This template may be used to inform parties that the Committee has declined to hear a case request they are named in. Template:Arb premature provides more information than this template so may be more helpful in some circumstances.


Note: the template does not include a section header as this would require the clerk to edit the whole talk page and scroll down to the bottom a suggested header is Request for Arbitration declined.

The basic usage of this template is:

{{subst:Arb declined|oldid=OLDID|name=NAME}}

If the case request was withdrawn by the filing party rather than declined the following version may be used to change "declined" to "withdrawn and archived":

{{subst:Arb declined|oldid=OLDID|name=NAME|withdrawn=yes}}

Both of these parameters must be defined or the template will not work.

  • OLDID is the oldid of the permalink to the case request (that is the version before the case was removed from the requests page).
  • NAME is the name of the section header (which should be the case name).


The template allows for a salutation to be prepended to the text of the message using the |salutation= parameter. For example:

{{subst:Arb declined|oldid=OLDID|name=NAME|saluation=Hi Callanecc!}}

The template automatically includes your signature, this can be suppressed by including |sig=no as a parameter. That is,

{{subst:Arb declined|oldid=OLDID|name=NAME|sig=no}}
