[edit] Request Information

Request made by: Alvis 06:19, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Where is the issue taking place?
Ninja_rocks
Who's involved?
Users Alvis and Melchoir
What's going on?
Alvis wants the article to discuss a lack of physical data to back up media claims. Melchoir feels that citing media reports is sufficient, and removes notices of the lack of evidence.
What would you like to change about that?
Alvis would like the article to explain what it's lacking, in the absence of an explanation involving physics.
Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
Alvis's user page is fine - no need to keep this secret.

[edit] Mediator response

I'm going to take a look at this case. I'll use Talk:Ninja_rocks for the discussion since there is no need to be secret. Tsetna 14:49, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

This case name has a space in front of it which is breaking the sort order. --Ideogram 19:01, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Someone fixed it. Thanks to whoever did it. Tsetna 16:41, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I am closing this case. After responding and summarizing the issue, Alvis did not dispute or press on, so the article will remain without a section casting doubt on Ninja Rocks (as it should, because there is no evidence online). Tsetna 16:35, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

He's back, so I'm opening this up again. Tsetna 19:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
There has been no additional discussion, so the issue is settled it seems! Tsetna 00:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
