The Olive Branch: A Dispute Resolution Newsletter (Issue #2)

This edition The Olive Branch is focusing on a 2nd dispute resolution RfC. Two significant proposals have been made. Below we describe the background and recent progress and detail those proposals. Please review them and follow the link at the bottom to comment at the RfC. We need your input!
View the full newsletter
Background
Until late 2003, Jimmy Wales was the arbiter in all major disputes. After the Mediation Committee and the Arbitration Committee were founded, Wales delegated his roles of dispute resolution to these bodies. In addition to these committees, the community has developed a number of informal processes of dispute resolution. At its peak, over 17 dispute resolution venues existed. Disputes were submitted in each venue in a different way.
Due to the complexity of Wikipedia dispute resolution, members of the community were surveyed in April 2012 about their experiences with dispute resolution. In general, the community believes that dispute resolution is too hard to use and is divided among too many venues. Many respondents also reported their experience with dispute resolution had suffered due to a shortage of volunteers and backlogging, which may be due to the disparate nature of the process.
An evaluation of dispute resolution forums was made in May this year, in which data on response and resolution time, as well as success rates, was collated. This data is here.
Progress so far
Stage one of the dispute resolution noticeboard request form. Here, participants fill out a request through a form, instead of through wikitext, making it easier for them to use, but also imposing word restrictions so volunteers can review the dispute in a timely manner.
Leading off from the survey in April and the evaluation in May, several changes to dispute resolution noticeboard (DRN) were proposed. Rather than using a wikitext template to bring disputes to DRN, editors used a new javascript form. This form was simpler to use, but also standardised the format of submissions and applied a word limit so that DRN volunteers could more easily review disputes. A template to summarise, and a robot to maintain the noticeboard, were also created.
As a result of these changes, volunteers responded to disputes in a third of the time, and resolved them 60% faster when compared to May. Successful resolution of disputes increased by 17%. Submissions were 25% shorter by word count.(see Dispute Resolution Noticeboard Statistics - August compared to May)
Outside of DRN other simplification has taken place. The Mediation Cabal was closed in August, and Wikiquette assistance was closed in September. Nevertheless, around fifteen different forums still exist for the resolution of Wikipedia disputes.
Proposed changes
Given the success of the past efforts at DR reform, the current RFC proposes we implement:
1) A submission gadget for every DR venue tailored to the unique needs of that forum.
Similar to the one that was deployed, with great success, to the DRN.
Structured based on the specific issues most commonly dealt with at each forum.
Designed to improve the quality of requests for DR and the efficiency of DR at that forum.
Forms will merely fill out any existing templates (such as Arbcom's) and create a markup-free form in line with specific noticeboard practices otherwise.
Example form fields: What pages are involved? What users are involved? What is the issue? What resolution is desired?
This wizard would ask a series of structured questions about the nature of the dispute.
It would then determine to which dispute resolution venue a dispute should be sent.
If the user agrees with the wizard's selection, s/he would then be asked a series of questions about the details of the dispute (for example, the usernames of the involved editors).
The wizard would then submit a request for dispute resolution to the selected venue, in that venue's required format (using the logic of each venue's specialized form, as in proposal #1). The wizard would not suggest a venue which the user has already identified in answer to a question like "What other steps of dispute resolution have you tried?".
Similar to the way the DRN request form operates, this would be enabled for all users. A user could still file a request for dispute resolution manually if they so desired.
Coding such a wizard would be complex, but the DRN gadget would be used as an outline.
Once the universal request form is ready (coded by those who helped create the DRN request form) the community will be asked to try out and give feedback on the wizard. The wizard's logic in deciding the scope and requirements of each venue would be open to change by the community at any time.
3) Additionally, we're seeking any ideas on how we can attract and retain more dispute resolution volunteers.

