This was previously discussed in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment&oldid=1219891572#Amendment_request:_Conduct_in_deletion-related_editing an amendment request closed on 20 April 2024] and on [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration/Requests&oldid=1221371487#Conduct_in_deletion-related_editing_amendment_request Wikipedia talk:Arbitration/Requests]. |
|||
'''Background''' |
|||
Before [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing#TenPoundHammer topic banned (1)|the 2 August 2022 deletion topic ban]], TenPoundHammer [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1101#TenPoundHammer: prods and AfDs|nominated numerous articles]] for proposed deletion and articles for deletion. He also redirected numerous articles in 2022. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AContributions&target=TenPoundHammer&namespace=0&tagfilter=mw-new-redirect&start=&end=2022-08-02&limit=500 This link] shows the last 500 redirects he did before the 2 August 2022 topic ban. If you search for the text "Tags: New redirect Reverted" on the page, there are 189 results. At least 189 of the redirects he did between April 2022 and July 2022 were reverted. |
|||
TenPoundHammer resumed the actions that led me to create [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1101#TenPoundHammer: prods and AfDs]], which was closed as "This matter has been escalated to the arbitration committee, which has opened a full case at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing]] on this and other related matters" and is cited as "June 2022 ANI" in [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing#TenPoundHammer|this finding of fact]]. |
|||
'''Evidence''' |
|||
I [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:TenPoundHammer&oldid=1212115865#Redirecting_an_article_that_was_kept_at_an_AfD_you_started started a talk page discussion] with TenPoundHammer on 2 March 2024 about TenPoundHammer's blanking and redirecting of [[Monkey-ed Movies]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Monkey-ed_Movies&diff=1211373636&oldid=1149170258 link]), [[Skating's Next Star]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Skating%27s_Next_Star&diff=1211317385&oldid=1113816635 link]), [[Monkey Life]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Monkey_Life&diff=1211295241&oldid=1208244820 link]), [[2 Minute Drill (game show)]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2_Minute_Drill_%28game_show%29&diff=1210745721&oldid=1203405513 link]), and [[Monsters We Met]] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Monsters_We_Met&diff=1211295806&oldid=1198182924 link]) for lacking sources. I was able to find sources for these articles so reverted the redirects and added the sources. I asked TenPoundHammer to stop blanking and redirecting articles as it was leading to notable topics no longer having articles. |
|||
TenPoundHammer continued to redirect articles on notable topics. Between 11 March 2024 and 16 March 2024, TenPoundHammer [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/TenPoundHammer&tagfilter=mw-new-redirect&target=TenPoundHammer&dir=prev&namespace=0&offset=20240115025853 redirected 18 articles]. Of those 18 articles, 14 were about television series (a topic I focus on): [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=My_Tiny_Terror&diff=prev&oldid=1213249681 1], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Steampunk%27d&diff=prev&oldid=1213549584 2], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Window_Warriors&diff=prev&oldid=1213549712 3], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Up_Close_and_Dangerous&diff=prev&oldid=1213753960 4], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Glam_God_with_Vivica_A._Fox&diff=prev&oldid=1213888973 5], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hey_Joel&diff=prev&oldid=1213889118 6], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Party_at_Tiffany%27s&diff=prev&oldid=1213889847 7], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Chelsea_Handler_Show&diff=prev&oldid=1213890355 8], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Queer_Eye_for_the_Straight_Girl&diff=prev&oldid=1213892113 9], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eddie_Griffin:_Going_For_Broke&diff=prev&oldid=1213892312 10], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dice:_Undisputed&diff=prev&oldid=1213904012 11], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Billion_Dollar_Wreck&diff=prev&oldid=1214043290 12], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Junkyard&diff=prev&oldid=1214046486 13], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chasing_Farrah&diff=prev&oldid=1214049553 14]. After spending many hours searching for sources, I reverted all 14 redirects and added sources to all 14 articles. For several of the topics (such as ''[[Queer Eye for the Straight Girl]]'' and ''[[Dice: Undisputed]]''), sources could be easily found with a Google search. |
|||
