that have resulted in either an absence of consensus for deletion, or an outright vote to keep the portal in question. It is therefore apparent from practice that the community wants some number of portals to exist. The problem is extremism of views constrained by two-dimensional thinking on both sides. Some editors appear to want to save as many portals as possible, and therefore engage in a flurry of activity to revive moribund portals without instilling a sense of confidence that this level of maintenance will be sustained. This is understandable to the degree that it is how things work in article space, where an article nominated for deletion due to specific defects can be saved by remediation of those defects, but this is generally not how things work with portals, which must be somewhat dynamic to serve a purpose distinct from that already served by articles. Other editors appear to want to delete even those portals that are relatively well-attended and consistently well maintained. Editors need to stop pining for one extreme or the other and find a middle ground.
2592:'s opening statement only mentions the conduct of BHG and NA1K. In my view, they should be the only involved parties in this request for arbitration. If other users are to be investigated, then please amend the opening statement to include the specific incidents where these users are purported to have behaved inappropriately. Additionally, it's unclear to me what the scope of this request is. It clearly seems to be asking the committee to investigate the behavior of BHG and NA1K, but it also seems to be implying that the committee should investigate whether or not portals should exist at all, or that the committee should make some kind of decision that imposes inclusion criteria upon portals so that users cannot create "spam" portals anymore. I disagree that arbitration is the right forum for the latter investigations/decisions. 2482:
ArbCom to review the actions of the users involved, especially BrownHairedGirl, who has led a sustained, six-month harassment campaign against Northamerica1000, for no clear reason other than Northamerica1000 has attempted to improve the existing portals. This conduct should be considered unacceptable in our community, as many different avenues exist to work with and report users who allegedly edit outside the norms. Continually disparaging them is the worst way to solve the problem, and this, combined with the fact no specific rules currently exist for whether to keep or how to improve portals, has directly led to a battleground mentality in this space. I would ask ArbCom to review and mediate this dispute, and I would ask that BrownHairedGirl be at least desysopped for their actions and role in this dispute.

