Arbitration report
Think, and not just about content
May
[edit]It is entirely possible to flout the norms of civility while still focusing on content. Repeated, harsh degradations of other people's work, particularly when those comments are disproportionate to the impact of the edits, are highly corrosive to the collaborative environment.
The committee also encouraged editors to take feedback and criticism into consideration. Editors that can't take criticism may not be receptive to warnings which limits the options when sanctions are needed.
June
[edit]The committee took on one new case involving WP:MEATPUPPETs on Micheal Jackson in which five accounts were indefinitely banned.
