Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Stevertigo 2/Proposed decision

After considering /Evidence and discussing proposals with other Arbitrators, parties and others at /Workshop, Arbitrators may place proposals which are ready for voting here. Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain. Only items that receive a majority "support" vote will be passed. Conditional votes for or against and abstentions should be explained by the Arbitrator before or after his/her time-stamped signature. For example, an Arbitrator can state that she/he would only favor a particular remedy based on whether or not another remedy/remedies were passed. Only Arbitrators or Clerks should edit this page; non-Arbitrators may comment on the talk page.

If observing editors notice any discrepancies between the arbitrators' tallies and the final decision or the, you should [&section=new post] to the Clerk talk page. Similarly, arbitrators may request clerk assistance via the same method.

Proposed motions
Arbitrators may place proposed motions affecting the case in this section for voting. Typical motions might be to close or dismiss a case without a full decision (a reason should normally be given), or to add an additional party (although this can also be done without a formal motion as long as the new party is on notice of the case). Suggestions by the parties or other non-arbitrators for motions or other requests should be placed on the /Workshop page for consideration and discussion. Motions have the same majority for passage as the final decision.

Proposed temporary injunctions
A temporary injunction is a directive from the Arbitration Committee that parties to the case, or other editors notified of the injunction, do or refrain from doing something while the case is pending.

Four net "support" votes needed to pass (each "oppose" vote subtracts a "support") 24 hours from the first vote is normally the fastest an injunction will be imposed.

Verifiability, reliable sources, and original research
1) One of Wikipedia's founding principles is that all information in Wikipedia articles must conform to the policies on verifiability and reliable sources. Wikipedia does not publish original research, which includes any analysis or synthesis of published material to advance a position not advanced by the sources.  An editor who adds material to an article must be able to cite reliable published sources that directly support the material as presented.

Accuracy of sourcing
1A) The contents of source materials must be presented accurately and fairly. By quoting from or citing to a source, an editor represents that the quoted or cited material fairly and accurately reflects or summarizes the contents and meaning of the original source, and that it is not being misleadingly or unfairly excerpted out of context.

Edit-warring
2) Edit-warring, whether by reversion or otherwise, is prohibited; this is so even when the disputed content is clearly problematic, with very limited exceptions. The three-revert rule does not entitle users to revert a page three times each day, nor does it endorse reverting as an editing technique.

Violation of policy

Previous sanctions
1) has been sanctioned in two prior arbitration proceedings, and additionally as the result of two separate community discussions:
 * 1) In the Stevertigo case, he was found to have "violated the three revert rule and edited a protected page to conform to his version,... used his power as an administrator to unblock himself a number of times, [and] blocked one of the administrators who was blocking him", and stripped of his administrator status.
 * 2) In the Obama articles case, he was found to have "engaged in edit-warring and... edit summary attacks", admonished, and placed under an editing restriction.
 * 3) Following Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/Stevertigo/September 2009, he was blocked for two weeks by, who cited "Disruptive editing: Misuse of wikipedia as a battle ground, refusal to abide by policy".
 * 4) Following Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/Stevertigo/September 2010, he was placed under an editing restriction by, who concluded that "Stevertigo is subject to a community imposed edit restriction of 1 revert per article per week, with indefinite duration".

 * Weak support. I find the ideas in this essay fuzzy-minded and in places very hard to follow. I'm less sure that the sort of abstract discussion that Stevertigo finds appropriate in concept articles would always be unverifiable or OR; perhaps there is a reliable source (such as a work of philosophy) that presents the concept in that way. But ultimately I agree that Stevertigo's approach has been an unhelpful one. (Note to the editor who asked on the workshop how one can address such an essay: the traditional answer has been to take them to MfD, and vote either to delete or to "userfy"; however, MfD standards in this area have been erratic, with many commenters opining that within limits essays as opposed to guidelines can properly express minority views.)

 * I can't support this as it is phrased now. I agree somehow with Carcharoth and believe that this FoF can be framed in a different way.

Stevertigo to be placed on probation
2) shall be placed on probation for a period and under conditions to be determined by the Arbitration Committee, effective on the completion of the ban imposed in remedy 1.  He is prohibited from returning to Wikipedia until the terms of this probation have been set, regardless of whether any other ban remains in place. Should Stevertigo wish to return to editing, he may contact the Arbitration Committee via email once six months have elapsed from the date of this decision.  The Committee will then open a discussion regarding the terms of his probation; this discussion may include the involvement of the community at an appropriate venue.  Should Stevertigo reject the terms offered by the Committee, he will be limited to one appeal every six months thereafter.

Stevertigo required to cite sources
3) is required to cite a published source for any material he adds to an article. Should Stevertigo fail to cite a published source, the added material may be removed by any editor.  Reverts made to enforce this provision are to be treated as reversions of obvious vandalism for the purposes of revert limitations and editing restrictions. Should Stevertigo cite a source that is subsequently determined not to support the material added, he may be blocked for a period of up to one week for each infraction.

The problem here is that Stevertigo has been unable to estimate when a statement should be sourced, and has failed to source them when disputed. &mdash; Coren (talk) 00:04, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Though noting that this in no way weakens the requirements for anyone to provide a source when something is validly challenged. As my opposition to the ban indicates, I would prefer a probationary period to be done first, with this sourcing requirement in place, before moving to a full ban, but that looks unlikely since the ban looks to be passing.

Implementation notes
''Clerks and Arbitrators should use this section to clarify their understanding of the final decision--at a minimum, a list of items that have passed. Additionally, a list of which remedies are conditional on others (for instance a ban that should only be implemented if a mentorship should fail), and so on. Arbitrators should not pass the motion until they are satisfied with the implementation notes.''

Vote
Important: Please ask the case clerk to author the implementation notes before initiating a motion to close, so that the final decision is clear.

''Four net "support" votes needed to close case (each "oppose" vote subtracts a "support"). 24 hours from the first motion is normally the fastest a case will close. The Clerks will close the case either immediately, or 24 hours after the fourth net support vote has been cast, depending on whether the arbitrators have voted unanimously on the entirety of the case's proposed decision or not.''

 * Support closure. Given that the decision is not unanimous, the closure should be about 24 hours from Kirill's vote, which should also give the one or two arbitrators who still wish to vote time to do so. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:52, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
