3693:'The proposed work group'. Now that the proposal for this has been fleshed out a little more, I can see some merit in such a body. However, as far as I can tell, this body is in effect a 'faster ArbCom for EE only'. Perhaps creation of such a body (bodies...) is the inevitable future, as Wiki grows and number of cases presented at ArbCom overwhelms the current team (which appears to be the issue, judging from this very case). However, there are many procedural questions that must be addressed. How many members would this 'EE ArbCom' have? How would they be elected? Who could vote in elections (w/out restrictions, the biggest countries with most editors would get most seats, while small states like the Baltics would not be represented at all...)? What about "neutral" members from other parts of the world (I like the idea of having ArbCom members in the group, but they seem to be overworked already, so...)? Should they, perhaps, form a majority? What are the competences of this new board - Irpen suggested reliability, something which is heavily content-related and it is my understanding something which the normal ArbCom tried to avoid. Would the decisions of the EE ArbCom be appeallable by the normal ArbCom or vice-versa? Would it have the power to block or ban? And those are just a few questions off the top of my head. On the other end lies of course the simple solution of revitalizing the EE noticeboard and trying to hold discussions there, preferably with input from ArbCom or some other body - but this solution also has many questions marks as to its feasibility. 120:...). Then the ANI justice will kick in - an admin will review the case and make a decision. Admins, however, vastly differ in their experience and handling of such a cases, and as much as I respect my fellow co-admins I don't think trusting ANI to rule on a complex issue like this is the best idea. Sure, it's better then ignoring the problem (hence why this avenue was tried in the past, by myself included) - but it would be much better to have ArbCom issue some user conduct statements, probations, limitations, paroles and so on based on current, relativly comprehensive evidence, rather than to have random ANI decisions issued in the future based on some tiny fragment of the future evidence. By adopting the 'big hammer' solution ArbCom would in fact be 'sending this back to a lower court' (ANI); we have tried this in the past, and I believe nobody was happy with the result. Even worse, a random ANI judgement may turn out to be a block of some editors - and I don't think either party in this ArbCom has went as far as to ask for the other to be outright blocked, we may have our (sometimes big) differences but we (I hope) respect many for each other's contributions (and with one example I noted in my evidence, all involved editors have many great and uncontroversial edits to non-controversial content areas). 3073:. The article was Featured only days ago, but during the FAC some editors - like myself - were subject to uncivil comments and accusations (see link above). Despite that we were able to improve the article and get community consensus for the Featured status, but the uncivil remarks, which were the sole contribution of several editors, were not helping. As an author of 20 FAs, I can assure you we can deal with content - providing reliable refs and copyeditng the articles for NPOV is not a problem. The problem is having to face a near-constant torrent of bad faith accusations, by editors who try to insert POVed fragments, fail to provide reliable sources, and resort to personal attacks in attempt to vent frustration or perhaps even aiming to chase their opponents away from certain articles (or from the project itself). A simple civility parole, imposed on certain editors (or all, personally I believe all editors on Knowledge (XXG) should be subject to civility parole, but that's a topic for another day) would solve the problem immediately. As for the Eastern European Working Group, as I wrote above, such an idea has been 2162:
least, nothing specific) and without that knowledge we will continue our wrongdoing. I further believe that the same applies to all other editors, including you (unless you can clearly state when you have 'crossed the line' and promise you will not do so in the future). Thus, the 'amnesty' will not change the behavior of a single editor involved in this case, and we will end up exactly where we started (particularly as recent diffs in workshop shows, both sides are unhappy with continuing behavior of the other sides up to and including the most recent days). PS. I agree that prevention is better then punishment, and this is why I have repeatedly asked for a civility parole to be placed on editors who have been shown to be incivil. Such users will be shown diffs of their past incivil behavior and warned that future repetition will be penalized. Or do you believe this would not work and would like to suggest a better solution?--

