Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''.

Just a quick query/suggestion regarding "]," which seems to imply that such a block is according to policy. Were you alluding to ]? A few argued that it was applicable but a significant portion of the support was seemingly due to users thinking it was the right thing to do with little mention of policy.

*Since I was pinged: Yes, I’m more vocal in my belief that we should block on sight for stuff like this (and I’m willing to be the guy who makes the blocks when needed), but our pretty consistent practice for the last few years at least has been that we block people who openly display Nazi propaganda images and Nazi iconography on their userpage. NPOV (which is the principle that is usually being appealed to indirectly when these blocks come up) does not mean we have to treat the Nazi like we treat other editors: the principle mandates that we treat him in a way that is consistent with the ideals and objectives of our project and movement as well as the policies of our local community. Displaying an image like he displayed with the clear intent that he had was in itself an act of violence (emotional and mental) against a significant part of the editorial population that Nazis and white nationalists think would be better off murdered and dead. That action is inherently incompatible with everything Misplaced Pages stands for: it is a form of harassment against Jewish editors, editors of colour, Roma editors, LGBT editors, and anyone else that evil ideology has in the past or currently wishes dead. Such an act is disruptive because it impacts the ability of Misplaced Pages to function as a collaborative project, and admins have long had the discretion to block for disruptive edits not formally codified in policy but which are a detriment to the project. ] (]) 03:32, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
::{{reply to|TonyBallioni}} Perhaps that has been the practice as of late. Other than that, I largely disagree for various reasons. However, I am not willing to defend the placement of abhorrent symbols or ideology userboxes on userpages unless the need arises. The day an editor making unquestionably constructive edits (i.e. clearly leaving their ideologies out of their editing) wants to put such things on their userpage, should it ever arrive, is the day we can cross that bridge. That clearly was not the case in this instance; as I made clear at AN/I: my problem was with the block reason, not necessarily the block.

Son of Kolachi seems to be a sock of Mfarazbaig.
|}

*With both exclusively working on "photo" on ], Mfarazbaig added enough images on ]. Son of Kolachi is edit warring to restore images.
*Both updated ] with same reference style, and have special interest in ].

These similarities comes after the SPI. While I note that "unrelated" result takes things into a different level, this sock farm is made up of paid editors and socks often come as "unrelated" while completely matching the behavior. It is more clear in this case that Mfarazbaig is behind this account.

Last year, when Mfarazbaig was socking as IPs, (see Bearen Hunter's note on blocking this IP range) the IPs geolocated to the same area as they do with the IP, {{ip|39.57.170.104}}, which was abused by Son of Kolachi on this article before he started using his account to continue the edit war.

In the case of Son of Kolachi, the case is clear that this is not a new user at all, he is too focused with edit warring on subjects where he is defending rather poor edits and indeed disrupting this subject by turning less controversial articles into extended confirmed protected articles and he apparently knows he should not do this. ] (]) 07:05, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

:{{reply|Lorstaking}} If you think ] should have been blocked instead of the ] and ] articles being edit-protected you should discuss that with the concerned admin, ], although my guess is that Ed chose page-protection because the problem at those pages is not limited to one user. The rest of Son of Kolachi's recent edits should be handle-able through the regular BRD process.
: As for potential socking, that is best discussed at ]. I have learned to be not-surprised at the extent of sock/meat-puppetry in this area and therefore can ''imagine'' it happening in this case too; however, given CU's "unrelated" finding at ], behavioral evidence would need to be particularly strong. ] (]) 15:51, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

::Hi Abecedare, thanks for handling this. Bbb23 and I have both already declined admin action with this set of evidence: Bbb23 ran CU on Son of Kolachi against Liborbital (the sockmaster of whom Mfarazbaig is a confirmed sock) and found the accounts unrelated, and Lorstaking's behavioural analysis (the same one they've offered here) was and is unconvincing. Ed also evidently saw that the disruption is not limited to one user and saw fit to protect the page instead, which was a wise response. {{ul|Lorstaking}} is just here adminshopping, in the same pattern as I noted () in the NadirAli topic ban thread: that Lorstaking's allies in the India-Pakistan topic war agitate through whichever venues have not already rejected them, seeking sanctions against their editorial opponents in order to "win" content disputes.

:::{{ping|Ivanvector}} Read ] for understanding when blocks are made. Read ] for understanding that you are not allowed to block editors you feud with. Violation of either can lead to desysoping.

Overriding an admin call where you are ] is in fact worse. Your clear assumption of bad faith only makes the problem worse. You are not allowed to protect any editor from being reported even if you weren't WP:INVOLVED. Bbb23 didnt declined the report but left it open for behavioral analysis. Who told you that Mfarazbaig is a confirmed sock of Liborbital? He is unrelated to Liborbital. Which "NadirAli topic ban thread" are you recalling? There has been no such thread.

My question is, is it breaking WP:IUC or not? since copying that comment in the talk page got it autocensored so you had to modify it when you quote it there. now if there is an autocensor on a comment, if that is not a rulebreak comment then what is?

Can you tell me what part of that sentence has to do with changing the article?


On another note, I suppose it does not break the Palestine vs Israel arbitration, since faith goldy did attend in Israel and was pro Israel, so them calling supporters of Israel neo Nazis is not NPOV then either or?

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

Season's Greetings

Season's Greetings

When he took up his hat to go, he gave one long look round the library. Then he turned ... (and Saxon took advantage of this to wag his way in and join the party), and said, "It's a rare privilege, the free entry of a book chamber like this. I'm hoping ... that you are not insensible of it."
