UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration

While the wiki community attempts to work on the basis of encouragement and cooperation, there are occasions where wiki users find themselves unable to reach accord. In the event of this happening, the Arbitration Team may be called upon to intervene, and attempt to find a reasonable compromise that, while perhaps not satisfying both parties, may at least assist in defusing the situation, thanks to the unbiased third party.

Guidelines for Arbitration Requests

In assisting in Arbitration, we generally suggest that both parties agree to the Arbitration. This is not, by any means, a requirement, but we do require that both parties be represented in proceedings.

Any Arbitration request should provide at least the following:

  • The aggrieved parties. Either person vs person, or [list of people] vs [list of people].
  • The reason for the arbitration. This should very specifically be without reference to people, as that information has already been provided. It should be a short paragraph indicating the causes of the aggrievement, and why both parties feel it requires arbitration
  • Any pages affected by the aggrievement. This should be a simple list of links.

Once the Arbitration commences, the Arbitrator will request statements from all parties involved. Any evidence to back up one's statement should be provided in link form. Each party will then have an opportunity to rebut their opponent's statement. After these two steps, the Arbitrator will then consider the case, and reach a conclusion, and determine the outcome that is required. It's the duty of the Arbitrator to move a case he accepted to a subpage of UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration, and to update the status of the arbitration case in the Arbitration Cases in Progress section.

As a note, by requesting an Arbitration, all parties are thus obliged to accept the outcome of the Arbitration. Not doing will be considered Vandalism, and such vandalism attempts will be treated as if the vandal has already received two warnings.

After the Arbitration is over, it will then be moved to an archive page. As publicly accessible pages, they may be used to establish precedent in further, applicable cases.

Current Arbitrators

For guidelines on how to arbitrate, see Arbitration Guidelines.

The following users have placed their hand up as users who are willing to be contacted to act as an Arbitrator. The role of Arbitrator is not restricted to the Administration Team; any user can be contacted as an Arbitrator (even if not listed below) and use this page for the arbitration, so long as both parties agree to the Arbitrator. Users who wish to place their hand up as an Arbitrator should place their name below on the list, using *{{usr|YourUserPage}}

Also note that not all listed Arbitrators are active on the Wiki.

I'd like DDR to be banned from posting on my talk page because of his swearing.


To explain a little more to DDR personnaly: I have made vandal banning cases because Rosslessness told me to. I have not read comments of you or anyone saying that Rosslessness was wrong. That's in no way my fault. Let me bring this very clearly to your doubtfull Jewish IQ: if you desperately want me to read something, bring it to my talk page. When you finally brought it to my talk page so I for sure knew, you started swearing yourself, so here you are. You have a case now.


Let's see who has the last world now. People like you always lose, DDR. People like me always win. --CORNHLIOO REMEMBER WHAT THE FIGHT IS FOR 14/88!!! 14:30, 7 May 2010 (BST)

Win this: I cordially reject every arbitrator you accept. -- 14:40, 7 May 2010 (BST)
Ok I won. You just proved yourself a Jew. Unmasking the Jews is my life's goal. --CORNHLIOO REMEMBER WHAT THE FIGHT IS FOR 14/88!!! 15:11, 7 May 2010 (BST)
Is Corny's arbie restraint even over to begin with? Yonnua has ruled on April 12, and his exact wording was within the next month. So as I understand it, Corny has to wait until June 1st, unless Yonnua gives his permission for this one case. -- Spiderzed 15:19, 7 May 2010 (BST)
That's one fucked up ruling, barring someone from using the one wiki page that is meant to be used to diffuse disagreements. If this page is being abused, it should be dealt with via A/VB, not via arbies rulings -- boxy talkteh rulz 15:27 7 May 2010 (BST)
He wasn't banned from it, he was asked to check through a third party before pursuing frivolous cases. The party in question was Yonnua. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:30, 7 May 2010 (BST)
Ah, so I see. Any attempt to get approval first, Corni, seeing as you agreed to it? Still, pretty much outside the scope of the arbies case. We need to encourage people to do their drama here, rather than on VB pages -- boxy talkteh rulz 15:38 7 May 2010 (BST)
Rules is rules and Corn agreed to them. -- 15:48, 7 May 2010 (BST)
Just to clear this point up, I'm fine with Corn making this case.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 16:37, 7 May 2010 (BST)

Can I haz arbitot? -- boxy talkteh rulz 15:27 7 May 2010 (BST)

If this case doesn't result in a win for Cornholioo I don't know what the fuck. People have always had control over who can and who can't post on their talk pages. Cyberbob  Talk  16:29, 7 May 2010 (BST)

Not so. They still have to show a valid reason why someone should loose the right to contact them via their talk page. Talk pages are more than just a user sub page, they a community pages, but with a few special rights for the owner of the talk page -- boxy talkteh rulz 17:06 7 May 2010 (BST)

also ddr don't be a cunt with that "durf reject everyone" shit Cyberbob  Talk  16:29, 7 May 2010 (BST)

Go back to IRL, I don't miss you. -- 16:29, 7 May 2010 (BST)
sux to be called out for shit you used to criticise doesn't it :) Cyberbob  Talk  16:37, 7 May 2010 (BST)
I honestly couldn't understand less of what you meant by that. -- 16:41, 7 May 2010 (BST)
haha no. Cyberbob  Talk  16:44, 7 May 2010 (BST)
umm, k. -- 16:45, 7 May 2010 (BST)
This is a very good example. The endless Jew DDR desperately tries to save himself from the Aryan man by rejecting everyone I accept. The Jew knows that once arbitration will be running he will be banned from posting on my talk page. In steat of going through this on the formal way the scared Jew uses mendacious methods to get his way. I always win. Forever fighting against Jewish childmurders and rapists, CORNHLIOO REMEMBER WHAT THE FIGHT IS FOR 14/88!!! 17:07, 7 May 2010 (BST)

I offer to blatantly side with DDR arbitrate. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 16:43, 7 May 2010 (BST)
