Behaviour on this page: Arbitration case pages exist to assist the Arbitration Committee in arriving at a fair, well-informed decision. You are required to act with appropriate decorum during this case. While grievances must often be aired during a case, you are expected to air them without being rude or hostile, and to respond calmly to allegations against you. Accusations of misbehaviour posted in this case must be proven with clear evidence (and otherwise not made at all). Editors who conduct themselves inappropriately during a case may be sanctioned by an arbitrator or clerk, without further warning, by being banned from further participation in the case, or being blocked altogether. Personal attacks against other users, including arbitrators or clerks, will be met with sanctions. Behaviour during a case may also be considered by the committee in arriving at a final decision.
To update this listing, edit this template and scroll down until you find the right list of arbitrators. If updates to this listing do not immediately show, try purging the cache.

moved to the workshop page (clerks feel free to remove this section if you like)
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
ScottishFinnishRadish's comment that "Articles are created as quickly as possible [because] consensus is needed to change the title once the article is created" struck me. Perhaps this has been suggested, and/or it's wrong for me to comment; I took this to be a decent place for a non-party comment, but if a clerk or arb feels this should be moved onto the Workshop page itself or removed, let me know:
Articles about events in places (in this topic area) shall be named—or if created under another name, moved to—"[Place] event of [date]" until consensus is reached for another title.
Perhaps someone can improve on this. The idea is that an article about a P/I-related attack / defense / rescue / massacre at Smithville will be "Smithville event of 2024" (or "...December 2024", "...6 December 2024", depending on how many events must be disambiguated) until there is consensus for another title. Disagreement over place ('Smithville' vs 'Smithville School / Refugee Camp / Kibbutz') could be handled by preferring the more general title. (I regard the stupidness of "X event of Y" names as a feature, nagging people to move the article to a real title, not just leave the placeholder in place indefinitely.) This could be applied to any such articles for which there's never been a consensus on what to title them that were created since the start of the current conflict, the start of the overall conflict, or the closure of this case. -sche (talk) 22:40, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241206224000","author":"-sche","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c--sche-20241206224000-Idea_regarding_titles_of_articles_about_events","replies":["c-HouseBlaster-20241206235100--sche-20241206224000"]}}-->

What to do with off-site attention?
There has been a lot of attention given to "tech for Palestine", however, this last year a lot of (mostly critical) attention is given to Wikipedia by pro-israeli twitter-accounts, blogs and even newspapers. I note that lots of "newish" editors turn up whenever an article is discussed externally eg, at Zionism, Gaza genocide. Any thoughts about how to handle that?

One thing that I noticed when going over discussions about PIA sockpuppets is that there's a lot of blurriness between them (especially when it comes to sockpuppet families attributed to Icewhiz.) I am wondering if it could be worth creating a dedicated page for tracking sockpuppetry or possible sockpuppetry within the PIA topic area, where frequent sockmasters in the area could be noted down to make it easier to figure out who someone is, and possible sockpuppets whose potential sockmaster is unclear could be brought to the attention of people who are familiar with them to examine for behavioral links. I haven't created a specific proposal yet because I'm not quite sure what this would look like or if it is something that ought / needs to go through ArbCom at all, and wanted to see what other people thought first. --Aquillion (talk) 17:56, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241219175600","author":"Aquillion","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Aquillion-20241219175600-Creating_CTOP-specific_sockpuppet_tracking_pages.","replies":["c-Bluethricecreamman-20241219185100-Aquillion-20241219175600"]}}-->

