Issues to be mediated

Editors have used the following methods in an attempt to control the content of these articles:

  • Infusing original research and defmamtory statements in articles and talk pages
  • Endless unwarranted complaints about individual users with opposing POV's
  • Disguising the sources of information/reports - specifically disguising of works by members of the Anthroposophical Society as sources on anthroposophy; in particular a report by a Dutch commission on Steiner's comments about race. (This is at issue in two articles)
  • Redirection of content to defamatory websites - including housing of official documents on those websites
  • Repeated deletion of links to critical websites without discussion or explanation
  • Repeated deletion of properly cited quotations that are critical of Steiner or Waldorf without discussion or explanation
  • Repeated selective citing of Misplaced Pages policy to intimidate new users
  • Producing / Reverting edits without discussion
  • Abuse of the mediation process
  • Abuse of the Misplaced Pages Guidelines
  • Editors "teaming up" to revert edits and gaming the 3RR rule
  • Editors who attempt to pull administrators into private discussions about Misplaced Pages articles off-line
  • Editors who appeal to administrators to protect or semi-protect articles not involved in an edit war in an attempt to preserve their POV
