== Question ==

Can you explain the policy and guideline based justification for these two edits? I can't figure any out (to me they seem like pretty clear ] violations) so time to learn something new. ] (]) 15:09, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
* Is it correct to be ''closing'' (not commenting on, but ''closing'') sections on other people's talkpages and inserting their own judgement on what had happened? Obviously not, but I'll let this editor carry on for now because I ''really'' can't be bothered arguing with people who aren't actively disrupting the encyclopedia but think they know best. ] 23:21, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
::I can't find anything that says its incorrect... Which is why I'm here asking the person who should be able to quote me chapter and verse from P&G (even if to just point to IAR, I would get that). ] (]) 15:22, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
::: Totally IAR because I've never seen anyone do anything like it before, but it ''feels'' like it should be wrong, doesn't it? I mean, there's {{tq|In general, one should avoid substantially editing another's user and user talk pages, except when it is likely edits are expected and/or will be helpful. If unsure, ask.}} from ], but that's just a guideline anyway... there certainly isn't a policy that covers it. ] 18:57, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
:::: Sounds good, just to be clear I support your decision was just wondering if there was a nuance I was missing (I diagramed it out and the answer was basically this is all "wrong" in some shape or form lol). ] (]) 19:47, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I'm an administrator here, and have been since 2007.  I'll try to answer any questions here as soon as I can, though I do have periods where I'm not available. For admins: if you think I've done something really f***ing stupid and I don't respond to a question about it, please feel free to reverse it ... we can work it out later on.

Palestine-Israel articles 5 updates


You are receiving this message because you are on the update list for Palestine-Israel articles 5. The drafters note that the scope of the case was somewhat unclear, and clarify that the scope is The interaction of named parties in the WP:PIA topic area and examination of the WP:AE process that led to two referrals to WP:ARCA. Because this was unclear, two changes are being made:

First, the Committee will accept submissions for new parties for the next three days, until 23:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC).  Anyone who wishes to suggest a party to the case may do so by creating a new section on the evidence talk page, providing a reason with WP:DIFFS as to why the user should be added, and notifying the user. After the three-day period ends, no further submission of parties will be considered except in exceptional circumstances. Because the Committee only hears disputes that have failed to be resolved by the usual means, proposed parties should have been recently taken to AE/AN/ANI, and either not sanctioned, or incompletely sanctioned. If a proposed party has not been taken to AE/AN/ANI, evidence is needed as to why such an attempt would have been ineffective.

Second, the evidence phase has been extended by a week, and will now close at 23:59, 21 December 2024 (UTC). For the Arbitration Committee, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 03:20, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
