Revision as of 11:54, 10 February 2023

This is a subpage; for more information, see the Requests for comments page.


Special:CentralAuth/PlanespotterA320 was indefinitely blocked in:

Their sockpuppet, Special:CentralAuth/RespectCE got blocked on:

  • Russian Wikipedia in July 2022 for sockpuppetry.
  • Commons in November 2022 for sockpuppetry.
  • English Wikipedia in October 2022 for sockpuppetry.

Here is a threat for using more sockpuppets to evade the bans and blocks; Considering recent misbehaviour cross-wikis instead of just vandalism, I am convinced that it is time to enact a global ban. After that threat, while the previous RFC for global ban was ongoing, this user created another sock on English Wikipedia to evade their blocks, known as User:CK1218, caught by steward AmandaNP (talk · contribs) due to CU evidence and got locked. After this lock, I publicly contacted English Wikipedia Checkuser and confirmed user:CK1218 is a sock of user:PlanespotterA320, see this link.

Finding the facts

Sockpuppetry

See leading part, public information is here, while we cannot disclose private information, such as CU logs or IP addresses.

Harassment

  1. This user has a history of email abuse, which was confirmed by steward AmandaNP during the discussion of previous lock. Confirmation by AmandaNP. As a victim of this behaviour, I believe I'm not the only one.
    Now, this behaviour is also confirmed by user:Red-Tailed Hawk, see below.
  2. Harassment behaviour also got confirmed by Vermont on log of locking, see Special:CA/PlanespotterA320
  3. This user's edit history on Russian Wikipedia including a series of insults, she was blocked multiple times for different reasons, whether vandalism, disruptive editing, or edit warrings, before eventually getting permanently banned from RuWiki. More information can be checked here on Russian Wikipedia.
  4. Threat of using a bunch of socks. First link on English Wikipedia, Second link on wikicommons.
    tl;dr
    In the first link, she is quoted as saying I am going to edit Wikipedia one way or another. I can't stop..., followed by a confession to the socking and then several massive walls of text.
    In the second link, she wrote Let's all stop pretending everything here is so pure, because we all know exactly how Wikipedia works - the loudest and strongest always win. Considering your behavior and the timing of your edits I would be rather shocked if you didn't have a couple sockpuppets in use right now, so get off your high horse and in a few weeks I'll be back writing stuff that I doubt you'll be upset by.

Canvassing

  1. PlanespotterA320 has a history of making fake accusation against Russian Wikipedia, trolling against sysops there but fortunately caught by common users, such as Томасина (talk · contribs) from different projects. See First RFC against Russian Wikipedia, Second RFC against Russian Wikipedia sysops
  2. Making fake accusation against Ukraine Wikipedia but caught by a Ukraine sysop, Piramidion (talk · contribs). See Meta:Requests_for_help_from_a_sysop_or_bureaucrat/Archives/2022-10#Report_concerning_Requests_for_comment/Nazis_in_Ukrainian_Wikipedia. After that page deleted, they recreated another page of same content on RFC against Ukraine wikipedia
  3. Forumshopping during first RFC for global ban. On RFC against Arbcom of Russian Wikipedia, caught by SummerKrut (talk · contribs).
  4. For their own blocks on Russian Wikipedia, if you are still interested in this topic, have a read of their essay on ru:Special:Diff/119777671.
  5. Off-wiki canvassing, on reddit. Confirmed by red-tailed haw, see below.

Using of global ban

  1. The user demonstrates an ongoing pattern of cross-wiki abuse that is not merely vandalism or spam. No global ban is required for uncontroversial cases of cross-wiki vandalism or spam, since these may be handled with a block or lock (which may be made by a steward, without need for extensive discussion). See Steward requests/Global.
    Yes. SRG gave her a lock as sockpuppetry, harassment and something like that, but was reverted after discussion, See here. Considering the complexity of this case, an RFC for global ban is requested by user:Vermont.
  2. The user has been carefully informed about appropriate participation in the projects and has had fair opportunity to rectify any problems. These projects must have demonstrated a good faith attempt to explain acceptable practices and behaviors that are consistent with their mission and scope. This criterion is to show users reasonably know what is expected, have had ample opportunity to appropriately address concerns, and chose not to participate appropriately in projects.
    Yes, for many times. When she came up with an RFC trolling against Russian Wikipedia or Ukraine Wikipedia, we all tried to notice her, but she just came up with another sock in other projects and then went to meta for another RFC.
  3. The user is indefinitely blocked or banned on two or more projects. These blocks or bans must be based on the user's local disruptive behavior, and do not include protective blocks such as preemptive blocks on user without local edits, and blocks based on account security issue or problematic username.
    Yes, if you take their socks into consideration. They are clearly more than two blocks. Even they had two locks.

