Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Ruy Lopez/Proposed decision

all proposed

After considering /Evidence and discussing proposals with other arbitrators, parties and others at /Workshop 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.
 * 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 she/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, 2 Arbitrators are recused and 1 is inactive, so 7 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
Place those on /Workshop.

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.

General

 * I suggest we merge this case with VeryVerily's appeal (e.g, close it and consider the same issues in that case). It appears to overlap in siginificant ways. What do you other arbitrators think? Raul654 01:57, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Motion to close

appears to have left Wikipedia, as shown by a note on his userpage on January 25, 2006. Because he has ceased editing, I move to close, subject to reactivation upon his return. Neutralitytalk 22:05, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Close. Neutralitytalk 22:05, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose closing. Ruy Lopez has used many sockpuppets, and in this case edited continuously using the sockpuppet "Mr. Know-It-All". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jayjg (talk • contribs)
 * What do you guys think about my suggestion above? Raul654 01:58, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
