Concerned
  • some kind of dispute on frwiki / IRC, with Darkoneko banned from an unspecified non-serious channel; accusations of inappropriate behaviour and throwing accusations around; loss of trust; something about "the story with Neerdael". Hégésippe and Elfix note the mentioned events seem irrelevant.

    edit: Elfix explained that Darkoneko joined a secret ##cabale connect IRC channel, got kickbanned because he "was not welcome" (along with several who had never visited it), and accused Galdrad of doing it. Galdrad was offended, and the users in that ##cabale channel opposed his confirmation.

    The "story of Neerdael" refers to an abusive sockpuppet DarkoNeko discovered and exposed. Some frwiki users stated that it was not abusive and that there was no reason to expose it. Apparently, this was settled and the sockpuppet considered abusive.

    4 agreed (65 didn't mention this).

Suggestions for next year

Latest comment: 14 years ago 3 comments2 people in discussion

Summary format

This is the first year we have summaries like this, so there were no precedents to base them on. A few things I noted while putting them together:

  • Should we split favourable adjectives into more sections? For example, "active, helpful" (activity/helpfulness) and "multilingual" (qualification) and "good, extraodinary" (character).
  • The "Jack[Joe]" template distinguishes indirect points that aren't explicitly mentioned by that person. In at least one case, listing indirect points resulted in one person's point having a dozen persons indirectly listed (like "James, James[Josie], Josie[Jerome, Jackie], Jackie[Jill]...".) Is there a better way to do this? Should foo[bar] only apply to citing explicit points (not further indirect points)?

Pathoschild 03:13:58, 04 March 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if I'm allowed to post in this section but... "Needs more cowbell" and comments like it should probably not go under "concerns". Perhaps "jovial comments" or "frivolity" should be its own section with them seen as part-neutral and part-support (no concerns otherwise they wouldn't be saying something silly). No reasons should also be put into this area. Stewards need to weigh various issues, and voting support does represent quite a bit of positive but it doesn't focus on particulars. If there were 3 opposes on lack of activity and 10 supports saying "active enough", then you have a different situation than 3 opposes for lack of activity and 10 supports saying nothing. The parsing of comments is for the Steward benefit, so they should be the ones to ultimately decide, but the above is just my opinion on the matter. Ottava Rima (talk) 04:17, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

Thanks Ottava. Everyone is welcome to comment here. I moved 'needs more cowbell' into the 'Favourable' section.

I agree comments without reasons are less compelling than reasoned arguments, although they are a weak indicator of trust (or distrust). Maybe they could be pushed to the bottom of each section, so the arguments are explained first? —Pathoschild 06:04:39, 04 March 2010 (UTC)

I think that would be a good idea. However, since the weight is to steward opinion and the confirmation is more to their benefit, I am sure that when a steward has a blank support that they probably have some greater reason. I think the key would be to move the statements but to ensure that people do not see their view points as being dismissed or that the move is somehow attacking/criticizing them. The last thing we need is another source of drama for this process. :) Ottava Rima (talk) 19:21, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

The summaries look great, and they do convey a lot of information. Props to Pathos and everyone who contributed and are still working on this. That being said, however, I will note that there is no actual discussion amongst the Stewards taking place on the page marked "for Steward discussion only" until now. I'm not going to participate on those, following through on my statement, but I will reiterate: those discussions are supposed to be public. They are not to take place on steward-l or any other private listing. I certainly took heat during this reconfirmation because all of my statements during last year's reconfirmation were public. And that is just fine. Being chosen for this job means our rationales become public domain, in a matter of speaking. Not discussing elections, reconfirmations and similar matters on non-wiki venues, unless privileged information needs to be exchanged, is a vow I took when I was chosen as both a Bureaucrat at the English-language Wikipedia and a Steward of the Foundation. I know some of the Stewards complained I didn't follow discussions on steward-l last year, but as a matter of fact I would be obliged not to take them into account. The Steward discussion is the second phase of a public procedure. This is the page where the discussions are supposed to take place, so I would urge my fellow Stewards to start discussing whatever issues they perceive here. Statistics and charts are fine, but they are by no means the single measure of the Stewards' discussions. Redux 15:53, 5 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

Lar's confirmation

What could English Wikipedia's ArbCom details say to have you change your outcome/summary? Why are we waiting on them? Do they control the process somehow, or somewhere? NonvocalScream 03:01, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

