When a person says "by an arbcom" it implies by one of several arbcoms that

Perhaps more accurately "by the Portuguese Wikipedia Arbcom"?

Hello,
Strange that Pieter kan rule Wikimedia Commons... So far that the Foundation
need to step in.
Btw, there is even a request to get him blocked on OTRS...

I believe that the plan is to bring in the "thermometer" showing how
close we are to our target in the later stages of the fundraiser. As
you say, hopefully that will boost donations again.
At the moment we seem to be doing fine. The personal appeal has proved
itself extremely powerful, I think th
