== Adding shortcut boxes to arb cases ==


Take the survey ''''''.
Hello NW. I've been going though some past arb cases. Nearly all of these cases have shortcuts, such as ]. Seven of them are lacking a 'shortcut box' at the head of the case, telling what the shortcut is. When a case has one, such as ], it is usually added with this syntax: <nowiki>{{shortcut|WP:ARB911}}</nowiki>. So my question is:
*Can shortcut boxes be added to the cases which have a shortcut but lack the box?
I would take care of adding these shortcut boxes if is kosher to do so. Cases that have a shortcut but lack the boxes are:

On your talk page, some time back Ludwigs2 made threats that I could not participate in this ArbCom case. He has exhibited extremely poor conduct before and during the case and now his request, transferred to the talk page of the workshop, is a further example. I have carefully avoided using any statements or diffs that might directly concern me. His attempted procedural disruption will result in further evidence being added and a far more severe admonishment. Xxanthippe does bear a grudge. In a previous case she argued that I should be indefinitely banned from wikipedia; so far, although vociferous, she has been unable to support any of her arguments with diffs. From my perception, this is a repeat performance of the same type of disruption that initiated the case. What undercuts the logic of Ludiwgs2 is that this request has been made '''one month into the case''' without any evidence. I already complained to you be email that Ludwigs2 was behaving inappropriately in my proposals section. The disruptive request he has made at the moment is a heightened version of that. Other editors have referred to his penchant for intimidation and bullying. I don't see much difference here.


== Edit request ==
As you requested, I will not add anything during this UTC day to the case, but I might send an email response to the whole of ArbCom. I am busy preparing my last evidence for the Noleander case: it is quite time-consuming. ] (]) 07:15, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
:I note also that the arbitrator JvdB moved Ludwigs2's comments to the "parties" section in my "proposed findings" section, which was the subject of my previous email requests. So at least that is resolved. This seems to be another unjustified personal attack by Ludwigs2. What he claims certainly has no correlation whatsover with my editing history since 2006. ] (]) 07:27, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
::This is to confirm that I have emailed all members of ArbCom, active on the AE cae, with a message. I have sent a copy to you and the other clerk active on the case. Please feel free to copy it to any other clerks if you consider it appropriate. Thanks, ] (]) 08:27, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
:::In a reply to you on his talk page, Ludwigs2 wrote, "As I said, at this point Mathsci has nothing pleasant to say to or about me, and I have no respect for him as an editor or a human being." That diff has also been passed on to ArbCom. ] (]) 08:54, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi, NW, You closed on the ] of the article on Tim Ball, an astonishing move from my perpective. Michael Mann is presently against him, and the conservative Canadian online newspaper he wrote for his ditched him after they retracted and apologized for an article he wrote slandering Anthony Weaver. Do you think that, on top of all his activism over the years, he is notable enough for a BLP? Not as a crank, but as a climate change denier. I can't imagine Michael Mann would bother to sue someone insignificant. ] (]) 10:01, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

:::Error above: should read, "Not as an ''academic'', but as a climate. . ."
:::Thanks to both for your responses. Yes, Deletion review, it was.
:::Hmmm. We have lots of BLPs on people who have been taken to court; they are built almost entirely on negative information. Of course, Ball is not doing physical or economic harm to anyone, and his attempts to damage reputations have utterly backfired.
:::As nearly as I can tell, the reason there's no BLP on Ball is because of a belief that having one would enhance his status, and the consensus is to avoid that. Imo, this verges on censorship, but I respect the will of the majority. ] (]) 19:42, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
