[edit] Parties' agreement to mediate

All parties should sign below, indicating that they agree to mediate the issue. If any party fails to sign, or if a party indicates they do not agree, then the mediation will be rejected.

• Agree. Sbloemeke 19:21, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
• Agree. Fagstein 20:11, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Decision of the Mediation Committee

• Accept: I have a small concern that the parties may be expecting more from mediation than we can offer; the issues are phrased in a way that suggests they are looking for a binding decision from someone else. Mediators don't make such decisions; we help parties come to an agreement about such questions. As long as the parties are aware that the mediator will not be issuing a judgment, we should be fine.

For the Mediation Committee, Essjay ^{Talk • Contact} 05:44, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: Sbloemeke hasn't edited besides the two day interval on February 20 and 21. Is this mediation still necessary? Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 16:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

• I agree with Flcelloguy; mediation is closed, but may be reopened at the parties' request. Essjay ^{Talk • Contact} 10:56, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
