:I did request arbitration (via E-mail way back in September). I have not heard back from ArbCom. I also requested an administrative review via a request to Mike Godwin. I have not heard back from him either. I can forward my Petitions for Redress of Grievance to you if you don't have them at hand. Or I can post them here, now that this page is unprotected. ] (]) 02:30, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

::I can unblock you to post an arbitration request. If I unblock, you must not edit anywhere except ] and any case pages that pertain to you should a case open. Is this acceptable? ] 02:41, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

:::That would work. I won't have time to post anything until next week, as I am heading down to DC tomorrow morning to participate in a review panel at the National Science Foundation. ] (]) 03:05, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

:::::OK. Please do your part to ensure that all discussions arising from my case are carried out in the open, above board, and without back-channel methods to subvert due process. ] (]) 03:24, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

:::::You are ] that I will. Normally I would have left a note for the blocking admin, however, she has not edited in over a month. I'm going to post a template of the case page to this talk, please let me know when you are done with it. ] 03:31, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

::Good morning, Moulton. Please fill out the relevant information required in the below template, as we cannot file the Request for Arbitration without it. You may wish to consult ] and ] for assistance in presenting your case and how it will be handled if accepted, respectively. Don't hesitate to ] if you require any further assistance or advice in filing your Request. ] 07:38, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

So, this is your '''unblock condition''' if I understand correctly: You may not edit any pages besides ] (and should it be accepted, all pages related to the case) or any page in your userspace. Is that correct? - ] | <sup>] / ]</sup> 22:23, 28 November 2007 (UTC) |

The third instruction states: |
|
|
|
|
|
{{quotation|Fill in the names of the involved parties, and provide links to any prior attempts to resolve the dispute (such as formal or informal mediation or talk page discussion).}} |
|
|
|
|
|
In order to facilitate reference to talk page discussions, I will need to create an archive page for the talk page content that one of the admins previously blanked. Is there any problem with that? ] 00:01, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
You can link to a permanent revision in the history if need be, so long as the page was not actually deleted. ] 00:19, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:As far as I know, nothing was permanently deleted, although some discussions have been moved to archive pages. The other thing I need to exhibit is the blocking message that KillerChihuahua posted. That one does not appear in any revision of this talk page; it appears on a template that I see on my user page, but I don't think others see that template. How do I reference or exhibit that original blocking message? ] 00:56, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
::Just go into the history, and click the appropriate date on a revision. That will bring you to a page, with a link. Here is an example, . |
|
|
|
|
|
::As an aside, what will you do if unblocked? Do you intend to edit articles again? ] 00:59, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:::How do I link to something that exhibits KillerChihuahua's original blocking message, wherein she gives the reason for blocking? |
|
|
|
|
|
:::It's too soon to decide what I will do if unblocked, as that depends on what transpires during the course of these proceedings. If the ] are embraced and endorsed, then it's reasonable to imagine that it would be feasible for people like me to contribute to the crafting of mainspace articles. If those objectives are repudiated by ArbCom, then there would be no point in editing articles, even if I were provisionally unblocked on technical grounds related to denial of due process. |
|
|
|
|
|
:::I have one other question on how these cases are titled. Is there any standard convention on titling these cases? ] 01:27, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:::: is your block log. Tilting? ] 01:34, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
:::::Not tilting, but titling. Do I entitle the case "Moulton" or "Moulton v. KillerChihuaha" or "KillerChihuahua" since she is the admin whose actions I am contesting. ] 02:17, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
No vs. You are verses anything. You are requesting a unblock review to ArbCom. "Moulton" works. ] 02:21, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |

|

I have filled in the RfAr Template, and (unless you spot any deficiencies), I believe it is now ready for posting. Would one of you (Nathan or Anthony) please do the honors? Thank you. ] 02:11, 3 December 2007 (UTC) |

::::Notice for any observing parties, I am moving to unblock Moulton, after current attempts to seek reassurance from Moulton that he will not edit any pages except his user space and the relevant RfArb. sections/pages are complete. ] 16:57, 3 December 2007 (UTC) |

:::::P.S., Moulton: check your email. ] 16:57, 3 December 2007 (UTC) |

::::::I appreciate that you extended to me the courtesy of requesting that I directly and affirmatively express my intentions regarding your concerns. |

::::::Also, thank you for posting the notices to the other parties. Whose responsibility is it now to confirm those notifications on the RfAr template? ] 22:58, 3 December 2007 (UTC) |
