving my person and occasionally other editors involved in the EE(ML) case (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=402057909">[9]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=401779009">[10]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=402074112">[11]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=402088589">[12]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=prev&oldid=402142599">[13]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:EdJohnston&diff=prev&oldid=402425642">[14]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:EdJohnston&diff=prev&oldid=402637180">[15]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=402225932">[16]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=364665755">[17]</a>) and in amendments (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&diff=prev&oldid=370893512">[18]</a>). Also, despite being obviously involved in this area, he takes administrative actions (ex. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement&diff=prev&oldid=402357715">[19]</a>). In the years past, Deacon has presented evidence against me and other EE-related editors (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Eastern_European_mailing_list/Evidence#Statement_by_Deacon_of_Pndapetzim">[20]</a>), been banned from EE-related arbitration pages due to incivility and battleground mentality (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=prev&oldid=323598221">[21]</a>), authored himself an entire arbcom case against me (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Piotrus_2&action=history">[22]</a>), and was mentioned in its findings (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Eastern_European_disputes#Deacon_of_Pndapetzim">[23]</a>), admonished (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Eastern_European_disputes#Deacon_of_Pndapetzim_admonished">[24]</a>) and reminded to <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Eastern_European_disputes#Editors_reminded">assume good faith, remain civil and avoid personal attacks,</a>. In April and in June 2009 I offered him a mediation (twice), he refused, twice (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=next&oldid=282279898">[25]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=next&oldid=294450386">[26]</a>) At that time I also specifically asked him to avoid commenting about me (and promised never to comment on him) - <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=prev&oldid=282642107">[27]</a>. As far as I can tell, he ignored this request of mine, not even replying to it. His "history" with EE-editors goes at as far back as 2006 (and on the subject of canvassing, here's <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AElnuko&diff=66092784&oldid=65244214">a skeleton in a closet</a>). Since it seems obvious that Deacon sees his <s>vigilantism</s> vigilance in this area as <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=408495723&oldid=408492144">helping the project</a>, and saving it from <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim&diff=408563644&oldid=408560893">"the EE editors"</a>, perhaps the Committee could take a closer look at whether his attitude and activities are really benefiting that area (and the project in general)?</dd> <dd>And now, can we please get back to the subject at hand (the topic ban), and try not to be distracted by some editors who are trying to derail this request by turning it into another battleground?

Skäpperöd has the right to voice concerns and criticism, but the line surely is crossed when one makes allegations regarding another editors goals in contributing, character and personality, and bad-faithed interpretation of professional expertise to boot (not far from <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OUTING" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OUTING">WP:OUTING</a>, I believe).</dd> <dd>Since an interaction ban was mentioned, I will also ask the Committee to consider whether this wouldn't be another good place for it. I respect Skäpperöd's content contributions, and have no desire to hinder them; however his constant critique of EE(ML) editors that shows no signs of lessening seems disruptive and conductive to recreating battleground mentality (if editors cannot <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FORGIVE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:FORGIVE">WP:FORGIVE</a> and move on, what can we expect in the near future? More drama, that's what).

In October last year he <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&diff=prev&oldid=389069400">proposed</a> an amendment indefinitely extending a topic ban of <a href="/wiki/User:Jacurek" title="User:Jacurek">User:Jacurek</a>, the proposal was quickly rejected by the Committee and Skäpperöd was warned to avoid battleground tone and mentality (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&oldid=390230880#Request_to_amend_prior_case:_EEML_.283.29">[28]</a>). That year he also <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=394623932">objected to lifting a sanction in an AN discussion</a>, <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=394751633">quickly launching another attack on a user who disagreed with him</a>.

I hope this proves the occurence of an unhealthy vigilantism clear here as well, and makes the case for an interaction ban. Once again, if the Committee wants to make it double sided, that would be fine (even through neither I nor to my knowledge anybody else has a history of following Skäpperöd around and criticizing him, damaging his reputation, and so on...). I do however strongly believe that as long as certain editors stay focused on flaming their opponents at every possible occasion, the EE conflicts won't dissipate. If some editors cannot learn to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FORGIVE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:FORGIVE">WP:FORGIVE</a> and move on, I am afraid they have to be directed towards the reconciliation path. Please note that there is nothing that the project will lose if such interaction restrictions are implemented; instead we will gain some peace and quiet from dramu accusations, battleground atmosphere will dissipate as flaming goes away, and certain editors will no longer have to waste time they could spend writing content on launching attacks on others (or defending from them). --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;"><a href="/wiki/User:Piotrus" title="User:Piotrus">Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus</a>|<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Piotrus" title="User talk:Piotrus"><span style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> talk </span></a></span></sub> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Piotrus-2011-01-20T05:14:00.000Z-Piotrus-2011-01-18T22:53:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:14, 20 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Piotrus-2011-01-20T05:14:00.000Z-Piotrus-2011-01-18T22:53:00.000Z"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Piotrus-2011-01-20T05:14:00.000Z-Piotrus-2011-01-18T22:53:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Piotrus-2011-01-20T18:37:00.000Z-Piotrus-2011-01-18T22:53:00.000Z"></span>Re: Novickas.

EE battlegrounds will not dissipate till editors apply <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FORGIVE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:FORGIVE">WP:FORGIVE</a> and stop giving others a reason to think "this guy tried to get me at AN(I)/AE/ARBCOM/etc. and now I have to get back at him, or at least show everybody else how evil he is." Each time editor A criticizes editor B, it becomes that much harder for editor B to keep assuming good faith about editor A. On the other hand, each time editor A stays quiet, avoiding criticizing former opponents, the axe becomes buried deeper, not to mention the times where editors A and B compliment each other or collaborate (and on that lines, I am happy to publicly state that I respect your content contributions and activity in copyright project, I wish you to be more active, and have no wish to see you restricted, even criticized, in any shape or form).

I'm not sure how an <i>article</i> can be the <i>subject</i> of a ethnic, national, etc. dispute. It can only be the subject of an <i>editing dispute</i> that may or may not be borne out of national, ethnic or cultural differences between the editors involved. The term "present-day dispute" might also be overly narrow: surely Arbcom wants to capture battleground venues like <a href="/wiki/Mass_killings_under_Communist_regimes" class="mw-redirect" title="Mass killings under Communist regimes">Mass killings under Communist regimes</a>: those articles are about <i>past</i> ethnic or national disputes in relation to which there are severe <i>present</i> academic and editing disputes.

I find this quite unacceptable. I think Piotrus would also do well not to make the kind of posts he made to NYB, Shell and Kirill's user talk pages after he was unblocked.

