Arbitration Committee/History
The history of ArbCom.
Conception
On October 1, 2003, RK threw a temper tantrum on the WikiEn-1 mailing list apparently as a result of a misunderstanding. In a fit of rage, RK vandalized the userpages of MyRedDice ([1], [2]), Angela ([3]), and Louis Kyu Won Ryu ([4]). When Eloquence commanded RK to stop, RK vandalized Eloquence's user page as well. Eloquence wasn't amused and blocked RK's account.
The story doesn't end there, however. The incidence lead to an argument about bans, and Eloquence suggested a Wikiquette committee. Jimbo Wales liked Eloquence's idea and started a discussion about it. During the discussion, Alex756 suggested two different approaches to resolving conflicts: mediation and arbitration. On October 3, 2003, Jimbo Wales [5] asked for volunteer for a Mediation Committee (MedCom) and an Arbitration Committee (ArbCom).
