Voting on PD/Closure Timeline: linking word for clarity
Line 58:
The proposed decision is a complex document prepared by multiple people that will affect many editors. As I noted last night, I have no intention of voting on findings and remedies until there is an opportunity for editors to comment on the proposals, and although I did vote on the principles, those votes too are subject to modification based on input that may come in suggesting difficulties or improvements. Although for various reasons it took us longer than expected to post the proposed decision, I do not, and I don't believe any arbitrator does, believe that the way to mitigate that is by rushing to a conclusion now.

:Will the arbitrators actually read the comments being made at the proposed decision? Because I can't see ''any'' indication that the arbitrators took the Evidence and Workshop pages into account when formulating the PD. The PD in its current form could easily have been put together before the case even started, saving everybody a lot of trouble and acrimony.

::Agreed. I presented extremely compelling [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate_change/Evidence#Evidence_presented_by_A_Quest_for_Knowledge evidence] but much of it appears not to have factored into the Arbitration Committee's proposed decision. The problem we face is far greater than the three editors sanctioned or even the six editors that I've presented evidence against. Does anyone seriously believe that sanctioning a mere three editors will result in an editing environment based on mutual respect and cooperation?
