Revision as of 22:27, 11 October 2009

This is a page for working on Arbitration decisions. The Arbitrators, parties to the case, and other editors may draft proposals and post them to this page for review and comments. Proposals may include proposed general principles, findings of fact, remedies, and enforcement provisions—the same format as is used in Arbitration Committee decisions. The bottom of the page may be used for overall analysis of the /Evidence and for general discussion of the case.

Any user may edit this workshop page. Please sign all suggestions and comments. Arbitrators will place proposed items they believe should be part of the final decision on the /Proposed decision page, which only Arbitrators and clerks may edit, for voting, clarification as well as implementation purposes.

Questions to the parties

Proposed final decision

Proposals by User:Tcaudilllg

Proposed principles

Socionists are independent of their field

1) socionics-related articles should observe only that some socionists have done studies on estorism.

Comment by Arbitrators:

Despite having reviewed the statements and evidence in this case, I don't know what this means. Please bear in mind, in presenting evidence and workshop proposals, that the arbitrators may have little or no previous familiarity with the issues in the case. The issues need to be presented to us more in laypeople's language and with appropriate references to the evidence. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:17, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Please read my advice here and here. It would also be advisable for the parties to look at the principles and findings and remedies in previous arbitration cases, to see how best to present your case. Carcharoth (talk) 22:27, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Comment by others:

Professionals are independent of their fields

2) When academics do work on esoterism in the context of a non-esoteric discipline, it should be cited only that people in the field has done such work; the field as a whole should not be labeled "esoteric" or considered as such by Misplaced Pages. This principle should be codified as either a guideline or a policy.

Comment by Arbitrators:

Please explain the reasoning behind this proposal, using everyday language accessible to arbitrators without scholarly background in the disciplines being discussed. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:19, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Proposed findings of fact

Socionics is not esoteric

1) Socionics is not esoterism nor is it related to esoterism at all. Socionics is only similar to esoterism in as far as both alchemy and the socionics theory on information metabolism are works of pure categorical logic.

Comment by Arbitrators:

It's not at all clear that evaluating the role of socionics within the fields of philosophy or psychology falls within the purview or expertise of the Arbitration Committee. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:21, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Comment by parties:

Comment by others:

Edits which suggest socionics is estorism constitute vandalism

2) Claims that socionics is esoterism (or has links to esoterism) constitute vandalism of socionics articles.

Comment by Arbitrators:

Vandalism is defined as edits intended to reduce the quality of our encylopedia. As bitter (and at times incomprehensible) as the dispute underlying this case may be, I find no evidence that any of the parties are acting in bad faith or intentionally damaging the disputed articles. We may find that one or more editors' contributions have violated policies such as no original research, neutral point of view, and so on, but it is unlikely we will find that they constitute vandalism.

General discussion

Comment by Arbitrators:

Comment by parties:

I recommend two things: 1) prohibit rmcnew from adding anything about esoterism to the socionics articles or editing mentions of esoterism in them, 2) adopt DeLong's approach to documenting esoteric forays by scientific professionals as either guideline or policy.
