Motion regarding activity levels for holders of both CU and OS tools

The current section in the 'CheckUser/Oversight permissions and inactivity' section of the Arbitration Committee's Procedures document (adopted 30 March 2011, amended 11 March 2013) is modified as follows in relation to those who hold both CheckUser and Oversight permissions:

Either text A or text B, whichever gains the greater support, to be inserted before the section beginning 'Holders who do not comply with the activity and expectation requirements'.

For this motion there are 12 active arbitrators. With 0 arbitrators abstaining, 7 support or oppose votes are a majority.

• (A) Holders of both CheckUser and Oversight permissions are expected to maintain the required activity levels on both tools. If the activity levels on any tool falls below the required level, the holder may have that permission removed by the Arbitration Committee.

Abstain

• (B) Holders of both CheckUser and Oversight permissions are expected to maintain the required activity levels on at least one of the tools. If the activity levels on both tools falls below the required level, the holder may have those permissions removed by the Arbitration Committee.

Discussion by arbitrators

This motion is proposed to clarify a potential ambiguity in the current wording regarding activity levels for holders of the CU and OS tools. For holders of both tools, some arbitrators are reluctant to remove one set of tools if someone is only maintaining activity with the other set of tools. Conversely, some interpret the current wording to mean that tools should be removed for inactivity regardless of whether someone is actively using the other set of tools. Since this does not require private discussion, I have proposed this motion here and will ask for input from the functionary team (i.e. those who use the tools), the rest of arbitration committee (i.e. those tasked with enforcing these activity requirements) and the wider community. I have no strong views either way, and I've not voted yet, as I first want to see what the consensus view is from the functionary team and others and have created discussion sections below. Discussion should be held open for at least a week to ensure everyone who needs to has seen this proposal and has had a chance to comment. Carcharoth (talk) 01:24, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