Between 20 March 2024 and 21 March 2024, TenPoundHammer redirected three book articles (another topic I focus on): [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pop_Goes_the_Weasel_(novel)&diff=prev&oldid=1214733274 1], [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kaleidoscopes&diff=prev&oldid=1214733776 2], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nylon_Angel&diff=prev&oldid=1214879762 3]. I reverted the three redirects and added book reviews. |
|||
Between 20 March 2024 and 21 March 2024, TenPoundHammer [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/TenPoundHammer&namespace=0&tagfilter=mw-new-redirect&target=TenPoundHammer&dir=prev&offset=20240315185029 redirected 33 articles]. Almost all of those redirects are in the music topic area which I do not focus on. I am concerned about the large number of redirects of topics that could be notable. |
|||
On 12 April 2024, TenPoundHammer [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Las_Vegas_Garden_of_Love&diff=1218626528&oldid=1173773751 redirected] the television show ''[[Las Vegas Garden of Love]]'' with the edit summary "unsourced since 2010, time to lose it". I found sources for the article and reverted the redirect. I found two of the sources (''[[The New York Times]]'' and ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]'') on the first page of a Google search for "Las Vegas Garden of Love ABC". TenPoundHammer [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Las_Vegas_Garden_of_Love&diff=1084497395&oldid=1080215567 previously prodded this same article] in May 2022, and another editor [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Las_Vegas_Garden_of_Love&diff=1085513576&oldid=1084497395 contested] that prodding ("contest PROD, nom nominated 200 articles in a single day so it's impossible a BEFORE was done for each"). |
|||
'''Analysis''' |
|||
[[Wikipedia:Fait accompli]] is an applicable principle. Reviewing this volume of redirects consumes substantial editor time. The redirects are leading to numerous notable topics no longer having articles. The redirects prevent the topics from undergoing community review at AfD, which TenPoundHammer is topic banned from. |
|||
Blank-and-redirects get significantly less attention than prods and AfDs. Television-related prods and AfDs are listed at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Television]] and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Article alerts]]. But blank-and-redirects are not listed anywhere. |
|||
It is unclear to me whether the existing topic ban includes proposing articles for deletion. I recommend that the topic ban be expanded to prohibit both proposing articles for deletion and [[WP:BLAR|blanking and redirecting pages]] since there is previous disruptive editing in both areas where he has prodded or redirected a large number of articles about notable topics. [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing#Johnpacklambert topic banned|This remedy]] does something similar for a different editor in the same arbitration case. |
|||
Here are quotes from three arbitrators about [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing/Proposed decision#TenPoundHammer topic banned (1)|the topic ban in the 2022 proposed decision]] regarding the redirects and and proposed deletion: |
|||
# "... This TBAN also fails to remedy the issues that appear to be evident with the use of redirects (see Artw's evidence for examples)."

No arbitrator motions are currently open.
Requests for clarification and amendment
Use this section to request clarification or amendment of a closed Arbitration Committee case or decision.
- Requests for clarification are used to ask for further guidance or clarification about an existing completed Arbitration Committee case or decision.
- Requests for amendment are used to ask for an amendment or extension of existing sanctions (for instance, because the sanctions are ineffective, contain a loophole, or no longer cover a sufficiently wide topic); or appeal for the removal of sanctions (including bans).
To file a clarification or amendment request: (you must use this format!)
- Choose one of the following options and open the page in a new tab or window:
- Click here to file a request for clarification of an arbitration decision or procedure.
- Click here to file a request for amendment of an arbitration decision or procedure (including an arbitration enforcement action issued by an administrator, such as a contentious topics restriction).
- Save your request and check that it looks how you think it should and says what you intended.
- If your request will affect or involve other users (including any users you have named as parties), you must notify these editors of your submission; you can use
{{subst:Arbitration CA notice|SECTIONTITLE}}
to do this. - Add the diffs of the talk page notifications under the applicable header of the request.
This is not a discussion. Please do not submit your request until it is ready for consideration; this is not a space for drafts, and incremental additions to a submission are disruptive.
Arbitrators or Clerks may summarily remove or refactor discussion without comment.
Requests from blocked or banned users should be made by e-mail directly to the Arbitration Committee.
