:Hmm -- "where you think it is likely they will continue to edit-war/continue the dispute" -- the rub there is that I haven't edited the article even once, so there are no grounds for thinking I might "continue" to edit-war. It seems pretty gratuitous... ] (]) 08:13, 26 August 2016 (UTC) :Hmm -- "where you think it is likely they will continue to edit-war/continue the dispute" -- the rub there is that I haven't edited the article even once, so there are no grounds for thinking I might "continue" to edit-war.

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Paul Singer (businessman)". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 7 June 2016.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Discretionary Sanctions

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Misplaced Pages. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

RE Disc Sanc templates

In short, yes that is how they are supposed to work. In long: Where there is a dispute over an article subject to discretionary sanctions, the template is used to warn an editor *where you think it is likely they will continue to edit-war/continue the dispute* in order to precede sanctions. You cant be punished for something you are not 'officially' aware of, so you are required to be notified officially of the sanctions so if the problem continues, they can be pointed at and said 'Look, they were aware of them!'. I make no comment on if it was deserved or not, just that that is how they are meant to be used. Only in death does duty end (talk) 08:10, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
