Issues to be mediated[edit]

Primary issues (added by the filing party)
  1. Biased editors are blanket deleting a new, well-researched introduction to a controversial subject and replacing it with an inaccurate, politically charged accusation which the new introduction, drafted from WP:NPOV, contradicts, and refusing to engage substantively with the Talk page discussion on the subject. The other editors mischaracterize attempts to promote WP:NPOV as a "false balance." Consensus in this setting will be impossible and a disinterested mediator should intervene.
Additional issues (added by other parties)
  • Additional issue 1
  • Additional issue 2

Parties' agreement to mediation[edit]

  1. Agree. Ginjuice4445 (talk) 01:14, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Decline - the request is so hopeless between personal attacks and the obvious entrenchment of the editor that this simply is a waste of everyone's time. Ravensfire (talk) 23:33, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee[edit]

  • Question. @Ravensfire: I cannot see where you have substantively contributed to the talk page discussion. If mediation does not proceed, what discussion or consensus-building activity do you intend to take up? Will you continue reverting changes to the article? AGK ■ 21:24, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reject. Failed to satisfy prerequisite for mediation #5, "A majority of the parties to the dispute consent to mediation". For the Mediation Commitee, TransporterMan (TALK) 20:29, 31 October 2018 (UTC) (Chairperson)[reply]
