Hello Tarc,

You nominated the above page for deletion because you felt that the subject of the article was not notable. I agree that the prior article did a poor job of establishing his notability, but I suggest that the subject, Dr. Cameron, is in fact notable.

I wrote a new version of the article in my Sandbox with the goal of demonstrating that a valid article could, in fact, establish his notability.

The new draft article is here:
]

On the basis of this, I'd like to proceed with a Deletion Review. However, I have two problems that I'd like your help with before I do.

a) I am a fairly novice Misplaced Pages editor. I'd like to get feedback on whether the page above is a good example of a Misplaced Pages article, written from an NPOV, with reasonable references, etc.

b) I have a conflict of interest. I know Dr. Cameron and have worked with him quite a bit. While I have no personal or financial interest in getting his page published, I have been told that my relationship with him is sufficient to qualify for COI. On that basis, I really shouldn't be making edits on a page about him, much less writing a page.

Could you please look at the article in my sandbox and let me know if (a) you feel that it does, in fact, establish his notability, and (b) if you would oppose my petition to review the deletion of his page? ] (]) 17:44, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

:Sorry, just not a notable individual. People skimming the refs may slide across the "interview by CNN" and perk up...for a second, til one realizes it is from CNN's section, i.e. user-submitted articles for CNN to accept or reject. ] (]) 22:41, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

::With all due respect, CNN is an interesting, general interest media outlet, but Gartner Reports and A&G Magazine, of which there are numerous references, are far more respected than CNN. CNN sells their news reports for advertising. Gartner sells their reports to corporations for tens of thousands of dollars, based on the promise of fairness, equal treatment, and honest insight. The two reports cited CLEARLY state the notability of Dr. Cameron and what he has done by creating the first Enterprise Architecture degree program at an American university. In addition to being the author of over 40 works of juried research and two books? On that basis alone, I can challenge hundreds of other entries in Misplaced Pages.

::You won't reconsider? ] (]) 15:11, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

:The CNN piece wasn't originated by CNN, that's the point; it is a submission from the public. I have no doubt that there are hundreds of existing Misplaced Pages bios in a similar situation as this guy, and all could be potentially deleted. If that were to happen, I couldn't be happier. ] (]) 15:39, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

::I deleted the reference to the iCNN interview. It was superfluous. The references that remain, to Gartner articles, to articles in A&G magazine, etc, should be sufficient to establish notability. Do you believe that Gartner citations are insufficient to establish notability? ] (]) 16:06, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Tarc, we seem to be at loggerheads with respect to this article. I'm unclear about your reasons for ignoring the reliable sources that I've provided or your desire to QUICKLY delete the article. You are making the case for non-notability, but I don't know why you would be so passionate about it.

Can we talk in person or at least one-on-one? Perhaps a skype call?

Do you think you can share with me some insight about what's motivating your decisions? I don't believe that you are operating dispassionately with respect to this article. There's passion there, and I'd like to know more about it.

] (]) 19:03, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

:I just don't see it as enough, or of significance to the larger world. There's plenty of things that I find personally notable and of some historical significance that get short shrift source-wise and thus don't appear here. Many elements of the ] universe could be covered in more detail, as that was a ground-breaking sci-fi series, but the real world didn't take as much notice of some of its fictional elements as, say, ]. I virtually created ], one of the longest-running and popular online RPGs that predated the current graphics-based behemoths like ] by about 15 years, but its article was deleted. That's how it works here; we all make our pitches, then a neutral party, usually an admin, determines the ] of the discussion. ] (]) 01:12, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

::Thank you for your candor, Tarc, and I appreciate that the nature of Misplaced Pages is to focus on things that people should know about. After 4M articles in English, with a wide skew of articles on popular culture vs more scholarly pursuits, I'm sure that we have reached the point where there are some articles that are just not notable to any one person. I get that.

::But why the challenge? Some articles are so clearly not notable that it's an easy call. A newspaper article writeup about a band coming to town doesn't make that band notable, and a variation on the text-based game "Adventure" that only ran on the Altair PC, and was only played by about a hundred people, is a fairly easy call.

::On the other hand, Misplaced Pages has pages for sayings like "not even wrong" and pages for obscure terms in theology and pages for legal concepts that are 100 years out of date. There are even pages for professors who have done zero research since they got their Ph.D. but, because they were cited on a paper written by their advisor, they get a page. Clearly, someone thought that these items were notable, at some point, and no one challenges them.

