[edit] JDR/Reddi, User:Mirv and Lord Kenneth
I've found both of them intolerable on the scientific skepticism page. They insist on bias, POV inclusions to Scientific_skepticism and refuse to compromise. They will not let me take out any of their inaccurate, untrue, and irrelevent additions and biased, POV links. They refuse to discuss it on talk (or at least pay attention) and JDR himself seems to want to refuse mediation. I compromised by leaving the section in and taking out the untrue and irrelevent parts, but they insisted on their bias. - Lord Kenneth 02:43, Jan 28, 2004 (UTC)
- I have no interest in mediation on this issue yet. The state of the debate over scientific skepticism is currently deplorable, despite Bryan Derksen's admirable efforts; I have a new approach that may resolve the disagreements, but it will take some time. If it fails, then we'll see. — No-One Jones (talk) 02:57, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Martin Harper + Robert Kaiser
On [1], Robert wrote "I am requesting mediation". I would like to second that request. I trust that mediation will cover the range of conflict between myself and Robert. Martin 16:10, 25 Jan 2004 (UTC)

- I already said yes to TUF-KAT. Do you have any objections to him? Martin

- No one ever mentioned him as a moderator to me. RK 14:53, Jan 31, 2004 (UTC)

- TUF-KAT volunteered to mediate on your user talk page (and mine) on 06:43, 26 Jan 2004, and you responded to him there on 21:07, 28 Jan 2004, under the header "Mediation". Does that jog your memory? Martin 17:22, 31 Jan 2004 (UTC)
[edit] User:Sam Spade - User:Bryan Derksen
Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Sam Spade and Bryan Derksen
I don't want to focus on complaining/arguing here. I want an end to the broken record of circular arguments and constant reverts I am recieving from this user, and I would appreciate some assistance. Sam Spade 23:30, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- And I would love to expand the number of people who are aware of what Sam's been up to. He's made a variety of complants about me in the past already, notably Wikipedia:Conflicts between users/JackLynch (Sam's username used to be JackLynch) and Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Bryan Derksen, and as far as I'm concerned he's simply trying to bully me away with these things. Any of the members of the mediation committee look fine to me, where do we go now to present our respective cases? Bryan 20:22, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- Assuming there is no objection, I have a preference for User:Dante Alighieri. Sam Spade 02:42, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)
It has recently been brought to my attention that I've been accepted by both parties. Mediation will proceed shortly. I'll take the weekend to organize the process on my end. Bryan and Sam, you may want to take the time to organize and categorize your talking points and relevant references. I'll contact you both Monday. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 09:28, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)
===168...|...Talk + User:TakuyaMurata=== Taku is chasing down my pages and undoing my changes, which are part of a directory project that he has an allergy to for some reason. I've had very positive feedback from Martin and one other. I've told Taku the concept. But he keeps hammering away. I don't know what his problem is. This is kind of urgent. 168...|...Talk 02:50, 8 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- You need to go through the steps of Wikipedia:Conflict resolution. You have already discussed it a little bit with Taku (I may be missing some talk -- all I see is on Taku's talk page), but please try to respond to his concerns on some appropriate talk page and seek community opinion before requesting mediation. Tuf-Kat 06:25, Feb 13, 2004 (UTC)
That's lame. Taku gets to revert my edits with abandon, hurl private accusations and publicly denounce me, and the response I get to my request for mediation is this one 5 days later to say I'll receive no assistance. I received unsolicited opinions from a couple people supporting my project, which is part of why I felt entitled to combat Taku's relentless reversions. I believe I fulfilled all the steps that could reasonably be expected under the circumstances, and I feel I have been extremely poorly served by the system. Given my recent railroad trial, I suspect this disservice reflects discrimination against the accused and a presumption of guilt.168...|...Talk 23:05, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- No one is making any such presumptions. It would just be better if you tried to seek other people's views on this first, using the requests for comment page. Mediation is pretty close to a last resort. It's important to have attempted the other steps first, which as far as I can tell, you haven't done. Angela. 00:13, Feb 19, 2004 (UTC)
I wanted mediation IMMEDIATELY while Taku was reverting my work and subverting my efforts to create a prototype directory that would illustrate what I had in mind for my project. I did not get that help,and my attempt to create a prototype to properly advertise the project was successfully prevented thanks to the opinion and industry of one guy. Because I am now pissed off about it, very busy defending my reputation and not devoted enough to the directory idea to campaign for it in the face of inexplicable (to me) opposition, I'm dropping it. 168...|...Talk 01:20, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