Additional Request

  1. For using a lot of sockpuppets from different wiki projects, in addition that the user also created a sockpuppet during the last request for global ban. During the discussion, we need stewards to monitor globally to avoid puppet hijacking consensus.
  2. If this case ends with or has a clear consensus for enact a global ban, PlanespotterA320 should be removed from sysop tools at once to prevent further possible disruptive actions.

Procedural

Inform the user about the discussion on all wikis where they are active.

Inform the community on all wikis where the user has edited.

  1. AMwiki noticed amwp .
  2. English Wiki noticed Enwp .
  3. German Wiki noticed dewp
  4. Jawiki noticed Jawp
  5. Russian Wiki noticed RUWP by Lemonaka and Excellence.
  6. Ukwiki noticed Ukwp
  7. Uzwiki, as their home wiki noticed Uzwp
  8. Viwiki noticed viwp
  9. Wikicommon noticed Commons
  10. Wikidata noticed Data

  12. Now all projects were noticed by massmessage. Sorry for spamming minor projects.

Lemonaka (talk) 21:22, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop spamming minor projects! It has nothing to do with most of them. I've reverted all your spams in the projects I've involved in. Bennylin 16:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
actually, it is great to "spamming" minor projects. thats why im here. im here because he "spammed" in tr wikiquote village pump. ----modern_primat ඞඞඞ TALK 02:17, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Strong support Strong support Absolutely inactable behavior.-𝐖𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐁𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 👤💬 20:31, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Support Support This is a procedural vote from nominator. Lemonaka (talk) 20:31, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Support Support. I would like to ask stewards or meta-admins to moderate the discussion a little, or ask the user under discussion to try to write concisely and using less words if she wishes to be understood. At this point it's just unnecessary soapboxing. --Sleeps-Darkly (talk) 20:45, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Support Support per ongoing, intractable harassment — TheresNoTime (talk • they/them) 20:46, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Support Support Planespotter claims that For the past few months, I have been completely clean. By the book., but that is plainly untrue. PlanespotterA320 emailed me via Wikimedia Commons' Special:emailuser on December 4, 2022, threatening to intentionally take Wikipedia's coverage of Uyghurs—a small Turkic ethnic whose members largely live in Western China—and turn it into "shit" unless I were to go on-wiki and make personal attacks in an attempt to get her unblocked. This was an extremely bizarre email (and I am more than happy to paste the entire email here with PlanespotterA320's consent, or to have it forwarded it to anyone who would like it). I had at one point supported unblocking PlanespotterA320 on EnWiki—but the email caused me to strongly reconsider whether there was a chance that Planespotter would be a net-positive to Wikimedia projects. Frankly, the fact that I have not been the only one receiving harassing emails from PlanespotterA320 demonstrates that this is absolutely the sort of anti-wiki behavior that has made PlanespotterA320 to a net negative across the whole of Wikimedia, and for that reason I support a global ban. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 22:26, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Red-tailed hawk: I think you really, really misunderstood me. (Read hidden comment in source mode) --PlanespotterA320 (talk) 22:44, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @PlanespotterA320:, I don't understand why you think that I somehow have a negative reputation on the Russian Wikipedia; even if this were an ends-justifies-the-means situation, the notion that making personal attacks against me (or having me make personal attacks against you) somehow builds up credibility on RuWiki is... patently absurd. The Crimeans, like many Turkic ethnic groups, were systematically oppressed and starved at various times in the USSR, and to this day face a strong stigma against them that results in systemic discrimination. I can guarantee you that I do not harbor negative feelings towards Crimeans, and it saddens me that it would come to this on your end. Most Wikipedians aren't playing ethnic politics, and I don't understand why going after Uyghurs is a way to ensure that the Crimean Tatars are treated better than their Turkic brethren.
    That all being said, blanking your ban discussion to make a point isn't going to help you here. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:01, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Support Support, there was inadequate behaviour in ruwiki full of POV pushing, and as I could see, not only there. AndyVolykhov (talk) 22:47, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Saying that the Mubarek zone was real, Yaliboylu people are real, and pushing back against chauvanist (yes, I say chauvanist) content calls for POV pushing. If that is unacceptable, then the people pushing the very fringe, malicious, and chauvanist POVs that I fought back against should be banned too. There are some things that shouldn't even be debatable. Russian Wikipedia really needs a policy against attack pages IMHO.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 23:38, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Support Support, regretfully. This user's refusal to accept their disruptive behaviour does not convince me of a behavioural reform. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 08:07, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Sadly, their refusal to confirmed sockpuppetry is also nasty. Lemonaka (talk) 14:32, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  8. Support Support per given data in first revision of this global ban. Even though user may have made many good contributions, crosswiki harrasment in email form, crosswiki statements of sockpuppetry and lying about others (even when spotted, as in linked RfC#1 and RFC#2) is not appropriate and not acceptable per Wiki standards.--A09 (talk) 10:09, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    NOTHING it said in an RFC was a lie! Russian Wikipedians making very dangerous accusations against Crimean Tatars (re: accusing Crimean Tatars of inventing the Mubarek project to embarass Russia, a country that REALLY doen't like to be embarassed) happened! Saying that there was problematic behavior there is not a lie! Saying that it is a problem that there are editor on Ukrainian Wikipedia with 8814 in their usernames is not a lie! Saying that the SS was a military formation of Nazi Germany is not a lie!--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 12:43, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  9. Support Support --ɱ 11:03, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  10. Support Support because of large-scale copyright trolling, Uighur genocide trolling, Crimean Tatars trolling by user under discussion. We even has a serious suspicions that this is a Russavia sockpuppet. MBH (talk) 12:33, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I am NOT a Russavia sock! I don't know what I have to do to prove that! Filing legitimate copyvio deletion nominations is NOT trolling! Just ask any admin familiar with Russian copyright law! And fighting back against deeply chauvanist content about a hated ethnic group is not trolling!--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 12:43, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Wow. This changes a lot. Nicoljaus (talk) 13:41, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I invite EVERYONE to read my essay on why it is important that photos on Commons are TRULY public domain (and why I'm not the bad guy for filing deletion nominations to ensure content on Commons is truly free). Also, I think it would be reasonable to demand a public apology from certain users who spread very racist conspiracy theories against Crimean Tatars (who I am banned on ruwiki for calling "chauvanist")--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 14:03, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    WP:BLUDGEON is an essay and not a policy. To refer to a non-policy as if it were a policy has the appearance of psychological manipulation, but I need to do more reading on the concept of psychological manipulation. Moreover, the quoted statement is as implausible as anything and ought to be removed from WP:BLUDGEON immediately. (From the formal tracing Wikipedia standpoint, the statement is not an imperative but a declarative statement and ought to trace to reliable source supporting that unobvious statement, which it does not do.) --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:27, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