We've asked the EnWiki ArbCom to validate the accusations, specifically the abuse of restricted rights, any violation of policy and/or ignoring consensus, and attitude issues that might deserve review before we make any sort of determination. There is no restriction against gaining more information, and with the solidarity of opposition that has been noted on his confirmation page, there's good reason to make the request. Also, please note that this page specifically requests that non-stewards not partake in this discussion: Similar restrictions are in place regularly, similar to the restrictions placed by bureaucrats here for confirmations. If you'd like to comment on this page, feel free, but preferably do not do so in this section. Thank you. Kylu 03:34, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
Ok. I understand that the English Wikipedia arbitration committee will let us know (*they* will validate) if the opposition and/or concern of cross wiki membership who voted in this discussion is valid, or not. Best, NonvocalScream 03:59, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
From what I understand, they've already decided on the matters previously, and we've simply asked them for a statement comparing the accusations here versus ArbCom's findings. This way, both groups are restricting themselves to their own competencies. Kylu 04:05, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
I understand, but the information I'm trying to get, and I should have asked directly... is the information that committee gives, will give more or less weight to the oppisition based on what they say? What I'm trying to ask, is when the steward decides if to confirm or not, will it be arbcom's statement that causes the steward to give to or take weight from the votes in the discussion, for the purposes of making a decision on the confirmation? And if so, would Arbcom then have a conflict of interest in these confirmations? NonvocalScream 04:10, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
It's to be treated as a comment. The weight of the comment and the comments it agrees with/is in opposition with depends on the steward in question, as we all arrive at our opinions on the matter in different ways. I don't quite see how that project's arbcom giving a statement on the facts of a matter within its purview could be construed as conflict of interest, though you're welcome to explain in more detail. (For anyone who decides to join in this conversation, keep in mind that it's being held to strict civility.) Kylu 04:21, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

There are two issues here. If we are treating the English Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee as a comment, then it would have voted after the close, in addition to that, it is safe to say by virtue of being a WMF approved Arbitration Committee, it will receive more weight. If the Arbitration Committee has a direct influence based on the statement the committee makes (validation or invalidation of claims) then the will of the community who voted here, will be usurped by a local project's arbcom. Why did they even oppose if they can be so easily quenched. This does not seem ideal or proper. So for better, or for worst, I do object to the acceptance of a statement made by the Arbitration Committee of the English Wikipedia by any stewards for the purposes of determining this confirmation. Best, NonvocalScream 04:39, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

This is the best solution that I've been able to think of which can be implemented at this point in time, and I've not heard of any better suggestions, otherwise we're stuck with our own impressions of the user and any issues that were directly linked: The final outcomes of the various discussions don't seem to agree with the allegations, and we're (as I said) acting outside of our competence if we try to investigate the matters on enwiki on our own. None of this is ideal, but hopefully it's better than simply dismissing comments that are possibly unsubstantiated. Got any suggestions? Kylu 05:06, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
I don't know if you would treat a Non confirm - I don't trust. ~~~~ from a Non confirm - BLP fanatics ~~~~. We are setting a dangerous precedent. It is not up to any local project to influence the outcome here. Use the discussion, use the comments. By going outside, you have exceeded, as you say. You have permitted the local project to decide an entire subset of votes... this is no good. Is the stewardship deciding the discussion by permitting the arbcom to inject their weighty nonpublic opinion (or public) , or has the discussion already decided for itself. You decide. Don't have the Arbcom decide for you. Tally the discussion up just like the others, that would be my suggestion. Best, NonvocalScream 05:17, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
Good points, except that an explicit "The user has abused [restricted right, such as steward, oversight, or checkuser]" is a more serious allegation than merely "I don't trust this user." We did not ask for Arbcom's opinion, but the facts that they have discovered on the matter. The decision is still up to the stewards to determine the outcome. Either way, we're not going to be dealing with an ideal solution. Then again, I've never seen a working ideal solution implemented anywhere. Eh. Thanks for the suggestion! Kylu 05:38, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

Hi NonvocalScream. We're only asking the committee to summarize the various cases, findings, etc that have been cited throughout the discussion. Many of us are not familiar with that wiki's arbitration processes, nor are we fully aware of the history of the conflicts being cited on that wiki.

A similar request for information was made for Darkoneko's summary, where a fr-Wikipedia user helpfully explained some vague comments. I think it best to have all the information available before discussing.

(Also, the summaries are entirely unofficial. Discussion will begin when the new stewards are approved by the Board, so they can participate.) —Pathoschild 05:53:02, 04 March 2010 (UTC)

Speaking hypothetically (as I don't wish to be blocked) if an en.wp arbitrator had an affair with a party under its scrutiny, would we agree that this would constitute a palpable conflict of interest?
Less hypothetically, there are very good reasons to think en.wp's ArbCom hopelessly compromised.Proabivouac 10:49, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply

Er, Proabivouac, agree. That I believe there is a conflict when 1) Lar is a heavy contributer there 2) Lar is under the purview of the committee. Lets quit the hypothetical, and focus on fact. Oh, and this is about Lar and the English Wikipedia AC so lets use the names :) Surely your not getting blocked for that. Respectfullt, NonvocalScream 14:41, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
The committee was asked to summarize previous cases and findings, which have already been cited in the discussion. They were not asked to express an opinion on Lar's suitability as a steward. —Pathoschild 19:02:49, 04 March 2010 (UTC)
As a quick note, the enwp ArbCom has received a request for a small number of factual data points regarding the English Wikipedia, and will respond shortly. While we are glad to collaborate with the standing stewards by providing the requested information, the decision process remains entirely theirs; the Committee neither endorses nor opposes any specific candidates, nor will it opine towards the suitability of any of them for the position. — Coren (talk) / (en-wiki) 17:31, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
The summary is finished per Pathos... the factual data points will not change the summary. Please post the summary. Best, NonvocalScream 19:26, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Reply
