January
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Tothwolf#Final decision Decided 25 January 2010 ([1] AN notice)
- User:Tothwolf is subject to an editing restriction for six months. Should Tothwolf make any edits which are judged by an administrator to be uncivil, personal attacks, or assumptions of bad faith, Tothwolf may be blocked for the duration specified in the enforcement ruling below.
- User:JBsupreme is warned to refrain from incivility and personal attacks.
- User:Miami33139 and and User:JBsupreme are reminded to observe deletion best practices when nominating articles for deletion, including the consideration of alternatives to deletion such as merging articles or curing problems through editing.
- The parties in particular, and other editors generally, are reminded to observe at all times Wikipedia's policies and guidelines on dealing with harassed editors and on handling conflicts of interest.
- Should any user subject to an editing restriction in this case violate that restriction, that user may be briefly blocked, up to a week in the event of repeated violations. After five blocks, the maximum block shall increase to one month. All blocks are to be logged at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Tothwolf#Log of blocks and bans.
February
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/MZMcBride 2#Final Decision Decided 11 February 2010 (AN Notice)
- As User:MZMcBride resigned his adminship while a request for arbitration was pending against him, he may regain adminship only through a new request for adminship or by application to this Committee. To the extent MZMcBride requests that he be allowed to regain adminship by simple request to a bureaucrat, his request is denied, in large measure because his conduct would likely have led to a significant sanction against him had he not resigned;
- MZMcBride is admonished for failing to learn from the lessons of the past and for creating avoidable drama;
- MZMcBride is admonished for facilitating vandalism by a banned user.
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Chabad movement#Final Decision Decided 13 February 2010 (AN Notice)
- No specific enforcements in final decision.
March
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/ChildofMidnight#Final decision Decided 9 March 2010 (AN notice)
- User:ChildofMidnight is banned from Wikipedia for one year.
- User:ChildofMidnight is restricted to editing main (article) space, the talk pages of articles he has edited, Template talk:Did you know, and his own talk and user talk pages only. In all cases he is forbidden from discussing the behavior of other editors, real or perceived, outside of his own user talk page. ChildofMidnight may apply to the Committee for exemptions to this restriction for the purposes of good faith dispute resolution on a case-by-case basis. This remedy is concurrent (and cumulative) with any extant topic bans, and consecutive to any editing ban.
April
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Asgardian#Final decision Decided 10 April 2010 (AN notice)
- User:Asgardian is banned from Wikipedia for one year.
May
- Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Alastair Haines 2 Decided 8 May 2010 (AN notice)
- User:Alastair Haines is banned from editing Wikipedia for a period of one year, and thereafter pending further direction of the Arbitration Committee under remedy 2.
- Should Alastair Haines wish to return to editing Wikipedia after one year, he shall first communicate with the Arbitration Committee and provide a satisfactory assurance that he will refrain from making any further legal threats against other editors or against the Wikimedia Foundation. Should Alastair Haines, after being permitted to return, again make a legal threat or a statement that may reasonably be construed as a legal threat, he may be blocked for an appropriate period of time by any uninvolved administrator.
- To assist Alastair Haines in disengaging from Wikipedia, the case pages relating to this arbitration and all related pages have been courtesy blanked. As appropriate, other pages reflecting controversies to which Alastair Haines was a party may also be courtesy-blanked, particularly where the discussion is no longer relevant to ongoing editing issues. In addition, if Alastair Haines so requests, his username (and hence the username associated with his edits in page histories) may be changed to another appropriate username other than his real name. Editors who have been in conflict with Alastair Haines are strongly urged to make no further reference to him on-wiki following his departure.
