Parties' agreement to mediation

edit
  1. Agree. LADY LOTUSTALK 20:46, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Respectfully decline for the present time - While I appreciate Lady Lotus' effort to sort the matter in an amicable way, I do not think the current status of the debate requires this level of oversight and feel that the issue in question is likely to be resolved through normal editorial processes very shortly--be it through increased involvement via the RfC or developments with the sources themselves. Further, I am a very minor party to this discussion, have very little more to contribute to my interpretation that I have not set down on the talk page already, and am already involved in several time-consuming projects and discussions vieing for my currently limited wiki-time. If this changes, I may revisit this forum. Snow (talk) 23:37, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Even though my preference is now to include the information, since there is no consensus one way or the other, the right thing to do is clearly to wait a couple of months and the question will resolve itself. I remind everyone that this is not a serious or urgent issue. For these reasons, I will not be participating in the discussion any further, either here or anywhere else. – Smyth\talk 01:44, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee

edit
  • I recommend that we reject this request for failing to meet prerequisite #8, "No related dispute resolution proceedings are active in other Wikipedia forums." An RfC, just filed yesterday by this same applicant, is pending at the article talk page on this issue. It should be allowed to run its ordinarily-30-day course before any other dispute resolution is considered. — TransporterMan (TALK) 21:52, 27 March 2014 (UTC) (committee member)[reply]
  • Reject. Per TransporterMan: There is another dispute resolution process active. Agreed that this can best be resolved by normal editing processes in due time. For the Mediation Committee Sunray (talk) 20:21, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