  1. 1. This is yet again and attempt to censor me for raising very legitimate concerns and is completely distorting everything that has happened. First of all, my ban on ruwiki is SOLELY for "insulting" other users, specifically for the use of the word "chavanist" to describe some very nasty behavior from other users (re: saying that Yaliboylu people aren't real, claiming that Crimean Tatars invented the Mubarek zone project to make Russia look bad, etc). Saying that there is a high degree of animosity to Crimean Tatars in Russian media is not "insulting", it's a statement of fact. Which is why I asked that a very nasty site, novoross.info, be blacklisted.
    2. My position on the Uyghurs (who I would like to point out, I never said weren't a real ethnic group - in fact, there is widespread agreement they still exist contrary to predictions in Novo Vremya from the 1960s) has nothing to do with my ban on ruwiki or Commons. It is why I am banned on enwiki. I have not made any edits about Uyghurs in wikis I'm not blocked in, save a few copyvio nominations on Commons of blatant copyvios and adding defaultsort to Uyghur articles in Uzbek Wikipedia.
    3. My only sock is RespectCE. I have nothing to do with User:CK1218. I have no idea why anyone thinks it's mine. The edits are completely different!
    4. Saying that a userbox that glorifies the SS is a Nazi userbox is not a lie. The SS was a military formation of Nazi Germany. Ergo, glorification of a Nazi military unit = Nazism. Expressing concern about the prevalance of users with ADL-recognized Nazi dogwhistles like 8814 in their usernames is not against the rules or anti-Ukrainian. Croatian Wikipedia had a Nazi problem too, and it was addressed via an RfC.
    5. There is NO listing of recent behavior that is against the rules, just a lot of ragging on me for things that happened many months ago.
    6. I strongly suspect this is retaliation for my latest wave of deletion nominations on Commons for Russian and Ukrainian photos with questionable PD tags.
    7. For the past few months, I have been completely clean. By the book. Searching for (and finding) PD photos. Editing uzwiki. Things that aren't controversial.
    8. Amanda admitted that their use of the word "harassing" was very liberal (broad) on their part and there was community outrage at their unilateral and unpermitted decision.
    9. Saying that ruwiki has some problems regarding Crimean Tatar coverage is NOT a "false accusation". Just ask ANYONE at Ukrainian or Crimean Wikipedia. It IS offensive (and very dangerous!) to accuse the Crimean Tatar people of creating a hoax to make Russia look bad! (Tomasina did that in ruwiki). It IS offensive so say that Yaliboylu people aren't real! (a user now banned did that). It IS offensive to say that a Lipka Tatar Nazi collaborator was Crimean Tatar! (I doubt Ukrainian wiki would be amused if someone called a non-Ukrainian Nazi like Kube or Vlasov "Ukrainian"). Point is, I say some very concerning things and filed an RFC. Even some editors of ruwiki admitted ruwiki had a problem!
    10. This is an attempt to override local consensus that supports allowing me to edit in other wikis where there have been no problems with me.
    11. Threatening to continue writing on Wikipedia is not against the rules. I'm allowed to edit others wikis. And if I am not globally locked, I will continue to make uncontroversial edits that "I doubt you'll be upset by". I have yet to get any complaints for writing an article about Bashorat Mirboboyeva in Uzbek Wikipedia or making a list of authors by years of death. That's not exactly scary!
    Yes, I have pissed off a lot of users. I never intended to harass anyone. But nothing I am doing right now is against the rules. I know better than to talk about Crimea. I'm not emailing people. I shouldn't have editwarred or called anyone chauvanist many months ago. But globally banning me out of vengence is not going to help Wikipedia. This nomination is filed by a user who has an axe to grind against me because I have attempted to have discussion on some very real problems on wikipedia.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 19:45, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Strong oppose. As I said before, I strongly oppose to block PlanespotterA320 globally. Because she is one of the most necessary wikipedian in UzWiki. Salazarov (talk) 20:01, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose Oppose. As for a wiki project where PlanespotterA320 is not active at all, I see no need to ban them globally. They seem to be active only on several of all the hunderts of wikis. The ban should be used to protect the wiki projects — and most of the wikis do not need any protection from PlanespotterA320, no PlanespotterA320 or any their puppet being there. If some destructive Moscovite fascist appears in our wiki, we are able to ban them by ourselves. --Mmh (talk) 22:53, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Weak oppose. man.. this user has many edits in cross wiki, especially in uzbek wiki. but this doesnt mean users cannot be accountable for their actions. i didnt read whole RfC, if i read maybe i comment Strong support Strong support? but still, this user break rules as it seems. so, maybe even it would be deserved, not should be globally banned. just ban him local not global, when its necesarry. Modern primat (talk) 23:28, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Modern primat Yes, they are a trusted sysop on one project, but socking a lot of places outside that project. I have cut the RFC short, still hope you can have a look. Lemonaka (talk) 00:29, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Oppose Oppose. As someone rightly pointed out, each specific Wiki is able to make its own decisions, and the user PlanespotterA320 should be evaluated in the wikis in which she has edited. Therefore, I disagree for a global ban; did not break any rules in the Italian wikis (in which I was invited to read about this provision) and is still welcome if she complies with our policies. So I oppose a global ban. --Wiccio (talk) 23:48, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Oppose Oppose. She hasn't engaged in any disruptive behavior on uzwiki, and we really appreciate her contributions. If some action is to be taken against her, there should be a separate discussion in each project. A blanket ban is not the best solution. Nataev talk 00:42, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, a project that protect a sock master sysop, even defend them against stewards' action. Haven't I tired on your project long long ago? Lemonaka (talk) 01:09, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You seem to have an axe to grind. She hasn't caused us any trouble, that's why we wouldn't want to see her blocked globally. And it wasn't "long long ago" that you raised this issue. It was only a few months ago. Nataev talk 20:32, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Weak oppose per lack of ongoing disruption, contingent on there being absolutely no socking and no hostile emailing. Additionally, I would probably support a ban from Meta, for things like that weird hidden-comment message to Red-tailed hawk above. But I'm just not seeing the case that a cross-wiki ban is currently needed. