We are talking about some kind of summary procedure in this case. Any
suggestions? Also, although FuelWagon has harassed me some. I haven't
really followed what else he has been doing. Could there be some
short summaries at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/FuelWagon v. Ed
Poor (Make a statement).

believing you rather than trawling through these evidence pages),
then
the damage that has been done will only continue throughout the
process of arbitration. If arbitrators were to take and act on cases
that they can see are being destructive, then they could make and
delegate rulings with the collective force of a group (as opposed to
the actions of one or two admins) in the way they feel appropriate,
without having to have a long, drawn-out process that can be turned
into a "circus". This is a dangerous suggestion, I know, but I felt I
should make it.
Cormac, I agree with the idea of the arbitration committee being
allowed to be more pro-active, though it becomes a question of extra
workload, and I doubt they would want any. This is why I was thinking
of an extra group of editors set up specifically to deal with trolling
and harassment as an extension of the arbcom, reporting to them and
operating under their jurisdiction: a subcommittee. But the point you
make is dead right: FuelWagon will turn the arbcom case into another
platform for his harassment, which he did with the two RfCs. On the
upside, it'll be concentrated on one spot instead of being spread
throughout the project, but it would be good if there were a way of
dealing with it that didn't involve all the nonsense being reproduced
yet again.
