Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Anthony DiPierro 2/Proposed decision

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or abstain.

  • Only items that receive a majority aye vote will be enacted.
  • Items that receive a majority nay vote will be formally rejected.
  • Items that do not receive a majority aye or nay 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 enacted.

On this case, 5 Arbitrators are recused and 1 is inactive, so 4 votes are a majority.

For all items

Proposed wording to be modified by Arbitrators and then voted on.

Motions and requests by the parties[edit]

Place those on the discussion page.

Proposed temporary injunctions[edit]

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

Proposed final decision[edit]

Proposed principles[edit]

Userpages[edit]

1) A user may say whatever he/she wants on his/her user page within reason (e.g. Wikipedia:No personal attacks). However, Wikipedia is not a hosting service, and you should generally avoid any substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia. (See Wikipedia:Userpage.)

Deletion of content from userspace[edit]

Previous arbitration[edit]

6) There was a previous arbitration concerning Anthony DiPierro, see Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Anthony DiPierro. Evidence concerning Wikipedia:Votes for deletion are at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Anthony DiPierro/Evidence. Other evidence is at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Anthony DiPierro/Old evidence. The decision, at Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Anthony_DiPierro#Decision provided:

1. The arbitration committee instructs Anthony to refrain from playing around and making provocative edits on VfD and associated pages. The arbitration committee does not object to which way Anthony voted, only the manner in which he voted.

2. The issues of Anthony's reverts and alleged trolling are referred to the mediation committee.

Settlement of previous arbitration by agreement[edit]

Provisions of the settlement agreement[edit]

8) "If Anthony should, for any reason, make a provocactive edit (that is, an edit which is "trolling", "disruptive", and/or "antisocial" as interpreted by an admin) or engage in an edit war, an admin, may at his discretion, block Anthony for a period of 24 hours, not subject to the normal warnings and protections afforded other users.

At six month intervals, three members of the mediation committee (enumerated below) should vote on whether or not Anthony has reformed. If two or more of those members should agree that Anthony has reformed, this agreement is considered fullfilled and over. Otherwise, the agreement should be renewed for another six months. Should one of those members leave, Anthony and Raul654 must agree on a replacement (who must be a member of the mediation commitee).

If Anthony should attempt to evade a ban or block (for any reason), he is considered in breach of this agreement and subject to immediate arbitration.

If at any time Anthony feels that this agreement is unduly restrictive of his ability to make clearly legitimate edits, he may withdraw from the agreement and go directly to arbitration."

Six month review[edit]

Abstain:
  1. Fred Bauder 22:15, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC) I think we need to see some recent evidence before a remedy limiting his general editing is approved.

Proposed remedies[edit]

Note: All remedies that refer to a period of time, for example to a ban of X months or a revert parole of Y months, are to run concurrently unless otherwise stated.

Revert limitation[edit]

1) Anthony DiPierro is limited to one revert (per article) per twenty-four hour period for a period of three months. Violations of this shall be treated as violations of the three-revert rule, and shall cause the three months to reset.

Aye:
  1. I note that Anthony has previously stated he would be willing to abide by this. See [7]. -- Grunt 🇪🇺 22:14, 2005 Mar 7 (UTC)

Recreation limitation[edit]

2) Anthony DiPierro is instructed that if a page is properly deleted via votes for deletion and votes for undeletion fails to get the article recreated then he is not permitted to recreate that article in any namespace on Wikipedia for a period of three months after the vote for undeletion fails. Any violation of this rule will be a candidate for speedy deletion.

Nay:
  1. Nohat 20:08, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC) I don't think there are any substantive harms to Wikipedia, whether financial, as in the usage of storage and bandwidth, or reputational, as in the inclusion of content which has been deemed inappropriate, in harboring deleted articles in user namespace subpages, as long as those articles aren't actively linked to or from articles in the main namespaces. If there are more than a handful of such pages harbored in user subpages, then I would consider it to be a violation of the "Wikipedia is not a hosting service" policy, but harboring a small number of such pages has no potential for substantial harm.
  2. I'm pulling my support for this because we've basically affirmed above that users are most likely allowed to recreate deleted material in userspace. -- Grunt 🇪🇺 17:56, 2005 Mar 15 (UTC)

Bans for disruption[edit]

3) If Anthony should, for any reason, make a provocative edit (that is, an edit which is "trolling", "disruptive", and/or "antisocial" as interpreted by an admin) or engage in an edit war, an admin, may at his discretion, block Anthony for a period of 24 hours.

Ban from editing the Wikipedia namespace[edit]

4) Anthony DiPierro is banned from editing in the Wikipedia namespace for a period of one year due to the fact that almost all the disputed behavior he has engaged in has occurred in that namespace. Edits to requests for arbitration, mediation, and RfCs that he is involved in are excepted. Also if Anthony's behaviour is being disccused on a page in the Wikipedia namespace then he is permitted to put one post where he can explain his actions and invite people to come to his talk page to discuss things. Note that Anthony is not permitted to initiate such discussions, he is only allowed to respond to them.

Should he violate this order, he may be blocked for up to a week by an administrator. After 3 months he can appeal to the ArbCom to review the matter and the ArbCom can then choose to keep or modify the order.

Nay:
  1. This is too extreme, and there's no associated FoF. -- Grunt 🇪🇺
The FoF is built in and implied by all the evidence (which massively refers to pages in the Wikipedia namespace). This is not 'extreme' given the huge amount of disruption caused and the paucity of edits that actually improve the encyclopedia. Remember, we are here to create an encyclopedia first and foremost and that is something that Anthony is not helping much with by concentrating nearly all his efforts in editing the Wikipedia and Wikipedia talk namespaces (not to mention the huge amounts of wasted time by others that are trying to work toward our primary goal). Hopefully this will steer him into the right direction and away from further disruption (thus possibly avoiding what seems inevitable without this remedy - Anthony 3). --mav 22:32, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Abstain:
  1. I'm concerned about the wording. What if someone goes to the village pump or the administrator's noticeboard and complains there that Anthony is doing something they don't like? As it stands he can't defend himself or explain his actions. Theresa Knott (ask the rotten) 22:08, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
