This user believes that the ARBPIA area has become an unsalvageable disaster, with most participants more interested in POV-pushing than in constructively building an encyclopedia.
Note Logan Thompson's improvement in play resulting in NHL Star of the Week award, then a slump in February followed by a one-goal-against stretch in March, another star of the week, and 100th game, then playoff start(s)

Thank you for making a minor edit which had a big impact (to at least one editor). Your efforts are appreciated. AdamBlacktalk • contribs 05:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
The ARBIPA area, which is objectively overrun with POV-warriors seeking to "win" the propaganda narrative, would be far better if most (if not all!) of its most-active editors, backing either side of the conflict, were indefinitely topic-banned. You know who you are.
Nuking the topic's userbase and starting from scratch would be a great idea to try, but some apparently consider my opinion both a PA and casting aspersions on their behavior. Sorry that someone's finally seeing through your Wikilawyering, "but I'm just showing the facts!" garbage and calling you out on it. TheKip(contribs) 22:11, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
As of the last month or two, admin consensus also seems to be that a prolific edit count/contributions in the area also effectively grants immunity from reports of incivility, battleground behavior, and AE weaponization, among other things; at worst, users get a weak-worded warning or two. The message is effectively that only new/uninvolved users have to play by the rules, while established ones have free range to be as toxic and/or manipulative as they want. Ain't that grand?

On a partly-related note, I find the notion that some users are simply unblockable to be utter garbage. We all play by the same rules here, and managing to have your contribution count/quality outrun your policy violations shouldn’t grant you any degree of immunity from sanctions, including indefs. The idea that “well, their contributions are valuable” or “but they’re correct” effectively arbitrarily creates a class system in which experienced editors can get away with things that less-experienced editors would’ve quickly been blocked for, due to some warped conception of opportunity cost. There is no such thing as an irreplaceable editor. TheKip(contribs) 16:17, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
