Again if you read my opening post you will find that that your opinion
of arbcom is quite irrelevant. The arguments would apply just as well
if Fae had been community banned on AN/I.
I am not about to pretend I always agree with Fae, nor defend everything he
has done, but I would ask that those calling for his head remember that he
was comfortably elected as a trustee at the last AGM, unanimously elected
chair by his fellow trustees, and uncontroversially (despite the best
efforts of a small number of trolls to engineer a controversy after the
fact) elected chair of the WCA.
First two were pre opening of arbcom case and the third, well are you
seriously trying to describe argue that [[User:The ed17]] is a troll?
The data we have suggests that the WCA being a largely non en project
(their official language is esperanto) wasn't aware of the situation
and we don't know how they are going to react now.
It would be a grave error for the WMUK board to allow
its decision making to
be dictated by the whims and fancies of ArbCom.
Again no one is suggesting that. I don't think ArbCom have made any
comment on if Fae should remain on the board or remain chair of WMUK.
