Other steps in dispute resolution that have been attempted:

This is a contentious debate that has rolled across many pages for many months. No matter how many times these issues are thoroughly discussed and temporarily resolved by a majority of editors, after a few weeks the issues returns with text being inserted that opens up the debate once again:

Issues to be mediated

edit
  • Should the libertarian/Austrian School analysis of national socialism, Nazism, and Fascism as forms of "collectivism" and thus related to all forms of socialism (and even the New Deal of Roosevelt) be considered not marginal but so important and major a school of scholarship as to be placed in various entry leads and occupy a relatively major part of various entries?
  • Is anyone who publishes a book or article on fascism, nazism, or collectivism to be considered a major scholar on the subject, or is it appropriate for a majority of editors active on a page to agree on which scholars are considered the leading scholars and highlight their views over more marginal views?

Additional issues to be mediated

edit
  • Do the majority of major scholars of fascism consider fascism a "far-right" form or usually allied with the political far right?
  • Do the majority of major scholars of Nazism consider Nazism a representative form of socialism?
  • Should National Socialism redirect to Nazism or National Socialism (disambiguation)?

Note about Parties (below)

edit

It is possible that some of the editors listed are away from their keyboard, or will disagree. Other editors have indicated that they might opt themselves into this mediation. PLEASE leave this page active for a full seven days, since at least two of us on different sides of this dispute want to move forward. Thnaks for being flexible. --Cberlet 20:42, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Intangible2.0 (talk · contribs) - it appears that this user continues to be "away from keyboard" and I propose that if this continues up to the seven day limit that we simply drop this user from the "involved parties" list.--Cberlet 13:02, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If the editor is not required for the Mediation, then I have no problem with that; please use your personal judgement if the editor will be needed for a resolution. anthony[review] 09:58, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
