== T-man ban == == A barnstar for you! ==


{| style="background-color: #fdffe7; border: 1px solid #fceb92;"
I took the liberty of recording your enactment of the 6-month ban on T-man at ]. Hope that's OK. It probably should be noted at AN/I as well, I suppose, but I'll leave that to you — I don't want to put words in your mouth. —] <small>(] • ])</small> 06:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

:I actually think it was routine, I had spoken to Tito and Shanel about the possibility before, and in any case, arbcom is not about to overturn its own ruling, so the discussion at AN/I would be rather pointless. Thanks for cleaning up after me and making the necessary log though. :) ]·] 07:29, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

::No problem. I only mentioned AN/I because of the clause in the decision about T-man's probation, which says "a note must also be placed on ]", but I suppose that's about the probation rather than his six-month ban, which was put aside while the mentorship was tried. I didn't mean to be telling you how to do your job! :) —] <small>(] • ])</small> 07:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

== Ericsaindon2/Coolcaesar ==

I feel kinda iffy about putting up all those redirects for deletion (see ] for the redirects) from Ericsaindon2's attempted renaming of that arbcom case. Moving the case pages would probably result in rapid reverts, so he just keeps editing the template to change the parameter to "Ericsaindon2/Coolcaesar" so it points to redirects. If the redirects go, its harder. Could you consider just deleting those redirects (they're sort of implausable typos for anyone but eric himself), else would you mind if I threw them up on RfD? ] 01:13, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

==MSTCrow==
While I (obviously) agree with you that there's enough troublesome behavior to warrant ArbCom action, a quick look at the ArbCom page tells me that you folks are already up to your eyeballs in work, so practically it may not be a good idea -- especially if, as seems likely to me, MSTCrow is on his way down the slippery slope to a community ban. Under the theory of "give 'em enough rope and they'll hang themselves", it won't take much more edit-warring, insults, pointless wikilawyering -- note his defense of {{User|Lingeron}} -- and occasional outright lies for him to alienate a critical mass of editors/admins, which would render ArbCom action moot.

Besides, if he's true to form, any ArbCom case involving him would be wikilawyered up the wazoo, all intended to prove that it's everyone else's fault. His blocks certainly haven't taught him a damned thing (''I've been blocked ''twice'', not five times, and both times the blocks were vindictive and not based on fact...'', as he claimed on his talk page) and I kind of doubt ArbCom sanctions would do more than provide him a martyrdom issue, either.

We'll see, I guess. So far, no other ArbCom members have weighed in, and depending on how they feel, this may be moot. <small>Note: Copied to Bishonen.</small> --] | ] 07:46, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Secondly, you'll notice that 85.100.72.198 only has 3 edits but somehow (and before I reverted him on the ] and ] articles, too). Should those two articles be semi-protected?

Dmcdevit, there is some uncertainly in the H.E. ArbCom case as to which diffs you'd referred in recommending I'd be sanctioned, as you'd only cited "evidence". I disagree with your proposed finding, but have little hope of speaking to all the diffs put forth in "evidence" in the requisite time.

Kind Regards,
I take exception to your mischaracterization as to my purported involvement and conduct, and am seeking for you to provide ''actual evidence'' to that effect so that others be able to verify your claims; that is, beyond the realm of speculation & superficial appearences.

:Um. Huh? How does "I am not sure you are " purport anything? You demand I provide evidence of my uncertainty?

How about you tone down the misplaced hostility. ]·] 19:12, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

:::I am not sure whether you are involved or not. That is a basic declarative sentence which does not question anything. I was just giving you a straightforward answer to the question posed.

:::::I am speaking plainly. There is no speculation involved, as I made clear; you are just playing with words because for some reason you have animosity towards either me or the Arbitration Committee as a whole or both. It isn't welcome. The courtesy of answering your question as posed, even if I didn't perform any further research, was clearly wasted. ]·] 21:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2024 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:07, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