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 00:50, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Banning on meta is useless. How could I explain that? They have already evaded their blocks twice. Lemonaka (talk) 01:12, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    you are right about "weird hidden-comment message", but not about banning. @PlanespotterA320 you should have use Template:Collapse top and Template:Collapse bottom. Modern primat (talk) 01:24, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  8. Oppose Oppose This is double jeopardy absent any new transgressions since the most recent lock/unlock cycle, which there seems to be no evidence of. * Pppery * it has begun 01:22, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi, @Pppery. It may look like a double jeopardy, but in fact is not. The previous unlock is with the condition, saying that As an update, after discussion among stewards I’ve unlocked User:PlanespotterA320. This situation is best handled in a (properly formatted) global ban request. Best,--Vermont. This is the first trial not the second. There was no previous trial before it, so it cannot be a double jeopardy Lemonaka (talk) 11:17, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  9. Strong oppose. The user does a lot of extremely useful work for wikipedia. PlanespotterA320 is very experienced and well versed in the PD-laws. Other users always don't like that their photos are deleted - you must not pay attention to it. I believe that wiki projects will lose a lot in case of re-blocking. Plus, I don't see any grounds for blocking: the user has already been punished for these violations. Why should old violations be punished again? The user has changed his behavior for the better way and I don't see that the promises given in the unblock request have been "broken".--Kursant504 (talk) 02:10, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Translation by Tamzin: "Oppose on the principle that we ban where necessary. For the French-language Wikisource, no vandalism, no message that would justify a ban on fr.WS."
    Oppose Oppose. I am from Commons – the project, where Planespotter has made most edits is Commons. In my opinion Planespotter is mostly good user there, creating a lot of successful deletion requests against poorly sourced and licensed old photos. Nobody else does that regularly, but this is a work must be done. I understand, that Planespotter has problems in different wikipedias. If you must, can you block him/her from wikipedias, leaving Commons open for him/her? Also seems like Uzbek wikipedia likes him/her. Please do not ban Planespotter. Taivo (talk) 19:38, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I did not like Planespotter's edit of this page at 19:54, 7 February 2023. Now you can ban him/her, if you want. Taivo (talk) 20:01, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  11. Strong oppose A global ban should prevent evil work. I inspected the users edits of the last 2 years in de.wp. All edits are useful. If the user would be banned globally it would become impossible to continue the useful work. So good work will be prevented, not evil work. The user and de.wp will suffer - thats a very bad idea. If it would be necessary, we are able to ban hin/her here. --2001:9E8:2474:4200:F878:C1BC:583B:3364 21:10, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  12. User may be problematic and some local blocks may be OK, but still I fail to see what justifies this really ultimate step. My POV: ban all the RU-wiki rashists first, especially the sysops among them. Please. --A.Savin (talk) 13:05, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  13. Cannot support this request as being done in good faith given the behaviour I saw at Requests for comment/Concerning sentiments in a particular wiki by the RfC author @Lemonaka and in an AfD in Ukrainian Wikipedia: this seems like the classic case of wikihounding by Lemonaka for reasons unknown to me, and even in cases where PlanespotterA320 is both in the right and not doing anything particularly offensive. PlanespotterA320 is a very problematic user who defends Uighur genocide and cannot act civilly like a Wikimedian should for the life of her, and would eventually be globally locked anyway if she doesn’t change her current behaviour, but I feel like not opposing this request on principle is worse in terms of what behaviour we would encourage if this succeeds. stjn[ru] 12:32, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    An addendum: I noticed the curious phrase "fake accusation", which would mean accusation that is no real accusation, meaning it would be a non-accusation. What was probably intended was "false accusation", meaning "untrue accusation", meaning "factually incorrect accusation". I derive my own conclusions from this defect, and a competent formal analyst trained in psychoanalysis may derive the same conclusion. --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:17, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  15. Oppose Oppose I am from the wiki which was not affected. If I look at the reasons why a global block is required, they seem exaggerated. I think that the mentioned problems can and will continue to be solved locally. For example, in the case of the revert war on en, there was no consensus search at the discussion page of the given article. I don't consider the fact that someone opens 2 RFCs at the finish line to be wallpapering. The fact that they were impolite in the discussions is a problem, but I think that it can be solved with traditional methods on the site. All in all, it seems to me that the proposing party is not unbiased and they overreacts to someone who contradicts the "Western" description of facts and events. So in what you presented, I really do not see a whole series of disruptions to the running on projects for which a global block would have to be granted. --Juandev (talk) 19:00, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  16. Oppose Oppose As pointed out in this page, I think that for now each Wiki should be able to make its own decisions, and the user PlanespotterA320 should be evaluated in theose wikis in which she has edited. I disagree for a global ban; in the portuguese wikipedia, she has made good contributions and I even worked with her in some articles and lists, for example List of female Heroes of the Soviet Union, adding photos like in this edit, etc. I love aviation and I have several symbols in my userpage in pt.wiki, from the Portuguese Air Force cross to the Luftwaffe cross, and it was never a problem between us. She was always respectful and cordial, followed the pt.wiki rules and conduct, and nobodie had anything to say about her. So, ban her if you want in the wikis where she might have caused problems, but leave the other wikis alone to decide for themselves. Tuga1143 (talk) 19:47, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral/Recusal

