[edit] Request for cabal mediation

[edit] Request Information

Request made by: Dothivalla 08:42, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
Where is the issue taking place?

University of Houston

Who's involved?

Dothivalla and RJN

What's going on?

Dothivalla removes Academic Boosterism. RJN re-adds the boosterism. About to become an edit war. Additionally RJN wants to see claims made by UH and not verified by anyone else maintained on the page. Dothi wants to see outside verification, specifically on the "most diverse student body" claim

What would you like to change about that?

Clarify if the UH page is engaging in Academic Boosterism. Clarify if UH's own claims about itself are printable in the article, even if rival institutions make the same claim about themselves.

If you'd prefer we work discreetly, how can we reach you?

Public communication is fine.

[edit] Mediator response

Made a posting on the talk page and contacted both parties. They seem to be working out differences, will see how it goes. --Wgfinley 01:49, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

No response, closing for lack of interest, can be reopened if needed. --Wgfinley 03:40, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