Only Arbitrators and Clerks may remove requests from this page. Do not remove a request or any statements or comments unless you are in either of these groups. There must be no threaded discussion, so please comment only in your own section. Archived clarification and amendment requests are logged at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Clarification and Amendment requests. Numerous legacy and current shortcuts can be used to more quickly reach this page:

Statement by Cunard
Previous discussions
This was previously discussed in an amendment request closed on 20 April 2024 and on Wikipedia talk:Arbitration/Requests.
Background
Before the 2 August 2022 deletion topic ban, TenPoundHammer nominated numerous articles for proposed deletion and articles for deletion. He also redirected numerous articles in 2022. This link shows the last 500 redirects he did before the 2 August 2022 topic ban. If you search for the text "Tags: New redirect Reverted" on the page, there are 189 results. At least 189 of the redirects he did between April 2022 and July 2022 were reverted.
TenPoundHammer resumed the actions that led me to create Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1101#TenPoundHammer: prods and AfDs, which was closed as "This matter has been escalated to the arbitration committee, which has opened a full case at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Conduct in deletion-related editing on this and other related matters" and is cited as "June 2022 ANI" in this finding of fact.
Evidence
I started a talk page discussion with TenPoundHammer on 2 March 2024 about TenPoundHammer's blanking and redirecting of Monkey-ed Movies (link), Skating's Next Star (link), Monkey Life (link), 2 Minute Drill (game show) (link), and Monsters We Met (link) for lacking sources. I was able to find sources for these articles so reverted the redirects and added the sources. I asked TenPoundHammer to stop blanking and redirecting articles as it was leading to notable topics no longer having articles.
TenPoundHammer continued to redirect articles on notable topics. Between 11 March 2024 and 16 March 2024, TenPoundHammer redirected 18 articles. Of those 18 articles, 14 were about television series (a topic I focus on): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14. After spending many hours searching for sources, I reverted all 14 redirects and added sources to all 14 articles. For several of the topics (such as Queer Eye for the Straight Girl and Dice: Undisputed), sources could be easily found with a Google search.
Between 20 March 2024 and 21 March 2024, TenPoundHammer redirected three book articles (another topic I focus on): 1, 2, and 3. I reverted the three redirects and added book reviews.
Between 20 March 2024 and 21 March 2024, TenPoundHammer redirected 33 articles. Almost all of those redirects are in the music topic area which I do not focus on. I am concerned about the large number of redirects of topics that could be notable.
On 12 April 2024, TenPoundHammer redirected the television show Las Vegas Garden of Love with the edit summary "unsourced since 2010, time to lose it". I found sources for the article and reverted the redirect. I found two of the sources (The New York Times and Variety) on the first page of a Google search for "Las Vegas Garden of Love ABC". TenPoundHammer previously prodded this same article in May 2022, and another editor contested that prodding ("contest PROD, nom nominated 200 articles in a single day so it's impossible a BEFORE was done for each").
Analysis
Wikipedia:Fait accompli is an applicable principle. Reviewing this volume of redirects consumes substantial editor time. The redirects are leading to numerous notable topics no longer having articles. The redirects prevent the topics from undergoing community review at AfD, which TenPoundHammer is topic banned from.
Blank-and-redirects get significantly less attention than prods and AfDs. Television-related prods and AfDs are listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Television and Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Article alerts. But blank-and-redirects are not listed anywhere.
It is unclear to me whether the existing topic ban includes proposing articles for deletion. I recommend that the topic ban be expanded to prohibit both proposing articles for deletion and blanking and redirecting pages since there is previous disruptive editing in both areas where he has prodded or redirected a large number of articles about notable topics. This remedy does something similar for a different editor in the same arbitration case.
Here are quotes from three arbitrators about the topic ban in the 2022 proposed decision regarding the redirects and and proposed deletion:
- "... This TBAN also fails to remedy the issues that appear to be evident with the use of redirects (see Artw's evidence for examples)." (link)
"... Missing PROD was not intentional on my part but that also can be added." (link)
- See Artw's evidence about issues with redirects.
- "First choice, and my interpretation is that this should extend to PROD, given the evidence, even though it seems like a stretch to call most PRODs a discussion. ..." (link)
- "First choice, extend to PROD." (link)