::Yet, you've watched THIS article like a hawk, and the INSTANT it was approved by an administrator, you jumped on it. Why challenge this article that very day? There's some passion here, and I'd like to understand it. Have you met the subject and you dislike him? Do you dislike the work he's done? ] (]) 17:38, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

:::Calm down. Look under ], I have the "Add pages and files I edit to my watchlist" option ticked off; when I added the original AfD notice a month or so ago, it automatically added the page to the watchlist, and when it returned to article-space, that was noted. So in a technical sense, sure, it was "watched like a hawk", but more from automation than determination. No, I have no connection to the subject, I just don't like barely-notable people using an online encyclopedia like their Linkedin.com profile, which is what I saw and still see here. Really not much else to say, we'll see how the process plays out from here. ] (]) 17:52, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

::::Tarc, with utmost respect, I must point out that your behavior appears to be a form of Wikilawyering ]. You have ignored the reliable sources and citations of his work that make this person notable (twice), then decided that he is therefore not notable. You have noticed a press release that he did not produce and assumed that he was gaming the project, which is not true. You have noted that I am a colleague of the subject, and assumed that I am acting as his agent, which is not true. NONE of these behaviors are in good faith.

::::You have zero evidence to demonstrate that either I or the subject is operating in anything but good faith, and you are operating outside the spirit of the project to assume otherwise. From where I sit, it appears that you are relying on the letter of the policies rather than the spirit of the policies.

I regret the methods, as I did not take in to account that real people would or could be hurt by my actions, but the point still remains that the Arbitration Committee is ill-equipped to deal with editors who advocate a discriminatory point-of-view in an otherwise civil manner. I'll comment over there in a moment, though I wonder if the nit-pickers and the word-parsers may consider an ANI tread about an editor in trouble at a trangender page to be itself a topic ban violation.

Thanks so much for your strong condemnation of Int21h's apparent bigotry. I really appreciate that. And it is nice to see that someone who said the things that you said can rethink and reevaluate their appropriateness (even though it was a prank I understand). ] (]) 00:59, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

:Yw. And it wasn't a prank per se, i.e. it wasn't just for kicks; I thought it'd be a good idea to show how much the so-called leadership of the project at times misses the actual problem and focuses on trivial things. Didn't work out so well overall. ] (]) 01:23, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

::Well, really the problem is: there is no leadership at all. Admins are not leaders, they are bureaucrats, many willfully or unintentionally not really aware of BLP issues and how expressions of bigotry should be handled under it. And then there are the Arbitrators, who seem to have a better grasp of BLP issues, but who shirk the responsibility to be more aggressive in upholding these principles, leaving it to the admins, many of whom lack the sensitivity, knowledge, or will to do the enforcing left to them by Arb. A kind of circular reasoning where "free speech" trumps our clearly defined BLP policy, simply because admins don't or won't understand just what BLP is supposed to be restricting outside article space. ] (]) 03:13, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

::Wow, Int21h's defense is that ArbCom is not a valid authority! Talk about shooting oneself in the foot! ] (]) 03:50, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Tarc, the wording you reverted at ] were the result of previous consensus (that you can read ] and ], as the reliability of the references is disputed for the sentence you have now re-introduced.

:Zoe Quinn was harassed. Not reportedly harassed. Not a claim of being harassed. Plain ol' h-a-r-r-a-s-s-e-d. If our article does not reflect that reality, then the article will be corrected. ] (]) 13:23, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

:: While I fully agree Zoe was harassed, in the wikipedia article that isn't the standard. The standard is verifiably harassed and with the conflicting sources and chaining of sources it's difficult to meet that standard.

Indefinitely banned

Further to our earlier correspondence with you, the committee has adopted the following motion:

For continued serious breaches of policy, including off-wiki harassment, Tarc (talk · contribs) is indefinitely banned.

By way of enforcement I have indefinitely blocked your account. Appeal in due course must solely be by email to the committee at arbcom-l@lists.wikimedia.org.

For the Arbitration Committee, AGK 22:34, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Well, speaking for myself, Tarc, I'll miss you. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:55, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Seems like the only explanation is in this discussion: Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee/Noticeboard/Archive_29#Indefinite_ban_of_Tarc. ~Amatulić (talk) 00:09, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

  • Well, this is crap. I know I'm late to the party here, but I only just found out about it. Very strange and disappointing from ArbCom, who continue to live down to my expectations. Reyk YO! 12:49, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
