== Arbitration motions regarding ''Palestine-Israel articles'' ==

The Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:
;]:
{{ivmbox|When imposing a ] under the ], an uninvolved administrator may require that appeals be heard only by the Arbitration Committee. In such cases, the committee will hear appeals at ARCA according to the ]. A rough consensus of arbitrators will be required to overturn or amend the sanction.}}

;]:
{{ivmbox|Uninvolved administrators may impose word limits on all participants in a discussion, or on individual editors across all discussions, within the area of conflict. These word limits are designated as part of the ] of restrictions within the ]. These restrictions must be logged and may be appealed in the same way as all contentious topic restrictions.}}

;]:
{{ivmbox|All participants in formal discussions (RfCs, RMs, etc) within the area of conflict are urged to keep their comments concise, and are limited to 1,000 words per discussion. This motion will ] two years from the date of its passage.}}

;]:
{{ivmbox|1=Following a request at ], the Arbitration Committee directs its clerks to open a case to examine the interaction of specific editors in the ] topic area. Subject to amendment by the drafting arbitrators, the following rules will govern the case:
* The case title will be '']''.
* The initial parties will be:
**{{User|BilledMammal}}
**{{User|Iskandar323}}
**{{User|Levivich}}
**{{User|Nableezy}}
**{{User|PeleYoetz}}
**{{User|Selfstudier}}
**{{User|האופה}}
* {{U|Aoidh}} will be the initial drafter
* The case will progress at the usual time table, unless additional parties are added or the complexity of the case warrants additional time for drafting a proposed decision, in which case the drafters may choose to extend the timeline.
* All case pages are to be semi-protected.
* Private evidence will be accepted. Any case submissions involving non-public information, including off-site accounts, should be directed to the Arbitration Committee by email to {{nospam|Arbcom-en|wikimedia.org}}. Any links to the English Misplaced Pages submitted as part of private evidence will be aggregated and posted on the evidence page. Any private evidence that is used to support a proposal (a finding of fact or remedy) or is otherwise deemed relevant to the case will be provided to affected parties when possible (evidence of off-wiki harassment may not be shared). Affected parties will be given an opportunity to respond.}}

;Addendum
In passing motion #5 to open a ''Palestine-Israel articles 5'' case, the Committee has appointed three drafters: ], ], and ]. The drafters have resolved that the case will open on November 30. The delay will allow the Committee time to resolve a related private matter, and allow for both outgoing and incoming Arbitrators to vote on the case. The drafters have changed the party list to the following individuals:

* {{User|BilledMammal}}
* {{User|Iskandar323}}
* {{User|Ïvana}}
* {{User|Levivich}}
* {{User|Nableezy}}
* {{User|Selfstudier}}
* {{User|האופה}}
* {{User|AndreJustAndre}}
* {{User|IOHANNVSVERVS}}
* {{User|Alaexis}}
* {{User|Zero0000}}
* {{User|Makeandtoss}}
* {{User|Snowstormfigorion}}

The drafters reserve the right to amend the list of parties if necessary. The drafters anticipate that the case will include a two week evidence phase, a one week workshop phase, and a two week proposed decision phase.

The related '']'' request has been folded into this case. Evidence from the related private matter, as alluded to in the '']'' case request, will be examined prior to the start of the case, and resolved separately.

Off-wiki misconduct in Palestine–Israel topic area

As previously announced, the Arbitration Committee received private evidence appearing to reflect off-wiki misconduct related to several editors in the Palestine–Israel topic area. The Committee sent a copy of the evidence to the users in question via email, notified them on their talk pages, and gave them an opportunity to respond. Based on the evidence and the responses, the matter has been resolved as follows:

For making edits in the Palestine–Israel topic area after off-wiki canvassing requests, and encouraging other users to game the extended confirmed restriction and engage in disruptive editing, Ïvana (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is indefinitely banned from Misplaced Pages. This ban may be appealed twelve months after the enactment of this remedy, and every twelve months thereafter.

2025 Arbitration Committee

The Arbitration Committee welcomes the following new and returning members following their election by the community. Their two-year terms formally begin on 1 January 2025:

The one-year terms of these members also begin on 1 January 2025:

Upon meeting the Wikimedia Foundation's criteria for access to non-public personal data and signing its corresponding confidentiality agreement, all incoming members will be subscribed to all Committee-managed email lists, assigned the CheckUser and Oversight permissions for use in office, and given access to the CheckUser and Oversight queues on the VRT system.

We also thank our outgoing colleagues, whose terms end on 31 December 2024:

Outgoing members are eligible to retain the CheckUser and Oversight permissions, to remain active on cases accepted before their term ended, and to remain subscribed to the functionaries' and arbitration clerks' mailing lists following their terms on the Arbitration Committee. To that effect:

  • Stewards are requested to remove the permission(s) noted from the following outgoing members, who have not chosen to retain them, after 31 December 2024:
    CheckUser: Firefly, L235
    Oversight: Firefly, Guerillero, L235, Moneytrees
  • Outgoing members are eligible to remain active on cases opened before their term ended if they wish. That will be noted on the proposed decision talk page of affected case(s).
  • All outgoing members will remain subscribed to the functionaries' mailing list.
  • All outgoing members will be unsubscribed from the clerks-l mailing list, with the exception of Firefly, Guerillero, and Moneytrees, who have chosen to remain subscribed.
