re Mantanmoreland ArbCom

Hi. I have noted your comments restricting M to one account, and various sanctions. I wonder if you have considered extending your wordings to encompass editing under ip addresses, and the effect on the sanctions applied to the remaining account? My work in the workshop on my own proposals is a little stale - otherwise I would add it myself - but your section is still active so I thought I would suggest it to you. Cheers.

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Free Republic amended

In light of continued disputes, remedy 4 adopted in Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Free Republic is amended by adding:

"Additionally, any uninvolved administrator may impose a reasonable editing restriction (for example, 1RR) or page ban upon any editor who repeatedly engages in disruptive or uncivil editing of Free Republic or any closely related page. Prior to imposing such a ban or restriction, a warning should be given on the affected user's talkpage. All bans and restrictions shall be logged at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Free Republic#Log of blocks and bans."

All editors, particularly including single purpose accounts and editors who have or may reasonably be perceived as having a conflict of interest, are strongly urged to edit Free Republic and related articles only in conformity with all Wikipedia policies and with this committee's prior decision. If the enhanced administrator authority provided in this ruling does not improve the situation on this article after 30 days, a request for a more formal Arbitration Committee review may be submitted.

Bold is her protection, Reds are your disallowed edits. You need to go back to the last pre-pp version, this one. You probably just missed it off timing. Lawrence § t/e 20:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I think I got them all now. Thanks for letting me know. Crum375 (talk) 21:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Waterboarding RfM

A Request for Mediation has been filed on the Waterboarding article concerning the content dispute in the first six words of the article. You have been named as a party and your participation would be appreciated. I believe this is the best approach to an amicable resolution of the dispute. Please indicate your agreement here. Thank you. Neutral Good (talk) 20:18, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

The results of the third sockpuppet investigation in the history of this content dispute may be found here. Some editors, and even an administrator, are using the unresolved sockpuppet accusation as an excuse to dodge mediation. So that excuse no longer exists.
