You are saying ArbCom will be taking on cases to
decide if an article
violates BLP?
Note that in almost all cases (and there are a lot), BLP problems are
resolved with invocation of "Don't be stupid" and a good understanding
of BLP amongst admins - that is, that no article at all beats a
dubious one, and - and this is a point a lot of the people in the
Crystal whozis debate don't grasp - that Wikipedia doesn't have to be
finished tomorrow, that we're not working to a deadline, that writing
an encyclopedia article is not investigative journalism and that
having *no article at all* on someone is not a gaping hole in the
encyclopedia and it can *wait*.
