You praised my edit - but I am being Arbitrated over it ?
editHi Licks-rocks - I'm sorry to bother you with this, but I've no experience of the 'arbitration' process here: if you have any advice or tips, I'd be grateful. Thx in advance

| Just to show my appreciation to you for stepping in to diligently close that merge discussion, which then, unfortunately, turned into a time sink. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 12:01, 16 October 2024 (UTC) |
- And just to add, I have long appreciated your username. Although I suppose there are some rocks for which this might be a poor choice.
- Thank you! It's a shame about the time sink part but what can you do. And agreed on the unsafe rocks, would not recommend licking Orpiment. Have some at home, aftertaste's terrible. It's a good party trick for identifying quartz/limestone/salt in hand samples though! --Licks-rocks (talk) 13:48, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- You demonstrate that my own collection is lacking. I have no orpiment. Beautiful as it is. I have a number of others I wouldn't lick, mind. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 14:37, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

- You stepped into a dispute with some ugly history, but there was no good way for you to know that -- and even if you did, at the level of a merge discussion closure there wasn't really a good way to address that history. I have a lot of empathy for what Lightburst's been put through, but I don't think any of it is on you. There's just no way anyone was going to close that as anything other than a close call, and it could've gone either way with any closer. Just saying. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:11, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've seen the thread by now, and FWIW, Lightburst has his issues, but people at WPO constantly mocking him and making fun of him isn't going to help, it's just bullying. Either you genuinely believe lightburst is a problem, and you bring a properly argued ANI/ARBCOM case with all the evidence you've apparently collected, or you don't, and you fuck off and stop following every move he makes. Just sitting at the sidelines and jeering is, quite frankly, loser behavior, regardless of whom it is aimed at. Comments like

, or this... yah, real mature. It's just a shitty way to talk about real people. Let's be honest here, if you're not just there to mock an editor as he flounders around trying to save his writing, and you truly care about the encyclopedia, you either help him write, or failing that, you at least address the issue productively. --Licks-rocks (talk) 10:32, 17 October 2024 (UTC)BrainfartLightburst did his thing