My points were that I wouldn't have found it hard to stay well inside the newer topic ban restriction; that the <a href="/wiki/Adam_Mickiewicz" title="Adam Mickiewicz">Adam Mickiewicz</a> article falls well inside the line and that describing his hypothetical minor edit to that article as a last-moment realization that he was about to edit an ethnic dispute article was misleading; that he remains free to bring up proposed-but possibly-problematic edits at the PL noticeboard; and that the various recent AE reports were not beneficial to the community at large. I objected to his statement above "...such reports seem to serve a useful function of identifying disruptive, battleground-minded editors...". and suggested finding a mentor. </p><p>He responds by saying that I cannot put myself in his shoes when I say it wouldn't be hard, since I don't contribute as much as he does; that the admins who evaluated the various topic ban AE reports disagreed among themselves, showing that observing the boundary is indeed difficult; and that he would avoid all EE topics instead (presumably if this motion doesn't pass.) He asked for a specific suggestion as to how to rewrite the Adam M. part of this appeal - I haven't got one - and acknowledged he knew this article was the subject of an ethnic dispute. </p><p>I would prefer that the topic ban be carefully re-worded rather than lifted. Accompanied by a call for mentor volunteers - maybe mentor isn't quite the right term; just someone he could talk to when he feels a strong inclination to edit these articles. Or he could post them to my talk page, I wouldn't file an AE report. But as things have worked out some of his ventures have resulted in what I consider wikilawyering on his part.

When three or four admins have one interpretation of what an ArbCom decision means, and the Arbitrators themselves have another interpretation of their words, the wording of the remedy must be considered to be suboptimal. AE matters are, if not the hardest, one of the toughest admin chores we have to do, and this wording makes it just that much harder. Mean what you say- a paragraph of clear restrictions is both easier to follow and easier to enforce than the ambiguous sentence we now have. <a href="/wiki/User:Courcelles" title="User:Courcelles">Courcelles</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Courcelles-2011-01-11T05:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_Courcelles" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:24, 11 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Courcelles-2011-01-11T05:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_Courcelles"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Courcelles-2011-01-11T05:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_Courcelles"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek-Amendment_1-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek-Amendment_1-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Volunteer Marek<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek-Amendment_1-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek"></span>I am essentially going to echo the sentiments of the AE admins above. The present situation only invites frivolous AE requests and pointless arguing about what is or what is not an EE dispute. It opens up the door for the many people who are holding a long term grudge against Piotrus - and let's be honest here, we all know that there are some individuals here who are still holding on to 5+ year old grudges and who make a regular appearance at these motions (and don't contribute much to Wikipedia besides) - and only encourages the battleground atmosphere that permeates this area. This is not Piotrus' fault, rather it reflects on the folks who seemingly just can't let go. </p><p>Either do or don't. And I suggest you "don't" keep the sanctions. None of Piotrus' edits in the past year have been controversial in any way. Except in the way that a bad faith editor can always make a controversy out of nothing, like for example, pretending that minor gnomish edits to articles that have NEVER been a subject of controversy suddenly (after five years of quiet) break the "the letter" of an Arbitration remedy that was actually intended TO GET RID of these kind of onerous restrictions. Usually we call that "wikilawyering" and "battleground behavior". Now, THAT wastes people's time. </p><p>Yes, Novickas, is one of these editors and quite, frankly I can't quite understand why Piotrus is even replying to him. Look at the exchange at Piotrus' talk page <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Piotrus#Re_your_AE_topic_ban_appeal">[42]</a> and tell me that this isn't straight up "baiting a topic banned editor" or, in the words of the directions of the AE page, "poking a caged animal with a stick" - however politely/hypocritically worded Novickas' comments may be. The sanctions on Piotrus were not enough, the purpose of comments such as these - however politely they are worded - are only to try and humiliate Piotrus further, an editor that has done far more for the encyclopedia than any of his critics. This has been going on again and again, every-time this kind of motion has come up in the past months. By this point it's become a form of kitsch. </p><p>However much I've disagreed with various people on Wikipedia in the past, I've never understood this apparent desire on the part of some to try and not just "win" these perceived battlegrounds but also this constant effort to denigrate, kick while they're down, and humiliate other editors - apparently for some people it's personal and they enjoy that sort of thing. If you want to know why this is a battleground area - that's it right there, however politely these statements are sometimes worded. </p><p>For what it's worth, Piotrus would probably disagree with my assessment above since he seems to always believe that for all it's faults Wikipedia is a great social experiment, while I'm much more cynical about it (though I recognize the good about Wikipedia I also think it's an insanely dysfunctional millieu). Don't hold my own personal negativity against him. </p><p>Removing the sanction completely will quiet shit down in the EE area by removing this perverted incentive for battleground warriors to constantly file spurious and pointless requests and allow Piotrus to get back to the simple grunt work (formatting, assessing, writing non controversial content) that no one appreciates anyway. Which is how Wikipedia is supposed to work, right?<small><span style="border:1px solid black;padding:1px;"><a href="/wiki/User:Volunteer_Marek" title="User:Volunteer Marek"><span style="color:blue;background:orange;font-family:sans-serif;"><b> Volunteer Marek </b></span></a></span></small> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:40, 11 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z-Statement_by_Volunteer_Marek"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T08:58:00.000Z-Volunteer_Marek-2011-01-11T07:40:00.000Z"></span>Btw (I can't resist a snide comment here), since Novickas is pretty convinced that "if (he) were in Piotrus' shoes" he'd know how to "stay within the line" (just to spare others the aggravation of having to wikistalk his edits, not that anyone, least of all Novickas, is wikistalking Piotrus' edits of course) and that he is so sure that he "personally would know how to stay well inside the topic ban boundary" (which insinuates that Piotrus hasn't, while in fact Piotrus HAS - crafty how he sneaked that in there, ey?)

It's true, Piotrus and I coordinated off wiki in order for Piotrus to "decorate me" with the "bear barnstar" award. This has been in works for months but alas, our nefarious plan has been exposed, with one brilliant stroke by Skapperod <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&diff=prev&oldid=409384795">[43]</a>. </p><p>It went down something like this: </p> <ul><li>I emailed Piotrus saying, hey you, how about giving me a barnstar with a bear on it.</li> <li>Piotrus emailed back saying, oooh, that's a good plan, do you think we'll get away with it</li> <li>Then I emailed him again with a message consisting solely of "bwahahahahaha"</li> <li>Then he emailed saying ok, which bear barnstar do you want</li> <li>And I emailed saying the one with the angriest bear possible</li> <li>And he replied good thinking, the angrier the bear in the barnstar the more damage to Wikipedia it will cause</li> <li>And I said yes thasrite</li> <li>And he said how about this one?</li> <li>And I said, no angrier!</li> <li>And he said how about this one?</li> <li>And I said, no angrier!</li> <li>And he said this is the best I got</li> <li>And I said ok it'll have to do, but let's get our cabal to photoshop that image up a bit to make the bear look even angrier</li></ul> <p>Months and months of coordination and making the bear barnstar look angry followed. All kinds of auxiliary characters were involved. The conspiracy ran so deep that even a couple members of the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Article_Rescue_Squadron&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Article Rescue Squadron (page does not exist)">Article Rescue Squadron</a> contributed. </p><p>Finally the angry barnstar was angry enough </p> <ul><li>Piotrus emailed me saying ok we ready to go with the angry bear barnstar</li> <li>And I emailed saying oh crap that bear don't look no angry it look like laughing</li> <li>And Piotrus said it both angry and laughing.

