Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/KaintheScion et al./Proposed decision

all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain.
 * Only items that receive a majority "support" vote will be passed.
 * Items that receive a majority "oppose" vote will be formally rejected.
 * Items that do not receive a majority "support" or "oppose" 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.

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.

On this case, 1 Arbitrators is recused and 3 are inactive, so 5 votes are a majority.

Proposed wording to be modified by Arbitrators and then voted on. Non-arbitrators may comment on the talk page.
 * For all items:

Motions and requests by the parties
Why have I been included in a Request for Arbitration against KaintheScion and ElKabong?

I am not either. I do not use sockpuppets nor am I a sockpuppet.Enviroknot 03:22, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

After further reflection and seeing the hateful and wrong comments left by others regarding me, I formally REJECT this kangaroo court. Do what you will. I know you for what you are, hateful, horrid people who have no interest in the truth.Enviroknot 03:32, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Proposed temporary injunctions
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.

Sockpuppets
1) While is is permissible for a person to have several user accounts on Wikipedia, such accounts may be misused in a variety of ways. When there is uncertainty whether a party is one user with sockpuppets or several users with similar editing habits they may be treated as one user with sockpuppets, see Sock puppet
