- Agree. As we say in Texas, I don't have a dog in this hunt and will support any resolution of this issue by this process or any other. My only involvement has been to research the identity of the owner of the website in question. For reasons stated on other pages and discussions, I am convinced that Cassandra Strand (the owner) and Cassandra581 are the same person. SteveHopson 14:41, 24 May 2006 (UTC) (Comments Updated)

Usage of the actual term "Islamophobia" by WP editors
Involved parties
- Irishpunktom (talk · contribs)
- Netscott (talk · contribs)
- Raphael1 (talk · contribs)
- Karl Meier (talk · contribs)
Confirmation that all parties are aware of the request:
- Article talk pages:
- User talk pages:
Other steps in dispute resolution that have been attempted:
- Talk:Islamophobia#Efforts_combatting_Islamophobia_section
- Talk:Islamophobia#Usage_of_the_actual_Islamophobia_term_in_this_article
- User_talk:Netscott#Yes
Issues to be mediated
- Counter to the Avoid neologisms guidelines should the article be written while actually utilizing the "islamophobia" neologism outside of quotes and citations?
Additional issues to be mediated
- In respect to this neologism's status should it have an Examples of use in public discourse section (similar to the Islamofascism) article as it does in this version or not, as in this version?
Parties' agreement to mediate
- All parties should sign below, indicating that they agree to mediate the issue. If any party fails to sign, or if a party indicates they do not agree, then the mediation will be rejected.
- Agree as initiator of mediation demand. Netscott 17:11, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
- agree --Irishpunktom\ 09:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- Agree Raphael1 01:28, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- Agree
on the condition that Irishpunktom end his personal attacks and name-calling against me. It doesn't make any sense, and it will not be possible to discuss any such serious matters without some basic civility, and seen in the light of the very recent and very serious NPA violations, this will have to be agreed to by Irishpunktom for me to accept and spend time on any such mediation.-- Karl Meier 17:43, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
- We don't take conditional accepts; you have to either agree or disagree. You may propose conditions as a part of your continued participation once the mediation is accepted, but anything other than "Agree" is considered to be a refusal to take part. See the instructions on Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_mediation/Sample#Parties.27_agreement_to_mediate: Only signatures should go here, along with either "Agree" or "Do not agree." Any additional comments will be removed by a member of the Mediation Committee. Please indicate stright agreement, or disagreement. Essjay (Talk • Connect) 01:01, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
As soon as Irishpunktom indicate that he will end his personal attacks, I will remove the conditions that I have added here. He can mention that he agree to end his personal attacks here, on my talkpage or somewhere else. I doesn't matter much. But until he does indeed agree to that very basic rule I will not spend time or agree to any mediation that include him. -- Karl Meier 09:19, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure where to put this, but whilst I haven't been directly involved in edit wars on this topic, I have a stake in how this proceeds and have interacted frequently with all the users cited on this article. If the mediation is public, I'll watch regardless, but does the mediation process make sense for (thus far) an interested observer? Nysin 05:28, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Issues to be mediated
- This concerns the article, Neo-Tech. Bi claims that books published by Integrated Management Associates (a company that publishes material about a philosophy called Neo-Tech) cannot be used as references for the article about Neo-Tech ("Incidentally, the rules also say that "self-published books" are unacceptable as sources. Well, I think I'm going to throw out lots of stuff that come only from Neo-Tech's self-publications. Bi 10:03, 4 May 2006 (UTC)"), which is bizarre becase it's the only sources on the philosophy. Lest there be any doubt, WP:V plainly says: Self-published sources, and published sources of dubious reliability, may be used only as sources of information on themselves, and only in articles about them. For example, the Stormfront website may be used as a source of information on itself in an article about Stormfront, so long as the information is notable, not unduly self-aggrandizing, and not contradicted by reliable, third-party published sources. Self-published sources may never be used as sources of information on another person or topic. Of course you can use the books as sources about the philosophy, in the article about the philosophy! Otherwise, the article would be blank! (As an aside, I'd like to note that the company also publishes the work of other writers not associated with the company as well). Also, he sources "criticism" of Neo-Tech from web forums, self-published web pages, etc rather than from credible published sources. He expressed a desire for form dispute resolution, as have I. Please assist enforcing the Misplaced Pages policies on sourcing. It should be pretty simple and straightforward to mediate this. Thank you. RJII 01:58, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Additional issues to be mediated
- Thank you. In addition to being self-published, the Neo-Tech literature can be considered to be "unduly self-aggrandizing", which WP:V does not allow. Besides, given that Neo-Tech literature is self-published and self-aggrandizing, it would seem unfair to use a different standard for admitting views opposed to Neo-Tech. Bi 06:07, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Parties' agreement to mediate
- All parties should sign below, indicating that they agree to mediate the issue. If any party fails to sign, or if a party indicates they do not agree, then the mediation will be rejected.
- Agree. RJII 03:03, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
- Agree. Bi 06:08, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Decision of the Mediation Committee
- Accept/Reject/Extend:
- For the Mediation Committee,
- Chairman's note: Recuse from involvement. Another member of the committee will need to accept/reject the case and assign a mediator. Essjay (Talk • Connect) 06:38, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

- NOw I see Neo-Tech is a disambiguatio npage. Which one is this mediation about? -- Drini 12:24, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
