The only logical thing to do is to rename the Arbitration Committee into something more close to what their actual role is, and rename the Mediation Committee into the Arbitration Committee, and give it live ammunition. What do I mean with live ammunition? I honestly don't know! Anything the current "so-called" Arbitration Committee canbear to part with...
Ok, Maybe you want them to be able to impose short bans, protect pages... What?
3 days ago, I imposed a virtual protection on the top of DNA page. It was meant to protect the page from a new edit war, while letting most of it editable. And to insure people would talk about it rather than edit the article again. I soft ban one user who did not respect that virtual protection
I felt GREAT !
Because I felt something was possibly do-able in that direction. And that *I* could do something about it. Not just wait for nothing to happen.
I felt great till 5 hours later desysoped 168 quit the project.
I think this is an option to explore to fix a dispute, while limiting impact on other editors. In the end, it is a bit like a mediation (ie, trying to have people talk and discuss, online and offline) while limiting damage (by protection and banning possibilities).
(now...I am not sure...what to do next since 168 is gone...I suppose I will restore the community version and possibly, depending on the DNA editors position on the matter, I was thinking of letting a soft protection on the community version for a while longuer in case Lir or Bensaccount would feel like changing it soon...)
