Arbitration report
The Arbitration Committee has neither opened nor closed any cases this week, leaving one case open.
Open cases
- Transcendental Meditation movement (Week 14): The case was opened to deal with circumstances surrounding articles related to the eponymous movement, similar to the circumstances at issue in Scientology pages a year ago. The case is being voted upon.
Other
- The Results of the May 2010 CheckUser and Oversight elections have been deemed unsatisfactory. Up to six Oversight positions and three Checkuser positions could not be filled, because only one candidate—Amalthea, a candidate for CheckUser—reached the 70% threshold. This was the first CheckUser/Oversight election to use the SecurePoll process. All eight Oversight candidates and four CheckUser candidates had been vetted by the committee and presented to the community for consideration.
- Amalthea has been granted CheckUser permissions, subject to identification in accordance with WMF identification policy.
- The Arbitration Committee and the Community have begun a review of how CheckUser and Oversight permissions are granted.