warning or blocking editors for personal attacks; Brown Haired Girl has lost that credibility. Brown Haired Girl's mass reverting of the edits of a fellow administrator North America 1000's were a major disruption to the project. What followed was a long, drawn out, disruptive public feud which has taken time and energy away from the project. The administrator North America 1000 has tolerated abuse in the form of personal attacks and insults from Brown Haired Girl. I lament the fact that policies are not applied evenly on the project. Administrator's are at different levels of competence: some administrators are punitive or worse. However at a minimum every editor and administrator on the project should follow the guidelines and policies and especially the fourth pillar
3176:. Also note that it appears resolved.) I've made a direct request to Jehochman, but he is apparently declining in favor of allowing me to add additonal parties. Personally I'd prefer Diannaa be removed from the list (unless she desires to be there for some reason) because the block and unblock are not directly related to Portals, and the issue can be addressed either by statement here, or via an evidence phase which would make clearer how appropriate it is to have them on the list. There are plenty of actors here to choose from for a list of parties, and since neither Diannaa or JBW appear to be active in the Portal areas, it makes sense IMO to restrict the number of people to only those most directly involved in the topic of the case request. Thank you 1290:. What the community is looking for is a way forward without the combative rants about someone's ability or lack there of. Don't think brown has abused their admin tools but is this someone the administration community wants representing them? At this point it's not really about portals but the Integrity of the community at large. The editors inability to see any wrong doing makes us normal editors wonder if the administration community has lost its integrity if this is the type of admin that is representative of the community. I keep hearing what are portals by the few that go out of their way to stop progress...but the majority are fully aware of the purpose of portals as outline at 4137:
Portal:American Revolutionary War and have listed myself as maintainer on several other war-related portals, some recently deleted. I rarely find myself in an MfD discussion; some dead wood must be pruned. I have tried to assert constructive notions on WikiProject:Portals, a strange place where some of the most dedicated contributors oppose and impede portal improvement. Despite these contributions editors like myself have been called portalistas, members of the portal platoon; we live on Planet Portal Fan. Instead of treating our disagreements with good faith, we are “othered.”
1928:; (4) decline this case, leaving it alone, although knowing that the community cannot resolve it; (5) accept a case, and assess what aspects of the case are within the committee's charter, to try to "break the back" of the dispute. Since I don't think that the committee intends to exceed its authority, as in option (2), and since I don't know who the other authority would be for option (3), I would suggest that option (5) is the wise minimal option. I respectfully disagree with those who think that there is about to be a successful RFC, at least not without 3968:
resembles the Infobox Wars in the amount of vitriol being spilled between what would otherwise be very competent editors and administrators. But from my point of view, I find the heavy-handed incivility and personal attacks by BHG - even if they are even REMOTELY justified in some small fashion - to be counter-productive to an atmosphere of collegiality. This affects not merely the editors who are directly being called out, but also editors who are merely tangentially involved, as they may be dissuaded from contributing or collaborating further.
4191:, and I will also admit that I'm more of the side of the "Portals had their time but have been superseded by newer features and are now redundant" camp, but the comments mentioned above quoting BHG's comments are very worrying. Considering that, and the fact that the community has been unable to find a compromise between the pro-portals and anti-portals camps, it seems that there is really no other option but for ArbCom to weigh in. I did not comment in the earlier request, but I would have supported such too had I commented. 3833:. If an ordinary editor behaved as Brown Haired girl has behaved, they would get an indefinite block. I believe that Brown Haired Girl should be Desysopped. In addition, as Usedtobecool has correctly stated this disruptive feud should not have gotten to this point: the many administrators who failed to act to protect the project and North America 1000 should be addressed. Only one administrator had the courage to finally block Brown Haired Girl for the behavior and that was only after this very long disruption. 550: 1920:
is a dispute that cannot be settled by the community. The question for ArbCom should be whether to: (1) decline this case, thinking that the community will resolve it in the near future (although I see no reason to support that belief); (2) accept this case, and address the content as well as conduct issues, possibly exceeding the committee's authority; (3) decline this case, knowing that the community cannot resolve it either, referring it to another authority, such as
1315:
after some objections the list was expanded, and now it is being considered to be reduced after that major expansion as being too wide in scope. It's also unclear what the scope of the case will ultimately be at this time. Please note that I am presently on vacation, and won't be around to contribute in a full capacity until on or after November 30, 2019 (UTC). More comprehensive information will be posted at the Evidence phase if this case is formally accepted.
5077:. Although I would have liked to read statements from BrownHairedGirl and Northamerica1000, I see that both of them have offline factors keeping them from adding statements here. However, reading through the other statements and the history of this dispute convinces me that we should take this case, so I do not feel the need to wait for their statements. We can work with BHG and NA1000 to adjust timelines if needed so they can participate in the case itself. 156: 1495:, the community is unable or unwilling to deal with some of the behavioural issues surrounding portal space, but it is not acceptable that it continues. I think we are able to deal with the content issues without involving Arbcom once the behavioural issues (specifically, the behaviour of BrownHairedGirl towards Northamerica1000, Moxy, and some others, and the reasons she claims for her behaviour) have been dealth with. There is currently some 3948:, could and maybe should have been removed by any editor (such as myself). Also, although I have seen many criticisms of NA1k's editing and behaviour, I am still unclear what they have done outside Knowledge norms. The evidence phase of this case and the subsequent dispassionate assessment would help people like myself understand where disagreeing with a majority over a series of discussions becomes "gaming". 4130:
less (and regularly attempt to move/merge/deprecate them, often asserting delete). Perhaps due to the adversarial tone of ENDPORTALS and the deletion process itself, tiny but motivated tribes have formed with somewhat rigid views and approaches. This tribalism, rigidity and its corollary defensiveness has inspired an occasional failure of AGF on the part of the most committed, trusted and energetic editors.
2070:. I found the reverts bewildering at the time, as the changes helped address a persistent problem with portals being outdated. While the topic selection was not perfect, up-to-date content is vastly preferable to forested subpages of eight-year-old content forks. I've felt that, in any case, one-off improvements would not necessarily stave off deletion at MfD. I did not participate in the unproductive 1554:
I wasn't even among those in the first round of invitations to the recent workshopping effort by Scottywong, I personally do not think so), or on the entirety of how we got here from the first "delete all portals" via the mass creations and deletions, and the recent block and unblock of BHG. The list of parties to the case should be clarified and pruned accordingly, depending on what scope is chosen. —
5970: 4660: 4475:, InvalidOS is critical of BHG for saying that Hecato's actions are the result of dishonesty, malice, or stupidity. Well, those are harsh words, but those are also the only three options that would tend to explain Hecato saying "I asked X and she said Y", when in fact, he never asked X, and she said the opposite of Y. It's either intentional dishonesty or incompetence. What else can it be? 4015:, on at least two sides. The "delete almost all the portals" crowd have made such accusations about the (mostly a year or so back) mass creation of portals (which has stopped, and which may be too stale for ArbCom to address). Currently, though, many of us skeptical of mass deletion of portals (even if leaning pro-deletion on most of them when we actually have time to analyze particular 5044:'s concern that what ArbCom is limited in what we can do here because the core issue is a content dispute. We can't bend the rules to let ArbCom decide on content, but we're not just limited to individual sanctions either. For example, we could consider specifying a route by which the community must reach a consensus on these issues that is definitive and minimises disruption. 2467:. I was trying to provide a tool for objective reasoning and to reduce everyone's manual work. Seeing it was mostly ignored, I put it to the test by opening a handful of MfD, which I think were mostly well received and civil. I think most people kept using other methods to identify portals worth deleting, so my role in this saga can be written off as irrelevant. 3490:. What is even more concerning is that BHG is an admin, a privilege that is meant to be a role model for examplar Knowledge behavior. NA1K is a victim of harassment from someone who does not learn from their previous mistakes. It is unbelievable that an admin can be this disrespectful of their peers." My personal recommendation was a proposal to desysop BHG. 1447:
utility as navigational devices, and how else can a rational person measure this basic utility other then in page views? What mattered most to Certes was that the portal looked good, not that the portal would take nearly five years to get the total number of views the head article gets in a single day, and Kusma displayed the same irrational keep criteria
5317:
entirely compatible with adminship; administrators are not expected to be perfect. However, sustained poor judgment or multiple violations of policy (in the use of administrator tools, or otherwise) may result in the removal of administrator status. Administrators are also expected to learn from experience and from justified criticisms of their actions.
3283:
subsequently kicking me off her talk page. In the same comment, she wrote, “So sustained incivility directed at me is fine, but my incivility in response is unacceptable?” This establishes that she recognizes her actions are uncivil, and evidently believes that when responding to people whose arguments she sees as incorrect, namely portal proponents,

