It is not just the work he has done on other projects, but also the manner in which he has communicated with others about his prior behaviour. He has been open and honest, and a hard worker to boot. *fingers crossed* </p><p>It should be made clear that this is his final chance, and that he will not be enjoying the benefit of the doubt, so it is on his shoulders to ensure that there is no even the slightest appearance of relapse. It looks like FT2 is going to proposed something along these lines. </p><p>In regards to the Arbcom elections, raised by <a href="/wiki/User:LessHeard_vanU" title="User:LessHeard vanU">LessHeard vanU</a> above, the discussion about this motion started prior to the elections, and I am pretty sure that it also predates <i>any</i> indication from White Cat that he was going to run. I think it is safe to say there is no possible chance that it was was a motivator in this case. It is a given that Jack Merridew would oppose White Cat if he could, and think it is sufficient "punishment" that he wont be able to that. Limiting him from participating entirely isnt something I would have even thought of, but now that you have raised it, it seems reasonable. It "cant hurt". As you say, if this motion doesnt pass, he wouldnt have been able to participate anyway, so he is no worse off if he is prohibited from participating in this years election. <span style="font-variant:small-caps"><a href="/wiki/User:Jayvdb" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Jayvdb">John Vandenberg</a> <sup><b>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jayvdb" class="mw-redirect" title="User talk:Jayvdb">chat</a>)</b></sup></span> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#c-Jayvdb-2008-11-16T03:54:00.000Z-Statement_by_John_Vandenberg" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:54, 16 November 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Jayvdb-2008-11-16T03:54:00.000Z-Statement_by_John_Vandenberg"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Jayvdb-2008-11-16T03:54:00.000Z-Statement_by_John_Vandenberg"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Statement_by_White_Cat" data-mw-thread-id="h-Statement_by_White_Cat-Statements_by_parties"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Statement_by_White_Cat-Statements_by_parties"></span>Statement by <a href="/wiki/User:White_Cat" class="mw-redirect" title="User:White Cat">White Cat</a><span data-mw-comment-end="h-Statement_by_White_Cat-Statements_by_parties"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Statement by White Cat"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>I am of course less than thrilled at the thought that Davenbelle (aka Moby Dick aka Diyarbakir aka Jack Merridew) would return editing on this site.

I am merely pointing out that <i>if</i> Jack Merridew were unbanned, I would be happy to mentor as I have seen some good work. I concede that it is a long period of problematic behaviour, and like a Nobody, found the AfD participation troublesome and unhelpful.

I don't really know just what the dynamic between Moreschi and White Cat is; sure, I have seen bits of disagreement, but nothing much, really. I see the concern about this as moot; if White Cat has a concern down the road, there are 1,600+ admins he could consult, and there's the AC itself.