The following is an examination of how disputes are resolved, to try to spark ideas for remedies that can improve how decisions are made for complex disputes. I've placed it on the talk page as it is not an analysis of evidence.
Typically the following general process is followed in the real world to resolve disputes:
Breakdown step: break down the question to be resolved into smaller, more manageable questions, whose answers will lead to resolving the main question. This can include questions on how to evaluate the available options.
Determination step: there are three common ways to determine the answers:
Mutual agreement: the involved parties work through each question and reach agreement on which answer has the best case.
Decision-maker: a person/group is delegated to hear arguments from the involved parties, working through each question and deciding which answer has the best case.
Voting: the involved parties vote on the answer for each question.
The former mediation process implemented by the mediation committee essentially did the breakdown and determination steps through mediation. As I discussed previously during the RfC that led to its shutdown, though, it doesn't scale well to handle disputes amongst a lot of people. It also suffered from the same problem that all English Wikipedia discussions have: the volunteer nature of Wikipedia means it's practically impossible to have sustained participation over an extended period of time. This leads to a shifting set of involved participants, and progress stalls.
The default process for most disputes is a unmoderated version of the breakdown and determination steps, but without anyone guiding the process to work systematically through key questions. Thus how much progress is made depends highly on the cooperation of the participants. Many participants don't want to spend their limited available time to work through the related issues one by one; they want to be able to drop off their opinions all at once and let someone else work through the expressed viewpoints. This focus on individual users results in opponents responding to each individual separately, which greatly expands the amount of discussion and increases the threshold for ongoing participation. This leads to more disengagement, further decreasing cooperation.
Given the reality that processes requiring sustained participation tend to get stuck as the dispute gets more complicated, some form of delegation may be needed to resolve complex disputes. For example, the involved parties could agree upon a person/group to which the decisions at the determination step are delegated. Depending on the degree of ongoing involvement desired, they can completely delegate the decision to the person/group (leaving them to make the decision by mutual agreement through discussion), or they can present their arguments to the person/group (the decision-maker approach).
I appreciate that delegation is an approach that many editors dislike. But the community has tried for years to make large-scale discussions with ever-changing participants work, and they just don't. I understand that this moves the collaboration problem to how delegates are chosen, which I don't know how to resolve. My instinct is that this problem should be more manageable than the original complex content dispute, but I know there are problems with a delegation approach, and historically many editors have felt those problems are more significant than the problems with the current content dispute resolution process for complex cases. isaacl (talk) 01:05, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241221010500","author":"Isaacl","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Isaacl-20241221010500-Analysis_of_content_dispute_resolution_process","replies":["c-AndreJustAndre-20241221011400-Isaacl-20241221010500","c-Chess-20241221054000-Isaacl-20241221010500"]}}-->
I'm a fan of the idea of delegation and representation. I do think when we had medcom/medcabal, association of member's advocates, and so on, dispute resolution had a structure with some more moderation that was helpful. Things go a lot more smoothly with a filter and some amount of a lid. Practically speaking though I don't know what it means for today; as you point out, it doesn't scale and had other problems - inactivity, limitations inherent in the lack of authority and voluntariness of the process, and systemic problems that led to poor outcomes much of the time.

The place I'm doing that is Draft:Manual of Style/Israel- and Palestine-related articles, where I'm adding principles that are helpful in resolving content disputes in the area.

@Isaacl: I agree with centralizing discussion on more abstract questions about principles, which can be cited in content disputes. I don't think we need a formal delegation process. Having a central board that focuses on the breakdown step will likely cause editors to self-select, since not all editors want to craft policies.

I am very concerned that information with respect to Palestinians being native or indigenous keep getting removed. This is currently happening in Palestinians. I'm not saying anyone currently there is a sock. But this seems to be the type of information that has been targeted before, sometimes in pairs: change by Owenglyndur 13 June 2024change by ABHammad 14 June 2024.
I am thinking of a 1RR or even 3RR exception for this type of issue. But I am not putting into project page yet, as I am still trying to flesh it out. Maybe 1RR or 3RR exceptions could be an additional admin tool. Administrators handling cases at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations can also place 1RR or 3RR exceptions on certain pages or on certain content in a page, based on behavioral evidence? The content with these type of exceptions can be changed through various forms of content dispute resolution.
I am also concerned about a potential long-term campaign of attrition. If majority or all of "the regulars" get blocked, the socks can then easily out-revert rest of us, especially if they come in multiples. And there won't be people giving lengthy and detailed and time consuming behavioral evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations. Of course this is not a pass for any of "the regulars" to ignore Wikipedia policies and guidelines, but I am concerned about the long-term abuse.
As a side note, there are lots of sources on this ([1] and Talk:Palestinians#Sources).

Maybe if the long-term abuse is shown at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations, and if there is a community consensus (such as one established through an RfC), these exceptions can be granted by administrators (based on RfC result)?

