Arbcom desysoped Tinucherian and admonished him for violations of WP:UPE and WP:COI but did not ban him for the apparently obvious undeclared paid editing violations. Tinucherian had made an obscure COI declaration ten years ago and has referenced his LinkedIn page four times where his current paid editing position is made crystal clear. His use of admin tools has been rare since 2014, but he did rollback a promotional tag on his employer's page. His major offense against Arbcom may simply have been responding to their questions with a 2,000 word description of his past achievements on Wikipedia without addressing in any way the UPE and COI accusations against him. Arbcom did leave open the possibility of further community action.
In less dramatic changes, Arbcom also announced that the March 2025 CheckUser consultation did not result in any new CheckUsers, but GB fan did resign from the Oversight team.
