I have proposed an wiki for managing disputes (cross-wiki and local). It¹s at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Dispute. This wiki would have many venues, mediation, arbitration and other ways. There would also have an private wikis for arbitrator, and mediator discussions. This wiki would overlap other wikis, but would be good to have all in a central place and wikis that have no dispute resolution place. Ebe123

You haven't explained, either here or on meta, why we would want this. What advantage is there to having dispute resolution happen on its own wiki rather than happening within the project where the dispute is happening?
I can understand needing somewhere to discuss cross-wiki problems, but meta can be that place (as it is now).
It would be mainly for wikis without dispute resolution. EBE123

Is that a problem that actually exists? I would expect wikis to create dispute resolution processes when they reach the size where they need it. Before then, they can probably resolve disputes through informal methods. If they need some technical help because they don't have any admins, the stewards are always there to help.

I oppose this proposal on the basis that we have enough damn wikis already.
Outreach, strategy, chapter wikis, private wikis: making more wikis doesn't solve problems, it just means we have more damn watchlists to keep track of.
Hoi,
I think disputes for wikis without dispute resolving devices are better solved on Meta (on RfC), especially with the hopefully soon coming global requests committee (any updates on this lately?) that will help solving such disputes. So, I don't think such a wiki would help anyone.
