Come rappresentanti di affiliati e organizzazioni di tutto il Movimento Wikimedia, siamo rimasti colpiti dal duro lavoro e dalla dedizione di Camelia Boban, fondatrice di WikiDonne sulla Wikipedia italiana nel 2016. WikiDonne è stata creata nel 2016 da Camelia per partecipare a HerStory ed è gestita dal Gruppo Utenti WikiDonne e da altri utenti coinvolti in attività volte a valorizzare la diversità e a colmare il gender gap nel mondo wiki. Nel corso degli anni la sua passione e il suo impegno hanno avuto un impatto sul modo in cui il divario di genere è affrontato sulla Wikipedia italiana.

Purtroppo Camelia Boban è stata bloccata a tempo indeterminato nel 2023. Sebbene fossimo sorpresi dalla severità di una sanzione come la messa al bando, allora non abbiamo posto in discussione la sanzione decisa dalla comunità italiana. Lo facciamo oggi ritenendo che a Camelia debba essere data l'opportunità di contribuire, perché il blocco a tempo indeterminato è una sanzione grave, che deve essere applicata solo a seguito di comportamenti molto problematici.

Per queste ragioni, dato che Camelia Boban ha numerosi incarichi nel movimento Wikimedia dove abbiamo riscontrato che è una volontaria molto affidabile e costruttiva, e dato che il suo blocco influisce anche sul modo in cui possiamo realizzare utilmente progetti sul divario di genere in varie lingue, chiediamo alla comunità italiana di rivedere il suo caso e di darle una seconda possibilità che riteniamo meriti.

Insieme, come rappresentanti di altri affiliati e organizzazioni, e come singoli partecipanti al nostro movimento, vorremmo fare questa dichiarazione formale:

  1. Ci congratuliamo con Camelia Boban - e con tutti coloro che sono coinvolti nel progetto WikiDonne - per il lavoro svolto e per la qualità dell'impegno e dei risultati.
  2. Chiedendo alla comunità italiana di rivedere la misura della sanzione e di ridurla a un periodo di tempo accettabile che dia a Camelia una seconda opportunità come utente, ora che il tempo è passato e che tutti hanno riflettuto sul grave impatto del blocco a tempo indeterminato.

Ci auguriamo che Camelia Boban e WikiDonne possano concentrarsi sul loro lavoro importante per la creazione di un'enciclopedia in lingua italiana migliore, più completa e più rappresentativa delle diverse prospettive ed esperienze vissute.

Firmato,

  3. Nattes à chat (talk) 09:15, 9 August 2024 (UTC), founder of les sans pagEs . 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.

    Gender bias on Wikipedia --Slowking4 (talk) 01:22, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    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)[reply]
    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".

  47. Zblace (talk) 18:11, 16 August 2024 (UTC) p.s. 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.[reply]

  54. 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)[reply]
  55. 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)[reply]

  58. 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)[reply]
  59. Strong support 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)[reply]

  64. 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.
