  • Additional issue 2

Parties' agreement to mediation[edit]

  1. Agree. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 18:37, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Decline. There are several other parties not included. If all parties involved are included I may re-consider.- Cwobeel (talk) 21:24, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decision of the Mediation Committee[edit]

  • Chairperson's note: I would ordinarily reject this case at this point under prerequisite for mediation #5, as a majority of the parties have not agreed to mediation, but I'm going to allow a few days — let's say until Sunday, January 4, at 11:59 UTC — for both parties to add additional parties in light of Cwobeel's comments, above. Either currently-listed party may add additional parties and the maintenance bot will notify them. For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan (TALK) 07:28, 1 January 2015 (UTC) (chairperson)[reply]
  • Reject. No additional parties added, no agreement from majority of listed parties. For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan (TALK) 20:57, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
