For the Mediation Committee, —Guanaco 02:45, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

I was originally mediating this case for the mediation cabal, but didn't actually begin talking as I was trying to consume the talkpage. I'd like to take it as a demonstration of my abilities for my candidacy to the mediation committee if no-one involved has any objection. I will read through what I can find and then contact the disputants accordingly. —Xyrael / 19:13, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Now being mediated over e-mail. —Xyrael / 21:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

This case has reached a solution and the participants are going to incorporate this into the article by themselves. —Xyrael / 10:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
