all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain.
 * Only items that receive a majority aye vote will be enacted.
 * Items that receive a majority nay vote will be formally rejected.
 * Items that do not receive a majority aye or nay vote will be open to possible amendment by any Arbitrator if he so  chooses. After the amendment process is complete, the item will be voted  on one last time.
 * Items that receive a majority abstentions will need to go through an amendment process and be re-voted on once.

Conditional votes for or against and abstentions should be explained by the  Arbitrator in parenthesis after his time-stamped signature. For example, an Arbitrator can state that he would only favor a particular remedy based  on whether or not another remedy/remedies were enacted.

There are 2 arbitrators recused and one inactive, so 5 is a majority.

2.1) Editors should take care to present each of the significant views on a  subject fairly. They should characterize disputes, making sure to not  assert any one position as correct. If we are to represent the dispute  fairly, we should present competing views in proportion to their  representation among experts on the subject, or among the concerned  parties. Reasonable persons who represent each of the major viewpoints  should be able to look at the resulting text and agree that their views  are presented sympathetically and as completely as possible (within the  context of the discussion). This is the essence of the NPOV policy.
