This is the central log for all sanctions issued pursuant to an Arbitration Committee contentious topics remedy in 2013 as well as any appeals or modifications made to sanctions issued in 2013.

The required information is the user or page the sanction is being applied to, enforcing administrator, date, nature of sanction, including expiry date (if applicable), basis or context (such as link to AE request), and a diff of the user notification (if applicable).

“	All sanctions and page restrictions must be logged by the administrator who applied the sanction or page restriction at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log. Whenever a sanction or page restriction is appealed or modified, the administrator amending it must append a note recording the amendment to the original log entry. To be valid, sanctions must be clearly and unambiguously labelled as an arbitration enforcement action (such as with "arbitration enforcement", "arb enforcement", "AE" or "WP:AE" in the Wikipedia log entry or the edit summary). If a sanction has been logged as an arbitration enforcement action but has not been clearly labelled as an arbitration enforcement action any uninvolved administrator may amend the sanction (for example, a null edit or reblocking with the same settings) on behalf of the original administrator. Labelling a sanction which has been logged does not make the administrator who added the label the "enforcing administrator" unless there is confusion as to who intended the sanction be arbitration enforcement. A central log of all page restrictions and sanctions (including blocks, bans, page protections or other restrictions) placed as arbitration enforcement (including contentious topic restrictions) is to be maintained by the Committee and its clerks at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement log.	”

Article titles and capitalisation

• Wikipedia:Article titles (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  • During Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Apteva, involving disputes over dash/hyphen style, notably mentioning Comet Hale–Bopp, Dicklyon (talk · contribs) added CHB as a 21st example of using common names for article titles. Apteva reverted. Ohconfucius reverted. Dohn Joe changed the example to Halley's Comet, in an apparent attempt to avoid the controversy. Noetica reverted. Wikid77 removed it again. JHunterJ reverted. To end the multi-party edit war, I changed it back to Halley's Comet, and on the talkpage, I explained that the next person to revert it would be blocked under the discretionary sanctions authorized for these articles. Should a consensus discussion determine that there don't need to be 21 examples, or that there is a reason to favor CHB over Halley for some non-pointy reason, that of course will not call for a block.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 01:15, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