When it was crossing the <a href="/wiki/Alps" title="Alps">Alps</a> there was an unexpected delay due to heavy snow. The plan was almost exposed when an innocent five year old, Bardamu Masthed, began making uncomfortable inquiries But the mountain passes were cleared just in time and the barnstar commenced upon its fated journey. </p> <figure typeof="mw:Error mw:File/Thumb"><a href="//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload?wpDestFile=Angry_bear_barnstar_crossing_the_alps.jpg" class="new" title="File:Angry bear barnstar crossing the alps.jpg"><span class="mw-file-element mw-broken-media" data-width="100">File:Angry bear barnstar crossing the alps.jpg</span></a><figcaption>Angry bear barnstar crossing the alps, which is actually the actual event that triggered the debate</figcaption></figure> <p>It was while it was being transported down the <a href="/wiki/Nile" title="Nile">Nile</a> that we first began to suspect that Skapperod's agents were on our trail. A certain half-<a href="/wiki/Tunisian" class="mw-disambig" title="Tunisian">Tunisian</a>, half-<a href="/wiki/Livonian" class="mw-disambig" title="Livonian">Livonian</a>, named Dripplenard Aloyzee MacFintz, was booked on the very cruise ship which contained the unmarked crate with the angry/mocking bear barnstar, and throughout the journey expressed suspicious interest in the cargo of the lower deck on which the crate was hidden. The matters came to a head when Mr. MacFintz, in trying to sneak a peak at the contraband ended up releasing the Barnstar which then proceeded to wreck havoc among the ship's crew and passengers. It ran amok, angry, and mocking. It slaughtered the captain and the first mate. It drove the survivors under the deck just as the <a href="/wiki/Egyptian" class="mw-disambig" title="Egyptian">Egyptian</a> night had fallen. It stalked them through the twisted maze of cargo boxes and ate them one by one. It was death on de Nile. It was like the zombie movie except it was an angry/mocking bear barnstar instead of <a href="/wiki/Zombies" class="mw-redirect" title="Zombies">zombies</a>. </p><p>Anyway, the barnstar, after it had its fill of mayhem and killing escaped into the deepest regions of Africa. We had to track it through the snows of the twin peaks of <a href="/wiki/Mt._Kilimanjaro" class="mw-redirect" title="Mt. Kilimanjaro">Mt. Kilimanjaro</a>, by using our undercover social network of an interest group. In our pursuit through the driest sands of Sahara we were once again almost thwarted by Skapperod, when another one of his agents, a Miss Gella Abadonn Checkers, a powerful sorceress summoned up a sand storm which threatened to burry us along with our camels (that's right, we had some <a href="/wiki/Camels" class="mw-redirect" title="Camels">camels</a>, or actually CaEEMLs). Thankfully we were rescued by a band of Hyrkonian nomads under the leadership of a wild maned Cimmerian. </p> <figure typeof="mw:Error mw:File/Thumb"><a href="//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload?wpDestFile=Angry_bear_barnstar_on_the_nile.JPG" class="new" title="File:Angry bear barnstar on the nile.JPG"><span class="mw-file-element mw-broken-media" data-width="100">File:Angry bear barnstar on the nile.JPG</span></a><figcaption>Angry bear barnstar on a ship on de Nile where it unleashed havoc. How come that isn't being debated?</figcaption></figure> <p>In the jungles of Congo we heard rumors that an angry/mocking bear barnstar had established itself as one of the local warlords. It grew powerful and none could stop it because, Skapperod's secret agent #3, Azazello Turbin, had taught it the language of <a href="/wiki/Insects" class="mw-redirect" title="Insects">insects</a>, which allowed the barnstar to know everything that was happening in the bush at all times. But such powerful knowledge also came at a terrible price - that of <a href="/wiki/Sanity" title="Sanity">sanity</a> - and by the time we caught up with it it was ill and near death. We placed it on our sloop and set out for home. It died a few nights later after screaming "the horror! the horror!" obviously wracked by overwhelming guilt over our nefarious plan to coordinate the decoration. </p><p>It was at that point that Piotrus said what we gonna do now our plan looks fail? </p> <ul><li>And then I said there must be something let us not give up</li> <li>And Piotrus said we need a shaman or a monk, from Tibetia</li> <li>And then I emailed and said why need a shaman?</li> <li>Piotrus said we can resurrect the angry/mocking bear barnstar though there will be a price</li> <li>I said I already sold my soul last time around when EEML case was ongoing and all I got for it was an "Abstain" vote from NYBrad I'm all out of soul</li> <li>No, no, Piotrus said, no soul. It'll only be 145.99$ that's the standard rate</li> <li>I said ok I use my credit card but where we get shaman?</li> <li>Piotrus said he was going to find shaman at a meet up</li></ul> <p>That's right, the <a href="/wiki/Shaman" class="mw-redirect" title="Shaman">shaman</a> was Shell and the whole point of the Wikipedia <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh" title="Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a> meet up was to resurrect the angry/mocking barnstar. But wait you say? Didn't the meet up take place AFTER the decoration took place. That's <a href="/wiki/Right" class="mw-redirect" title="Right">right</a>. Don't worry about that. </p><p>Well... ok I tell you. </p><p>That was Malik's part in all this. </p><p>Piotrus wrote Malik hey we need to <a href="/wiki/Time_travel" title="Time travel">travel in time</a> to resurrect the angry/mocking bear barnstar </p> <ul><li>Malik said ok I know some people that can help us but they are aliens</li> <li>I said from the outer worlds?</li> <li>And he said yes they know hot to rip the fabric of the space time continuum</li> <li>I said but what if that destroys the universe</li> <li>And then Piotrus just wrote back an email with only "Bwahahahaha" in it</li> <li>And Malik said, it's ok there are always other universes, like de.Wiki</li></ul> <p>So Malik used his other worldly connections as well as the "accumulated, considerable expertise and infrastructure" with an <a href="/w/index.php?title=Interstellar_mafia&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Interstellar mafia (page does not exist)">interstellar mafia</a> of aliens, run by a fella named Stupendous Ramiz, to arrange a break in the <a href="/wiki/Time_space_continuum" class="mw-redirect" title="Time space continuum">time space continuum</a>.

The email was from the Deacon of Bildgewater and it only contained the future photograph of Shell and Piotrus at the Pittsburgh meet up.

Piotrus's topic ban should just be lifted. It is going to expire on 22 March anyway and maybe this discussion will still be going on then. Discretionary sanctions are available under Digwuren for this topic area so if any ban relaxation turns out to be premature, AE can deal with it. Should the arbs feel they want to keep the ban, they should add a provision for somebody (AE?) to authorize Piotrus to edit a particular article. This would avoid him needing to edit first and then see if he is sanctioned, which is a peculiar system. <a href="/wiki/User:EdJohnston" title="User:EdJohnston">EdJohnston</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:EdJohnston" title="User talk:EdJohnston">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-EdJohnston-2011-01-12T01:59:00.000Z-Statement_by_EdJohnston" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:59, 12 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-EdJohnston-2011-01-12T01:59:00.000Z-Statement_by_EdJohnston"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-EdJohnston-2011-01-12T01:59:00.000Z-Statement_by_EdJohnston"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Statement_by_Ohconfucius" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Ohconfucius-Amendment_1-2011-01-12T02:27:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Ohconfucius-Amendment_1-2011-01-12T02:27:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Ohconfucius<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Ohconfucius-Amendment_1-2011-01-12T02:27:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Ohconfucius-2011-01-12T02:27:00.000Z-Statement_by_Ohconfucius"></span>It seems clear from the evidence and Sysop views above that the 'broadly construed' nature of this topic ban is being used by some editors generally hostile to harass Piotrus, game the system, and create drama.

