rhetoric
I've always wondered what people mean by rhetoric? I don't mean anything bad just asking if you can explain to me whaqt it is (not specific actions unless you wish). Hell in a Bucket (talk) 19:14, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
- In this context, I guess it's reporting facts with links, rather than expressing opinions in dramatic terms based on those facts. Bit of a balancing act sometimes. I hope this helps, Roger Davies 19:39, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
HIAB. As a follow up to this, no matter how strongly you feel, it's really not a good idea to bandy accusations of underhandedness and bad faith about. Roger Davies 09:05, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
- I think that it is a consideration of the evidence presented. I don't mean it as a personal attack but I think that her comments today show that she may not be thinking about this rationally.

- Let's face the facts, I talk about accountability a lot. Here's mine, I am argumentative, I get hot headed. I have a difficult time with dishonesty, corruption and controlling my mouth when provoked or under stress. I do however accept and encourage disagreements as long as they are backed by a valid rationale. I am far far from perfect, but when I'm being portrayed as the problem when I present a huge amount of evidence of behaviors and I'm still the issue I have a problem with that.

A question about sanctions
Sorry to post here, (yes I read your note at the top) but I really don't feel like involving any of the other arbitrators in this question. You seem to be the owner of a rational & well-oiled noggin, and more importantly you don't speak down to other's with a mouthful of legalese; This is why I'm approaching you. From the GGTF case, I have an indefinite topic ban. I know what "indefinite" means, but I also noticed that those who were indefinitely banned are able to request their sanction being removed after a year. Does the same timeframe apply to topic bans? Two kinds of porkBacon 23:35, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, that's about right. But unless the atmosphere around the topic changes significantly, I doubt the committee will consider relaxing topic bans that soon. Roger Davies 04:49, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
Typo'?
I think there's a word missing in there somewhere. ("Commentary – varying from constructive criticism to ad hominin remarks – about Wifione has posted in many forums on many occasions on many years without resolution.") --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 13:43, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
- Oh yes, and fixed. I'm rubbish at proofreading my own stuff. Thank you for telling me, Roger Davies 13:55, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
