Hello colleagues,
There is currently a small amount of discussion happening on an ENWP
arbitration page
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification_and_Amendment#Clarification_request:_Discretionary_sanctions>
regarding what ENWP calls "discretionary sanctions
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Discretionary_sanctions>"
practices. Does anyone know of research regarding the effects, good and
bad, of the Arbcom authorization of discretionary sanctions? If not, then I
suggest that this be a topic of future research, particularly for
researchers involved with WMF's work on community health.
Thank you,
Pine