We are now searching for a new wording to reflect how NYB wants Piotrus to be 'restricted', since apparently ArbCom messed up with the current wording. I should point out that NYB wanted this a long time ago, but the ArbCom of the past was wiser, resisted NYB's urgings and imposed the original broad restriction on Piotrus. Arbcom later reduced this restriction, but this was a bad decision, for a variety of reasons (fuelling resentment among opponents, boosting the appeal of gaming methodology, inviting more appeals/amendments across the board, and so on). </p><p>Now that the reduced restriction has proved lawyerable we want to drop all restrictions? Not sure what the big deal here is supposed to be! Piotrus obviously knows very well what he is not supposed to do, and everyone here ought to know already that if we aren't super-humanly careful in phraseology, he will simply wikilawyer himself out of most AE requests. All arbs should know enough about Piotrus and EEML now to understand and take measures to prevent it. How does capitulating to it help? What does that say about ArbCom? </p><p>The previous relaxation of restrictions on Piotrus simply validated old methods and brought the troubles back (so far as it could). Piotrus is a decent content contributor, sure, but he is pressured both by his own ideology and by his 'support network' to become embroiled in nationalist disputes and resort to wiki-gangsterism in areas he has little expertise. Piotrus is a victim who needs saved just as much as his own past and future victims. Being restrained from this area, he contributes productively to fields where he actually possesses expertise and is of benefit to the project. But even if he is released back into the area, he should at least serve his time. Nothing will cause more resentment among his opponents than Piotrus once again escaping through this kind of pressure. </p><p>PS ... I am not very impressed with NYB's intervention in the AE thread. ArbCom get to make rulings, individual arbs shouldn't try to enforce (or suggest on their authority) a preferred interpretation on AE admins (we have Clarification anyway). All users need to be protected from the caprice and injustice that this would cause. AE admins have a duty to ignore arbs if they try to interfere in the process, but the arbs themselves should know better (this is not addressed to Kiril or Shell, who are recused). The current wording is indeed badly written, but clearly implies that Piotrus should not be allowed to edit any EE article if there is likely to be some kind of nationalist dispute involved. It is established principle of AE enforcement that rulings are interpreted broadly. You may be telling the truth regarding your own intent, but it is irrelevant, since you didn't word the draft well enough to make that intent clear. If you wanted something that allowed Piotrus to edit uncontroversially in the area, that may be respectable ... but it needed more thought. Piotrus could have been restricted to Poland-only articles with content not impinging on the histories of other European countries (as presently defined). He would probably try his luck at stretching and lawyering this, but it is a set of limits that AE admins don't need expertise to enforce AND would fulfill much of the purpose. </p> <dl><dt>Disclosure requests</dt></dl> <p>I received an email from a non-involved user in this matter informing me that he was canvassed for the AE thread by Piotrus. The email itself contained a quite dishonest account of Mkativerata's block. Because of this I think it would be of benefit to the project if those canvassed would disclose that they were canvassed. I'd also like to request that all arbitrators who have met Piotrus personally disclose this. This in itself is not a reason for recusal, but the onlooking community are entitled to know if any users subject to ArbCom rulings may have been able to exert more influence than others. </p> <dl><dt>Response to NYB</dt></dl> <p>Newyorkbrad, yes, you may have envisioned your draft in a particular way, but that doesn't mean other arbs who voted on it did; and even if other arbs now claim to have had the same understanding, there is no way of verifying this. AE admins are entitled to use the most obvious meaning of a text, and one individual arbitrator trying to insist on [the] one 'real meaning' [he happens to like] of a resolution after the resolution has passed is ill-advised. Imagine if this were to happen all the time. ;) </p> <dl><dt>Response to Shell</dt></dl> <p>I think Shell's comments here and on my talk page should speak for themselves. In response, I'd point out that she was accusing me of several things, including bearing a grudge against Piotrus. This is frequently stated by EEML because they wish to defuse the impact of my comments. SK's has seemingly been inadvertently co-opted as a mouthpiece. My previous interaction with her came when she lambasted me for complaining about Piotrus closing a 3RR thread Radek was involved in and warning his opponent as an admin. I don't wish to have any dispute with her, but being attacked seems to be a consequence of sticking up for wikipedia on this matter. Incidentally, I didn't 'dig up' the photo, I was sent a link to it by an anonymous Wikipedian. I merely asked if they were RL friends. She didn't really have any reason to get so worked up with bad faith about this, as she is recused and is free even to join EEML if she wants. :) <a href="/wiki/User:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim" title="User:Deacon of Pndapetzim">Deacon of Pndapetzim</a> (<small><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Deacon_of_Pndapetzim" title="User talk:Deacon of Pndapetzim">Talk</a></small>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Deacon_of_Pndapetzim-2011-01-18T22:49:00.000Z-Statement_by_Deacon_of_Pndapetzim" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:49, 18 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Deacon_of_Pndapetzim-2011-01-18T22:49:00.000Z-Statement_by_Deacon_of_Pndapetzim"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Deacon_of_Pndapetzim-2011-01-18T22:49:00.000Z-Statement_by_Deacon_of_Pndapetzim"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Deacon_of_Pndapetzim-2011-01-19T01:39:00.000Z-Deacon_of_Pndapetzim-2011-01-18T22:49:00.000Z"></span>PS, I don't think it is credible for Shell to be claiming neutrality <b>at this stage</b> (if that's what she's doing), not with edits like <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Piotrus&diff=408106820&oldid=407883668">this</a> so recently.

An admin (Deacon) leveling accusations of wikilawyering is unhelpful when a ban is demonstrably open to misinterpretation as worded.

(I recall a note to Mkativerata some time ago, we had a cordial exchange.) I always include a clear statement I am not block shopping. An admin who becomes active in EE topics should expect to receive complaints and commentary from the full spectrum of EE editorial contributors. Mkativerata should not be "surprised" about being contacted. And why bring contact up <i>if there has been no inappropriate contact here</i>? Witness the needless drama already caused with Skäpperöd's resultant (and not wholly unwarranted given the implication of inappropriate contact) witch hunting. I would request that if any admin feels anyone has contacted them inappropriately (block shopping et al.) that an AN/I be opened and the inappropriate contact be addressed. Seeking sanctions behind editors' backs is a perpetual problem in many areas of conflict and should be addressed and discouraged. <a href="/wiki/User:Vecrumba" title="User:Vecrumba">P<small>ЄTЄRS</small> <s>J</s> V<small>ЄСRUМВА</small></a><small> ►<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Vecrumba" title="User talk:Vecrumba">TALK</a></small> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T04:57:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:01, 19 January 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T04:57:00.000Z"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T04:57:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><i><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T16:58:00.000Z-Vecrumba-2011-01-19T03:01:00.000Z"></span>re: Timotheus Canens</i>, the locus of contention is present day conflicts in the <i>portrayal</i> of Soviet legacy, also, more widely but to a lesser extent, other Eastern European/Central Eastern European conflicts regarding <i>portrayal</i> of topics, e.g., people names and place names ("which language" is uber alles, etc.), similarly with roots in historical representation.