Wonder if you could comment on the rationale for the category Category:Birds of ICUN Red List least concern: Revision history - You probably meant IUCN rather ICUN but the utility of the category is questionable since it involves maintaining the taxobox entry and the category in synchrony. You might like to discuss with the taxobox authors on including a category automatically via the template code. I will empty the few species you have added to this wrongly spelt category. Additionally you could use Category:IUCN_Red_List_least_concern_species instead. Shyamal (talk) 07:50, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello Sir; I'm looking for an open mind. Here what the problem is: My name is Frederic Bourdin and there is a Wikipedia article about me: Frederic Bourdin. For years I've been editing it using reliable sources, such as serious Newspaper and Magazine and myself knowing that of course my word would not be enough. There are four different version of my Wikipedia article: English, French, German and Russian, and I've been mainly working with the French and English version and there has never been any problems until a few months ago, let me explain: It is well known in France and in differents press article that the Father of my mother (my grandfather) was racist and because of the fact that my Father was Algerian, my grandfather wanted his daughter, my mother to have an abortion of me. This FACT is on numerous press reports, part of the film that was made about me The imposter and else. It's also on the French version of Wikipedia. So I edited the English version "of me" in the truth interest but: an editor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bbb23 stopped me to put this information in the article because, he say that I should not be quoted no matter how reliable and sourced those quotes are. I was angry because of that and I threatened him with legal action, I did not know that it was forbidden in Wikipedia's rules so I was blocked. I decided to create a new account and I was blocked again and then I decided to wait for the blockage to end and when it did I edited the article again using as an argument that I could quote myself as long that it was supported by reliable sources and... I was blocked again for "evading the block" and I did not since it did run's out... But never mind, I think that all this is very unfair. I only want the true to be printed and my ignorance about Wikipedia's rules deserved me but I think that the editing should be put again and stand (since it's true and confirmed by reliable sources) and if you can help me, maybe you can find it on you to help me being unblocked, I've never had any problems on Wikipedia before and those problems would never have happen if it was not by: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bbb23 deep dislike of me. Please look at the facts and help me. PS: You can also see that I've done everything that I could before asking your help: I appealed, I emailed and I don't know what else I could do that I haven't done. Thank you Sir — Preceding unsigned comment added by Idontfeelthesame (talk • contribs) 20:35, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
Hello. As you know, reliable sources are important. If you can find reports and other reliable sources about those allegations, you can use {{Request edit}} on the talk page of the article to produce the following:{{Template:Request edit/{{#switch:{{ucfirst:}}
|Declined = {{#ifeq: | A | proceed | declined }}
|D = {{#ifeq: | A | proceed | declined }}
|Answered
|A = answered1
|Significant Edit
|R = significant
|Partially Complete
|P = partial
|Go Ahead
|G = proceed
|Request = request
|status{{=}}requested = request
|status{{=}}answered = answered
|Amin = answered
|#default = request
}}
|1={{#switch:
|ADV = Some or all of the changes may be promotional in tone.
|V = Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works.
|O = The suggested edits are good, but the reviewer felt omissions in the content may create balance issues.
|R = The changes suggested removing content that is well-cited or where sources exist. Consider re-writing, instead of deleting, bias content that needs to be written neutrally.
|D = The reviewer would like to request the editor with a COI attempt to discuss with editors engaged in the subject-area first.
|A = The reviewer requests that the COI editor implement the proposed edits directly.
|S = The request was not specific enough. You may consider leaving your comments on the Talk page or escalating significant issues to the conflict of interest noticeboard.
|T = A reviewer felt that this edit would not improve the article.
|C = A consensus could not be reached.
|#default =
}}
|2=
|A = The reviewer requests that the COI editor implement the proposed edits directly.
}}.
Also, you can send communication to the Wikimedia staff asking that your identity be verified.Thegreatgrabber(talk)contribs 01:50, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering. The problem is that I am blocked and even for communicating with you I am forced to evade the block. Even though my intentions were fair, the person who blocked me is making sure that all my attempts to edit the article will fail. Any request are erased under the motive that it is made by me and that I am blocked. I really don't know what to do. I'm exhausting all Wikipedia's appeals here and what's happening to me, if you read the first note that I sent you is quiet unfair. Thank you for any help you will give me.--Idontfeelthesame (talk) 08:53, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

I've been making some progress on Snuggle development recently and I could use your feedback. Specifically, I've created a work log that I plan to update every time I get a chance to work on Snuggle. My intention is that you'll be able to watch that page to track my progress so I can get your feedback on features when they are early in development. The most recent entry (also the only entry) discusses new functionality for interacting with newcomers via Snuggle. I posted some mockups in the work log that show how I imagine the new features to work and I could use some feedback before I start writing the code. Thanks! --EpochFail(talk • work) 20:29, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