possibilities that are in disagreement with these arguments, whether it is to brainstorm new options, or because the others don't agree with the analysis. This stalemates any discussion to move forward, and as it generates antagonism, it discourages collaboration. This negative behaviour should be examined and appropriate remedies enacted.

portals and holding everyone to it under threat of discretionary sanctions. Only then, I think, can the conflict be deescalated. In any case, the situation has coalesced to a point where it's impossible for ArbCom to continue kicking the can down the road any longer; the community has clearly proven itself incapable of solving it.--

restrictive guidelines than them as if they personally endorse(d) mass creating thousands of portals, but the same attitude is also in evidence from some who are in favour of portals generally (it is not limited to BHG and NA1K). There are examples in this request, and in most of the discussions already linked.
3429:
behavior and while BHG has repeatedly insinuated bad faith on the part of NA1K, she has yet to present evidence that supports her claims. Moreover, if this case is to be accepted, I urge ArbCom to scrutinized the actions of Newshunter12, who has been noticeably disingenuous in their replies to Vermont in
3433:. Given the well-established fact that BHG has repeatedly attacked NA1K, there is no possible explanation for Newshunter12's feigned ignorance that could reflect well upon their motives. This is an encyclopedia, not a middle school playground, and Newshunter needs a reminder of that at the very least. 6036:
While asking the enforcing administrator and seeking reviews at AN or AE are not mandatory prior to seeking a decision from the committee, once the committee has reviewed a request, further substantive review at any forum is barred. The sole exception is editors under an active sanction who may still

