Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Seabhcan/Proposed decision

all proposed

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.
 * 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 they so choose. 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, 0 Arbitrators are recused and 5 are inactive, so 5 votes are a majority. (8 active)

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.

Need non-political arbitrators
1) In the last Arbcom against MONGO, User:Fred Bauder wrote up the remedies for the Arbcom case, among them was:


 * "No action is taken against MONGO for any excessive zeal he has displayed." :Requests_for_arbitration/MONGO/Proposed_decision

The "excessive zeal" was for MONGOs WP:NPA violations against several wikipideans. Requests_for_arbitration/MONGO/Evidence

Some of the dispute betwen MONGO, Seabhcan, and many of the other people in this dispute have centered around Operation Gladio, User:Fred Bauder also has been involved in this dispute between MONGO and Seabhcan personally, deciding that Daniele Ganser who writes on Operation Gladio does not meet WP:RS after Seabhcan asked him to share his opinion, stating "Any American citizen can recognize the phony 9/11 bull." 

Daniele Ganser is also involved in 9/11 conspiracies, which is the center of the dispute between MONGO and Seabhcan. Both MONGO and Seabhcan gave there opinion on Articles for deletion/Daniele Ganser. Should User:Fred Bauder who thinks Daniele Ganser's view is "9/11 bull" decide an Arbcom case which central dispute is 9/11?

Suggestions


 * 1) If we are too get a completly impartial ArbCom ruling, User:Fred Bauder should recuse himself from this case.  Where can I suggest this? What are the formalities? I am not as familar with wikipolicy as other users.
 * 2) This case is a very headed debate that centers around US political issues, with several editors, branding Seabhcan as anti-American, including MONGO, MONGO wrote: " I ask of you is to stop insulting myself and other editors who don't appreciate your anti-American editing patterns"  and "nationalistic bias against American users". above To help get a completly impartial ArbCom ruling, ALL Admins who are involved with editing US political pages should not be involved in deciding this dispute.

Fred ignores the last arbcom ruling in which he stated: "No action is taken against MONGO for any excessive zeal he has displayed."

 * No basis exists for recusal. My input was at Seabhcan's request, see User_talk:Fred_Bauder/Archive_33. I have not been involved with the disputed articles or the dispute between the parties. Becoming greatly offended at an opinion offered at your own request is not grounds for recusal. Rulings in prior cases also are not a proper basis for recusal.

Why did you make a motion that you don't support, and clearly has no chance of passing (and which doesn't really even mandate anything)? Dmcdevit·t 05:22, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Party made the motion. Fred Bauder 19:59, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * You made the motion. The party is not an arbitrator. This is the proposed decision page, not the workshop. Dmcdevit·t 09:20, 11 December 2006 (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.

Administrators
1) Wikipedia administrators are trusted members of the community and are expected to follow Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Occasional lapses from optimal behavior are acceptable, but consistently poor judgement may result in desysopping. Administrators should in particular avoid actions that are likely to be disruptive. Administrators are not to use their tools in any dispute in which they are directly involved. They should not unblock themselves when blocked (unless in the case that their IP becomes accidentally blocked) or block others with whom they are in a dispute, and they should not protect pages in which they are involved in a conflict, or protect preferred versions of a page in a conflict. See Administrators, Blocking policy, and Protection policy.

Edit warring
2) Edit warring is considered harmful, because it causes ill-will between users and negatively destabilizes articles. Editors are encouraged to explore methods of dispute resolution. The three-revert rule is not an entitlement to any reverts at all.

5) Users, especially administrators and others who are involved in controversial decisions, are expected to respond to harassment, and legitimate criticism, in an appropriate way.

Editors who also edit on critical sites

Background issues
1) Opposing viewpoints regarding the cause of the Collapse of the World Trade Center, 9/11 conspiracy theories and similar controversies lie in the background of this dispute with Seabhcan and a number of other editors advancing conspiracy theories from an anti-American viewpoint and Mongo vigorously opposing what he considers "lunacy" and "ridiculous junk science"  and defending what he considers accurate characterizations.

MONGO's habitual over-reaction
6) MONGO was seriously harassed in the past, and has been harassed to some extent recently, both with respect to the off-wiki drama site, ED, and with respect to his efforts to fight against inclusion of unsourced and poorly sourced information regarding 9/11. In many instances he has reacted inappropriatly to such harassment and events, freely characterizing opponents in a derogatory manner and misusing and threatening to misuse his administrative tools. This has been compounded by failure to communicate appropriately with other administrators with respect to his problems and actions, Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive147.

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.''

It may be too early to post this, given the dynamics and changing conditional votes, but I'll try anyway. Will update as needed. 1) MONGO is desysopped (passes 6-0)
 * Status of remedies

2) Seabhcan is desysopped (passes 6-0)

3) Seabhcan is placed on personal attack parole (1 week max block) (fails 4-0 per conditional votes)

3.1) Seabhcan is placed on personal attack parole (24 hr max block) (passes 6-0)

4) MONGO placed on civility parole (24hr max block) (fails 1-5)

4.1) MONGO placed on civility parole (1 week max block) (fails 1-5)
