[edit] What's going on?

For some time, a dispute has been on Taylor Allderdice High School. The discussion is about whether or not the school endorses the content of a student newspaper known as Foreword. User:Hiding has repeatedly deleted information given by User:0-0-0-Destruct-0 under the claim of WP:OR policy violation. But, 0-0-0-Destruct-0 considers to have the sufficient evidence that shows this information is not original research. The school chose the specific content, cited by 0-0-0-Destruct-0, from the student newspaper to reproduce under its own, separate corporate authorship in 1) its own periodical, "The Allderdice 51," and 2) its web site. 0-0-0-Destruct-0's position is that this corporate author endorses the contents of its publications, which content may then be used to source the corporate author's views.

[edit] What would you like to change about that?

Just to solve the situation civilly, without having to go to ArbCom for such a little and content-specific discussion, as User:Hiding has suggested.

[edit] Mediator response

I'm willing to do what I can to help the involved parties to reach a conclusion that they will find mutually satisfactory in this dispute. Please let me know that this offer is acceptable before we continue. Arkyan(talk) 21:44, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I accept this offer. 0-0-0-Destruct-0 22:44, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Accept. --Neigel von Teighen 12:17, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

All listed participants have accepted mediation offer. I am now collecting opening statements from the participants to zero in on the substance of the debate. Arkyan(talk) 21:56, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Like Hiding, I'm a bit busy too. I think I'll be free on next week, hopefully. --Neigel von Teighen 17:09, 4 May 2007 (UTC) Update: I'm here! --Neigel von Teighen 11:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Administrative notes

AMA advocate Neigel von Teighen has indicated that 0-0-0-Destruct-0 wishes to withdraw from the mediation process and seek formal mediation on the matter. Leaving the discussion page open for final comments. Arkyan(talk) 16:52, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Discussion has been closed with some agreements reached and solutions implemented to the article. A request for formal mediation has been made so I have ended this informal mediation. Arkyan(talk) 21:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
