The Arbitration Committee did not close any cases this week.

DotSix

DotSix, the name for an IP address engaged in vandalism, sockpuppeting, and editing of other users' comments in his RFAr, has been banned from all pages except his talk page and his RFAr pages. The case is currently in the evidence phase.

Other cases

Cases against Gabrielsimon and -Ril- are in the working phase. Cases against Stevertigo and Rainbowwarrior1977 are in the evidence phase.

Requests against Ultramarine and Ed Poor have both garnered four votes, the bare minimum for a RFA to be accepted.