Irpen also denounced me for personal attacks when I simply indicated he misrepresented sources, Irpen is hardly an editor to hold up as an example of WP rectitude regarding the so-called EE dispute. We are moving on, you are moving backwards as demonstrated by bringing up EE warrior Irpen from three years ago. Lastly, please refrain from presenting you characterizations of personal correspondence as fact. EEML is closed. If it's not, I'm sure ArbCom will let us know, in which case I would also take a different course of action from moving on. Until then I suggest you move on before this starts looking like a vendetta. <a href="/wiki/User:Vecrumba" title="User:Vecrumba">P<small>ЄTЄRS</small> <s>J</s> V<small>ЄСRUМВА</small></a><small> ►<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Vecrumba" title="User talk:Vecrumba">TALK</a></small></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Statement_by_Skäpperöd" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-Amendment_1-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"><span id="Statement_by_Sk.C3.A4pper.C3.B6d"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-Amendment_1-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Skäpperöd<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-Amendment_1-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Question_to_Mkativerata" data-mw-thread-id="h-Question_to_Mkativerata-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Question_to_Mkativerata-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"></span>Question to Mkativerata<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Question_to_Mkativerata-Statement_by_Skäpperöd-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z"></span></h5></div> <p><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&diff=408507074&oldid=408497331"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Skäpperöd-2011-01-18T17:03:00.000Z-Question_to_Mkativerata"></span>Who sent you those e-mails?</a> I am asking because trying to influence/cause administrative decisions by coordinating e-mails etc to AE sysops like Thatcher, Sandstein, Jehochman etc was one of the verified tactics employed by the EEML group, usually coordinated by Piotrus.

Having looked at a number of other photographs from that evening, it's clear that a disturbing pattern emerges; I imagine you'd shudder just to see them. It turns out several other photgraphs caught me looking at people, obviously in the midst of plotting some dastardly scheme. In others, you can easily identify who I've managed to recruit as I was seen to be shaking hands with them to seal the deal. There are also photos of me flitting from person to person, most certainly canvassing for additional support and even supplying them with small trinkets to ensure their loyalty.

This is reinforced by other comments which seek to use it in a punitive and not preventive manner. Pursuant to our general policy and lack of evident current or recent abusive behavior by the requesting party, that seems to argue for early removal of the restriction. If misbehavior appears again it's easy enough for admins to intervene within our usual scope and authority. </p><p>Generally - There seems to be lingering bad blood on several parties' account, without justifiable ongoing provocation, to the extent that an interaction ban is called for. This seems like not the right venue for that, but it may be appropriate on AN.

If they still have trouble, they will be quickly brought to AE and sanctioned by AE administrators. This can be said not only about Piotrus. </p><p>There is nothing wrong with talking or sending emails. If there is an <i>evidence</i> that the content of recent emails by Piotrus or conversations with Piotrus was indeed inappropriate, then it can be treated accordingly. However, repeatedly making personal accusations at public forums <i>without any evidence</i> about Piotrus and everyone who talks with him is a serious violation of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AGF" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AGF">WP:AGF</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPA">WP:NPA</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BATTLE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BATTLE">WP:BATTLE</a> and must be prevented from repeating in the future, for example by issuing interactions bans for the parties guilty of the violations. The photo is not an evidence because talking with Piotrus is not a crime. Telling "thank you" to others after coming back from his block is also not a crime.

The task ran between 18 December and 14 January for about 2500 edits. Lightbot has been dealing with units of measurement since June 2008 and has played a part in significantly improving the accessibility, consistency and smarter linking of units of measurement that we now see on Wikipedia.

Is that correct?

Jack has around 170 talk page watchers, and <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jack_Merridew" title="User talk:Jack Merridew">his talk page</a> is often used as a "reference desk" for technical help – which Jack is always happy to give, as anyone can see from viewing it – and I'd encourage arbitrators to read at least some of his talk page to get a flavour of how well he is regarded by other editors, as well as the generosity with which he gives his time them. I submit that Jack knows whom he can turn to to seek advice, and there is no reason remaining for any restriction on his editing. </p><p>That leaves the restriction to editing from only one named account. I know Jack has been considering a name change, to leave behind the baggage of the <i>Lord of the Flies</i> avatar, and the third restriction would technically need amendment to allow that to happen. Nevertheless, the important point is that Jack has spent the two years since his unblock contributing constructively and collaboratively. I see no suggestion that he is in any way likely to return to abusive sockpuppetry. Jack has two alternative accounts <a href="/wiki/User:Gold_Hat" title="User:Gold Hat">Gold Hat</a> and <a href="/wiki/User:Merridew" title="User:Merridew">Merridew</a> which are linked to <a href="/wiki/User:Jack_Merridew" title="User:Jack Merridew">Jack Merridew</a> and neither of these has made any remotely abusive edits. </p><p>Jack has a considerable quantity of edits on other wikimedia projects, although I'm not sure how relevant arbitrators will feel that is to this request. I believe that it is a further demonstration of his commitment to the betterment of our projects. </p><p>I'd ask ArbCom to review Jack's contributions and interactions with other users, and to consider whether they would agree that unnecessary restrictions do no more than create a "second-class" user. Jack's ban was lifted over two years ago. The current restriction is now over a year old, and I'd suggest that it's time to remove it. </p><p>Disclaimer: I'd consider myself a "wiki-friend" of Jack's – and proud of it. Nevertheless, this statement is unsolicited, and is my own unaided analysis of the request. --<a href="/wiki/User:RexxS" title="User:RexxS">RexxS</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RexxS" title="User talk:RexxS">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-RexxS-2011-02-21T02:21:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">02:21, 21 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RexxS-2011-02-21T02:21:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RexxS-2011-02-21T02:21:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS"></span> </p> <dl><dt><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RexxS-2011-02-21T16:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS"></span>@Elen</dt> <dd>I'm pretty sure that there is no limit set on the number of accounts that a user (except Jack and a few others) can operate. As long as these are transparently linked and are not simultaneously used in discussion to create false consensus, there is no problem. Many admins have a second account that they use when logged in at public terminals or when travelling to limit the potential damage if that account became compromised. I strongly recommend that to anyone who carries advanced permissions. Some editors have multiple accounts to divide up their work: content creation on one; gnoming, vandal-fighting on others – it helps to compartmentalise interactions with others and allows multiple watchlists (which is very useful if you participate in multiple areas). A few editors have multiple accounts because they can be a refuge from the sometimes humourless tasks that we take on when we contribute. Wouldn't you like to get away from your current wiki-persona once in a while and comment from the perspective of a gigantic reptile or an aggressive, ankle-fixated fish? Jack's no different. He'd like to be 'Gold Hat', the Texan/Mexican gunslinger, every so often. It's not going to break the wiki to let him. --<a href="/wiki/User:RexxS" title="User:RexxS">RexxS</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RexxS" title="User talk:RexxS">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-RexxS-2011-02-21T16:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:24, 21 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RexxS-2011-02-21T16:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RexxS-2011-02-21T16:24:00.000Z-Statement_by_RexxS"></span></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Question_by_Casliber" data-mw-thread-id="h-Question_by_Casliber-Amendment-2011-02-21T02:28:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Question_by_Casliber-Amendment-2011-02-21T02:28:00.000Z"></span>Question by Casliber<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Question_by_Casliber-Amendment-2011-02-21T02:28:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Casliber-2011-02-21T02:28:00.000Z-Question_by_Casliber"></span>Why do you feel the need to continue with multiple accounts, even if identified as such?

