Template:Casenav/data/doc

This child template contains all relevant data on open arbitration cases displayed by Casenav. Data can be deleted here once a case has closed. When opening a case, add the parameters between the  tags under the top line, adding the exact casename before the dashes and providing the known values as indicated.

(For the list of arbitrators by activity to be used in new cases, see Arbitration Committee; copy and paste, keeping the links and removing the indenting colons. If there are no Recused: arbitrators, this heading should be omitted from the -list=.)

After adding the data, ensure that Casenav is placed at the top of each case page and case talk page.

When an Arbitrator becomes active or inactive, they usually do so on multiple cases. This template makes it possible for a Clerk to update the tallies and lists of active/inactive arbitrators for all cases at once.
 * Updating activity levels

Please note that Arbitrators sometimes deal differently with the transition from away/inactive to active status, depending on how long they were away, how many cases are pending at the time, and personal preferences. For example, one arbitrator might ask to be moved to active on all pending cases, while another might choose to become active only on new cases accepted after returning, or only on cases where they actually vote on the decision. If the arbitrator's desire is unclear, they should be queried. The one definite rule is that an arbitrator must be listed as active on any case where they voted on the proposed decision.

The Clerk who closes the case should substitute the closed casenav template on each case page at the time of closing with {{subst:Casenav/closed}}. This will hardcode the values onto the relevant pages. Please then ensure that the data is properly hardcoded on the case pages. However, as of February 2012, you should not remove a closed case from this data template until it is removed entirely (ie from the Recently closed section) of Template:ACOT. When removing the final case from this template, do not remove the top safesubst: line and the closing brackets below the parameters.
 * Closing cases

If there are no drafting arbitrators on a case it shows up on case pages as "TBD". The option can be used to replace the default text. }}
