Arbitration report

Abortion and Betacommand 3 in evidence phase, three case requests outstanding

This week by the numbers; edits and page views.

Two cases remain open:

  • Abortion, which examines behavior related to what was mostly a naming dispute over pro-life and pro-choice articles. Now in its fourteenth week.
  • Betacommand 3, a review of the named editor's sanctions. Now in its second week.

Three requests for cases are also outstanding:

  • Russavia, Biophys, etc. – allegations of incivility between several editors who have previously been arbitrated on which grew out of a request for amendment.
  • Rich Farmbrough – it is alleged that he had been uncommunicative about his automated editing.
  • Unblocks and enabling – dispute over an unblock and if there is a "first mover" advantage for admin actions.

However at this time it looks like all of them will be declined. No clarification or amendment requests were finalized this week, with the possible exception of the Russavia-Biophys request that has been refiled as request for case.

This week also saw the opening of nominations in the ninth annual elections to the Arbitration Committee (see "News and notes").
