Misplaced Pages:Resolving disputes contains the official policy on dispute resolution for English Misplaced Pages. Arbitration is generally the last step for user conduct-related disputes that cannot be resolved through discussion on noticeboards or by asking the community its opinion on the matter.

This page is the central location for discussing the various requests for arbitration processes. Requesting that a case be taken up here isn't likely to help you, but editors active in the dispute resolution community should be able to assist.

Statement by Rich Farmbrough

I submit that the following remedies are outdated, and therefore:

clutter the list of discretionary sanctions and article probations.
provide unnecessary complexity and instruction creep.
place unwelcoming templates on article talk pages.

None of these remedies have been invoked for several years, if ever, one case has no admin action for nine years.

I have no doubt that there are other outdated remedies but these certainly are.

I propose that these remedies be struck

@Roger

Delaying this for a short while is not a problem, though it is often better to break large tasks down, rather than heaping them up.
I would be interested to hear about this other initiative. It might have been worth pinging me about it, given the discretionary sanctions clear up I initiated last year.
It would be useful to explain why, for example, the log of admin actions ends in 2010 (Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/The Troubles#2010): if there are four more years of undocumented admin actions, then this is a significant problem in its own right.
Note in regard to Armenia Azerbaijan 2 that DS notifications are not counted as admin actions, as any editor may make a DS notification.

All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 05:09, 22 March 2015 (UTC).

Thanks T Canens, I have just found that log. I mentally threw my hands up in despair. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 05:25, 22 March 2015 (UTC).

@AGK - making it a table is a moment's work, unfortunately one that I am not allowed to perform here. I have created a table at Meta:User:Rich Farmbrough/Article probation. Feel free to import it, with attribution. You could, of course, have made the table yourself, instead of complaining about it. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 05:09, 22 March 2015 (UTC).

Comment by T. Canens

@Rich Farmbrough: The Troubles and ARBAA2 discretionary sanctions logs were moved to the centralized WP:DSLOG. T. Canens (talk) 05:21, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions/article probation: Clerk notes

@NativeForeigner: This is the work in progress, plus I believe Roger has a copy on the arbwiki. Or are talking about page in (onwiki) arbspace? Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:29, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Rich Farmbrough and Rich: I think I've got all of the old article probation remedies there but if you find any other please do let me know (I was only working from the list at WP:GS so I may have missed some which aren't logged there). Chuck them on the talk page and I can stick them into the table if you can't. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:36, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
- Roger, I agree with both points. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:50, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions/article probation: Arbitrator views and discussion

Comment: Thanks for looking at this, Rich. As there is another initiative afoot to tidy up old sanctions, it's best I think to combine this one, and that one, along with other amendments in a single housekeeping motion in a couple of month's time. We probably need to tidy up some of the old cases and that can be done then too. I don't agree with all your analyses incidentally: DS for The Troubles was used last December and Armenia-Azerbaijan 2 yesterday. Roger Davies 04:29, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Callanecc and NativeForeigner: I'd rather we didn't do anything on-wiki until we have all time to actively participate in it. There is also a risk that this will all creep into a big deal, when in fact it all looks routine. After the very major review last year, that seems unnecessary. Best we turn to this again once we have the two current (and likely messy) cases out of the way, Roger Davies 12:39, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
Comment: I'd also rather wait and do it all at once. Dougweller (talk) 10:14, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
Decline per above, and I would suggest this would have been tidier submitted in a table. AGK 00:44, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
Decline. Quite a few of these are still useful. All of them are harmless, and we're going to do a cleanup later this year. Courcelles (talk) 05:21, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
Decline for now per my colleagues, but we will look at these suggestions as part of the cleanup in a couple of months. Thryduulf (talk) 13:21, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
Decline --Guerillero | Parlez Moi 17:09, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
Might be good to actually set up another subpage for the upcoming tidying initiative. NativeForeigner 00:50, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

@Callanecc and Roger Davies:. Seems reasonable, let's try and get it up a bit before we actually plan to action it for community comment. That being said with the current two cases + incoming (possible) case at ARCA, it might be a bit. NativeForeigner 23:21, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Motion: Dreadstar desysopped (March 2015)

Original discussion

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

For conduct unbecoming an administrator, namely

sending an insulting e-mail to an editor he had just sanctioned,
edit warring on an article and then protecting his preferred version, and
lifting an arbitration enforcement block out of process,

Dreadstar (talk · contribs) is desysopped. He may regain the tools at any time via a successful request for adminship.

For this motion there are 14 active arbitrators. With 0 arbitrators abstaining, 8 support or oppose votes are a majority.

Unfortunate but necessary. Seraphimblade 19:48, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
Every last one of these would be worth a desysop, really. In conjunction, no other choice is possible. Courcelles (talk) 19:49, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
This vote is based on actions 1 and 3, because, as indicated above, I'm recused with respect to action 2. Thryduulf (talk) 19:51, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

Page length

Misplaced Pages talk:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Infoboxes is so extraordinarily long. Since it's separate discussions from the original case and from multiple requests for clarification/amendment/etc., would it be reasonable to split off the discussions into subpages that would be linked from the main talk page?

Don't listen to @SPACKlick:. The arbs and especially Bishonen have it right. SPACKlick has been filibustering a discussion at Talk:Islamic calendar for three months. We now have a consensus that the description "Muhammad forbidding intercalation" is wrong but SPACKlick has reverted "no consensus". With RfC/U now defunct and DRN unlikely to lead anywhere, how about unprotecting the Arbitration/requests page? 87.81.147.76 (talk) 11:35, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
