The name is accurate. It was the interactions at GGTF that started the
hullabaloo. The Arbitration committee was coming out against it until
someone brought SPECIFICO's harassment of me to ANI, several GGTF people
got up to document/complain about it happening at GGTF, and SPECIFICO
got interaction banned.
At that point Sitush went crazy, screaming about outing and researching
me, site banning me, writing the bio, which ended up with and Misc for
Deletion and an ANI.
Suddenly Arbitration comittee decided "GGTF" was important enough.
Like Sitush, did enough Arbitrators think these WOMEN (and their
supporters) were getting just TOO uppity and getting males in trouble
for their mere boys will be boys (harassment) behavior?
Remember a couple of them were convinced by some liars that GGTF was
strongly behind the proposal that a woman's edits only could be reverted
by TWO male editors? It took several people with diffs to disabuse them
of that notion!!!
So this really was very much about GGTF and interactions there.
