The Arbitration Committee closed two cases this week.

A case against Jacrosse was closed on Thursday. As a result, Jacrosse was placed on indefinite probation, general probation, and personal attack parole, and banned from all politics-related articles. Jacrosse, who according to the Committee is either Justin Raimondo or a dedicated follower of Raimondo, was engaged in "sustained edit warring" on Neoconservatism and related articles. The article ban was considerably wider than most bans issued by the Committee, though no explanation was formally given for the ban.

A case against Messhermit was closed on Sunday. As a result, Messhermit was banned from articles relating to the Peru-Ecuador conflict for one year, and both Messhermit and Andres C. were placed on probation for one year. Messhermit edit-warred on the pages, in addition to making personal attacks against other users and "either misunderstanding or opposing NPOV."

One case was accepted this week, involving editors on the article 2004 U.S. presidential election controversy and irregularities.

Cases involving Deathrocker (user page), Infinity0 (user page), PoolGuy (user page), and are in the evidence phase.
