In the Harry Potter books, the castle caretaker longed for the old days
when they used to discipline students with torture. Hanged them by their
thumbs, they did.
This is virtually impossible for us ;-)

I've had little direct contact with him, but this user seems hell bent on
pushing the limits of everything (see his voting on VfD for the last few
weeks, for instance). I consider him a troll and advise the simple expedient
of ignoring him completely from here on in.

The primary, over-arching rule is:
* Protect the page to prevent vandalism or stop an edit war.
(If that's not rule #1, it should be.)
It doesn't matter if I've edited before or not. Someone who wants
"their" version will always complain, anyway.
Another good rule is:
* After protecting a page, don't make any changes that make other
contributors feel you are taking advantage of your sysop rights.
I've made many edits to protected pages (like [[Silesia]]) which
(technically) violate some rule, I suppose. But I always ask people in
the Edit Summary or the Talk Page if they mind or not. And if someone
minds, I generally offer to undo my edit (just to be fair).

I like the idea of short "time-out" bans. I suggested this a couple of
years ago. Also, it seemed to work fairly well the time Erik M.
(Eloquence) "banned" RK for just under 24 hours last year.
My experience is that time-outs work better than total bans. A ban is
like death or torture: it satisfies one party's desire for revenge, but
at a terrible cost (hint: think of how the other party feels, waking up
dead or maimed...)

Isn't that what Wikibooks's completely neglected
[[Study help desk]] was supposed to be for?

I get the legs!
We've provisionally agreed on what rules will goven arbitration - IE, what people will
be found guilty and innocent of:
----
The arbitrators will judge cases according to the following guidelines, which they will
apply with common sense and discretion, and an eye to the expectations of the
community:
1) Established Wikipedia customs and common practices
2) Wikipedia's "laws": terms of use, submission standards, byelaws, general
disclaimer, copyright license.
3) Sensible "Real world" laws
Former decisions will not be binding on the arbitrators - rather, they intend to learn
from experience.
-----
We've also decided to tweak the Jurisdiction rules based on your feedback, so that
number four is now: "The arbitrators will primarily investigate interpersonal disputes"
Next up, we discuss which solutions we shall apply. I favour putting troublesome
people in a dungeon and torturing them, but there you are.
