Articles involved
Other steps in dispute resolution that have been attempted:
- Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Religion and philosophy
- User:Longhair help from an administrator
Issues to be mediated
- Exclusion 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)
- Consistency of a policy on identifying authors' affiliations (should authors not members of the A.S. be protected from any identification of their background or affiliations).
- Extent and number of quotations by Rudolf Steiner on race/ethnicity related topics in the main article Rudolf Steiner when an entire sub-article Rudolf Steiner's views on race and ethnicity is devoted solely to this question, and provides room for all such quotations.
- Use of links to pages including original research, or use of such pages as sources.
- Use of links to pages not including original research (transcripts or articles) residing on websites that do include original research
- Inclusion of editorial commentary on sourced material ("This conclusion is not surprising given the author's obvious bias...", etc.)
- Appropriateness of biographical information in the article about Rudolf Steiner (this is contested)
- Objectivity of information in and tone of Waldorf education article
- Tone of comments on talk pages, including the question of whether Misplaced Pages policies such as the assumption of good faith and avoidance of personal attacks are being followed.
Additional issues to be mediated
- Repeated referencing of defamatory original research websites within the articles and discussion pages
- Excessive whining and complaining to administrators
- Editors who produce incoherent pre-packaged opinions and reference them on their own original research websites
- Producing / Reverting edits without discussion
- Abuse of the mediation process
- Abuse of the quoting of Misplaced Pages Guidelines to intimidate new users
- 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 in an attempt to preserve their POV
- Whether allegations of defamation by Misplaced Pages editors should invalidate a given external source
- Whether external sources can contain what Misplaced Pages policy calls 'original research'
- Whether arbitration rather than mediation is appropriate to resolve these issues
