How to read the sections

Decided: The calendar date (in UTC) when the case was decided. If the case did not reach a decision, it will be Closed instead. If the case involved an administrator "retiring", it will be "Deopped" instead.
Abbrev.: A shorthand abbreviation of the casename. See ArbCaseAbv for more details.
Type: The type of case it is:

Admin: A case centred around the conduct of one or more administrators.
Dispute: A case that examines an intractible dispute between two or more editors directly.
Editor: A case about the (non-administrative) misconduct of an editor.
Functionary: A case centred around misuse of Suppressor or Checkuser permissions.
Omnibus: A case about misconduct in a topic area writ large.
Other: Any case that doesn't fall into one of the categories above.

Scope: The overall scope of the case.
CT?: An indication of whether or not a case includes or included a discretionary sanctions or contentious topic remedy.
Remedy name: The name of the remedy (or a description of it, for earlier cases which did not have sectioned remedies).
Remedy (in modern terms): Basically my best attempt to explain, in plain English and modern understanding, what the remedy means.

If this section has a coloured background, the colour indicates its status or origin:

Yellow (#FFFF00) is a temporary injunction issued mid-case.
Blue (#00BFFF) is a post-close amendment or motion.
Red (#CD5C5C) is a remedy that has since been rescinded or otherwise is wholly reliant on previous remedies that are themselves rescinded.
Green (#32CD32) is a remedy whose wording was amended post-close, either due to an amendment/motion or due to changes in process (such as Discretionary Sanctions to Contentious Topic).
Brown (#D2691E) is suspended or in abeyence, usually as part of a period where a remedy has been appealed.

Amended/Enacted: If a remedy was added or amended post-close, this will be the calendar date (in UTC) when the remedy was modified or took effect.
Rescinded: If a remedy was terminated, this will be the calendar date (in UTC) when the remedy was ended.
Enforceable?: Indicates whether a given remedy can be invoked at WP:AE. Any remedy that predates April 2006 and was not still in force by then predates AE entirely.
Sup/Opp/Abs/Rcs: The vote totals for a remedy (Support, Oppose, Abstain, Recused).

Any case that has been courtesy-blanked or closed without action will be given a very brief description and nothing further.

Scope: Nihonjoe's undisclosed conflicts of interest and actions taken to further it and a related block on Fram for posting personally-identifying information
CT?: No

Remedy name	Remedy (in modern terms)	Enforceable?	Sup	Opp	Rcs
New VRT queue established	The paid-en-wp mailing list (used exclusively by Checkusers to investigate conflict of interest matters) is wound down. In its place, a new Volunteer Responce Team queue is created, staffed by functionaries (Checkusers/Suppressors) and administrators who have signed the same privacy documents and undergone an appointment process similar to what functionaries have. Any cases from the queue, particularly credible [conflict-of-interest reports] involving an administrator, may be referred to ArbCom at the discretion of those answering the queue.	N/A	11	0	2
Fram admonished	Fram is admonished for exposing personally-identifying information repeatedly and told in no uncertain terms the next time he does so will be grounds for a summary Arbitration siteban.	No	6	5	2

Decided: Nov. 13, 2024
Abbrev.: YSK
Type: Dispute
Scope: Disputes over Yasuke's samurai status in light of an upcoming video game where he is a major character.
CT?: Close - current (Remedy)

Remedy name	Remedy (in modern terms)	Enforceable?	Sup	Opp	Abs
Contentious topic (Yasuke)	Provided the person being sanctioned has been alerted to the existence of this remedy, any administrator may summarily sanction a user who disrupts articles and discussions about Yasuke and his samurai status (hence the "YSK area") as they see fit. Any sanctions or warnings issued this way (both directly and consequentially) must be logged on the case page/centralised log and can only be appealed to WP:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement or to ArbCom directly. This remedy will automatically lapse if, starting on Jan. 1 2026, it has not been invoked for a two-year period.	Yes	8	0	1

Case renamed	The committee directs the clerks to rename the case to Yasuke [from "Backlash to diversity and inclusion"]. The Arbitrators initially began the case as a means of looking to expand GG's (now GS's) contentious topic authorisation, as the right-wing diversity, equity, and inclusion backlash was seen as an expansion/complement to the sex-based GamerGate. All evidence provided, however, was laser-focused on the situation at Yasuke, giving them nothing to work with when it comes to expanding the GS CT. A last-minute attempt at including a second contentious topic designation for diversity and inclusion as it related to video games failed at the 11th hour (4/5/0/0).	N/A	7	1	1
