Arbitration report
The Report on Lengthy Litigation
The Arbitration Committee did not open or close any cases this week, leaving four currently open.
Evidence phase
- Piotrus 2: A second case involving alleged edit warring and other misconduct by Piotrus and other editors. Piotrus denies the allegations against him, and suggests that the case may be a deliberate attempt to drive him from the site.
- Sarah Palin protection wheel war: A case involving allegations of wheel-warring on the Sarah Palin article, over a dispute as to the merits of page protection being applied in respect of it.
- SlimVirgin-Lar: A case brought by Thatcher, asking the committee to review the use of checkuser by Lar, in the light of comments by SlimVirgin (here, inter alia), alleging that he misused the tool. Evidence is to be submitted privately to the committee by e-mail, and voting will presumably occur privately as well.
Motion to close
- C68-FM-SV: A case, which has lasted for over four months, involving disputes among Cla68, FeloniousMonk, SlimVirgin, JzG, and others. If closed, a decision would be enacted which sets out a number of principles and findings of fact, and instructs the parties to review and abide by them, giving a number of prohibited courses of conduct by way of example. FeloniousMonk would also be desysopped.
