Hi Ofer, Could you explain a bit more of the background what kind of questions you're trying to answer? I have been looking into voting on Wikipedia myself, and getting clean data is a challenge indeed.
Are you only interested in English or also in other communities? Do you refer with 'article' to the lemma around which a dispute was settled (in arbitration, it's often not a particular lemma) or rather the section of the rules that the ruling would refer to (quite common in Dutch, not sure if it is in other languages). As for polls, outside the 2010 dataset on admin elections in English Wikipedia, I have been unable to find any readily available data myself. Most likely, you'd have to collect it from various pages and interpret the data. It depends on the type of polls you're interested in, how straight forward that is. (If I overlooked something, I would be happy to be corrected!)
