Decision of the Mediation Committee

This section should only be edited by a mediator. The Mediation Committee's representative will indicate in due course whether the request is accepted (meaning a mediator will be assigned) or rejected (meaning you will have to try a different type of dispute resolution). If the mediator asks you a question in this section, you may edit here.

• Reject: Fails to satisfy prerequisite for mediation #8, "No related dispute resolution proceedings are active in other Wikipedia forums." The RFC pending on the article talk page involving some or all of these issues constitutes such a proceeding, since RFC's are a form of dispute resolution. Please wait for the RFC to finish, typically 30 days, before considering filing other dispute resolution requests.