It seems like he has been very helpful as a technical advisor, and as a general wikignome, so despite our mostly completely incompatible wikiphilosophies, I'd say Jack is currently a net positive to Wikipedia. However, his answers to Casliber and Elen's questions seem wholly unsatisfactory to me, so I'll follow up with a couple of my own: </p> <ul><li>What is the purpose of continued use of the sockpuppet accounts (both those made before the ban, and those made after)? Why request the unblock of the Moby Dick account?</li> <li>What do you intend to do with these accounts if your restrictions are lifted? What do you intend to do with them if your user name is changed?</li></ul> <p>It looks like Jack has been using these accounts for a bit of levity recently, and I recall some sort of amendment request weeks ago where there was a very minor uproar about them, which was laughed off. While there is no specific prohibition from using alternate accounts in a non-disruptive way, nor is there any specific prohibition from having "joke" accounts, it doesn't especially benefit the project in any way to use these alternate accounts (except for a bit of comedy, and usually in-jokes at that), so it would be nice to hear a bit more of Jack's perspective before the Arbs decide whether to lift his restriction on using only one account at a time. <a href="/wiki/User:BOZ" title="User:BOZ">BOZ</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:BOZ" title="User talk:BOZ">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-BOZ-2011-02-21T07:59:00.000Z-Questions_by_BOZ" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:59, 21 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-BOZ-2011-02-21T07:59:00.000Z-Questions_by_BOZ"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-BOZ-2011-02-21T07:59:00.000Z-Questions_by_BOZ"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Statement_by_Timotheus_Canens_2" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Timotheus_Canens_2-Amendment-2011-02-21T22:12:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Timotheus_Canens_2-Amendment-2011-02-21T22:12:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Timotheus Canens<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Timotheus_Canens_2-Amendment-2011-02-21T22:12:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Timotheus_Canens-2011-02-21T22:12:00.000Z-Statement_by_Timotheus_Canens_2"></span>Can the committee at least <i>please</i> figure out what exactly is the right way to view <a href="/wiki/User:Gold_Hat" title="User:Gold Hat">Gold Hat</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Gold_Hat" title="User talk:Gold Hat">talk</a> <b>·</b> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Gold_Hat" title="Special:Contributions/Gold Hat">contribs</a>) etc.? <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#Arbitrator_views_and_discussion" title="Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Jack Merridew ban review motion">Last time I brought this here</a>, Coren declared that viewing them as a violation "is — at best — an unwarranted overreaction".

Being a newbie editor Jack helped show me the ropes, guide me, and mentor me. I soon discovered he had a history, but unlike several other editors here he prominently links his history on his main account, along with revealing all his other accounts. A couple clicks on his userpage, some ...<i>light</i>... reading, and I knew the whole story. As others have mentioned, his talk page is an informal "village pump" for technical questions. He makes a habit of fixing the HTML code in signatures on his userpage. He reaches out to certain recently indef-blocked users who he feels can be mentored to productive editing. In short, Jack is a massive net positive to the project. </p><p>All Jack is asking here is for his restrictions to be removed. They serve no purpose anymore except to cause confusion as the "Gold Hat" question of last month indicates. His restrictions are no longer preventing damage to the encyclopedia. In actuality, they are becoming a punitive punishment by turning Jack into a "second-class" editor. </p><p>Jack has many talk page watchers, including me. He can be set loose on the wiki safely. He's an administrator on WikiSource for what that's worth here. Remove the stigma by unblocking his previous accounts and ending his arbcom restrictions. <span style="font-size:smaller;font-family:'arial bold',sans-serif;border:1px solid Black;"><a href="/wiki/User:N419BH" class="mw-redirect" title="User:N419BH"><span style="color:Black;background:#FFD700;">N419</span></a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:N419BH" title="User talk:N419BH"><span style="background:Black;color:#FFD700;">BH</span></a></span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-N419BH-2011-02-22T07:20:00.000Z-Statement_by_N419BH" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:20, 22 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-N419BH-2011-02-22T07:20:00.000Z-Statement_by_N419BH"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-N419BH-2011-02-22T07:20:00.000Z-Statement_by_N419BH"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Statement_by_Dr._Blofeld" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_Dr._Blofeld-Amendment-2011-02-22T19:43:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_Dr._Blofeld-Amendment-2011-02-22T19:43:00.000Z"></span>Statement by Dr. Blofeld<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_Dr._Blofeld-Amendment-2011-02-22T19:43:00.000Z"></span></h4></div> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Dr._Blofeld-2011-02-22T19:43:00.000Z-Statement_by_Dr._Blofeld"></span>Lift the restriction on good ole Jack.

At first glance that may look like bias, but people regard Jack as a friend because his presence and contributions are seen as positive. I've known Jack and interracted with him for about a year, and to be honest I did not much care for him to begin with. He has a direct approach that is sometimes blunt and lacking in tact, but I feel my initial impression of him was a little hasty. I believe that everything he does is ultimately with the aim of benefiting the project, and that every article edit is intended as an incremental improvement, and every talk comment as a step forward. I've noticed that he presents his opinions and arguments very lucidly and with reference to policies and protocols, and that he remains patient and focussed even when discussions veer off track. His talk page is full of requests for help, and he has always responded quickly, helpfully and with good humour, and I think he's helped quite a few editors find their feet. His range of knowledge and interest is expansive, and he has a lot to offer. The thing that impresses me most about him is that he is consistent, and that he speaks for what he believes is right, and when something requires participation, he participates. He holds strong opinions, and is willing to express them, and I've also seen him take on board the opinions of others and modify his stance. He is a collaborative editor, and in that regard, I don't think any more could be asked of any editor. I think he's made a substantial contribution to Wikipedia and to maintain these restrictions would serve no purpose.

