I thought Arbcom elections were meant to be managed entirely by the community. What is this notice doing here? Tony (talk) 09:54, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

The saga of arbitration enforcement

How is it that an administrator can make a demonstrably poor block at WP:AE and disappear, forcing the 'defendant' to wade through an overly bureaucratic appeals process? (Dangerous Panda has not responded to an email sent by Lecen) Relevant links:

• User talk:Lecen
• Special:Contributions/DangerousPanda/Special:Contributions/EatsShootsAndLeaves (note: this administrator was formerly known as Bwilkins and has a checkered history with blocking editors)
• Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Lecen: upon expanding this, you'll note that Dangerous Panda blocked Lecen for comments he made in error (they were on wrong page; he was, I assume, planning to go to WP:ARCA instead). Lecen removed them as soon as he realized the mistake, hours before Dangerous Panda implemented the block. This was a punitive block, and we don't hand those out for very good reasons.

I hadn't looked at that thread since Sandstein suggested the block, and I'm not a fan of Lecen's attitude—I think he over-personalises things and needlessly inflames situations, which I suspect is how he ended up subject to an arbitration remedy in the first place—but having just had a look, I agree this was a poor block. The block came roughly 27 hours after Lecen removed the comment that was ostensibly the reason for it. Unfortunately, no other administrator can overturn the block without losing their bit. I recommend Lecen appeal to ArbCom if discussion with the blocking admin hasn't made any progress, though accusing DP of a "block and run" seems unfair, given that he did respond to you on Lecen's talk page and Lecen hasn't appealed on-wiki.
