Resignation of member, AGK

Last month, I accepted a position on the Wikimedia Foundation ombudsman commission, a body that assists in resolving complaints across all Wikimedia Foundation projects about the privacy, checkuser, and oversight policies. I feel sure that the other members have sufficient experience, diversity of style, and time to carry on without my input. Rather than sitting on both bodies, I am today resigning as a member of the Arbitration Committee. AGK ■ 16:44, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Antisemitism in Poland: Motion (May 2020)

The following is added as a remedy to the Antisemitism in Poland arbitration case: 7) 500/30 restriction: All IP editors, users with fewer than 500 edits, and users with less than 30 days' tenure are prohibited from editing articles related to the history of Jews and antisemitism in Poland during World War II (1933–45), including the Holocaust in Poland. This prohibition may be enforced preemptively by use of extended confirmed protection (ECP), or by other methods such as reverts, pending changes protection, and appropriate edit filters. Reverts made solely to enforce the 500/30 rule are not considered edit warring.

• • Editors who are not eligible to be extended-confirmed may use the Talk: namespace to post constructive comments and make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive. Talk pages where disruption occurs may be managed by the methods mentioned above.
  • Standard discretionary sanctions as authorized by the Eastern Europe arbitration case remain in effect for this topic area.
