Lettre de soutien pour Camelia Boban
En tant que représentant·e·s d'affiliés et d'organisations à travers le Mouvement Wikimédia, nous avons été impressionné·e·s par l'immense travail et le dévouement de Camelia Boban, fondatrice de WikiDonne sur la Wikipédia italienne en 2016. WikiDonne a été créé en 2016 par Camelia pour participer à HerStory et est géré par le groupe d'utilisateurs WikiDonne et d'autres utilisateurices impliqué·e·s dans des activités visant à améliorer la diversité et à combler le gender gap dans le mouvement wikimedia. Au fil des ans, sa motivation et son engagement ont eu un impact sur le traitement du fossé des genres dans la Wikipédia italienne,
Malheureusement, Camelia Boban a été bloquée indéfiniment en 2023. Bien que nous ayons été surpris·e par la sévère punition que représente un blocage indef, nous n'avons pas remis en question la sanction décidée par la communauté italienne. Nous le faisons maintenant en pensant qu'elle devrait avoir l'opportunité de contribuer à nouveau car un blocage indéfini est une sanction si sévère qu'elle n'est appliquée que pour des actions très problématiques.
C'est pourquoi étant donné que Camelia Boban a joué entretemps de nombreux rôles dans le mouvement Wikimedia où nous l'avons trouvée très fiable et positive, et que son blocage a également un impact sur la façon dont nous pouvons mener des projets utiles sur le fossé des genres dans plusieurs langues, nous demandons à la communauté italienne de reviser son cas et de lui donner l'opportunité que nous pensons qu'elle mérite.
Ensemble, en tant que représentant·e·s d'autres Affiliés et organisations, et en tant que contributeurices individuel·le·s à notre mouvement, nous souhaitons faire cette déclaration formelle :
- Féliciter Camelia Boban - et toutes les personnes impliquées dans le projet WikiDonne - pour le travail accompli et le niveau d'engagement et de réussite.
- Demander à la communauté italienne de revoir la sanctioa et de la réduire à une durée acceptable qui donnerait à Camelia l'opportunité de contribuer, maintenant que du temps a passé et que tous et toutes ont réfléchi à l'impact sévère d'un blocage indéfini.
Nous nous réjouissons que Camelia Boban et WikiDonne puissent se concentrer sur leur important travail de création d'une encyclopédie en langue italienne meilleure et plus complète, plus représentative des différentes perspectives et expériences vécues.

Camelia Boban has been unjustly blocked with an extreme severity for wanting to set up a Wikidonne notice board for articles of Wikidonne put up for deletion. The severity in this case is emblematic of the way women who stand up for more justice and fair representation in the movement are faced with. Harrassers of minorities, feminist, queer contributors are left free to roam under the predicaments of free speech, whereas women and LGBTIQ+ contributors are harshly treated for just voicing an opinion on assertive and affirmative ways, being called uncooperative and disruptive when they do so. (This is my own opinion that I write here, and dose not represent anyone else)

- Well @Slowking4, at its time this article was translated in Italian, but flagged for deletion one minutes after it was published. Because considered autoreferential, an original research, a non problem or a "not our problem" (but of enwiki's only). Re-writed after a magnificient work done by @LorManLor, it was "accepted" to stay only as essay, on a WikiDonne's subpage. Camelia (talk) 11:14, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- WikiDonne is also prevented from receiving notifications for women bios and arguments about women targeted for deletion, that all projects - based on their work topic - receive in itwiki. Not only the automatic ones (the block it happened at the end of a discussion about the AfD), but also the manual ones. On the grounds that "WikiDonne has no expertise in the matter".

IMHO it is huge sytematic problem that needs to be addressed across all Wikimedia and especially by WMF, but in solidarity with Camelia I sign the letter as it is works in hope it works at least for her this time, knowing it is far from ideal from solution and/or justice for all in similar situation.

- Italian Wikipedia unfortunately likely needs a wider investigation by UCoC for failure to comply with the standards we expect of all Wiki projects Shushugah (talk) 11:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- I was indeffed myself, and on a project that for years and despite several denied unblocking requests didn't tell me I was allowed to edit with another account. The blocking admin then told me this on meta when I opposed him because of my denied unblocking request when he wanted to become a steward. As for me it shouldn't be this difficult to be collaborative.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 13:20, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
- After reading the reasoning of Nattes à chat I much more support that the Italian wiki community takes a review of Camelia Bobans case.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 13:48, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

- per how Zblace has pointed out. Such blocks are also carried out on the other projects and needed a wider investigation. This kind of bureaucracy is detrimental to the growth of our projects. I'm droping this signature of support on behalf of DCW after having met Camelia in-person at Wikimedia Summit 2024 in Berlin, and finding her work extraordinary. She deserves to be given a chance, and infact the block in our opinion was uncalled for. signed, Aafi (DCW) (talk) 08:21, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- Strong support for reconsidering Camelia's block. As an active Wikimedia organizer who has also faced an unfair indef, I understand how onwiki blocks can be used as a tool to deliberately stop the activism of real life organizers. Unfortunately, there is currently no effective mechanism to address or reconsider such controversial blocks, and this significant loophole in Wikimedia governance is being intentionally exploited. -- BIDROHI Hello.. 15:11, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

- I hope Italian Wikipedia community finds an acceptable balanced solution to the specific issue perceived as serious that does not involve blocking of an otherwise very constructive user with valuable contribution our itWP colleagues could actually be very proud of having in their midst. To @Camelia.boban:: We are impressed with what you have done yourself, inspired others you know and more of those you haven't met from various corners of the globe. Onwiki or offwiki - you move mountains. Thanks for all you've done for individuals, language and thematic communities in my part of the world. As for the local block in your homewiki - I myself would have preferred to have stayed indef blocked in mine, than having to become an admin and deal with the mess to keep community going after external intervention to give me the chance to edit that I specifically warned initiators against.
