Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Irishpunktom/Proposed decision

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

all proposed

After considering /Evidence and discussing proposals with other arbitrators, parties and others at /Workshop place proposals which are ready for voting here.

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 she/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 4 are inactive, so 6 votes are a majority.

For all items

Proposed wording to be modified by Arbitrators and then voted on. Non-Arbitrators may comment on the talk page.

Motions and requests by the parties[edit]

Place those on /Workshop.

Proposed temporary injunctions[edit]

Four net "support" votes needed to pass (each "oppose" vote subtracts a "support")
24 hours from the first vote is normally the fastest an injunction will be imposed.

Proposed final decision[edit]

Proposed principles[edit]

Edit warring[edit]

1) Edit warring is considered harmful, because it causes ill-will between users and negatively destabilizes articles. Editors are encouraged to explore alternate methods of dispute resolution.

3RR[edit]

2) The three-revert rule, which allows administrators to block for more than three content reverts in a single article in 24 hours, is not to be interpreted as an entitlement to three content reverts per article daily. Editors are not to edit disruptively, whether that is fewer than three reverts or not, and consistently making three reverts in a day, or otherwise using reverts instead of more productive editing means, constitutes disruption.

Administrators[edit]

3) Administrators are trusted members of the Wikipedia community and are expected to show good judgment. Administrators should in particular avoid actions that are likely to be disruptive. Administrators are not to use their tools in any dispute in which they are directly involved. They should not unblock themselves when blocked (unless in hte case that their IP becomes accidentally blocked) and they should not protect pages in which they are involved in a conflict, or protect preferred versions of a page in a conflict. See Wikipedia:Administrators, Wikipedia:Blocking policy, and Wikipedia:Protection policy.

Irishpunktom feels he is entitled to revert[edit]

2) Irishpunktom's habit of making 3 edits in 24 hours to game the WP:3RR (eg [1]), consistent lack of helpful edit summary or justification when reverting (often simply "rv" [2], [3], etc.), and comments like "self revert - gotta wait an hour or so" show Irishpunktom has a clear sense of entitlement to reverts and perceives reverting as a valid editing method.

Dbiv abuses his admin tools[edit]

5) After being blocked for a 3RR violation, Dbiv used his administrator status to unblock his own account[6], an explicit violation of the blocking policy. During the course of an edit war with Irishpunktom on Peter Tatchell, Dbiv reverted to his preferred version[7] and then protected the article[8], an explicit violation of the protection policy. During the course of his long-term edit war with Irishpunktom, Dbiv has consistently used his administrative rollback tool to revert Irishpunktom's and others' non-vandalism, good faith content edits.[9]

Dbiv's administrative status restricted[edit]

6) For one year, Dbiv is explicitly prohibited from unblocking himself for any reason, from using protection on any page to which he has made non-minor edits, or to which Irishpunktom or anyone else with which he has had significant conflict has made non-minor edits, from blocking Irishpunktom or anyone else with which he has had significant conflict, from using rollback in any non-vandalism situations other than to revert himself, or from taking any administrative action regarding a conflict in which he is personally involved. He may be blocked for up to 24 hours for each violation.

Support:
  1. "Administrative Probation" amounts to nothing more than a warning, when the consequence is that we may rehear his case. This remedy is designed to firmly restrict him from things he is already prohibited from doing as an administrator, but it has teeth. Dmcdevit·t 23:28, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Administrative probation is intended to have teeth. Fred Bauder 03:48, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Making this a specific restriction on one sysop suggests that it does not already apply to all. What happened to common sense? Prescriptivism, thy name is Wikipedia. James F. (talk) 21:14, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    "Disruption" is not already forbidden? Should we revoke all current probations? "Personal attacks" are not already forbidden? Should we revoke all current personal attack paroles. Etcetera. The point being, while both are already prohibited, probation/parole gives administrators an uncontroversial, within-process way of dealing with them, where they didn't have one before (and so it escalated to arbitration). It does not suggest that disruption, personal attacks, etc. are not already forbidden to all. This does the same. It just gives admins a way of dealing with it cleanly.

Article ban lifted from Peter Tatchell and replaced with probation[edit]

7) The article ban (remedy 1) for Dbiv (talk · contribs) and Irishpunktom (talk · contribs) from Peter Tatchell is lifted, and replaced with Probation for Dbiv also. Any administrator, in the exercise of their judgement for reasonable cause, may ban Dbiv from any page which he disrupts by inappropriate editing. He must be notified on his talk page of any bans, and a note must also placed on WP:AN/I. Violations of these bans or paroles imposed shall be enforced by appropriate blocks, up to a month in the event of repeat violations. All bans are to be logged at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Irishpunktom#Log of blocks and bans.

  3. I would have preferred revert parole because probation enforcement results in, well, article bans, but I'll settle for this, since it seems I'm the only one. Dmcdevit·t 05:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed enforcement[edit]

Enforcement by block[edit]

1) Should Irishpunktom, Dbiv, or Karl Meier violate any ban or parole, he may be briefly blocked, up to a week in the case of repeat offenses. After 5 blocks the maximum block shall increase to one year. A record of all blocks shall be kept at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Irishpunktom#Log of blocks and bans.

Discussion by Arbitrators[edit]

General[edit]

Motion to close[edit]

Implementation notes[edit]

Clerks and arbitrators should use this section to clarify their understanding of the final decision--at a minimum, a list of items that have passed. Additionally, a list of which remedies are conditional on others (for instance a ban that should only be implemented if a mentorship should fail), and so on. Arbitrators should not pass the motion until they are satisfied with the implementation notes.

Vote[edit]

Four net "support" votes needed to close case (each "oppose" vote subtracts a "support")
24 hours from the first motion is normally the fastest a case will close.

  1. Move to close. Neutralitytalk 19:03, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose, need to reconsider remedies for Dbiv Fred Bauder 12:00, 4 August 2006 (UTC) My concern is based on this edit confirmed by checkuser Fred Bauder 16:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose, agree with Fred. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 09:49, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Move to close a second time, now stronger remedies applied. Sam Korn (smoddy) 21:51, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
