Create your own section to provide evidence in, and do not edit anyone else's section. Please keep your evidence concise, and within the default limits. If you wish to exceed the default lengths, you must request the agreement of the arbitrators to do so on the /Evidence talk page before posting. Unapproved overlength evidence, or inappropriate material and/or diffs, may be refactored, redacted or removed entirely.

Statement from drafters about Scope and Timetable: The purpose of this case is to examine GoodDay's conduct. Evidence and workshop submissions will relate only to whether or not GoodDay's behaviour has been a subject of disruption. No examination will be made of the wider topic areas to which GoodDay makes contributions, except where necessary to establish if GoodDay's behaviour has been disruptive. The proposed decision of this case will take into account GoodDay's treatment of his mentors' advice, and evidence to show when he did or did not take heed of a mentor's guidance will be useful. In order to maintain the narrow scope of this case, evidence that does not relate to GoodDay's conduct, or that attempts to bring the wider content issues at play into these proceedings, will not be accepted. The case will run on an expedited timetable, with the evidence phase running for one week, the workshop phase for one week, and the proposed decision for one week; the dates at the top of each case subpage have been updated to reflect the correct schedule. Kirill Lokshin and I, the drafting arbitrators for this case, will be pleased to respond to any questions you have about these proceedings. Thank you, AGK [•] 09:48, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Any editor may add evidence to this page, irrespective of whether they are involved in the dispute. Create your own section and do not edit another editor's section. By default, the evidence submission length is limited to about 1000 words and about 100 diffs for named parties; and about 500 words and about 50 diffs for non-party editors. While in general it is is more effective to make succinct yet detailed submissions, users who wish to submit over-length evidence may do so by posting a request on the /Evidence talk page. Unapproved overlong evidence may be trimmed to size or removed by the Clerk without warning.

Focus on the issues that are important to the dispute and on diffs which illustrate the nature of the dispute.

You must use the prescribed format in your evidence. Evidence should include a link to the actual page diff in question, or to a short page section; links to the page itself are insufficient. Never link to a page history, an editor's contributions, or a log for all actions of an editor (as those change over time), although a link to a log for a specific article or a specific block log can be useful. Please make sure any page section links are permanent; see simple diff and link guide.

General discussion of the case will not be accepted on this page, and belongs on the talk page. The Arbitration Committee expects that all rebuttals of other evidence submissions will be included in your own section and will explain how the evidence is incorrect. Please do not refactor the page or remove evidence presented by others. If something is put in the wrong place, only an Arbitrator or Clerk may move it.

Arbitrators may analyze evidence and other assertions at /Workshop, which is open for comment by parties, Arbitrators, and others. After arriving at proposed principles, findings of fact, or remedies, Arbitrators vote at /Proposed decision. Only Arbitrators (and Clerks, when clarification on votes is needed) may edit the proposed decision page.
