Inaccuracies

  • Any deletion tagged as an arbitration enforcement action is appealable to the community at AN or AE, not just to the Committee directly. The Committee explicitly noted that we generally defer to the community there.
  • Policy at WP:ADMIN#Security explicitly notes that desysopping for a compromised account may be permanent, not that it is only temporary.
  • Enabling 2FA is explicitly not part of the criteria the Committee will use to determine whether an admin maintained appropriate security practices. The main thing is using a unique, secure password, which is explicitly written into policy at WP:ADMIN#Security.

Also several (as in "several incidents" of ArbCom tyranny) means more than two. – Joe (talk) 07:39, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If we're being pedantic, then the OED includes "More than one" (def. 2d) as one of the many meanings of "several" (e.g. joint and several liability), dating back to 1530 although it does note that 4a (Of an indefinite (but not large) number exceeding two or three) is the more common current sense. ‑ Iridescent 07:54, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
