they personally will be donating to Amical rather than WMF. I don't
think the Foundation should step in on this unless the site notice or
a community page is being messed with, though some form of

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...
People need to take action on Commons and don't point fingers because
nothing will happen than.

has extremely inaccurate.
It was used right below a name and user name: Virgilio A. P. Machado

When a person says by an arbcom it implies by one of several arbcoms that
exist. The word an (um/uma) suggests one of several/many.
Perhaps more accurately by the Portuguese Wikipedia Arbcom?
