Coren's Arbcom remedy is not so new[edit]

RE: "Coren has proposed the creation of a new type of arbitration remedy, "supervised editing", which an editor may be placed under when he or she does not "engage other editors or the editorial process appropriately"."

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Great Irish Famine: Remedies: The article Great Irish Famine is placed under the mentorship of three to five administrators to be named later. All content reversions on this page must be discussed on the article talk page. Further terms of the mentorship are contained in the decision and will be amplified on the article talkpage.

That remedy is different from what Coren is proposing, which is a mentorship of specific editors wherein the "supervisor" has specific authorities and responsiblites that have never been granted in this manner before. seresin ( ¡? ) 21:56, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
