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.

DanceDanceRevolution vs Boxy

I wish to have the removal of certain comments on the main page of A/VB, notably those shown in this diff link. Boxy doesn't want this [1] and has been in an edit war with me. I will accept arbitrators as they come but would prefer a sysop. --

12:37, 7 June 2010 (BST)

Can we agree to leave them there until this concludes? -- boxy talkteh rulz 12:39 7 June 2010 (BST)
Normally I'd go iscariot on your arse and force the contested edit to stay on there, but what the hey. I can wait. -- 12:48, 7 June 2010 (BST)

User:Cornholioo vs User:DanceDanceRevolution

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 childmurderers- and rapists, CORNHLIOO REMEMBER WHAT THE FIGHT IS FOR 14/88!!! 17:07, 7 May 2010 (BST)
You're unreal. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 19:01, 7 May 2010 (BST)
No, he's a shitty troll that has happened across one of the most easiest sites to troll on the Internet. Cyberbob  Talk  19:04, 7 May 2010 (BST)
You must be speaking from experience, no? Also, he's less then a shitty troll, he's a shitty troll with a very sick political/moral compass. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 19:25, 7 May 2010 (BST)
It's not that easy to troll here, in fact we have templates that indicate said user is a true. I would also point out I think this guy is legit, Thad is a better troll then him, if he wanted to be one. -- Emot-argh.gif 20:31, 7 May 2010 (BST)
Thad's inability to comprehend that Cornholioo's "sick political/moral compass" is a fake and the entirety of his troll gimmick suggests otherwise. You're about as stupid as Thad if you think it's legit. Cyberbob  Talk  03:27, 8 May 2010 (BST)
I too think that he's a troll, albeit just a really shit one. Good trolls don't end up getting banned for a month and a half just after a massive victory speech. -- 03:33, 8 May 2010 (BST)
He's a bad enough troll that he seems legit, and no one is this bad of a troll. -- Emot-argh.gif 04:43, 8 May 2010 (BST)
I don't think you know what makes a good and a bad troll. He only has to be good enough to get a reaction out of people - something he is certainly doing. He's still shit (in that he is totally unbelievable as a real Nazi and completely obviously a troll), it's just that the people of this wiki are shitter. Yes, that does include you. Cyberbob  Talk  13:05, 8 May 2010 (BST)
And that includes you. The more you call other people idiots the more you look like one yourself. I'm sorry if you thought that would made you look like such a kewl gai though. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 13:47, 8 May 2010 (BST)
im so sorry for calling out your delusions of grandeur :( Cyberbob  Talk  16:32, 8 May 2010 (BST)
No, it's because you calling me an idiot is not on. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 20:28, 9 May 2010 (BST)

I offer to blatantly side with DDR arbitrate. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 16:43, 7 May 2010 (BST)

Pick me. I'm polite and rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks. -- Cheese 14:09, 8 May 2010 (BST)

Years later a Doctor will tell cheese he has an IQ of 55, and is technically "Retarded". --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:35, 9 May 2010 (BST)

Cornholioo is still to be banned for a whole month. Usually, even with Iscariot's stalling, a month is the limit we'd do without conversation. I have no intent to go through with this. Does anyone have a problem with me archiving this in advance. --

14:27, 13 May 2010 (BST)

No, no, play this bad boy out. He's bound to say something hilariously stupid at some point in its course. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 14:32, 13 May 2010 (BST)
Give him a week after he's unbanned, then archive it. It isn't really fair to take away the case when he can't comment on it.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 17:18, 13 May 2010 (BST)

Pick me or else you admit that you like to suck dicks dry. I'd like to say for the record I think Cornholioo is a bad attention whore and DDR is a spineless faggot who would suck a dude's dick just to get him to like him. That being said, I dislike both of you. Disliking someone is the ultimate form of unbiased opinion. If you like someone then you are biased, but if you dislike him you can see his flaws. With both of you being disliked I can safely say I will not pick either of you as the winner for anything other than being correct. So pick me for Arbitatortot or else you agree to allow me to post on my wall that you like to suck dicks dry of semen. Ignoring this post counts as not picking me, thus agreeing to my posting said comment involving you and dicks. Love, --Sonny Corleone DORIS I jizzed in my pants pr0n 04:44, 15 May 2010 (BST)
