Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/JarlaxleArtemis/Proposed decision

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain.

  • Only items that receive a majority "support" vote will be passed.
  • Items that receive a majority "oppose" vote will be formally rejected.
  • Items that do not receive a majority "support" or "oppose" vote will be open to possible amendment by any Arbitrator if he so chooses. After the amendment process is complete, the item will be voted on one last time.

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.

On this case, 0 Arbitrators are recused and 1 is inactive, so 6 votes are a majority.

For all items

Proposed wording to be modified by Arbitrators and then voted on.

[edit] Civility

2) Wikipedia users are expected to behave civilly and calmly in their dealings with other users. If disputes arise, users are expected to utilise dispute resolution procedures instead of merely attacking each other.

[edit] Consensus

3) As put forward in Wikipedia:Dispute resolution, Wikipedia works by building consensus. This is done through the use of polite discussion, in an attempt to develop a consensus regarding proper application of Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines such as Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. Surveys and the Request for comment process are designed to assist consensus-building when normal talk page communication has not worked.

[edit] Edit summaries

4) Editors are generally expected to provide appropriate edit summaries for their edits; failing to provide edit summaries for potentially contentious edits, or providing misleading edit summaries, is considered incivil and bad wikiquette.

[edit] Talk pages

5) Article talk pages on Wikipedia are for discussion of the article, what information might properly be included in the article, and sources of information regarding the subject; they are not forums for debate of the topic or issues related to the topic except where such debate has a potential impact on the content of the article. Adding large amounts of material to talk pages which does not relate to the article in the fashion above is considered inappropriate.

[edit] Ignorance of Wikipedia policy

3) JarlaxleArtemis's above actions, among others, do not appear to arise out of malice, but instead are apparently a result of ignorance of Wikipedia policies.

  1. →Raul654 04:58, Mar 15, 2005 (UTC) - His understanding of copyright law may be bad, but I'm not sure about the rest of his motives

[edit] Proposed remedies

Note: All remedies that refer to a period of time, for example to a ban of X months or a revert parole of Y months, are to run concurrently unless otherwise stated.

[edit] Requirement to read policies

1) JarlaxleArtemis is required to read and understand the Wikipedia policies he has violated, including Wikipedia:No personal attacks, Wikipedia:Image copyright tags, and Wikipedia:Copyright FAQ. Once he has done so he shall, on the wiki, prepare and sign a statement that he has done so and present it to the Arbitration Committee. He shall not be permitted to edit outside the Wikipedia namespace or his userspace until he has done so.

Support:

[edit] Proposed enforcement

[edit] Bans for continued ignorance of policy

1) If JarlaxleArtemis, within a period of three months after having provided the above statement, continues to make edits that an adminstrator feels ignore Wikipedia policy in the fashion outlined above, he may be be banned for a short period of time (up to one day) and reminded to review the policy he has violated.
