== Alex Shih: Statement from the Arbitration Committee == |
|||
The Arbitration Committee feel it is appropriate to elaborate on the reasons for [[User:Alex Shih|Alex Shih]]'s departure. Whilst Alex Shih was a member of the Committee, he held the Checkuser right. Both his use of the tool and his disclosure on-wiki of non-public information breached the [[Wikipedia:Checkuser]] policy multiple times. In addition, arbitrators felt that he had committed other breaches of confidentiality in his use of private information received whilst on the Arbitration Committee. In August 2018, the Committee confronted Alex Shih with these concerns. Shortly afterwards, Alex [[Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Noticeboard/Archive_12#Resignation_of_Alex_Shih|resigned from]] the Committee and gave up the Checkuser and Oversight user rights. The Arbitration Committee considers this resignation to have been under controversial circumstances. The matter was also referred to the [[meta:Ombudsman Commission]] by a group of functionaries including several arbitrators when the extent of the actions came to light. |