Administrators are free to modify sanctions placed by former administrators – that is, editors who do not have the administrator permission enabled (due to a temporary or permanent relinquishment or desysop) – without regard to the requirements of this section. If an administrator modifies a sanction
5707:
10) During this case, a temporary injunction was enacted to prevent BrownHairedGirl and Northamerica1000 from editing or discussing portals. BrownHairedGirl violated this injunction by discussing an MfD in which she had participated. BrownHairedGirl also used arbitration case talk pages to insult and
4143:
Putting aside the ease of destroying something rather than creating it, I believe that throwing out the baby with the bathwater is always poor practice. We are almost out of low-hanging fruit these days. Currently, Portal:Weather is up for deletion (a massive and essential subject matter portal which
3865:
If NA1K's conduct is found to be so unseemly that all of BHG's accusations (and word choices) are judged to be on the mark, not only might we need serious sanction/s against NA1K, and possibly others, but also clarifications/rewrites to much of our policies, because it would mean that there's so much
3362:
A 2 way iBan probalby isn't fair, but may be pragmatic. BHG & NA1k seem to be almost supernaturally energetic editors, and it could take many hundreds of hours to give careful attention to the enormous past arguments they've generated. It doesn't help that the anti-portal side rarely seems to use
3282:
she referred to NA1k’s actions as stonewalling and their arguments as “word soup which conveys nothing”. I replied, using that exact phrasing to describe her argument as to why her insults are justified, which she then described as “spectacular rudeness”, bad faith, trolling, uncivil, and disruptive,
3265:
I’ve been following this issue since a disagreement between myself and BHG over the portal for Vermont (now deleted) resulted in myself being labeled as incompetent and a "portalista" back in August of this year. As such, my statement focuses on BHG’s conduct; I have not sufficiently looked into that
3228:
In this request, and if the case is accepted (which I recommend), then I very strongly encourage the arbitrators and clerks to take a very firm line regarding both personal attacks and word limits (a skim read of any of the previous discussions should explain why). Also the scope should be conduct in
2295:
3. ArbCom should go through the last 20 portal MfDs for reference. They are long discussions - longer than most AfDs, and of a higher standard of analysis and debate imho. The MfDs are closed by some of the most experienced closers in WP (I won't name them, but they are obvious to see). I say this
4489:
Arbs, in the evidence phase, you will see multiple editors present evidence of BHG saying something is dishonest or incompetence or the like. In each case, please take the time to dig into the accusation and see whether or not BHG's words are, in your view, 100% accurate. What I think you'll find is
4147:
For my part, I’d like to see an immediate injunction against any further portal creation or deletion nomination while these proceedings are in process. To break the back of the dispute we must reacquaint ourselves with good faith. Temporarily stopping the deletion allows us time to rebuild such good
3561:
I am not asking for you to change the request. I am stating that BHG needs to be held accountable and that in my opinion, the idea of desysop should be floated around. It is a statement from me, not a request for a case change. I agree that this needs to encompass everything. Hope that clarifies it.
2455:
I came to MfD discussions after seeing that a handful of users were shouldering most of the work of the case-by-case examination of portals which was forced on us by the inconclusive RfC. Furthermore, they were targeted by a relentless mud machine for their efforts. It was impossible to sustain such
2116:
I am not fully in the loop with all of the drama, but I have seen strong evidence of repeated WP:NPA violations here, something that needs to be investigated and dealt with. NPA all too often goes unnoticed and almost never leads to blocks, an attitude that needs to change if we want to keep editors
2057:
1. BHG has taken the positive de-escalating step of agreeing to refrain from using the word portalistas. She is urged not to use another such word instead and not to accuse her perceived opponents of mendacity but instead to focus the discussions as much as possible on pages and policies rather than
1919:
This is a difficult case, as it was in March when I first requested that ArbCom take up the issues of portals and conduct concerning portals. The content issues, about the existence and maintenance of portals, are not within the usual scope of ArbCom; but it should be obvious from history that this
1553:
If/when this is accepted, the Committee should carefully consider the scope of the case. It could either focus very narrowly on BHG and NA1k, or somewhat wider on selected people deemed major participants in the portal wars (I guess opinions may differ on whether I am a major participant; given that

displayed incredible cognitive dissonance stating that page views (or lack thereof), a core reason for deleting most of the 1000 abandoned pre-TTH spam portals over the last 7 months, were not a reason to consider deleting a portal.

