New logo
Hi! I am TrackerTV. I once was a backstander figure in an RfAR that closed 2 months ago. I tried to develop a logo for the Arbitration Committee. My idea's not up yet, but here it is:
- Wide, blue kerned text saying WIKIPEDIA at the top.
- A Venn diagram style circle overlap, one showing part of an A and the other showing a part of a C. Where the circles overlap, the letter W is on top of the letter P.
- Two lines of wide, grey kerned text saying ARBITRATION on one line and COMMITTEE on the other.
I will upload this logo soon. Happy arbitrating!

New arbitrators and old cases
I would imagine we'll handle it like last time: where arbitrators no
longer in office have voted on a case, they count as extra arbitrators for those cases only, and majority is adjusted appropriately.
New arbitrators will be counted as recused for all currently open cases unless they declare themselves un-recused for an individual case; this saves them from having to read up on all open casesimmediately.
— Morven
Based on the above, pending correction from the committee, the clerks will interpret this as follows.
- As of January 1, the number of active arbitrators and the majorities will be adjusted downward to seven (less recusals), to reflect the departure of Jayjg and The Epopt, the only arbitrators currently on the active list who are leaving (except in cases where they have already voted).
- Case opened after January 1 will reflect the state of the committee at that time (14 active, majority of 8).
- New arbitrators are not expected to vote on cases already under consideration, but if they do, the majorities will be adjusted upward as needed, depending on who votes.
Thanks, and arbitrators please correct this if I am wrong. Thatcher131 08:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