WP:THISandTHAT and looking the other way or even directly encouraging forum shopping, all we do is praise the greater hypocrite or the more skilled warrior with the biggest smile on his face. I don't support personal attacks or incivility but I urge the arbcom to not confuse the very few cases where the incivility in itself is indeed the core problem with the majority of these conflict which are the content disputes aggravated by the wrong methods of resolution and, especially, by the campaigns being run both openly on- and secretly off-wiki. The civility issues, if any, have nothing to do either with the true problem or with the solution that would actually help end it. ArbCom have seen plenty of the hypocritical arguments and will hopefully not buy into this one.
936:"With the treatment of the litauisch Polish relations during World War 2 took now the idea of the independence fight completely Litauens the first place, whereby it was the goal to discredit the activities of the Armija Krajowa." "When Litauen 1994 expressed the desire, NATO to step - and later also the European Union - the task resulted to justify the historical connections to the western democracies ideologically." "one tried to play the litauischen relations down with Hitler Germany and to represent the Armija Krajowa in the Vilniusgebiet at the same time as Kollaborateurin of the Germans" "course of the new interpretation of the litauisch Polish conflict in the cultural memory becomes this topic also object of the memory politics". 1058:
If I remember correctly there were presented and conflicting views regarding AK. As it looks Nikžentaitis used findings of this book to this paper as well. This impression strengthens and Nikžentaitis concluding remarks, when speaking about Polish view “Completely silent and about Armia Krajowa’s relationships with occupying German authority”. And yes P.P. Arūnas Bubnys respected Lithuanian historian, sadly his findings you in different occasions removed as “preposterous claim”, “controversial statements”. It is much telling pattern of editing – when findings suits to certain Polish POV findings became good, then not – it is become unreliable. And no, Piotrus,
2556:
obstruction, without bitter conflicts and what we all already wrote is the best proof of it. I am sure there is an editor or two in most every EE nation that has the respect of their compatriot community and would, at the same time, not be too much opposed by the members of other EE communities (perhaps even supported but this may be too much to ask for too many.) There are also some non-EE editors who are interested and familiar with the context. Their participation would be most welcome as well. We can work out the specifics together but we need a Work Group composed of respected editors who are familiar with the problems, their history and the main players.
1816:. Anyway, I agree with Ghirla that a remedy that would delay and delegate the responsibility for future action is rather pointless, not only because I doubt the effectiveness of ANI decisions, which will indeed be taken by administrators unfamiliar with that matter, but also because this ArbCom has all the evidence and tools needed to end this right here, right now. I have asked before and I am asking again: we (all sides...) have listed in evidence and workshop issues that concern us (a relatively small number of editors); ArbCom should rule if they are true or not. Have I been forum shopping, baiting, stalking, fueling revert wars, and so on or 179:
proposed principles here and in workshop). General guidelines however have not helped in the past (or else we wouldn't be here). Only specific findings and possible remedies about particular users against whom evidence has been presented in this ArbCom (and yes, this includes my person) can in my view change something. And there is no need for any timeconsuming investigation of many editors, I believe both parties made it clear who they want the ruling to concern, both sides presented what they believe is comprehensive evidence against those editors, and this involves only several individuals - me, MK, Dr. Dan and Ghirla if I count correctly).--
2281:, I do not know which actions of Okinčic were “aggressive”, but he is not the only one with critical opinion regarding these Polish nationalistic newspapers, for instance autonomous watchdog established that Kurier Wileński was promoting ethnic hatred. So Okinčic criticism regarding these newspapers is concurred. Regarding you question about person name, why I use his name as Okinčic. Because having polish ethnicity elements, not makes your name as Polish by default and because such name is written in this official LRS biography, and because such name is used in his advocacy data, and because such name is in his Lithuanian passport, and yes, 2532:
will then write it, may I ask? Please note the amount of the amazing content we, the East Europeans are creating. And note who writes most of it? The ones most hated by their opponents are among the best content writers: Ghirla, Halibutt, M.K., Piotrus... The "there are no irreplaceable editors" argument, while correct, does not apply either. The community of WP editors is very representative of the RL community, from what I can tell. If we manage to radicalize the current editors further, ban them or drive them away, the new editors that will (hopefully) come would not be much different. And we are not talking about the bad seeds here.
3113:
comments are not acceptable. I was not aware of this one - I didn't read it, as it was not addressed to me; anyway it dates before the commend he was warned about and I hope he will change his behavior. That said, please note that his incivility was only an emulation of what you started on the relevant pages. As the proverb goes: "You reap what you saw". If you'd not have accused various editors, him including, of conspiracy and such, he would have no need to reply in kind to you, now, would he? So please: be more civil with your future posts, and I am sure you will find that much fewer people have complains about your behavior.--
