 Note: By motion of the Arbitration Committee, the findings and remedies contained in this case's final decision are withdrawn insofar as they reflect adversely on the editor identified as "Vanished user." The Committee notes that after receiving feedback about the use of his administrator tools, the editor identified as "Vanished user" voluntarily agreed to give up his tools and to consult with the Arbitration Committee should he wish to become an administrator in the future.

For the Arbitration Committee,

Following review of the case, a statement was adopted on 29 June 2009 that "The present Arbitration Committee has reviewed the Matthew Hoffman case, which took place in December 2007 and January 2008. The Committee has concluded that a series of significant irregularities occurred which, in combination, were prejudicial to Shoemaker's Holiday." It listed the irregularities, and stated that "This unique confluence of irregularities resulted in a fundamentally flawed process and the present Committee takes this opportunity to apologize to Shoemaker's Holiday and to the community. Further, the Committee has determined that all findings reflecting adversely on Shoemaker's Holiday, under any account name, are nullified. The Committee notes that Shoemaker's Holiday has agreed to consult with the Committee prior to re-seeking adminship."

I don't know if this page should be updated again, but Kirill Lokshin seems to be editing a different subject now, so I figured I might just post a query here to ask if this could be mentioned on this page somewhere? NW ( Talk) 00:34, 18 June 2009 (UTC) reply

Can this: [1] be discussed and linked to on this, and all pages related to the case. This motion supplements the motion linked. Shoemaker's Holiday ( talk) 06:47, 21 July 2009 (UTC) reply

Not done: the page is not protected, so I'm declining the {{ editprotected}} request. You can edit the page yourself. Though, feel free to discuss more here first.— C45207 | Talk 07:50, 21 July 2009 (UTC) reply

The page is protected. My bad.— C45207 | Talk 07:55, 21 July 2009 (UTC) reply