for a decade. What we are stuck with is a circular argument that leads us to nowhere but here. Last thing we need is an administrator going out of their way to mess with the rest of us. Brown may have many valid point but lacks the ability to express this in a productive manner again leading us here
5486:
3) Following the first RfC on a proposal to end the system of portals in April 2018, thousands of additional portals were created in a semi-automatic fashion (primarily by an editor who is not a party to this case). Most of these new portals have since been deleted, many through mass-nominations at

3971:
Nonetheless, I'm not sure that blocks or topic bans are the answer to this. Portals are a problem for which there have been multiple attempts at resolution or RFC, but each time, no consensus arises from it. I think ArbCom needs to take the unenviable position of setting a policy in stone regarding
3857:
I'd been waiting to see if this actually comes about, ever since the October ANI discussion (one of the longer ones I've seen) whose close I read as "parties who might possibly be considered for any sanction are too big for any individual admin to have the courage to apply it to, even assuming they

related to this issue. When one administrator feels the need to block another administrator, that's a sign that the dispute should go to arbitration, because the admin corps is too divided to deal with it. ArbCom could be useful identifying bad behavior that obstructs the formation of consensus.
3473:
I agree with Lepricavark that policy decisions are not what this ArbCom case should be about. This should be about holding a user accountable for their actions. On the ANI discussion board, I provided examples of BHG harassing and attacking other users, such as NA1K. From my ANI: "BHG is violating
3391:
Given the insults listed above by Vermont, some might think BHG would be getting off lightly with a no fault iBan. But having spent a couple of hours reading some of her arguments, she does seem sincere. Occasionally calling out what you perceive as blatant lying probably is the right thing to do.
2828:
If this case is taken, it will prolong for some weeks the festering sore that has been caused by our inability to properly decide on the role of portals in Knowledge. It may result in sanctions for one or more sincere individuals who differ on the issue and have failed to find a proper consolidated

With respect to portals generally, I would note that the community has repeatedly rejected binary proposals to eliminate portal space. Furthermore, while there have been hundreds of successful proposals to delete specific portals, there have also been roughly a hundred proposals for portal deletion

We are now at a majority. The holidays are coming up and we are in the midst of the Arbitration Committee elections. It is with almost certainty due to the complexity of this case, that it will run until well after the New Year, at which point, the full 2020 Arbitration Committee will be involved.
4129:
This case is the result of an astounding and creeping failure of WP:AGF. IMHO from before the commencement of WP:ENDPORTALS, portalspace has been batted about like a shuttlecock between those who see more potential in portals (trying to improve individual portals and assert keep) and those who see
4088:
since a broad portion of the community, including myself, is wary of wading into this dynamic. It has gotten to the point where MfD has an option to filter portal debates so that even MfD regulars don't need to get involved. Social dynamics like these break our typical consensus building processes

I'm kind of a centrist in this, having joined WikiProject Portals (mainly to suggest some material for a "WP:Manual of Style/Portals") then having been critical of the creation of so many pointless and redundant portals, but also alarmed at the deletion, with basically no meaningful discussion, of