3025:, Piotrus recently took up this policy as a shield to fend off any implication that his behaviour has been less than appropriate. Not that I really mind this approach, given that the policy expressedly identifies "taunting", "racial slurs", and "calling for bans or blocks" as disruptive. There is plenty of evidence on Workshop that Piotrus is the only person driving contributors from Knowledge (XXG) in connection with this case. While these issues are real and deplorable, the core problems are POV-pushing, tendentious editing, forum shopping, and routine removal of references. 2630:. Unfortunately, not enough editors were interested in this project to make it work, and I don't see how we can fix that crucial problem - i.e force the people to use this board to discuss their issues. The only solution I can see if closing current EE regional noticeboards, or forcing all editors to double post issues involving 2+ countries from that region to the noticeboard. If we do so, ArbCom monitoring of that board to ensure no personal attacks and hostile threads develop is crucial - or otherwise the board will be dominated by threads like 3793:. And the mentioned Eastern noticeboard. As many - even controversial - articles related to EE get GACed and FACed, I can personally attest with many dozens of example that our conflicts don't prevent creation of good content. The problem is that along the way, much wikistress is caused by certain users uncivility, causing certain editors to limit their contributions or withdraw. A task force that could somehow control this uncivility, possibly through quick mediation ending with blocks if needed, may be helpful; anything else - is pointless.-- 2523:
that is more crafty in forum shopping and more unscrupulous in how low one is allowed to act. Users who help solve these conflicts need to be familiar with their context, the participants, preferably have their trust and know exactly what is going on rather than be clueless, eager and loving to use the block button and be presented with only one side of the story conveniently concocted by the forum shoppers while the other side does not have a chance to respond. And even if given a chance, how would another series of hurtful blocks help?
262:
parties in this case related to areas of EE that had not attracted attention of editors from this area, because for many this is still a local issue: a Polish-Lithuanian dispute with recent Russian (and Ukrainian/Belarusian) flavourings - and I am not even sure if we can say the Lithuanian side is represented, as almost all of the comments from Lithuanian side come from a single editor (and further, Russian side is divided, see outside statements). It is my view that this case can do some good if viewed on the level of the
3016:
nationalist POV with reliable sources, they start running from WP:ANI to WP:AN to WP:AN3 to WP:PAIN submitting fraudulent reports of incivility, "vandal encouragement", and whatnot to have their opponents eliminated. Knowledge (XXG) should develop a mechanism to deal with this sort of disruption. I don't believe that a teenage admin monitoring WP:ANI may instantly investigate and offer a ready solution to problems that go back several years. Troll farms of one-purpose nationalist warriors only aggravate the situation.
398:"conduct of various editors active in topics related to Eastern Europe". I'm not surprised that the number of edits combined with the nuances of the related content may seem immense. It does to me. On the other hand, since the case was accepted, it would be good to have at least some indication as to which of the questioned users conduct is found unacceptable. Otherwise, the involved editors will continue to believe that they are doing right, and the only outcome of this RfArb will be the extra bad blood it caused. -- 3031:
leveled against Piotrus, myself, or other long-standing contributors before they are passed to administrators' noticeboards. I'm sure that Alex Bakharev, Balcer, Dahn, DDima, Yury Tarasevich, Olessi, Duja etc. know more about the background for these conflicts than an average ANI admin. As I can see it, there is no connection whatsoever between the proposed working group and the EEnoticeboard or any other national noticeboard abused by ethnic cliques as a tool for canvassing and astroturfing. --
2560:
candidates from most every involved EE community for such group but this is a secondary issue for now. If ArbCom can see that this is something that may actually work, let's give it a try, get the ball rolling and see how it goes. In case of failure, we would end up right where we are but, judging from the current state of affairs of the proposed decision page and the comments above, no better solution is in sight. So, it cannot make things worse. This is as far as the remedies are concerned.
3374:, with the latter being for blocks, sanctions or simply opinions that support one's view. If this is indeed the case (and please see the workshop and decide for yourself), the civility decision will give a boost to such tactics as it would only encourage frivolous incivility accusations used to dupe the unsuspecting non-writing professional "Knowledge (XXG) problem solvers" who just love to hang around WP:ANI and give their eager and uninformed opinions or happily blocking left and right, 221:
near Berlin. Article probation, if extended over so many tens of thousands of articles, would likely be unenforcable, unneeded, and seemingly out-of-the-blue for editors who have never heard of Piotrus, M.K, Irpen, Lysy, et al, nor are regulars in the articles related to this corner of Europe. Do you think narrowing it would accomplish as much, Kirill? Do you, Piotrus and Balcer (and anyone else), think that would be a more manageable extent?
207:. One look should make clear just how much Knowledge (XXG) content would be affected if all articles somehow connected to this area are to be placed under general probation (this would include all articles connected to Germany and Russia, for example). Clearly there will be a large number of editors that will be affected, having never heard of this Arbcom and thus unable to express their views on this matter that will strongly impact them. 3574:
two in most every EE nation that has the respect of their compatriots and would, at the same time, not be too much opposed by the members of other EE communities (perhaps even supported but this may be too much to ask for too many.) There are also some non-EE editors who are interested and familiar with the context. Their participation would be most welcome as well. We should work out the details, perhaps together with the ArbCom.
112:). Without such comments, how can I - or any other involved editor - know if we did right or wrong, and learn from any past mistakes? A general amnesty will leave all sides (who have likely put days into preparing their statements and evidence) just as they were, with belief in their righteousness, and in a matter of weeks, if not days, we will find ourselves in need of enforcing the second part of the 'big hammer' solution. 104:
been justified in their edits and behaviour, and it is the other side(s) that had wronged them. If they are not told clearly, by a neutral body such as ArbCom, that they have erred, they will not change their behaviour. Further, those editors who have been accused of wrongdoing by others likely feel that they deserve a 'certificate of good standing' from ArbCom (a statement refuting their opponents claims, akin to

