Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log/2017

This is the central log for all sanctions issued pursuant to an Arbitration Committee contentious topics remedy in 2017 as well as any appeals or modifications made to sanctions issued in 2017.

The required information is the user or page the sanction is being applied to, enforcing administrator, date, nature of sanction, including expiry date (if applicable), basis or context (such as link to AE request), and a diff of the user notification (if applicable).

“ All sanctions and page restrictions must be logged by the administrator who applied the sanction or page restriction at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log. Whenever a sanction or page restriction is appealed or modified, the administrator amending it must append a note recording the amendment to the original log entry.

To be valid, sanctions must be clearly and unambiguously labelled as an arbitration enforcement action (such as with "arbitration enforcement", "arb enforcement", "AE" or "WP:AE" in the Wikipedia log entry or the edit summary). If a sanction has been logged as an arbitration enforcement action but has not been clearly labelled as an arbitration enforcement action any uninvolved administrator may amend the sanction (for example, a null edit or reblocking with the same settings) on behalf of the original administrator. Labelling a sanction which has been logged does not make the administrator who added the label the "enforcing administrator" unless there is confusion as to who intended the sanction be arbitration enforcement.

A central log of all page restrictions and sanctions (including blocks, bans, page protections or other restrictions) placed as arbitration enforcement (including contentious topic restrictions) is to be maintained by the Committee and its clerks at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log.

• The Committee should probably be made aware that I have taken it upon myself to 500/30 tens of articles—more so than it would be practical to log on here. From every significant settlement to every Palestinian refugee camp, to operations, battles, biographies, and more. My aim has largely been preventative (with "reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict" as my guiding principle). For most of these, please refer to my May protection log.