Evidence has been provided privately to ArbCom about two users associated off-wiki with both Captain Occam and Ferahgo the Assassin. </p><p>At the end of January, unprompted, Captain Occam's editing on wikipedia entered a new stage of disruption. Members of ArbCom are already aware of the public letter written under his real name to the Economist. He has used this letter on wikipedia as a springboard to reopen the closed case <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:ARBR%26I" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:ARBR&I">WP:ARBR&I</a> and renew allegations on wikipedia that have not been accepted by ArbCom. Captain Occam appears to be fanning the flames in several venues, entirely against the spirit of his topic ban. His edits at the moment suggest that, not only is he still in conflict with users previously involved in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:ARBR%26I" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:ARBR&I">WP:ARBR&I</a> but no longer active on the articles, but that he is in conflict with ArbCom itself. He has not moved on from the ArbCom case, nor does he seem to take any responsibility for his own actions. </p><p>Previous procedural disruption occurred in December when ArbCom had already voted to lift my topic ban on their own initiative. In these circumstances, and in view of his lack of openness in addressing the outstanding issues of meatpuppetry, even when questioned by arbitrators, some form of site-ban unfortunately now seems necessary. Diffs can be provided on request, but almost all recent non-article space postings are relevant. <a href="/wiki/User:Mathsci" title="User:Mathsci">Mathsci</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mathsci" title="User talk:Mathsci">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z-Statement_by_Mathsci" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:58, 6 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z-Statement_by_Mathsci"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z-Statement_by_Mathsci"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mathsci-2011-02-07T03:23:00.000Z-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z"></span>To clarify, I am referring to what Captain Occam has written on wikipedia, not what was in the letter to the Economist. The publication of the letter has been used as a pretext for making distressing statements on wikipedia, some concerning me, which appear to contravene Captain Occam's extended topic ban, or at least the spirit of the ban. On <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales" title="User talk:Jimbo Wales">User talk:Jimbo Wales</a>, Captain Occam stated that the submitted letter contained a reference to Varoon Arya and the claimed circumstances under which he stopped editing. Captain Occam explained that that part of the letter was not published. The passage he mentioned is an unambiguous reference to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Race_and_intelligence/Evidence#Mathsci.E2.80.99s_behavior_has_driven_away_other_productive_editors." title="Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Race and intelligence/Evidence">this part</a> of Captain Occam's evidence in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:ARBR%26I" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:ARBR&I">WP:ARBR&I</a> and concerned only me; those claims were not accepted by arbitrators. Captain Occam's initiation of a discussion on that point out of the blue seems disruptive. He has made further statements which also do not tally with the ArbCom findings <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Town_sheriff&diff=prev&oldid=412245001">here</a>. I am upset that he mentioned my name, when there was no reason (see below). The events that led up to the ArbCom case had no particular logic: misjudgements and serious failings occurred which were accurately pinpointed by members of ArbCom; their findings and remedies appeared to resolve matters in a completely satisfactory way, at least as far as I was concerned. I have only praise for the way every arbitrator handled things.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>Following the close of the case, however, Captain Occam has firstly attempted to get his girlfriend to edit on his behalf and then, when that failed, they jointly brought in at least two other friends, whose real life identities are known to ArbCom and who have been editing R&I-related pages fairly recently. The discussions that Captain Occam has started at the moment seem equally unhelpful. If they were general and intended to improve wikipedia that would be fine; but the starting point was the ARBR&I case and repeatedly users and past events that should absolutely <b>not</b> be discussed are mentioned. In the statement in the diff above, Captain Occam wrote (I think to Ludwigs2 amongst others), "You probably remember the way this went when we were dealing with Mathsci’s personal attacks last spring. Some of the comments in question were completely obvious and clear-cut violations of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPA">WP:NPA</a>, and ArbCom eventually agreed with us about that, but every time this issue was brought up at AN/I most of the people there ended up supporting Mathsci regardless, and it was impossible to find a sysop who was willing to do anything about how he was acting. How can we be confident that this same situation won’t arise when someone is trying to report a popular sheriff who’s abused his power?" Surely sanctions were intended to prevent exactly statements of that nature being made. My name was brought up when it had no relevance to the discussion. That kind of behaviour is not very different from the accusations that Captain Occam made about Roger Davies just before Christmas, also on <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales" title="User talk:Jimbo Wales">User talk:Jimbo Wales</a>, just after the vote to lift my topic ban. Roger had proposed the motion and I think Captain Occam was suggesting that the proposal was out of order because he suspected I had influenced Roger behind the scenes. I would understand Newyorkbrad's point if Captain Occam had been talking about someone other than me; but unfortunately that does not seem to be the case. <a href="/wiki/User:Mathsci" title="User:Mathsci">Mathsci</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mathsci" title="User talk:Mathsci">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Mathsci-2011-02-07T03:23:00.000Z-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:23, 7 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mathsci-2011-02-07T03:23:00.000Z-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mathsci-2011-02-07T03:23:00.000Z-Mathsci-2011-02-06T05:58:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dt><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mathsci-2011-02-07T03:23:00.000Z-Statement_by_Mathsci"></span>Additional comments</dt> <dd></dd></dl> <ul><li>I was unsure how to deal with the incidents described above: because of private information, the issues of meatpuppetry (the details of which have been passed on to ArbCom) could only be dealt with by ArbCom.</li> <li>Captain Occam officially invited Ludwigs2 to comment here <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ludwigs2&diff=prev&oldid=412423740">[72]</a> having added his name to the list of parties. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Amendment&diff=412421387&oldid=412420852">[73]</a> Why he did he add Ludwigs2?</li> <li>Zarboublian, editing after a month's absence, is very probably an alternative account of Quotient group, himself an alternative account of A.K.Nole, formerly editing as The Wiki House (with Kenilworth Terrace and Groomtech); he is now in a slightly different geographic location in the UK.

