Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/WikiUser/Proposed decision

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain.

  • Only items that receive a majority aye vote will be enacted.
  • Items that receive a majority nay vote will be formally rejected.
  • Items that do not receive a majority aye or nay vote will be open to possible amendment by any Arbitrator if he so chooses. After the amendment process is complete, the item will be voted on one last time.

Conditional votes for or against and abstentions should be explained by the Arbitrator before or after his/her time-stamped signature. For example, an Arbitrator can state that she/he would only favor a particular remedy based on whether or not another remedy/remedies were enacted.

On this case, 3 arbitrators are recused and 1 is inactive, so 5 votes are a majority.

For all items

Proposed wording to be modified by Arbitrators and then voted on.

Motions and requests by the parties[edit]

Place those on the discussion page.

Proposed temporary injunctions[edit]

Four net aye votes needed to pass (each nay vote subtracts an aye)
24 hours from the first vote is normally the fastest an injunction will be imposed.

2.1) The ban for legal threats will expire one year after resolution of all legal claims made by WikiUser against Wikipedia or any of its users.

Aye:

    ➥the Epopt 12:34, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC) persuaded
  2. Fred Bauder 13:02, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
    sannse (talk) 21:42, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC) I misread, struck for further consideration
  3. Delirium 02:20, Feb 19, 2005 (UTC) (Although if the resolution is in an amicable manner and circumstances look different than anticipated, WikiUser may of course appeal to have the ban dropped or shortened.)
    Nohat 07:07, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC) for consistency, I'm canceling this vote in favor of 2.3, which now has 5 votes


Nay:
  1. sannse (talk) 10:13, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC) - This should be on resolution, not one year after. If no specific withdrawl of threats is made then we presume resolution after a year, but if threats are withdrawn that should be the end of it (other bans would still apply of course) - alternative below see 2.3
  2. ➥the Epopt 05:44, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Abstain:

2.2) The ban for legal threats will expire on resolution of all legal disputes. If one year passes with no further threats and no action taken it will be assumed that all disputes have been resolved. Further legal threats will reset the ban.

Aye:
  1. sannse (talk) 10:13, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC) (only if 2.3 doesn't pass)

2.3) After one year with no further legal threats and no action taken it will be assumed that all disputes have been resolved and the ban for legal threats will be lifted. Further legal threats will reset the ban, and the ban will remain in place during and after any formal action taken. If other bans are not active and the matter is resolved prior to the lifting of this ban, Wikiuser can apply to the committee for a change to these conditions.

Aye:
  1. sannse (talk) 23:11, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC) I think this one helps with both mine and Freds concerns. A year, unless further threats/action are taken... instead of a year after threats are withdrawn (or two years if the are not withdrawn) as suggested in 2.1

Discussion by Arbitrators[edit]

General[edit]

Motion to close[edit]

Four net Aye votes needed to close case (each Nay vote subtracts an Aye)
24 hours from the first motion is normally the fastest a case will close.

  1. David Gerard 14:51, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) everything that should pass has; enforcement 2.3 could do with more, but has passed anyway
