  Clerk note: Given the stated lack of fluency from one the the participants, an admin on the Hungarian WP (User:Nyenyec) has graciously offered to provide guidance and help. If a there appears to be a linguistic issue during the case, bringing it to his attention may be worthwhile. — Coren (talk) for the Arbitration Committee 14:11, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Statement by User:LtPowers

edit

I wonder if I should be added to the parties in this case. I was involved in reverting TransylvanianKarl's reversions, which I persisted in for a while due to the clear and obvious superiority of Xiaphias's version. However, I fell off in monitoring it because it's hard to keep up with someone dedicated to continuous reverting. Powers T 23:57, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

You need not be named a party to the case to provide evidence; everyone is welcome to provide information that can guide the arbitrators on Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/International Churches of Christ/Evidence. — Coren (talk) 00:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
I understand that; it's not so much that I have evidence to present, it's just that my conduct may be part of what is reviewed. Powers T 00:06, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
It's possible that the arbitrators move to include you in the case if they feel it relevant, although they tend to avoid that when it's not necessary to provide a ruling. I can add you to the case if you beleive that it is required in order for them to get a complete picture; but given that your involvement is peripheral, it's probably not required. Again, you are quite welcome to make a statement, either by giving evidence or even just by commenting in the workshop to give your perspective, regardless of whether you are a named party or not. — Coren (talk) 02:07, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thank you; I just wanted to be clear. =) Powers T 12:24, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Based on my initial review of the evidence to date, I don't see any need to add LtPowers (or anyone else) as an additional party. If that changes as we get closer to a proposed decision, anyone against whom the committee is considering entering sanctions will be notified. Otherwise, Coren is right that "party" status is not a big deal. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 13:14, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
