[edit] Issues to be mediated

  • Article size
  • Technical jargon and accessibility
  • Deletion of whole sections without proper consensus
  • Edit warring
  • Tendentious editing and article ownership by certain editors.
  • Inclusion of unverified information as a "point of view"
  • Continual removal of verified information from reliable sources, while including only information that supports a single point of view.
  • Undue weight given to certain concepts, for example the multiregional hypothesis has a section of it's own and any mention that it is a small minority point of view gets imediately removed, even though this is true and verified.

Armed Blowfish, a member of the Committee, says he will be happy to take this case. However, he has a concern that he recognises one of the names on the party list from a previous interaction. Armed Blowfish's concerns centres around that he suggests that one of the parties may object to his offer due to possibly having a previous interaction with him, although he is unsure of the exact nature of such interaction.
Could all four parties please email Armed Blowfish, by clicking this link, noting that they either agree or disagree to his offer to mediate. Hopefully, we can proceed from there. Cheers, Daniel 06:24, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
