Parties' agreement to mediation[edit]

  1. Agree. Picture Master (talk) 22:28, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Disagree. This mediation request is premature. Picture Master (talk · contribs) has not sought consensus or otherwise discussed this content dispute on the article's talk page or followed any other steps indicated at WP:DR. I will respect any consensus if one is achieved. Sundayclose (talk) 00:32, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee[edit]

  • Reject. Fails to satisfy prerequisite for mediation #4 "The parties must have first engaged in extensive discussion of the matter in dispute at the article talk page and discussion only through edit summaries will not suffice," and #5 "A majority of the parties to the dispute consent to mediation."
