JoeRoe asks Beeblebrox to recuse from Arbitrartion case.

Beeblebrox: Your interactions with Celestina were part of what precipitated the first ANI, you've participated extensively in the WPO thread that has clearly been fanning the flames of the second, and three days ago you removed most of her permissions. I'm really surprised that you chose to offer the first vote on this request instead of recusing.

Beeblebrox 'splains away.

Joe, I'm always willing to consider the possibility that I should recuse, but I'm not sure I agree with your reasoning here. pecifically that my actions are the cause of the previous ANI, and that I have participated "extensively" in the WPO thread. I gave her some advice, now at [[User talk:Celestina007/Archives/2021/June#painful lessons I've learned the hard way]]. I don't think that advice directly caused the ANI thread, although it is mentioned there. As to my participation on the WPO thread, there is only one comment from me in that thread that directly discusses Celestina, and it is simply a clarification of why I revoked those user rights, which I consider a purely administrative action based on a fairly clear consensus at the current ANI thread that she is not a "highly trusted user" who should have all those various hats. All of my other comments are either about something else or are jokes not about this case at all. Commenting on a thread there does not constitute an endorsement of every other comment in the same thread, or actions that other participants there may have undertaken here. That being said, the mere appearance of impropriety is something to consider in such cases and if this moves forward and it seems others agree with your position I'll reconsider.

Beeblebrox finally "recuses".

Recuse I realize this complicates matters but I think we can take it as read that the "per Beeblebrox" comments below are in reference to my initially expressed concerns regarding the ANI thread.

Then Beeblobrox closes the noticeboard discussion: himself and topic bans Celestina007.

There's a ''lot'' going on here, and I have been waiting for some totally uninvolved person to come along and close this, but it simply has not happened. My own previous involvement here was administrative in nature (revocation of user rights based not on my own opinion but on the consensus in this discussion), I am not involved in the underlying dispute, and have recused from the pending request for an ArbCom case because I think this just really needs to be closed.

I expect it will be no more than a few hours before someone accuses me of being stage-managed by you all, even though most of you clearly wanted a full block or a siteban.
Honestly Beebs I thought
you were stage-managing
them.