I'm not going to pretend to understand in full the complexities and eccentricities of the portal-space debate, namely the creation (and subsequent deletion) of hundreds upon hundreds of "junk portals" as well as the purpose that portals serve in this community in general. To me, this whole debacle
3534:
4. Not a role model for non-admins. Administrators are meant to be examples of Wikipedias who excel in the pilars and understand all policies. They are meant to cooperate and help build an encyclopedia. BHG being able to commit activities I mention above is not what an Admin stands for or what ANY
2918:
you are right, but my feeling is that if we divert all the participants to that page, then consensus may emerge - at least if it is their last chance to avoid an arbitration case. That may be hopelessly naive. I admit my view is coloured by the presence on both sides of admins whose mops and usual
2896:
I do not think that is actually true, and even if it is, a well-conducted RfC with substantial input will be impossible to ignore. I see no attempt to burn all portals since the earlier RfC. I don't see any evidence that anyone is acting on the absolutist stance you describe, even if it their view
2481:
I strongly believe this case is about conduct, not content. We have made sustained progress in improving what remains of portal space in the past couple of weeks alone, and we've consistently voted to keep portals. While there are a number of questions we need to solve in portal space, I am asking
1314:
It appears that this case will likely be accepted, which I have no qualms about. I feel that the initial case request was overly rushed, and not researched in a comprehensive manner. For example, it appears that the proposer initially simply added in a few names of recent contributors at MfD, then
4849:
I'm really, really annoyed at these two admins. I was puzzled yesterday when AGK said BHG couldn't respond to the case, as I had looked at her activity which has continued apace since the case was filed. NA1K has declared himself on vacation, and while I have no reason to doubt that, it's awfully
4450:
There is a pretty small-scale consensus going on of users who decided to delete most of the portal space. When I asked one of those users what their endgame is, they told me they wanted to delete at least 93.8% of the portal space, or 848 portals of the 904 remaining ones in July 2019, which they

I would specifically like to ask for interim injunctions (especially since the case has at least 2 big reasons for delay) - moratoria on the creation and deletion of portals - any case should be focusing on how to make the community do its consideration of the issue in a less hostile fashion, not
3869:
If BHG's conduct is judged to be completely unacceptable, ArbCom needs to look at the conduct of admins who've refused to take sides and basically said "you both are grownups, go figure out yourself", essentially falling short of their obligation to protect NA1K, and possibly others, from ongoing
3828:
I urge Arbcom to take this case. The overriding concern should be to stop the disruptions on the project and restore civility and confidence in administration. The incivility and personal attacks by the administrator Brown Haired Girl are a major concern. An administrator must have credibility in

One thing that doesn't seem to have been highlighted is the battleground attitude of some, characterised by assigning everybody into one of two groups regardless of what their actual argument is. Most frequently this treating someone who disagrees with deleting one or more portals or favours less

I have tried hard to remain civil when faced with this conduct, but have several times lost my cool and called NA1K a liar. That's not civil, and it's not who I want to be, but I simply found myself flaring at some escalations of the sustained disruption, which I have never encountered before in
3874:
Personally, I hope it turns out to be the exact middle where everyone is half-right, with the other half being simple good-faith misunderstandings, so we can all just appeal to human imperfections and move on. But we won't know, unless ArbCom elects to undertake the risks involved in choosing to
3428:
I do not believe it is within ArbCom's remit to make policy decisions with regard to portal space, but there are protracted behavioral issues here which need to be resolved. While this is not my preferred venue, other options have not worked. Vermont has clearly laid out the case regarding BHG's
3197:
The problem with all attempts at discussion is they get derailed by editors assuming they haven't been heard and who repeat their arguments over and over, including accusations of poor behaviour such as lying. This fails to acknowledge that other editors can still want to discuss and investigate
2842:
Put simply, we do not have a consensus as to the role of portals, the parameters which might govern their creation or deletion, and even the true status of the guidelines we use to describe them. This is a recipe for dispute, and that is exactly what has happened. The number of active disputants

I am not a party to this case. I urge Arbcom to take this case. the rhetoric used in cases pertaining to portals has continually included various disparaging terms used by some editors for other editors with whom they disagree. Arbcom is sorely needed to review editor conduct. this includes some

issue between BHG and NA1K is whether an abandoned portal with no active maintainer/topic enthusiast/WikiProject support should be deleted, OR, whether mass-updates across many portals by a non-maintainer/non-topic enthusiast, are sufficient to keep the portal in place. BHG believes that NA1K's
