In the course of these disputes, many of the editors involved have acted in some manner that violates Misplaced Pages policy; this includes both occasional editors as well as some of the primary producers of content on the topic.

Revision as of 20:11, 8 June 2007

After considering /Evidence and discussing proposals with other arbitrators, parties and others at /Workshop, arbitrators may place proposals which are ready for voting here. Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain. Only items that receive a majority "support" vote will be passed. Conditional votes for or against and abstentions should be explained by the arbitrator before or after his/her time-stamped signature. For example, an arbitrator can state that she/he would only favor a particular remedy based on whether or not another remedy/remedies were passed. Only arbitrators or clerks should edit this page, non-arbitrators may comment on the talk page.

For this case, there are 10 active arbitrators of whom none are recused, so 6 votes are a majority.

Motions and requests by the parties

Place those on /Workshop. Motions which are accepted for consideration and which require a vote will be placed here by the arbitrators for voting.
Motions have the same majority for passage as the final decision.

Probation and parole

2) All articles which relate to Eastern Europe, liberally defined, are placed on general probation and parole. Any uninvolved administrator may ban any editor from any set of such articles—ranging from a single article to the entire topic area—for any length of time up to one year. Administrators may, at their discretion, apply a revert or civility parole rather than an outright ban; such a parole applies to the same range of articles that the ban would have covered. All bans and paroles are to be logged at Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Piotrus#Log_of_blocks_and_bans. Sanctions imposed under this remedy may be appealed to the Committee.

Discussion by arbitrators

General

Motion to close

Implementation notes

Clerks and arbitrators should use this section to clarify their understanding of the final decision--at a minimum, a list of items that have passed. Additionally, a list of which remedies are conditional on others (for instance a ban that should only be implemented if a mentorship should fail), and so on. Arbitrators should not pass the motion until they are satisfied with the implementation notes.

Vote

Four net "support" votes needed to close case (each "oppose" vote subtracts a "support")
24 hours from the first motion is normally the fastest a case will close.
