What is the process for getting this out? I think it is fairly complete, there don't seem to have been many active policy discussions this month, people seem to have been distracted by the election. Is there anything that has been missed from the newsletter. Thanks and warm regards. [[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:48, 1 March 2008 (UTC) |

Hey Kirill, there needs to be someone who can expand the segment of the [[Matt Sanchez]] article under "blogger". I'm not a blogger, I was in Iraq as a war correspondent, but the article has become a war ground for gay activist. |
|||
Any chance of getting you involved on the specific part of military segment of the article, namely the Beauchamp recanting, the scarcity of journalist in Iraq, the invasion of Musa Qala, Afghanistan. The first, and biggest air assault in Afghanistan since 2003. |

If you can look into it, drop me a line. matthew.a.sanchez@gmail.com <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/206.13.51.235|206.13.51.235]] ([[User talk:206.13.51.235|talk]]) 17:20, 1 March 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Re:Elections
Thanks Kirill. Its going to seem real wierd to not have you at the helm of this particular battleship though, but all good things must come to an end I suppose. Take care, and good luck :) TomStar81 (Talk) 00:49, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for all your work Kirill. Also, I had to bother you again, but were there templates that you used to subst for the P/A Review notices or the welcome notices to new members? Thanks again. Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 03:52, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Heh. I should have looked. I've been cutting and pasting for the paste month on the sporadic occasions that I did the annoucnements. Blnguyen (vote in the photo straw poll) 03:55, 29 February 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by YellowAssessmentMonkey (talk • contribs)

Requests for arbitration/Episodes and characters 2
Regarding this case, I know a lot of discussion is floating around, but I really feel strongly about this and wanted to get more attention to this comment I made:
If any of the arbs are reading these messages, I beg of you to accept a proposal that limits TTN's actions only when challenged. Like the others, I'm still not convinced TTN has even done something grossly wrong, but it's far better than the current proposal, allows TTN to preform non-controversial actions, and addresses the core issue of force rather than content judgements.
TTN might have had a liberal interpretation of ArbCom's instructions from the last case, but something like this would be a lot more clear cut, and I have no doubt he would follow it. Perhaps this could be given a trial time of a week or two, and if not effective then simply default to the 1.1 proposal that you are supporting now. I really believe this issue comes down to when situations where forced when challenged, and not the initial editorial actions. He would learn a lot from that kind of six month (or whatever) probation, and still be able to be constructive on Wikipedia. I also believe it's something that both "sides" would be able to live with. -- Ned Scott 04:25, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Temporary injunction and "any currently existing article"
I realize you are quite busy with other cases, but I have a question regarding the temporary injunction related to the Episodes and characters 2 arbitration case. Does the wording "any currently existing article" mean any article created before the injunction was enacted (February 3, 2008) or does it also apply to articles created after February 3, 2008? This arbitration enforcement noticeboard thread was archived because some editors think the injunction does not apply to articles created after February 3. --Pixelface (talk) 05:13, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Can you please take a look at this? At the very least confirm that you had seen it. :/ -- Cat chi? 12:38, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I have seen it (though I would much prefer that you guys keep your arguments on the case pages). Kirill 13:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
- Arbcom /evidence page for episodes is a bit too long and editing it has been rather difficult. I am somewhat panicking because the voting on the arbitration case has started and I feel the late evidence I provided may be overlooked. The sections on the evidence I collected that I would like arbcom to take a closer look are:
- So far arbcom has addressed the sections (to a degree)
- I can understand why arbcom would perhaps disregard these sections in "/Proposed Decision"
- Aside from these I feel the combative mentality (comradeship) exhibited by some of the users has not been addressed. This is more evident in sub pages of the arbitration case itself such as the talk page of the proposed decision. Any time something is said about one of them they all defend each other 'to the bitter end'.
- I am very concerned because after the first arbitration case the disruption continued. I do not want to deal with 2 more months of disruption just like the past case. As it stands I feel the passed remedies will not be adequate in resolving the dispute. Despite the temporary injunction by arbcom, people have continued to mass remove material. Alas on 'video game' related articles and not 'television'.

Military cout
Hey, can I ask you something... I am trying to translate a Lithuanian pamphlet that was distributed after a military coup and I got stuck at one English term. It says "karo lauko teismas" which translates directly as "war field court" and means a court which is held during a battle - on the spot and without much paperwork. Do you know English equivalent? Renata (talk) 18:27, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. Again.
Sorry to pester, Kirill. I, like everyone else, wanted to thank you for your help with the project and particularly your patience with my neverending questions and concerns. I wish I could have made it out to the DC meetups--something always came up. See you around the Project. :) --ScreaminEagle (talk) 19:08, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

What is the process for getting this out? I think it is fairly complete, there don't seem to have been many active policy discussions this month, people seem to have been distracted by the election. Is there anything that has been missed from the newsletter. Thanks and warm regards. Woody (talk) 12:48, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
