Request for clarification: Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Kosovo

Statement by AGK

Further to the confusion generated in this request for arbitration enforcement, I request that the Committee clarify which of the contradictory enforcement provisions of Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Kosovo#Enforcement should be used. Is enforcement 1) or enforcement 2) the one that the community can enforce? AGK [] 14:42, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Xeno: In order to ensure that all authoratitive Committee decision pages are kept updated, could we strike the enforcement provisions of Kosovo and place a note underneath noting that they are, as a practical matter, superseded by the other case decision? AGK [] 09:27, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitrator views and discussion

  • Hmm... On a plain reading, those remedies seem to apply only to "parties of [the Kosovo] case"; and unless Alinor edited under a different username in 2006, s/he was not a party to that case.
    In any case, Newyorkbrad suggested that the more recent WP:ARBMAC decision be leveraged instead, and it appears this was done. –xenotalk 15:05, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    @AGK: The enforcement provisions still affect parties to the case, though it seems there is only one remedy that is still in effect (and that user has seemingly not edited since 2008). Though it would probably be a good idea to tuck a pointer to the ARBMAC decision in there somewhere - Kosovo is already noted as superseded by Macedonia at Wikipedia:General sanctions#Superseded sanctions. –xenotalk 14:02, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I too concur with Xeno and his (and AGK's) suggestino of a cross-reference. Risker (talk) 15:53, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Me too.. um.. three.. ur.. four (oh never mind!)... or in long, I agree with Xeno and his/AGK's Suggestion of a cross-reference.. SirFozzie (talk) 19:28, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Me five-ish? The cross-ref idea seems a good one. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 15:22, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
