Issues to be mediated edit

  • After making wild accusations about me personally here and marking a page I have edited with AfD here, User:Skaraoke refused to allow the edits I contributed to a page he created here. I have clearly established my interest and expertise in this area via past edits; User:Skaraoke is apparently a new WP user. After a few days of his continued and slanderous attacks, I brought the issue to WP:MEDCAB. After this, User:Skaraoke continued his slanderous accusations, with strong indications that he introduced sockpuppets onto WP. After other editors pointed this out here, User:Skaraoke attacked them on that page, and even on one of their own talk pages. After a day User:Skaraoke took the tag off of School of Education twice, and has now stated that he will not participate in any voluntary mediation process. I understand that this is that, as well; however, I am left without recourse. So my issues are: (1) Personal slander; (2) Edit wars; (3) AfDing a page in retribution for Talk page comments; (4) Attacking other editors, and; (5) Refusal to participate in mediation via the Mediation Cabal. - Freechild 23:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee edit

Rejected, parties fail to agree to mediation. However, upon looking into it, I feel that both users should take a step back, calm down, and breathe a bit deeper before proceeding. Civil discussion and a some good old assumption of good faith could get this problem resolved and nip it in the bud before it gets out of hand.

Issues to be mediated edit

  • In article, Mudaliar which is a title used by many grousps, group Sengunthar is being slandered against while groups like Kondai Katti Vellala are being deleted.
  • In articles, Sengunthar , Sengundhar, kaikolar, Kaikolan, the group Sengunthar is being slandered and vandalized by User:mudaliar and his socks. A check user has revealed that he is using socks for over a period of 4 months. These 4 are exact identical articles and need to be merged. [1]
  • In article, Devadasi, slandering of Sengunthar is happening. It is being falsely claimed that Sengunthar / Kaikolar are the origin of all devadasis throught India, when infact the name of the group is called Isai Vellala, who had been using Kaikolar name for hiding their origin as Vellala. This editing started only after the revert wars in article Mudaliar proving that the edits are maliciously motivated.

Rejected. It appears to me that consensus has already been formed via the RFC, however I could be wrong.
