This noticeboard's primary purpose is to to attract the attention of the clerks to a particular matter by non-clerks. Non-clerks are welcome to comment on this page in the event that the clerks appear to have missed something.
Private matters
The clerks may be contacted privately, in the event a matter could not be prudently addressed publicly (i.e., on this page), by composing an email to clerks-l
lists.wikimedia.org; only the clerk team and individual arbitrators have access to emails sent to that list.
Procedures
A procedural reference for clerks (and arbitrators) is located here.
Pending actions
- Clerks and trainees, please coordinate your actions through this section, so that we don't have multiple clerks working on the same cases at the same time. An IRC channel, #wikipedia-en-arbcom-clerks, and a mailing list are also available, although the mailing list is low traffic and has a public archive.
To be opened
- Cases may be opened by clerks or trainees 24 hours after the fourth net vote to accept has been made.
Motions and temporary injunctions
- Motions and temporary injunctions are made by arbitrators on /Proposed decision. Temporary injunctions require 4 net support votes to pass (each "oppose" subtracts a "support"). Other motions have the same majority for passage as the case itself.
To be closed
- Cases may be closed by clerks or trainees after the fourth net vote to close, but generally wait at least 24 hours after the first motion to close. In cases where the arbitrators have disagreed and not all the findings or remedies have passed, wait at least 24 hours after the final close vote is cast to give other arbitrators a chance to raise objections.
- Homeopathy case now has a motion to close. As Coren has still not returned (what's up?), one of use will have to close. Nish should help the clerk that closes it as Ryan helped the last time. — Rlevse • Talk • 17:33, 26 June 2008 (UTC)...I'm willing to close it. — Rlevse • Talk • 17:35, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- I'm available, so I can help with the closing when the time comes. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 17:49, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
Reassignment/breaks
- Generally, the clerk or trainee who opens a case should follow the progress of the case and be available to answer questions from the parties. If for any reason you need someone to take over one or more of your current cases (too busy, wikibreak, etc.), post a request here.
Other work
- Discussion for all other and miscellaneous issues, that are not covered by the above sections, but are related to a particular case. Please note that general discussion related to the arbitration process and clerking should go to #General discussion, rather than here.
Active/Inactive Arbitrators
General list
- This list will be used to set the number of active Arbitrators and the case majority on cases as they open. As of May 16, 2008, there are 13 active Arbitrators, so the majority is 7 for new cases (that is, those accepted after the "as of" date). The master list is at WP:AC#Members.

Arbitrator announcements
- Arbitrators, please note if you wish to declare yourself active or away/inactive, either generally or for specific cases. The clerks will update the relevant cases as needed. If you are returning, please indicate whether you wish to be: 1) Put back to active on all cases; 2) Left on inactive on all open cases, and only put to active on new cases; or 3) Left to set yourself to active on cases you wish (remember to update the majority on its /Proposed decision).
- I will be away until July 1. I have marked myself as inactive on "C68-FM-SV" and "Giovanni33", and updated the case pages appropriately. Paul August ☎ 18:21, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
- Please move me to inactive on all cases, and put me on the inactive arbitrators list, due to extended illness that I'm dealing with. --Deskana (talk) 12:42, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
General discussion
Having had a bit of a chat with jvdb - here are some diff.s which are relevant to my case, which could maybe be 'filed' in someway with the rest of the case pages? (there are also, I think, two other requests filed, one by Avruch, and one by me - if that's salient at all....)
- The current discussion on the arb talk page
- discussion on the admin.s noticeboard re. vandalism
- discussion at the arb pages on the same subject.
feel free to file this info. as appropriate (if necessary in the round file on the floor! cheers, Privatemusings (talk) 03:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
