Dispute specifics

Involved users

1. Blackash (talk · contribs), filing party

To ensure there is no confusion I am Becky Northey co-founder of Pooktre with a potential COI (an artist in this field), I have already tried to address this issue by going to various notice boards.

1. Slowart (talk · contribs) is also editor Reames (talk · contribs)

Is self outed as Richard Reames with a COI as the creator of the word Arborsculpture and potential COI as an artist in this field. I was not sure which editors I should list, so I listed the two long term editors of the article who have been involved in all the discussions. There have been multiple editors brought in to try to settle this dispute across a range of articles.

• Listed with the Mediation Committee here Which was initially rejected by AGK but after Admins SilkTork and RegentsPark's comments were pointed out to him he decided to except the listing. Unfortunately due to bad timing on my part the case was closed with no resolution in one way or the other. As things had quietened down at tree shaping talk I decided that I would not pursue this further unless the issue of arborsulpture arose again.
• When an editor removed 3 alternative names out of the lead. It was quickly reverted and the editor was asked not restart this old argument. Referring to the word Arborsculpture as became clear on the tree shaping talk.
