It should be clarified whether this would include adding (or moving around so as to make more prominent) astrological content in topics not generally perceived as astrological or astronomical, like algorithm. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 16:19, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

For what its worth, I would suggest a shorter or nonexistent ban from articles and a rather strict reversion probation. Many believe Theodore7 has a lot of domain knowledge to offer the community. The ban may run him off for good. Even if he were to return from a prolonged ban, some kind of reversion probation would probably be necessary at that point. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 16:19, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Required edit summaries

There seems to be a mistake in this section, a sentence copied verbatim from the previous section. I'm unsure of what kind of violation with regard to edit summaries that admins are supposed to block for. Bishonen | talk 18:57, 8 February 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Temporary injunction against editing outside arbitration and user pages

Does this temporary injunction need 8 support votes to be passed, just like the permanent remedies? Or are there different majority rules for temporary measures? It seems to me that there ought to be, since the temporary ban is supposed to run during the arbitration. Its usefulness will obviously be over once the permanent remedies are in place. Is it really likely to gather 8 votes much faster than the permanent remedies (even though admittedly it now has four as against two)? Bishonen | talk 18:57, 8 February 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Aha, I just noticed it does indeed say "Four net "support" votes needed to pass " at the top of the temporary injunctions section. So does that mean the injunction is now in force? Mind you, Theodore7 won't know about it until it's posted on his page (if indeed then, as he seems prone to miss stuff on it). Bishonen | talk 22:49, 8 February 2006 (UTC).[reply]
