Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment/Header

To make a request, please follow these steps:

Edit the request template, and copy the text.
Click the "[Edit]" link to the right of this section, and paste the template immediately below ==Current requests== and above any other outstanding requests.
Using the format provided by the template, state your request and reasoning in 500 words or fewer, citing supporting diffs where necessary. You may add to this in future if needed, but it should be kept short. List any other users affected or involved. Sign your statement with ~~~~.
If your request will affect or involve other users, you must notify each involved person on their user talk page. Return to your request and provide diffs showing that other involved users have been notified in the section provided for notification.

This is not a page for discussion.

It may be to your advantage to paste the template into your user space or use an off-line text editor to compose your request before posting it here. The main Requests for arbitration page is not the place to work on rough drafts.
Arbitrators or Clerks may summarily remove or refactor discussion without comment.
Requests from banned users should be made by e-mail directly to the Committee.
Only Arbitrators and Clerks may remove requests from this page. Do not remove a request unless you are one.
