[edit]I think the Arabic Wikipedia follows an authoritarian system. The administrators there control the users, and what an administrator can do, a normal user cannot. For anyone who is fluent in Arabic, check out this discussion on the Arabic Wikipedia.
If this discussion is in the wrong place, I hope the administrators will move the discussion to the appropriate page. Thank you جودت (talk) 18:44, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
- The place to have a discussion about how the community at arwiki works is: w:ar:ويكيبيديا:الميدان. — xaosflux Talk 18:58, 29 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Xaosflux Administrators control the Arabic version of Wikipedia and impose their views on the community there, so I want a solution from the Wikimedia Foundation. جودت (talk) 09:47, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
- In the unlikely event there is a systemic governance failure of the entire project it can be handed via Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases (If there are alleged universal code of conduct violations), or through the Requests for comment process (for general governance collapse). — xaosflux Talk 11:21, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