  1. Neutral Neutral I haven't perused the detailed evidence against this user, but I will say that it's not a "false allegation" to describe this [1] as a "Nazi userbox". The en:14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Galician) was a part of the Nazi party and where I live (Canada) there's been a lot of controversy over whether memorializing that division is acceptable; arguing against that division is not some bizarre false accusation. [2] If this user is globally banned, her issues with that user box should not be part of the reasoning for said ban. Chess (talk) 00:00, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Good point Nicoljaus (talk) 07:41, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Neutral Neutral I'm a non-interested party and only as informed as this page (browsing discussions on enWP linked here), but I've noticed some of those who are opposed to a global ban seem to be basing their positions on the conduct of this one user account on their own wiki, but the issue seems to be that PlanespotterA320 is one account that is kept somewhat clean, belonging to a user who has been using multiple accounts for their dirty work. It is the user who has been found by several wikis to be causing disruption, spreading misinformation, stalking people outside the wikiverse, and other infractions that seem very serious, necessitating multiple bans. Considering the behavior of only one account on one wiki seems to miss the whole point of this discussion, and a short-sighted justification to retain a demonstrably damaging and untrustworthy user (by history and her own admissions). As I read it, this is about a broad and ongoing pattern across many wikis, spilling over to other social media, using multiple accounts, not just one account on any single wiki. That is what should be considered. Dcs002 (talk) 01:58, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