removal, which is essentially what User:M.K. did). The proposed ruling would clearly indicate that such practices are not acceptable. We are not obliged to cite every last extremist scholar, no matter how minor, especially since citing some particularly controversial people is hugely counterproductive and makes effective multinational collaboration in writing about contentious subjects almost impossible.

ours. Singling out a specific article for probation is feasible, singling out a general area with thousands of articles and thousands of editors unaware of this ArbCom may be creating a precedent we should likely avoid. Second, as I explained in my previous para, because parties will likely continue to act as they had we will soon find one or the other reported at ANI (and incidentally note that

baiting on the part of his more experienced opponents. He makes useful mainspace contributions, too. Either there is a "general amnesty", or we single out a person that brought Piotr's behaviour to light and punish him for that. Now it appears as an oblique approval and encouragement of Piotr's frequently aggressive and bullying behaviour by David Gerard and his circle. Please reconsider. --
3823:
great detail in my message above. This talk is the problem rather than the solution as invoking it without reason allows Piotrus, who is himself not a civility model, btw, to circumvent real issues. When the civility problems amount to disruption, there are means already to solve these problems. The civility does not consist only of selecting the nice words to say nasty things, btw. --
108:). Speaking for myself, I'd like ArbCom to comment on whether my past actions (in a reasonable timeframe) had been justified or not, and whether my evidence of others wrongdoing is justified or not. I am sure that others (and please note I am not the party that started this ArbCom) want the same answers about their character/actions and those of their opponents (see also comments 3668:, where in the short 'update' part I outlined how the grievances brought by all sides of this ArbCom arose in a simple ongoing pattern, and what must be done to put an end to this vicious cycle. I am disappointed no ArbCom member has commented there - although given that so far only two ArbCom members have comment on this long page on two separate occasions, I am not surprised. 1170:"findings". You also should familiarize yourself how book reviews looks like. Regarding your query of ultra nationalistic, ok lets see that Presidents adviser, Signatory of Act of Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania, member of various Lithuanian-Polish councils and yeah a Pole, Česlav Okinčicas, states - he stated about Nasza Gazeta that this "newspaper" 2237:), they are not constructive either and are instrumental in escalating the conflict by involving a number of new participants to divert the attention of your opponents from productive mainspace editing. These particular tricks need to be identified. For instance, is it appropriate to maintain attack pages outside English Knowledge (XXG) where you refer to 1820:? Have M.K., Dr. Dan or Ghirlandajo been disruptive or has their behavior been within acceptable norms? Should any editor in particular be warned or placed on civility or revert parole? Those are simple questions, concerning several editors, with ample evidence presented and workshop ideas built around them, for ArbCom to address them and solve this NOW.-- 408:
articles in this area would be harmful both to his morale and for Lithuania-related content. I hope that the proposed warning and request to seek mentorship (both suggested in the workshop) would be sufficient as a remedy. Personally, while I complained about his conduct and aggressive attitude, I would not like to see M.K banned. --

