== Arbitration motion regarding Lightbreather ==

The Arbitration Committee has resolved by [[Special:Permalink/1111600387#Lightbreather unban (alt)|motion]] that:

{{ivmbox|{{Diff2|892699375|Lightbreather:_Site-ban|Remedy 1}} of the ''Lightbreather case'' is suspended for a probationary period lasting twelve months from the date this motion is enacted. During this period, any uninvolved administrator may block {{user|Lightbreather}} for any of the behaviors identified in the {{Diff2|892699375|Findings_of_fact|Findings of Fact}} or for failure to adhere to any normal [[:Category:Wikipedia behavioral policies and guidelines|editorial process or expectations]] as an Arbitration Enforcement action for up to 1 year. Any block 3 months or longer should be reported to the [[WP:ARCA|Arbitration Committee]] for automatic review. The committee will consider presented evidence and statements before deciding by motion what, if any, actions are necessary, up to and including reinstating a site ban. In the event that no administrator imposes such a block, the remedy will automatically lapse after twelve months. Restrictions detailed in remedies 2-6 remain in place until actively appealed.}}

== Staxringold restoration of permissions ==

The Wikimedia Foundation has determined that {{user|Staxringold}} is back in control of his account. The Arbitration Committee has corresponded with Staxringold and, based on all available information, is assured that he will follow [[w:en:Wikipedia:Administrators#Security|appropriate personal security practices]] in the future. The Committee therefore restores his administrative access.

The Arbitration Committee is of the view that additional clarity about the Committee's [[w:en:WP:RETURN|return-of-adminship practices]] relating to account security is necessary. The Committee therefore invites interested community members to comment on the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Motions#Return of permissions motion|relevant motion]].

== Resignation of Donald Albury ==

I am resigning from the Arbitration Committee with an effective date of December 31, 2022. I am announcing my resignation now in order to allow the election of someone to complete the second year of my term through the annual election process that will start shortly.

I have not been contributing to the behind-the-scenes work of the committee, which is not fair to the other members of the committee (although they have been kind enough to not mention that to me). While I have not been contributing to that behind-the-scenes committee work, I have found that the time I spend reading e-mails and the project pages that are relevant to the committee's work is more than I enjoy spending. I have decided that I just want to go back to being an editor who occasionally performs an admin action.

I wish to thank everybody who voted for me last year, and hope you are not too disappointed that I am not completing my term. I also wish to thank my fellow ArbCom members for their support of, and patience with, me. My exposure to the inner workings of this part of the governance of the English Wikipedia has been reassuring to me about the durability and fairness of such governance.
