Decision of the Mediation Committee
[edit]- Reject. I am going to reject this case under the discretion given to the Chairperson under prerequisite to mediation #9 "to refuse or refer back to other dispute resolution venues (e.g. dispute resolution noticeboard, third opinion, request for comment, or additional talk page discussion) a dispute which would benefit from additional work at lower levels of the dispute resolution process." While any of those may be used (except perhaps third opinion, which has already been rejected by third opinion volunteers), I would strongly suggest that the parties accept the offer made by FoCuSandLeArN to prepare and negotiate a draft taking into consideration the disputed issues. There is good reason to believe from discussion on the talk page that a person with skills in the French language will be needed to help sort through the linguistic difficulties of the parties as well as sources which may be in French or for which French is needed to help determine reliability and Focus has a FR-3 ability in that language. The only Committee member who claims an advanced ability in French has only an FR-2 ability and is already tied up at the moment with a particularly difficult mediation. For those reasons, I believe that the best thing for the encyclopedia at this moment is to continue discussion at the talk page with the assistance of Focus. Failing that, the dispute should first go to the Reliable Sources Noticeboard for help with determining the validity (i.e. reliability) of sources and once that is complete, then to Dispute Resolution Noticeboard or to a properly-crafted request for comments or, sequentially, both. If all that fails, then this may be refiled here. For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan (TALK) 14:19, 18 August 2015 (UTC) (Chairperson)
- @ TransporterMan: FYI. It may help to keep in mind that D0kkaebi is involved in an obvious conflict of interest on this matter, being himself a high ranking member of the PRU/UPR team.
Under this user name or another (Lawren00), he has repeatedly promoted his party and François Asselineau, as well as repeatledly complained about the POV-pushing of other editors even when his own contributions were blatantly biased. So let's not be fooled by all these requests. Azurfrog (talk) 09:26, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
