all proposed

Arbitrators should vote for or against each point or vote to 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.
  • Items that receive a majority abstentions will need to go through an amendment process and be re-voted on once.

Conditional votes for, against, or to abstain should be explained by the Arbitrator in parenthesis after his time-stamped signature. For example, an Arbitrator can state that he would only favor a particular remedy based on whether or not another remedy/remedies were enacted.

Discussion by Arbitrators

General

I believe this problem was caused partially by not understanding that Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advocacy; understandable, as it sometimes seems that rule is honored more in the breach than in its observation. Please feel welcome to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia and enjoy editing in other areas. Fred Bauder 22:53, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
