- Abstract (at least 300 words to describe your proposal)
- There has been a rising problem with abusive admins on Wikipedia for the last couple of years. There needs to be a detailed workshop established to document the problem and implement a solution. There are a lot of things that can be done, but the community has been reluctant or incapable of doing them for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is fear of the loss of admins because of changes. Some would argue its not a problem however, when the community can be trusted to vote an editor the tools but it takes a multi month arbitration meeting to remove the tools from an abusive admin, that is a problem that surely anyone can recognize.
- Length of presentation/talk (see Presentation Types for lengths of different presentation types)
- Since this would be more of a workshop, I would say an hour minimum would be needed to establish the problem and discuss it and possible another hour to discuss possible solutions. 75 Minutes
- Will you attend WikiConference USA if your submission is not accepted?
- Possibly, if I think its being taken seriously
- Slides or further information (optional)
- Special request as to time of presentations