relevant (and sincere) to solving this mess as those other examples. If you have doubts on whether civility by itself is the issue here, please join the workshop, read the relevant FoF's, and by all means click on each of the diffs and see the matter for yourself (the workshop being undeservedly ignored by the arbitrators).
866:. I was hoping that the best approach to comments that were up for about 5 minutes would be to pass over them in silence to avoid causing any discomfort to Novickas, but now that you have dragged them prominently into the open, I apologized to clear the air. We all make mistakes, let's not dwell on this one any further. 986:. As can be seen, Alvydas Nikzentaitis is certainly not supporting KG point of view, instead he is showing how some historical works in Lithuania have been hijacked by the demands of then-current politics to support certain POV (discrediting AK). Hardly an endorsement of KG views - but a valuable reference indeed.-- 2569:

We need to have meaningful and congruent FoF and principles sections in the final decision of this case.
3354:
looked like sudden conversions, because the same people had had long arguments against the "copyright paranoia" when their favored images were questioned. Some editors even went so far as to nominate particular free image tags for deletion as non-compliant or challenging rock-solid fairuse rationales.

Diff 76 is not given in its own right. It is given as a part of the series of diffs showing the same thing, inciting others to complain against Piotrus' opponents demonstrating a long term trend.

Every single editor who voiced his opinion on the matter agreed that if the case is closed without decision (and the current "decision" is as good as none), it would make matters worse. I urge arbitrators to study the case, rule on the issues and try to get this right rather than "get rid of it." The

Thus, I am not talking about about a general "noticeboard" but a workgroup consisting of editors who will sort out such future disputes quickly and efficiently.

and no one argues with that. But the question we have to ask ourselves is what we can do to fix this corner of the Knowledge (XXG).

Are you afraid of the truth? Your beloved Red Army and NKVD commited several atrocities in Polish Kresy in 1939 and then, in the period 1939-1941 and 1944-1945. This article does not even mention them, to appease such individuals as you I guess. Anyway, personal slandering will not change history and

Piotrus, I believe that the working group implies something fundamentally different from a trivial noticeboard. Hopefully Irpen will flesh out his proposal.

That nations in conflict, with tangled histories and historical animosity, would generate content disputes at Knowledge (XXG) is not news and Eastern European editors are hardly to blame for this.
2161:
Consider this: several editors here (myself included, and see Lysy's and Balcer's comments above) don't believe we can change our behavior until a neutral party (i.e. ArbCom) clearly tells us what we have done wrong. In lack of such explanation, we are free to assume we have done nothing wrong (or at

I believe that every involved editor has occasionally crossed the line, but in most cases transgressions have been motivated by the controversial nature of the subject, rather than by malice aforethought. Given these circumstances, I would like to see the present case result in prevention rather than

I would be grateful to the Arbitrators if they specified what is so strikingly different between my edits and those of Piotrus, that Polish view edits are either sanctioned or amnestied, while Lithuanian view edits are singled out as disruptive and warranting a year-long ban. Thank you a lot for your

I was asked to comment.

For other matters, he represents

Eastern Europe is, of course, only one of several highly contentious areas in the project; but I think it's somewhat special because of the extreme length of the disputes (e.g. the Danzig issue), often involving the same participants year after year.

Amnesty. Setting aside the need to define 'good standing' (which needs to be clarified if this proposal is further discussed), I would like to draw your attention to some specifics of this case.

Interesting how you could not stop yourself from using a diff over one year old to argue your point. If that is one thing which this arbcom puts an end to, I will be happy. Let's move on a little bit, and quit worrying who did what to whom in 2005 and 2006. This amnesty ruling is beginning to look

Are editors reprimanded for removing of the sourced info? Or for adding dubious info sourced to some nationalist article in tygodnik?

