Issues to be mediated

edit
Primary issues (added by the filing party)
  1. Why are the Harry James covers of Caravan being repeatedly deleted? Despite a lengthy discussion on the Caravan talk page, the two editors are unable to reach an agreement of whether the WP:SONGCOVER criteria have been met. The latest deletion has also removed the cover by Santo & Johnny. Please provide resolution of which of the four covers should remain on the page (Santo & Johnny, Duane Eddy, Harry James, and John Wasson).

This seems too small for MedCom. Wikipedia:Third opinion is probably the best option. Binksternet (talk) 01:06, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee

edit
  • Reject. I'm going to reject this case under the discretion given to the Chairperson under prerequisite to mediation #9 that "the Committee has the discretion to refuse or refer back to other dispute resolution venues (e.g. dispute resolution noticeboard, third opinion, request for comment, or additional talk page discussion) a dispute which would benefit from additional work at lower levels of the dispute resolution process."
