How to read the sections

[edit]
  • Decided: The calendar date (in UTC) when the case was decided. If the case did not reach a decision, it will be Closed instead. If the case involved an administrator "retiring", it will be "Deopped" instead.
  • Abbrev.: A shorthand abbreviation of the casename. See ArbCaseAbv for more details.
  • Type: The type of case it is:
  • Admin: A case centred around the conduct of one or more administrators.
  • Dispute: A case that examines an intractible dispute between two or more editors directly.
  • Editor: A case about the (non-administrative) misconduct of an editor.
  • Functionary: A case centred around misuse of Suppressor or Checkuser permissions.
  • Omnibus: A case about misconduct in a topic area writ large.
  • Other: Any case that doesn't fall into one of the categories above.
  • Scope: The overall scope of the case.
  • CT?: An indication of whether or not a case includes or included a discretionary sanctions or contentious topic remedy.
  • Remedy name: The name of the remedy (or a description of it, for earlier cases which did not have sectioned remedies).
  • Remedy (in modern terms): Basically my best attempt to explain, in plain English and modern understanding, what the remedy means.
  • If this section has a coloured background, the colour indicates its status or origin:
  • Yellow (#FFFF00) is a temporary injunction issued mid-case.
  • Blue (#00BFFF) is a post-close amendment or motion.
  • Red (#CD5C5C) is a remedy that has since been rescinded or otherwise is wholly reliant on previous remedies that are themselves rescinded.
  • Green (#32CD32) is a remedy whose wording was amended post-close, either due to an amendment/motion or due to changes in process (such as Discretionary Sanctions to Contentious Topic).
  • Brown (#D2691E) is suspended or in abeyence, usually as part of a period where a remedy has been appealed.
  • Amended/Enacted: If a remedy was added or amended post-close, this will be the calendar date (in UTC) when the remedy was modified or took effect.
  • Rescinded: If a remedy was terminated, this will be the calendar date (in UTC) when the remedy was ended.
  • Enforceable?: Indicates whether a given remedy can be invoked at WP:AE. Any remedy that predates April 2006 and was not still in force by then predates AE entirely.
  • Sup/Opp/Abs/Rcs: The vote totals for a remedy (Support, Oppose, Abstain, Recused).

Any case that has been courtesy-blanked or closed without action will be given a very brief description and nothing further.

Removal of personal attacks The "links & ties" material posted by Nobs01 on Talk:Chip Berlet or any other page may be removed by any user as personal attacks.

Modify Lyndon LaRouche 2 Cognition is subject to all the sanctions that were issued on Herschelkrustofsky in LaR2, excepting the siteban (which post-dates this case). (For reference, Cognition must edit from that account and no other, is topic-banned for 1yr from the LaRouche movement topic area, and is banned for 1yr from reinserting content which was removed for POV reasons.)
In addition, Chip Berlet, Political Research Associates, Dennis King, and their associated article talk pages are added to the LaRouche movement topic area by fiat.

After that ban expires, he may be re-banned for up to a year by consensus of at least three uninvolved administrators; if this happens his userspace, including talk pages, is to be fully-protected.
