Request for mediation accepted
The request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning {{{case}}}, in which you were listed as a party, has been accepted by the Mediation Committee. The case will be assigned to an active mediator within two weeks, and mediation proceedings should begin shortly thereafter. Proceedings will begin at the case information page, [[Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/{{{case}}}]], so please [{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/{{{case}}}|action=watch}} add] this to your watchlist. Formal mediation is governed by the Mediation Committee and its Policy. The Policy, and especially the first two sections of the "Mediation" section, should be read if you have never participated in formal mediation. For a short guide to accepted cases, see the "Accepted requests" section of the Guide to formal mediation. You may also want to familiarise yourself with the internal Procedures of the Committee.
As mediation proceedings begin, be aware that formal mediation can only be successful if every participant approaches discussion in a professional and civil way, and is completely prepared to compromise. Please contact the Committee if anything is unclear.
For the Mediation Committee, {{{signature}}}

This message is substed by User:MediationBot onto the talk pages of users involved in a case to let them know that the case has been accepted for mediation. Specifically, the bot will post something like this to the users' pages:
