| − | First some notes:
| + | |
| − | *I will not be acting in my capacity of a Sysop in the matter regarding Religion in [[Tanah Burung]] as I have become an involved party.
| + | |
| − | *Tanah Burung did not request arbitration. Starting arbitration procedure was a policy decision which was made, again, without my involvement as a sysop.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | Issues:
| + | == Cases in arbitration == |
| − | #Syskeyia has a tendency to vandalize articles of other players with references to RL and silly comments. Evidence about this is presented [http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/NSwiki:Arbitration/Syskeyia#Evidence_by_the_plaintiffs here]. Since Syskeyia has apparently not responded to previous warnings, I urge that something be done to remedy the situation.
| + | |
| − | #The second issue has been withdrawn after consultation with other sysops, as it seems to be moving through other channels.

| | | | |
| − | ==== Statement by affected party ==== | + | == Decided cases == |
| − | * I apologize for saaying "F----ian" was one of SeOCC's major languages. The "joke," which was aimed at SeOCC's player's fondness for the particular swear word, was childish, immature. stupid, wrong, and possibly immoral. I repent, and apologize. | + | * [[NSwiki:Arbitration/Syskeyia|User:Knootoss v. User:Syskeyia]] - '''Accepted''' for Arbitration on 23 October 2004 with two votes and one recusal. '''Decided''' on 26 October 2004 to place User:Syskeyia on indefinite probation. |
| − | * As for my alleged "vandalism," this has to do with the relation of NS and RL history. In my opinion, RL history is like a book, and NS players are like authors - they are free to add chapters, scenes, charatcers, and so on provided they fit into the RL history "plot" in a plausible manner; seriously altering what has already been written,especially the denial of RL events, however, is a different matter. Knootoss, Der Angst, and others have done the latter in their "past histories." I tend not to dwell on this issue that much, believing that IC this is, at most, a squabble among Syskeyian and other scholars regarding history books and the like - Syskeyian scholars believe Spain owned Holland, etc, and the "Knootian Declaration' et al as fabrications, while Knootian scholars believe vice versa, and they argue amongst themselves while everyone else goes about their daily lives. Knootoss et al, however, assert their alteration of history as'' '''the''' '' NS truth. I simply wish to point out that not everybody in the NS world accepts their historical alterations as fact, and leave the decision on which is the NS truth (if they believe such truth exists at all) up to them.
| + | |
| − | * As for the Tanah Burung situation, I have several things to say. First, as a RL Roman Catholic I refuse to RP a NS Catholic Church which differs fundamentally with the RL one. I do, however, respect the decisions of those who do otherwise. While I have great respect for [[Holy Vatican See]]'s RPing skills, I have chosen to [[ignore]] him because he does not RP John Paul II, the current RL pontiff. Also, the Catholic Church has traditionally condemned homosexuality, and I believe that Knootoss' suggestion that the reference be changed to 'some elements of the Church' would portray those who condemn homosexuality - a condemnation that the Catholic Church has maintained for millennia - as in the same league as aged "hillbillies" who believe cars are a work of the devil and the American Civil War never ended, and such. Furthermore, I understand HVS' actions regarding the Tanah Burung Church's activities to be a toleration of vice, rather than a condoning of virtue; this toleration, in my speculation, is derived somewhat from Tanah Burung's status as a third world country and HVSs' pontiff's failed ambition to be a missionary. Nevertheless, I do not think it to be a violation of the neutral point of view to say that the Catholic Church has traditionally condemned homosexuality.

| + | [[Category:NS MetaWiki|{{PAGENAME}}]] |
| − | * As this is the first-ever arbitration case being heard by the NSwiki administrative team, let me make a few comments about the arbitration process before beginning. First, arbitration is the last step in [[NSwiki:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]], meaning that it shouldn't even be taken up unless all other options have been exhausted. The administrative team reserves the right to refer arbitration cases to an earlier form of dispute resolution before taking action.
| + | [[Category:Dispute resolution|{{PAGENAME}}]] |
| − | **'''[[NSwiki:Requests for comment]]''' - The RfC page isn't used much, so I'm not going to really consider it in this case. However, I have added a reference to the cases in question to that page.
| + | |
| − | **'''[[NSwiki:Current surveys]]''' - Before arbitration is activated, I think it might be wise to gauge community opinion with some kind of opinion survey in these matters. Therefore, at this point I'm inclined to defer arbitration until some kind of survey on the [[:Category:Religions]] page is held.
| + | |
| − | :'''I referred Knootoss to this page''' after he requested that I take administrative action against Syskeyia in the IRC chat - the proper way to request administrative action when it's not blatant vandalism is through arbitration. Note that (based on U.S. Supreme Court and Wikipedia Arbitration Committee precedent) it takes (majority of admins)-1 admins, which is currently 2 administrators, to agree to take an arbitration case. In the interest of establishing a coherent arbitration precedent, I will vote to '''take''' this case, especially given that altering the histories of other nations seems to be a case under our jurisdiction. --[[User:Goobergunch|Goobergunch]]|[[User talk:Goobergunch|?]] 18:17, 23 Oct 2004 (GMT)