General discussion

  • I'm on the fence here, and it's a bit hard from the request above to see a clear answer to the question that matters the most to me, which is: Has Planespotter engaged in further cross-wiki disruption since her unlock? Would appreciate if someone could clarify that. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 22:15, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Tamzin, Red-tailed hawk and TNT have answered you above. To avoid further harassment, I strongly recommend you blacklist this user from wikimail. Because I got two threat emails from this user on different projects. If you want to have a read the terrible content, I'm happy to share. Lemonaka (talk) 22:30, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Lemonaka: When is the most recent email of this nature? -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 22:33, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @TamzinThey sent me two emails in November and December, then I Special:Mute them from all projects and asked them not to do so. Due to mute, they cannot send me further ones. But on Dec 4, Red-tail hawk got another. So it's obvious... Lemonaka (talk) 22:38, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    So then there has been no disruption in two months, since the lock and unlock? Don't get me wrong, I'm not particularly on Planespotter's side here—I helped her request an unblock on enwiki, only to later find out she had been socking at the same time, which rather felt like a betrayal—but I'm trying to understand what ongoing cross-wiki issue a ban would actually prevent. And it sounds like you're saying there isn't one. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 22:52, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi @Tamzin, I'm on the bus right now, I will answered this a few hours later, can I? Lemonaka (talk) 23:08, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure, I'm in no rush. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 23:13, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Bus stuck in a traffic jam. To tell a long story short, this rfc was firstly draft on November, just after first rfc failed for poorly formatting. It takes me a lot of time and effort, researching previous case, collecting evidence while keeping all the things privately. We all know that if you submit something to arbcom, it will take time. So as this. Lemonaka (talk) 00:10, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Tamzin I knew this rfc, no matter write in which kind of pattern, is likely failed. A trusted sysop on a project was terribly socking outside their homewiki, just hard to imagine.
    While sock master PlaneSpotterA320 is doing constructive edits , socks(repsectCE) are doing disruptive ones, including harassment outside Wikipedia. I'm the victim of harassment, and now it looks like I'm the one who intimidated a poor established user.
    It's such a clever way, and this is just a circle when I tried to find a solution. When I went to WMF about their sockpuppetry behaviour, they told me to discuss with stewards. Stewards take action, but reverted by local community. So I came here, and someone is asking, why not make local decision on each project? If local decision is useful, why I came here, wasting more than four months collecting and writing. Lemonaka (talk) 00:19, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pretty much what Tamzin said. Actions here are supposed to be preventative, not punitive. - Jmabel (talk) 22:30, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have not emailed ANYONE after being asked not to email users in any way that could appear harassing. I have been in contact with @Ghost of Kiev: via email to share newspapers found at the library of Congress to help them with an article they are working on, @Nataev: and others of Uzbek Wikipedia to discuss Uzbek Wikipedia affairs, Uzbek history, sharing newspapers etc. While Lemonaka claimed that I was still doing block evasion after my RespectCE account was outed because I mentioned "showing the ropes" to new users, that was purely in reference to off-wiki social media activity discussing Wikipedia matters. As of now I am permitted to edit Commons, Uzbek Wikipedia, and other wikis, and I have been active there, but it is not disruptive in any way because I am permitted to edit there.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 22:49, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • This is still preventative. They have created a lot of sockpuppets here and there. We have given them enough trust and assuming good faith, that's really enough. Lemonaka (talk) 00:25, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      • Banning me from wikis I am permitted to edit and have local consensus in support of keeping me isn't going to prevent ANYTHING bad! I'm already banned on enwiki and ruwiki anyway! So there is NO point in banning me elsewhere!--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 01:31, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Lemonaka said: fortunately caught by common users, such as ... Nicoljaus. I'm sorry, there must have been some misunderstanding. In the mentioned topic, I spoke about some of the problems with bias in the Russian Wikipedia. But I didn’t write anything bad about PlanespotterA320 (virtually didn’t intersect with her). The Russian Wikipedia really thrives... unconventional views. For example, they cannot even reach a consensus there that something bad really started with the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine 24.02.2022, which is worth regretting (not to mention condemning) [3]. And some of the most powerful admins have already openly switched to the pro-Kremlin project (Runiversalis) [4].
With this in mind: diff, I cannot but speak out neither "for" nor "against" the global ban. If this was indeed trolling on the part of PlanespotterA320, then it's not easy for an outsider like me to recognize if the puppeteer skillfully disguises himself as an emotional truth-seeker.--Nicoljaus (talk) 14:18, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am frankly a bit surprised that the foundation isn't stepping in and explaining to Russian Wikipedians that "complaining" about nasty content and racist accusations in ruwiki and saying that Russia has retroactive copyright laws are not legitimate grounds for a ban. I know that most of ruwiki would be happy to see me punished, but their reasons are far from legitimate. If they don't like the copyright laws, they should take it up with the Duma, not Commons. If they think there are no problems with Crimean Tatar content on ruwiki, I dare them to say I was wrong for asking for some basic changes (like the white supremacist website novoross.info to be blacklisted)! It's not a lie to say that ruwiki and ukwiki have some problems! I don't deny socking with RespectCE and ONLY RespectCE, but I never try to troll anyone, most of my edits are very boring, like adding author attribution to fair-use photos, tagging photos on Commons, etc.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 14:27, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am inviting @Taivo: and other Commons admins who understand Russian copyright law to contribute to this discussion and explain copyright to users who are upset by deletion nominations of their photos that they perceive as "copyright trolling". I hope we can take this moment to educate some of the users who are ill-informed of publication requirements and that copyright rules on Commons aren't personal, but a matter of policy.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 14:37, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Me "trolling" Russian wikipedia, sumarized in meme form: Mubarek was an Uzbek project anyway! reacting to the "final solution to the Crimean Tatar problem" celebrating ruwiki admitting that Yaliboylu people are real Explaining that Amet-khan is Crimean mocking the chauvanists reiterating that Yaliboylu people are real being bitter about airport names explaining the whole tatar as an adjective vs tatar as a noun difference asking for media for commons Obviously I'm an unemotional Russophobic troll who actually doesn't care about Crimea and is just looking for ways to attack Russians! /sarcasm --PlanespotterA320 (talk) 15:22, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Announcing the the addition of digitized newspapers to a library website? Complaining about mislabeled entries in goskatalog.uz? Celebrating that ruwiki admits Yaliboylu people are real?

