* New Request: Re: ''"....an experienced editor..."'' -- News is about who, what, when, why, where, and how. That delicate sensibilities have somehow rendered the writer unable to identify the fact that [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] is the subject of the proposed (now nearly accepted) second case is a marked fail for the ''Signpost'' as a Wikipedia news source.

*There has also been a request declined in which arbitrators named as parties declined to recuse and saw no issue in voting against a case in which their own actions would have been examined. What with the case mentioned above, where some Arbitrators appear to not understand that making a phone call is not necessarily a form of harassment, there is much more that could have been in this report.

    And the former case has a discussion hanging around (I think WP:VPT but it might be WP:VPPOL) regarding removing the technical ability of administrators to unblock themselves. The WMF went ahead and implemented a change on that in the middle of the community discussion. --Izno (talk) 16:47, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