There is no need for privacy in this case and maximum transparency will serve the best interest of the Community in this situation.</li></ul> <ul><li>The editing restricts were written based on the comments of the above administrators and have been previewed by ArbCom. The main purpose of the mentorship is monitoring Jack Merridew's account for any editing that will bring Merridew into contact with White Cat. No topic restrictions are spelled out in the restrictions but potential topics for problem editing have been identified and will be monitored. <a href="/wiki/User:FloNight" title="User:FloNight">FloNight</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:FloNight" title="User talk:FloNight">♥♥♥</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#c-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:58, 15 November 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion"></span> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-FloNight-2008-11-16T20:31:00.000Z-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z"></span>White Cat, I showed you the proposed motion before I posted it so that you could make suggestions. I wish that you would have let me know about your strong view about Moreschi during our chat so we could have addressed then. Adding several more mentors will be a good approach since it is something that was going to happen in an informal manner, anyway. As stated by others, this request for a ban review pre-dates White Cat's announced candidacy so I don't see that as a particular issue in this situation. Since Merridew can't make comment about White Cat, then voting would be out of the question. <a href="/wiki/User:FloNight" title="User:FloNight">FloNight</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:FloNight" title="User talk:FloNight">♥♥♥</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#c-FloNight-2008-11-16T20:31:00.000Z-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:31, 16 November 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-FloNight-2008-11-16T20:31:00.000Z-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-FloNight-2008-11-16T20:31:00.000Z-FloNight-2008-11-15T23:58:00.000Z"></span></li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li><p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-FT2-2008-11-16T03:09:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion"></span>This is a banned user appeal where the Arbitration Committee are acting as route of last appeal. "JM" has a long and serious history of harassment, leading to a ban. The question is, can he decide to avoid White Cat now, and can conditions be crafted that ensure he is non-disruptive if given the chance. Those are fair questions; if the disruption has a fair chance of ending, then fine. If it were to be trialled and it were found that he cannot or would not, then the ban would (and should) be reinstated. Because harassment can be as simple as subtle digs, appearing on the same pages, and so on, the only condition that makes sense is complete avoidance of anything that might even slightly give that appearance - and the responsibility for ensuring that, to be <i>JM's alone</i>.</p><p>Users are banned (by the community or Arbcom) usually for serious and persistent behavior issues. When a user has a long term ban (say 3-6 months or more), and behaves during it, then in most cases they may eventually be trialled back as part of the community. This is not a green light for disruption. <b>Relapse risk must be considered, as must the higher barrier for continued trust in their reformation if there were evidence of relapse.</b> Unbans in these conditions should contain some form of strong probation/mentoring if there is any risk of relapse, and a clear understanding that if the behavior resumes, then the ban may very easily be reinstated. This helps them (boundaries), their victims or users the conduct impacts on (deterrent), and the community/project (avoids issues of huge legalisms if they do begin to game or relapse). In brief, a user who is banned, is given <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AGF" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AGF">good faith</a> trust that they will behave from now on, but is also "on ice" for a long time after, may be more at risk of resumption, and must make sure that the old behaviors are history, as the "unban" hopes that they are. If they do not, then they must expect a reblock/reban may have a <b>much lower "bar"</b> (and unblocking a higher "bar") than it would for a fresh user without such history.</p><p>Having discussed this internally, I am content to give JM a try at unban. However I also feel the unban conditions are grossly inadequate and do not protect White Cat from harassment, the community from resumption, or make it direct or simple enough that a relapse will mean the ban resumes. I therefore propose a further motion 2 which is in addition to motion 1, to remedy these. <a href="/wiki/User:FT2" title="User:FT2">FT2</a> <sup><span style="font-style:italic">(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:FT2" title="User talk:FT2">Talk</a> | <a href="/wiki/Special:EmailUser/FT2" title="Special:EmailUser/FT2">email</a>)</span></sup> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#c-FT2-2008-11-16T03:09:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:09, 16 November 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-FT2-2008-11-16T03:09:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-FT2-2008-11-16T03:09:00.000Z-Arbitrator_views_and_discussion"></span></p></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Final_decision" data-mw-thread-id="h-Final_decision"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Final_decision"></span>Final decision<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Final_decision"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Final decision"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dd><i>Note: The individual votes for this motion, as well as two other motions which did not pass, are located on the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion#Proposed_motions_voting" title="Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Jack Merridew ban review motion">talk page</a>.</i></dd></dl> <div id="Indefinite_block_lifed_with_editing_restrictions"></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Indefinite_block_lifted_with_editing_restrictions" data-mw-thread-id="h-Indefinite_block_lifted_with_editing_restrictions-Final_decision"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Indefinite_block_lifted_with_editing_restrictions-Final_decision"></span>Indefinite block lifted with editing restrictions<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Indefinite_block_lifted_with_editing_restrictions-Final_decision"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Jack_Merridew_ban_review_motion&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Indefinite block lifted with editing restrictions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>1) After reviewing User:Jack Merridew's ban at his request, the Arbitration Committee agrees to unblock his account with the following conditions: </p> <ol><li>User:Jack Merridew agrees to edit from one account only "Jack Merridew" on all WMF wikis and unifies that account.</li> <li>User:Jack Merridew discloses all prior socks.</li> <li>User:Jack Merridew agrees to not edit using open proxies.</li> <li>User:Jack Merridew agrees to completely avoid White Cat on Wikipedia English pages.