So be it. Respectfully, the following are (among others) things I take issue with:
  • Posts on /r/GenZedong: (quarantined subreddit, so the Internet Archive does not work, but Archive.is has an account go access the pages to get around that issue)
    1. In June 2021 (archive), you were on /r/genzedong, baselessly alleging that you encountered sockpuppets of mine. I also am not, and have never been, an employee of the U.S. Government, and I don't appreciate your conspiracy-mongering (nor that of the subreddit more broadly).
    2. In November 2021 (archive) baselessly alleging that Horse Eye's Back is a part of a neocon brigade seeking to censor information.
    3. in January 2022 (archive) baselessly alleging once again that a "brigade of neocons" is conspiring to censor you.
  • Other not-so-chill item
    1. In October 2022 (archive) you openly tried to canvass people from reddit to EnWiki move discussions.
The teddy bear stuff and weaving is quite nice, but dodging the fact that you've made personal attacks off-wiki and attempted to canvass discussions is not helping me to change my mind. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:12, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Red-tailed hawk Auch, everything got cleared. Lemonaka (talk) 23:53, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You're "WikipediaHistorian" on Reddit? That account has been harassing me for years. Why would you do that? Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:31, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Those posts were a very long time ago. 1. I don't know anyone one Reddit who is Horseeye. But when I hear that a fellow editor is a government employee (a MASSIVE coi), I tend to want to get the scoop on that. Also, there is a history of socks editing Xinjiang articles, so I would expect there to still be socks there. And not to mention, it is aweful cpincidence that hawk and horseye edit just so many of the same pages. 2. I haven't ben posting about Xinjiang on reddit for a while. However, I did express dismay that a comment on a TALKPAGE asking about a huge timeline inconsistency was censored as it showed that Wikipedia wasn't allowing discussion that was remotely dissenting. Yes, I'm on Genzdong. It is nessesary to be proactive about things when people on social be screaming that Crimean Tatars "are the next Uyghurs"! If that narrative is out, Russians will feel a license to do even more shit! It's pure politics. Politics makes for strange bedfellows. If I have to woo the r/Sino freaks to to prevent dissemination of anti-Crimean bloodlibel, so be it. It's not like those places are highly suceptible to anti-Crimean propaganda or anything. 2. Years? I haven't posted on reddit about you guys that much, and not for a LONG time. And it is important for the sake of all Crimeans that it be very, very clear that I don't get along with you and that you hate my guts. Keep it up. I have not been harassing or DMing anyone in a harassing manner on reddit, just expressing concern about potential COIs and other questionable behavior (re: Socking in Uyghur articles, strange article history timelines, etc). 3. When elements of the Russian state make a concerted effort to erase the existance of Yaliboylu people so that it is easier to paint Crimeans as subhuman Asiastic hordes that don't belong in Crimea (the language of a troll on reddit, not me), it is nessesary to fight back by ANY MEANS NESSESARY to prevent literal erasure of a forgotten and unwanted nation from history. If people tried to delete the article about Uyghurs claiming Uyghurs aren't real and that Uyghurs aren't worthy of an article, I doubt you wouldn't fight back. People have a right to be notified when people on wikipedia unilaterally decide that their ethnic group isn't "worthy" of being remembered!--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 19:42, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"And it is important for the sake of all Crimeans that it be very, very clear that I don't get along with you and that you hate my guts. Keep it up." I'm sorry but you're saying that trashing me on social media will save the Crimean people? You're saying that you engaged in disruptive behavior on enwiki against me so that a subreddit would think you hated me and therefore support your claims about the Crimean Tatars across a wide range of language wikis? Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:51, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be clear I don't hate you and I'm actually kind of relieved that the animosity you showed towards me was to convince an external audience of such rather than being your real feelings towards me. I think your heart is in the right place your head is just a little hot and your hands get you trouble. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:12, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@PlanespotterA320: you were blocked from Russian Wikipedia because you couldn’t act in the manner that is expected from all editors, see WP:CIVIL. As much as I support the view that Russian Wikipedia has biases in their coverage of minoritised nations, the block was much more of your own doing than anyone else at Russian Wikipedia. If you would’ve stopped behaving in an incivil manner, there would’ve been far fewer reasons to block you. stjn[ru] 12:39, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do not see how a violation of WP:CIVIL could ever be grounds for indefinite block. Makes no sense to me, and is in violation of the Christian love-and-foregiveness standard (which can be upheld by Christians and atheists alike). --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Except this was also accompanied by huge soapboxing (see her "theses" here - although it's in russian, I think google translate should be enough), violations of NPA and overall battleground-y behaviour. — Summer 20:02, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was responding to "you were blocked from Russian Wikipedia because you couldn’t act in the manner that is expected from all editors, see WP:CIVIL" with a period at the end and nothing else. As for NPA, this whole request on Meta is probably much worse genuine personal attack than any that the editor ever made. Moreover, the Christian-love-and-foregiveness standard requires the editor to be blocked not indefinitely but rather for an extended period of time so they can ponder that the situation is serious; for many people, psychologically, one year approaches indefinite and ought to be more than enough for regulating many classes of serious misconduct. --Dan Polansky (talk) 05:41, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
As for SOAPBOXing, that is very easily soluble: any on-wiki communication that is reliably identified as soapboxing can be deleted by an administrator and the author is temporarily blocked. --Dan Polansky (talk) 05:41, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Most importantly, the proposers of the measure/intervention ought to establish that an all-wiki ban for all future time is the most prudent, just and expedient course of action. Nothing remotely resembling such a thesis has been established on this page, as far as I can tell. It is not even clear what drives the creator of this measure/intervention and the supporters, but from a formal perspective, that is more of an intellectual-curiosity-driven question than one required to be answered by the process. (One might perhaps debate even that, but let us leave it at that; philosophers seem to be able to debate nearly anything.) --Dan Polansky (talk) 05:48, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thinking more about it, the sentence "you were blocked from Russian Wikipedia because you couldn’t act in the manner that is expected from all editors" appears to use phrasing so vague and general as to be practically nearly meaningless; the level of specificity approaches zero. In some regards, one might hyperbolically liken it to "The entity in question entered into a certain relationship with the other entity"; well, okay, what else is new? Sure, there are some contrasts, such as "The entity has a certain quality, namely the quality identified by a certain adjective". Well, sure. --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:04, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
From a logical standpoint, she was indefblocked due to her negative impact on Russian Wikipedia exceeding the positive. In ruwiki this is also known as the "Casino principle", but to you I think "not being here to build an encyclopedia" sounds more familiar. Summer talk 11:40, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
From a formal standpoint, a sentence criticized as untrue/inaccurate (by me above) cannot be defended by making statements not pertaining to the sentence or the criticism. Inaccurate/untrue statements ought not be made, and can be amended by the author's changing them later, and indicating below that the statement was changed; the change can be indicated using underscores and strikeouts if preferred.
The accusation of the person transparently identified as en:WP:NOTHERE, "not being here to build an encyclopedia", possibly defamatory but I do not know, is distinct from the accusation of civility, and is therefore change of a subject. Whether there is a formally correct tracing for that change to objective verifiable evidence I do not know; it is in part not all that important since the imporant thing is that the propriety, suitability, justice, Christian forgiveness and similar desirable characteristics of all-wiki ban for all time has not been established. --Dan Polansky (talk) 11:54, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
