	=== What is ~~it?~~ ===		Any marketplace, however well designed, will see disagreements: a service delivered late, a contract clause read two different ways, a payment disputed. The issue is rarely bad people; it is the absence of an affordable, trusted path to resolution. Court procedures are slow and expensive, and platform support teams often lack legitimacy. Arbitration Chambers aim to give WikiDeal users a fair, transparent and inexpensive way to resolve conflicts within their own community.
	~~Arbitration Chambers form a three-level dispute-resolution system~~ inspired by Wikimedia's Arbitration Committee~~. Disputes start in local~~ chambers, ~~can rise~~ to an intermediate instance tied to a domain or portal, ~~and finally reach an~~ ultimate authority~~. The top level uses~~ [~~https~~:~~//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/~~Condorcet_method Condorcet voting] and ~~can include~~ public citizen debates with mixed panels of experts and ordinary members.
			__TOC__

			<span id="the-need"></span>
			== The need: fair resolution without lawyers ==
			Picture Marc, who hired a babysitter through a WikiDeal contract, and Lea, the babysitter, who believes an extra hour was agreed verbally. Neither wants a lawsuit over a small amount. What they need is a neutral third party who understands the contract, listens to both, and decides quickly. This is the everyday use case the chambers are designed around.

			<span id="three-levels"></span>
			== The three levels ==
			The design, inspired by [[wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_(Wikipedia)\|Wikimedia's Arbitration Committee]], escalates only when needed:
			# '''Local chambers''' handle most disputes, close to the people involved.
			# '''An intermediate instance''', tied to a domain or portal (for example real estate or childcare), handles harder or recurring cases.
			# '''An ultimate authority''' decides the most significant questions, using [[wikipedia:Condorcet_method\|Condorcet voting]] and possibly public citizen debates with mixed panels of experts and ordinary members.

			<span id="roles"></span>
			== Who does what ==
			* '''Parties''' present their side and provide the contract and evidence.
			* '''Arbitrators''' (named and accountable community members) hear the case and issue a decision.
			* '''The community''' can follow public debates at the higher levels, which keeps the process transparent and legitimate.

	=== ~~How~~ it ~~works on WikiDeal =~~==		<span id="why-it-matters"></span>
	~~Most conflicts are meant to be resolved close to where they arise, with escalation reserved for harder cases~~. ~~Public~~, ~~transparent debate and accountable, named arbitrators are central~~ to the ~~design~~. The detailed procedures, eligibility, and timelines ~~will be~~ documented progressively as the platform evolves.		== Why it matters for the ecosystem ==
			Handling disputes inside the community supports two of WikiDeal's guiding aims: lower cost (no expensive intermediaries) and citizen participation (users themselves shape and staff the resolution process). Transparent, public reasoning at the upper levels is intended to build the kind of trust that no fine print can replace. The detailed procedures, eligibility rules and timelines are being documented progressively as the platform evolves.
