Many of the involved editors on ''both'' sides have reached the point of ], and it will take "official" mediation to break through that attitude.

I think the mediators should focus on helping editors determine the DUE WEIGHT issue... whether the opinion expressed in breitbart should be mentioned in the article, and if so... ''how''? ] (]) 14:35, 18 January 2015 (UTC) (note... since I wrote the above comment, the second question has been edited.

#Agree. It's clear that the RFC did nothing to address the issues with this source. You have some editors who claim it solved question #1 and other editors who say it solved question 2, and it did neither. I'd rather have an un-involved mediation committee review the information than having a random third party with previous relations with involved editors making a closing judgement.] (]) 16:16, 18 January 2015 (UTC) |

# <insert>Update: '''Agree'''<insert>As others observed, the reliability issue has been , and since the dispute here is over Breitbart's "own opinions and viewpoints", #2 is frivolous if not nonsensical. Regarding content inclusion, continually having left leaning editors single out the primary conservative source used in the section for removal after their previous attempts to gain consensus for purging the source failed won't resolve the issue. It's unacceptable to keep focusing on Breitbart while ignoring the Huffington Post, Daily Kos, Media Matters, Salon.com, Slant, Indie Wire, and numerous other leftist sources currently quoted for their opinions in the article.

I'm not interested in merely tacking on another issue ("oh but let's look at everything else too") to a mediation request that begins by singling out Breitbart, giving the discussion a slanted shape. Since there's a consensus that Breitbart is reliable for its own opinions, there's no rational, compelling reason to single out the source for removal. A content inclusion discussion should focus on weight and neutrality, which can't be divorced from the context of the rest of the article.

#'''Agree''' I believe the previous RfC conclusively established consensus (at that time) for the inclusion of the Christian Toto review on behalf of Breitbart (including both potential ] issues and ] issues). The later comments by Ben Shapiro were not include in that RfC (in my opinion), and while Breitbart was considered a RS for its own opinions on the movie itself Ben Shapiro's comments at least potentially opened problems for ] which were not accounted for in the RfC (I do not believe the BLP claims are valid, but that goes to the heart of the current matter). That said the Ben Shapiro comments were added, and sat on the page for a month before an objection was raised on the talk page, that to me shows that they (at that time prior to the objection raised a month after addition), had consensus by editing. Currently we appear to be in no-consensus as to the removal of the Ben Shapiro comments and mediation would appear appropriate to at least attempt to break that no-consensus result (a real consensus either way is better then no consensus if it can be resolved). --] (]) 03:48, 20 January 2015 (UTC) |
