[edit] Request Information

Request made by: Vaughan 12:28, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Where is the issue taking place?: Schizophrenia

Who's involved?: Myself Vaughan and Mihai cartoaje

What's going on?: Mihai persistently deletes the violence section of the article. He has objected to its presence before, and started a mediation process on the same issue only to pull out before it was resolved. He has now returned and continues to delete the section. So far, no substantial objections to the content have been offered.

What would you like to change about that?: I would like the violence section to remain, as it counters commonly held misconceptions about the dangerousness of people with schizophrenia and is drawn from peer-reviewed scientific research.

Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?: ...

[edit] Mediator response

I'm willing to take the case. - MSTCrow 00:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

As this case appears in be in mediation, I have changed the category below to properly show that. Please periodically keep this page updated with how things are going, and don't hesitate to ask if you ever need help. Thanks. Cowman109^Talk 21:50, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

I am closing this case as requested, as it seems the issue has died down and one of the disputants does not appear to be cooperating. I will leave a comment on the talk page, as it appears that policy is the solution in this case and the information that was removed did not violate any policy that I'm aware of (and it was heavily sourced). Should further trouble arise, filing another request for mediation may be best. Thanks. Cowman109^Talk 23:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