Since the reforms I had in mind could only be implemented by the board of trustees, I brought up my letter in Jimbo Wales’ user talk to make sure he was aware of it. My initial post in Jimbo Wales’ user talk <i>also</i> did not mention the R&I case by name, although it referred to one editor (Varoon Arya) who had been involved in it. Jimbo Wales made it clear that he thought this was an issue worth discussing (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jimbo_Wales&diff=prev&oldid=411222178">[89]</a>, <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jimbo_Wales&diff=prev&oldid=411587212">[90]</a>) and Cool Hand Luke appeared to think so also. (<a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jimbo_Wales&diff=prev&oldid=411620349">[91]</a> <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jimbo_Wales&diff=prev&oldid=411623842">[92]</a>). I think it’s fairly clear that none of this, at this stage, was a violation of my topic ban. </p><p>After I had started this thread, several other past participants in the R&I case noticed either my letter or the thread in Jimbo’s user talk, and figured out that the R&I case was what I was referring to. It’s not hard to figure out, since that’s the only arbitration case I’ve been directly involved in. Two of them (Mathsci and Muntuwandi) showed up in the thread in Jimbo’s user talk challenging me about specifics, and a third (Slrubenstein) made a pair of personal attacks against me in someone else’s user talk. (The attacks have now been deleted using RevDel, so I can’t link to the diffs.) Before these editors began challenging me, I’d had no prior contact with any of them in the past month. </p><p>The real mistake I made here was a lack of foresight. Even though my initial statement in Jimbo Wales’ user talk did not violate my topic ban or refer directly to any of these editors, I should have predicted that they would view it as an invitation to engage me in further discussion about the R&I case. That said, I need to emphasize that <b>my intention was not to continue this conflict</b>, and I had no involvement with Mathsci, Muntuwandi or Slrubenstein over this issue until they chose to become involved in it themselves. </p><p>I would still like to be able to work towards improving Wikipedia’s dispute resolution system, if there’s a way for me to do that without it being interpreted as continuing the R&I conflict. I am open to advice from arbitrators about whether that’s possible or not, and if ArbCom decides that it isn’t, I’ll stay out of discussions about this from now on. Maunus has offered to become my mentor, which is something else I’m willing to accept if ArbCom decides it’s appropriate. However, I think a site-ban is obviously excessive here. I’m currently in the middle of a major expansion of the <a href="/wiki/William_Beebe" title="William Beebe">William Beebe</a> article, Ferahgo (who would presumably also be covered by a site-ban, due to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SHARE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SHARE">WP:SHARE</a>) is midway through writing an article about Gerhard Heilmann’s book <i><a href="/wiki/The_Origin_of_Birds_(book)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Origin of Birds (book)">The Origin of Birds</a></i>, and we are essentially the only editors working on these articles. If we get site-banned, both of these articles would have to remain indefinitely in their current half-finished state. --<a href="/wiki/User:Captain_Occam" title="User:Captain Occam">Captain Occam</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Captain_Occam" title="User talk:Captain Occam">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T18:17:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:17, 6 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T18:17:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T18:17:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"></span> </p> <dl><dt><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T22:57:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"></span>Response to SirFozzie</dt> <dd>I would really appreciate some guidance from ArbCom about what is and isn’t covered by my topic ban in this respect. I was under the impression that I’m allowed to make general comments about how Wikipedia’s dispute resolution process could be improved (as I was doing in Jimbo Wales’ user talk), and that I’m allowed to comment in response when someone else has brought me up by name (as in the case of Slrubenstein’s comments). Although the comments from SLR that I was discussing have been deleted using RevDel, arbitrators should still be able to see them, so I’ll link to them anyway: <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:WeijiBaikeBianji&diff=prev&oldid=411363986">[93]</a> <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:WeijiBaikeBianji&diff=prev&oldid=411385020">[94]</a>. If I was wrong to assume that I’m allowed to do these things, and ArbCom can give me clear instructions about that, then I can agree to refrain from doing them in the future. But it’s important that this be as specific as possible. Just being told that I need to avoid re-fighting past conflicts isn’t going to be as helpful, because that doesn’t tell me what I should do in situations like this one, where I was discussing something that I considered unrelated until other past participants in the R&I case followed me to the discussion and began discussing me elsewhere. --<a href="/wiki/User:Captain_Occam" title="User:Captain Occam">Captain Occam</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Captain_Occam" title="User talk:Captain Occam">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T22:57:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:57, 6 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T22:57:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-06T22:57:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dt><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Captain_Occam-2011-02-13T19:19:00.000Z-Statement_by_Captain_Occam"></span>Response to LHVU</dt> <dd>The reason why I didn’t use the e-mail feature to contact Mr. Wales privately was because my intention posting about it in his user talk was more than just to make sure he noticed my letter.

Please note that the original context of that quote (which I am sure you are aware of) was in response to Occam accusing you of having personal relationships with Arbs (a misperception which you fostered steadily on the R&I talk page). I was in fact telling him that it was <i>not</i> the case so far as I know. So in fact I was not 'tittle-tattling' on you, but rather defending you by defusing one of Occam's more extreme concerns (though with admittedly snide overtones). If you want to complain about my being uncivil I would happily accept that as true: I might produce several dozen diffs in which you say things that sound tremendously like preening to my ear in order to justify the comment (and which would also explain how Occam got bamboozled into thinking you were more tightly connected than you actually are), but even then you'd have a point. but do not make up lies about me.

Comments here should be directed only at the above proposed amendment.} </p> <ul><li><b>comment</b> I don't think that topic bans imposed at wikipedia extend to other public news media - I think that censoring someone because of participating in the public debate about wikipedia would be a bad move, and promote a kind of wikipedia community we don't want. People should be allowed to discuss their wiki experiences, also the bad ones, in other venues without that having any bearings on their editing. However, the appeal to Jimbo was clearly a bad move on the part of Captain Occam and does suggest that he is having more than a little trouble dropping the issue here on wikipedia. I think Mathsci is als inflaming the issue and that a more becoming mode of action for him would have been to simply leave it alone, since Occam's communication with Jimbo is not really harming anyone and is unlikely to have any effect on the particular issues covered by the R&I topic ban. I think an indef ban is excessive if Captain Occam recognizes having been in error and shows a will to proceed to become a valuable editor in other venues as he is currently showing good progress towards (e.g. at <a href="/w/index.php?title=William_Beebee&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="William Beebee (page does not exist)">William Beebee</a>). <a href="/wiki/User:Maunus" title="User:Maunus">·Maunus·<span class="Unicode">ƛ</span>·</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Maunus-2011-02-06T16:32:00.000Z-Statement_by_other_editor_2" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:32, 6 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Maunus-2011-02-06T16:32:00.000Z-Statement_by_other_editor_2"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Maunus-2011-02-06T16:32:00.000Z-Statement_by_other_editor_2"></span></li></ul> <ul><li><b><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Zarboublian-2011-02-06T20:36:00.000Z-Maunus-2011-02-06T16:32:00.000Z"></span>Comment</b> This accusation must be supported by diffs.

Other thoughts?<br>@Captain Occam. In its simplest interpretation, the <a class="external text" href="https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement/Archive75#Captain_Occam">amended restriction</a> requires you to disengage completely both directly and indirectly from the topic ("including user talk pages"), unless specifically responding to others ("They are free to respond at noticeboards whenever their own editing is mentioned"). This means it prevents you making even coded or oblique references. If you wish to avoid further sanction, perhaps the safest way for you to interpret how this applies to you is to ask yourself before you make an action/edit how you would perceive the same edit/action if it had been made by a topic-banned adversary of yours. If you conclude that such an action/edit of theirs arguably breaches the restriction, don't make a similar one yourself.<br>@Mathsci. I expressed the hope in the motion lifting the topic restriction that you'd walk away entirely from R&I-related issues. This is because I do not believe that participants in cases are the best people to push for enforcement as it only opens old wounds (as has happened here). If another editor's conduct is egregious enough, it will be noted by other - less involved - editors, who can initiate appropriate action. That advice still stands and I urge you to follow it.<br>@Ludwigs: I'm surprised by the tone of your comments and must ask you be to be more circumspect.<br> <a href="/wiki/User:Roger_Davies" title="User:Roger Davies"><span style="color:maroon; font-variant:small-caps"><b>Roger</b></span></a> <sup><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Roger_Davies" title="User talk:Roger Davies"><b>talk</b></a></sup> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment/Archive_51#c-Roger_Davies-2011-02-12T06:40:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_8" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">06:40, 12 February 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Roger_Davies-2011-02-12T06:40:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_8"><!--__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Roger_Davies-2011-02-12T06:40:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_8"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Risker-2011-02-13T07:30:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion_8"></span>Agree completely with Roger Davies. <i>ALL</i> of you need to step away from this topic area in any way, shape or form.
