The Arbitration Committee closed four cases this week.

A case against Jason Gastrich was closed on Tuesday. As a result, Jason Gastrich was banned for one year, indefinitely banned from Louisiana Baptist University and The Skeptic's Annotated Bible, and limited to one account (additional remedies were passed, but were superseded by the ban). Gastrich had used sockpuppetry, invited meatpuppetry, and engaged in personal attacks, self-promotion, and general disruption.

A case against Karmafist was closed on Tuesday. As a result, Karmafist was placed on civility parole, and restricted on the use of welcome messages. Karmafist welcomed many new users, linking to "wikipolitical" pages, which the Arbitration Committee ruled could be misleading to new users. Additionally, Karmafist was found to have assumed bad faith, ignored consensus, and acted uncivilly.

A case against Licorne was closed on Friday. As a result, Licorne was banned for one year, and placed on indefinite probation and personal attack parole. Licorne had made personal attacks, engaged in POV editing, and refused to participate in his arbitration case.

A case against editors on Shiloh Shepherd Dog was closed on Saturday. As a result, Tina M. Barber was banned for one year. Additional remedies included an article probation, a ban on meatpuppeting, and a warning for all editors on the article to remain civil. Tina M. Barber revealed personal information about another editor on the article, and Barber and other involved users had engaged in personal attacks and attempted to claim "ownership" of the article.