You effectively endorsed Tymek's revolting allegation by the comment "I don't see much difference between "beloved NKVD" and "Polish yes-men and their propaganda", which is apples and oranges, so to speak. I have nothing in common with such editors as Molobo or Tymek, and I don't want to be compared

Tymek, unfortunately, seems - in my opinion - to use the same uncivil language and style as you do (I don't see much difference between "beloved NKVD" and "Polish yes-men and their propaganda").

Piotrus, you still expect people to stop discussing your edits and applaud as you insert POV into articles? Knowledge (XXG) is not about that. The concept of civility refers to discussions of personalities rather than content, while the epithets like "provocative edits" and "mind-boggling POV" refer

This has been my main problem with Piotrus, and the proposed remedies make things so much worse.

Ghirla named some names above. I think those are good candidates. If ArbCom can see that this is something that may actually work, let's give it a try, get the ball rolling and see how it goes. In case of failure, we would end up right where we are, but, judging from the current state of affairs of
3357:
In my opinion, the BLP issues invoked here are often yet another strawman, and another stalking horse, as they tend to get raised only in the articles about politicians that some like (or dislike) and authors whose cited books one side wants to impeach. The civility talk in this ArbCom is about as
3353:
Civility is not the only tool applied frivolously. People in these disputes also tried to invoke other policies. For example, they would stretch 'copyright' arguments past the breaking point to try to censure the images in articles that they found unflattering to their version of the content. These

All of the above applies in equal measure to you. Tymek, infortunately, seems - in my opinion - to use the same uncivil language and style as you do, Piotrus. He is not the only Polish editor who emulates your objectionable editing techniques. It seems that, by your example, discussing our articles
3046:
Thanks Irpen for your thoughtful remarks. I believe they contain many relevant insights. I agree that the root cause of the problems here is content disputes not incivility. This explains ArbCom's inability to be of much help in resolving these issues — ArbCom does not have (nor should it have) the

Irpen's proposal to set up an above-the-battle body for investigation of these claims - the Eastern European Working Group - deserves some consideration. If sanctioned by the ArbCom decision, the group may comprise trusted members of each national community and opine on the propriety of accusations
2568:
As for the finding of fact, that the discussion and the proposed decision pages are being stalled and nothing is happening is unacceptable. That only one or two ArbCom members tops participate in the workshop does not help matter either. This is not what we expected from our Arbcom members when we

Remember, we are dealing with the real people here. Editors, who love their countries, know their histories and are immensely committed to the Knowledge (XXG). You are not dealing with trolls or problem editors here at least for the most part. Letting the heads roll may be tempting but what will be
2448:
That all (not one or even two or three but ALL) sides were POV-pushing, at least to some degree, is something ArbCom seem to agree here. Trying to push questionable sources that support one's own POV and attack the sources that support the opposite POV has become commonplace. This and other similar

I don't believe that incivility is the issue that engendered this case. POV-pushing, tendentious editing, forum shopping, routine removal of references - these are the issues that induced M.K. to launch the request. I can readily see your interest in deflecting the discussion, but that is not going

If anyone can show instances where Garšva is quoted using the kind of language that Lysy mentions above, then please, let us all see them. Also, if controversial = counterproductive and should be removed and/or sanctioned, as per Balcer, many WP projects would not have come to their current state.

I might be wrong, but most o them simply do not work, and one is (the one from tygodnk) written in quite and insulting tone against renowned Lithuanian historians. And these are used as an evidence against Garšva, and furthermore against M.K. You might check them yourself, and say your opinion. Let

Quite simply I have no energy left to once more go over all the questions that you presented. Furthermore, in any discussion I am under no obligation to address every issue that the person I am discussing with raises. If you don't get an answer, accept it and let it go. If you have a question of

Further, who is and who is not subjected to the delayed punishment? Only MK? Members of the ArbCom did not indicate at the workshop which accusations they find of merit and which are groundless. There was no allegation of any misconduct against some users at all. You were not accused for anything.