I think that giving administrators this kind of discretion under CTOP can be a good thing. But I want to push back just a little on what you said about "the regulars". You are right to say that this shouldn't be a pass to disregard policies, and I want to emphasize (per WP:REPLACEABLE) that ArbCom should not fear acting in this case out of fear of disruptive accounts taking over unchecked. If we are (hypothetically) at the point where Wikipedia is going to collapse unless we allow disruptive users to monitor other disruptive users, then Wikipedia is going to collapse. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:28, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241226222800","author":"Tryptofish","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Tryptofish-20241226222800-Bogazicili-20241226144400","replies":[]}}-->
"Palestinians - one of the more obvious examples of the POV by this group of socks; in this case, trying to say Palestinians are not indigenous or native to Palestine: האופה (HaOfa) [3], ABHammad [4], Owenglyndur [5], ABHammad [6][7], האופה (HaOfa) [8], Owenglyndur [9], ABHammad [10]"
Minimizing violence against Palestinians and denying Palestinians links to their lands seem to be hallmarks of an anti-Palestinian ideology:
Anti-Palestinian racism has been identified as including the following forms: denying and justifying violence against Palestinians; failing to acknowledge Palestinians as an Indigenous people with a collective identity; and erasing the human rights and equal dignity and worth of Palestinians amongst others
I see the term Zionist was discussed in the workshop, but I haven't seen a lengthy discussion of anti-Palestinian edits or content.

It's too late to introduce evidence and analysis for this case; and anyway, I highly doubt the discussion of Zionist is going to go anywhere, for reasons I articulated on talk - the proposed FoF were too broad. Whether something is uncivil or WP:FORUMy is a matter of context, not a matter of creating a list of no-no words or verboten topics. "Don't call editors X" might work as a general principle, but "you can't say this thing about Zionists / Palestinians as a whole, even in the context of making editorial decisions" isn't workable because editors need to be able to articulate and discuss potentially controversial ideas on talk, which includes saying "I think X is true and here's some sources to back it up; we should reflect this in the article" for things other editors may consider WP:FRINGE. (Now, if they keep hammering at it and refuse to WP:DROPTHESTICK after it's clear it's fringe and not getting into the article, that's another matter. One core question I've come back to in similar questions is "how wrong is someone allowed to be" - this sort of touches on the discussion of "being right isn't everything." Loudly pushing for a WP:FRINGE position and refusing to WP:DROPTHESTICK eventually becomes disruptive, and I do think that being glaringly wrong reduces the amount of tolerance someone should get - it strains WP:COMPETENCE, it's a potential sign of WP:TEND editing, etc. But we can't pre-ban people from arguing for those positions in articles entirely, partially because we need an actual process to determine what's fringe, and partially because even fringe positions do often need some coverage in our articles, if with caution.) --Aquillion (talk) 22:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20250101225300","author":"Aquillion","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Aquillion-20250101225300-Bogazicili-20250101193700","replies":["c-Aquillion-20250101225700-Aquillion-20250101225300"]}}-->
Also, while it's too late, one possible thing just crystalized in my head as an answer to the "being right is not enough" argument - while that FOF is true, the flipside is that editors are expected to do their best to be right. WP:AGF means that we assume that this is the case, but an editor who constantly falls glaringly short of it might have either WP:COMPETENCE issues or WP:TEND ones; and in either case, "you're clearly not even trying to get it right, you're just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks" or "your understanding of this topic area is so unequivocally far from the available sources that it strains good faith" are valid reasons to remove someone. --Aquillion (talk) 22:57, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20250101225700","author":"Aquillion","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Aquillion-20250101225700-Aquillion-20250101225300","replies":["c-Bogazicili-20250102150700-Aquillion-20250101225700"]}}-->
I just said the anti-Palestinian racism aspect wasn't discussed significantly in the workshop phase. I think it's fine to point that out in the talk page.

@Makeandtoss: If this is in reference to the motions posted at ACN, that private evidence was shared with those individuals so that they can properly assess and respond to allegations made, but unfortunately the details of the private evidence render it unsuitable for public review.

Is revealing one end of a 2 ended link doxxing under Wikipedia's definition? The social media account name is not relevant, just like the social media account names of the named sanctioned accounts Ïvana et al are not relevant. But their account names are relevant and named in the motions. My thinking is that the Wikipedia account of the person who created the off-wiki canvassing group may be relevant for SPI cases.

Can the committee confirm that evidence identifying the online activist as a particular banned wp editor was received and judged to be convincing? No doxxing requested.

Not that it really matters very much, but some of the newest Workshop proposals have been placed below the sections for Analysis of evidence, leaving the Analysis of evidence sandwiched between earlier and later proposals. Maybe the clerks will want to fix it, or maybe it doesn't matter. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:21, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241228202100","author":"Tryptofish","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Tryptofish-20241228202100-Order_of_sections","replies":["c-SilverLocust-20241229005500-Tryptofish-20241228202100"]}}-->

I kindly request here as well the opportunity to present another 2-3 important brief proposals relevant to the case, some of which build on new evidence.
