Template:ACMajority/doc

This template calculates how many arbitrators constitute an absolute majority in votes of the Arbitration Committee. The majority varies depending on how many arbitrators are active and inactive, and is further affected by abstention and recusal:

Usage
For motions, use the template as follows:

Otherwise, use:

active is the number of arbitrators active on the matter. For motions and similar, this is usually taken from Arbitration Committee/Members, except if the arbitrator explicitly indicates (in)activity for a vote or actually votes, and defaults to 15. For open cases, this is taken from the list of active and inactive arbitrators on the Proposed Decision talk page. Note: the number of inactive arbitrators is not included in this template, as the active count is sufficient for the purposes of this template.

recused is the number of arbitrators who have recused.

abstain is the number of arbitrators who have abstained from the vote. This value will be included in the statement for motion (not proposed decision) votes where the abstention table is hidden.

For use on motions, include an additional parameter of yes which replaces "this case" with "the purposes of this (or these) motion(s)" and hides the abstentions table. Use plural if using in a section with multiple motions, to display "this (or these) motion(s)" instead of "this motion".

yes can be used to hide the table whilst not using the 'for the purpose of this motion' variant of the text.