One of the things which buried this arbcom's chances of any resolution was the sheer volume of accusations, ranging over the whole of the past two years. Let's have a fresh start, and over the next few months watch like hawks the parties we think are acting inappropriately. Then, if necessary, a

As a closing remark, I want to thank Irpen for his 'proposed work group' idea; it's always pleasant to see constructive solutions - however I'd like to stress that such a workgroup will not solve our problems quickly (if ever agreed upon, it will take weeks if not months to establish). But as many

Sometimes this results in a couple of foolish blocks, and this is where things get really out of hand. The issues that arise here are by far better addressed if dealt by a single dedicated group composed of the respected and cool-headed editors who are familiar with the problems, the subjects, the

I wonder if accusing other editors of "derailing discussions of mind-boggling POV" and "provocative edits" (plus other accusations in this post, and its general tone) is in line with our policies (WP:CIV, etc.)? If the ArbCom will not react to this, I am assuming that flinging of such accusations,
1897:
It's not the first time that you derail discussions of mind-boggling POV that is present in your edits by attempting to cast Knowledge (XXG) as a contest in wikilove. Since you, Balcer, Lysy and other Polish editors prefer to discuss "article content" via instant messaging agents, I have no say in

I'd like to second this request, asking the Arbitrators to show how I've behaved inappropriately for the same reasons. I'd also like to improve and I would very much like to know which of the accusations levied against me have been deemed correct by the ArbCom. On a related note, I'd also add that

I have not followed the edits of MK very closely, but he appears to be the least disruptive party to the arbitration. There is nothing in his behaviour that merits a one-year ban, especially given the stressful background of the never-ending Polish-Lithuanian conflict peppered with a heavy dose of

with that, Piotrus claimed to have done so "to discuss articles." How believable is that IM is good to use for articles' discussion rather than requesting a hand in reverting, a "vote" in RfD, FAC, RM or RfAdm when needed is left to others to decide. At least we saw on many occasions how new (and

A counter-proposal: actively recruit more editors to these projects. Use some rhetoric to the effect that altho the situation is not as dire as that of the Balkans in the 1990s, we can all understand complex issues if we make the effort, and that it's worth our time and energy. Novickas 16:45, 20

Just a narrow comment, I don't see a proposed workgroup "a faster ArbCom for EE only". When the Arbcom decides that it can't handle the case load, it may initiate circuit courts but I am not proposing anything that would be of any power to kick butts, the power that ArbCom has. This group cannot

Judging by lack of response to my request on the workshop talk page, the answer is obvious: because Piotrus has a free pass from David Gerard. Or because the Polish POV is inherently correct, while the Lithuanian POV is false. Since no other arguments have been presented, we have to go with this
1337:
Briefly: singling out M.K. only for findings and remedy is not an optimal solution (even if it was him who started this ArbCom); I do agree here with Kirill that "that singling out any particular" is not worthwile: but instead of dropping that line of enquiry, per my previous comments, I instead

Excuse me for being frank, but it would sound just as bad :) Seriously: Germany is not in EE (technicality, but note practical absence of comments from that part of the world in this ArbCom), and for any 'big scope case' very few users are even aware of it: I know there are grieviances involving

Ban from a year from Eastern European topics? That's fucking ridicilous. Besides the fact that nobody involved in this arbcom deserves a ban, it's just plain stupid to ban someone from contributing to his favorite topic and sole reason being on Knowledge (XXG). MK has very good contributions to

As you did not ask me any direct question in your post (at least none that I have any authority to address since I am not a member of Arbcom), why do you demand an answer? How am I supposed to know whether MK , you or anybody else are under watch? Anyway, am I on trial here? Maybe I was just

I second Ghirla and Piotrus on that the proposed "Amnesty and Probation" solution does not really seem satisfactory. It would in fact seem a euphemistic way of admitting that the ArbCom was not able to handle the case because of its scope which, as I understand it, could be vaguely defined as

Here is an item pertaining to Garšva's standing as a historian. He was invited to participate in a 1999 seminar discussing Polish-Lithuanian history issues, including Armija Krajova, relating to the period 1939-1945. This seminar was sponsored by the Lithuanian Genocide and Resistance Center

Lets work out (preferably together with the ArbCom) such group and have it develop its procedures, see how its first solutions would work out, see how it all works. I'd emphasize that this is not an iron-clad proposal but rather an ad-hoc solution, but it may actually work. I could name the
