Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Liam Neeson". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 24 January 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

User script listing cleanup project

I'm leaving this message for known script authors, recent contributors to Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts, and those who've shown interest in user scripts.

This scripts listing page is in dire need of cleanup. To facilitate this, I've created a new draft listing at Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts cleanup. You're invited to list scripts you know to be currently working and relevant. Eventually this draft page can replace the current scripts listing.

If you'd like to comment or collaborate on this proposal, see the discussion I started here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject User scripts#Scripts listing cleanup project. Thanks! Equazcion (talk) 04:59, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure why I got this message (perhaps my question at VPT?) but thanks. Hot StopUTC 05:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Deletion of Section

Hello, Why is the section I posted not allowed? Athleek123 (talk) 04:45, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Same reason we don't have similar sections for Obama, Bush, McCain, Cameron, or Brown (among many others). Also note that if you read the article, there a several examples given of how he's changed his positions over time. Hot Stop 04:52, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
No, we don't have sections like this for other politicians because they don't change their positions or don't change their positions enough for it to be notable. Mitt Romney flip-flops so much that it has become a defining characteristic for him. Besides, as you said, there are examples of him flip flopping in the article, the table simply brings them all together Athleek123 (talk) 04:55, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

In The News/Recurring Items

I am posting here to ask for editors to look at Wikipedia:In_the_news/Recurring_items and to comment at the talk page to discuss/vote on an amendment to the ITN/R list. I am posting this message on a number of editor's talk pages to encourage debate.

In connection to an ongoing debate on which items can appear on the front page under "In The News", "Recurring Items" are nominated events which require very little debate in the nomination process.

I propose the following amendment to the current ITN/R list. In addition I will put this on the talk page of as many editors as I can find who are contributors to ITN/C

At Wikipedia:In_the_news/Recurring_items, I propose the following amendment to section 3:

  • At line 5, delete "and", and add after "territories" the words "and the world's twenty smallest nations".

Section 3, Line 5 would then read:

  • Disputed states, dependent territories and the world's twenty smallest nations should be discussed at WP:ITN/C and judged on their own merits.


I look forward to the debate doktorb wordsdeeds 07:21, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

There was already another comment there. It doesn't seem to belong any more than mine. I don't get it. BTW, the RfC discussion is already an illogical mess, without effective responses to serious, constructive comments. I suspect things will only get worse. HiLo48 (talk) 11:56, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

ITN

Hi, just letting you know, I am totally in support of just not posting the minor elections. In my view, under normal ITN rules, out of the Greek, Armenian, Syrian, Serbian, and French elections, probably only France stands out as an obvious "post" while all the others should undergo discussion. Perhaps Greece is a pass given that country's recent turmoil. But then there are a lot of editors who would argue against me, saying they are all notable because of sovereignty etc. Regardless, just to point out that originally we were in agreement about striking minor elections, but there was a significant amount of opposition to that... which is what made me propose the 'ticker' idea in the first place. Colipon+(Talk) 14:37, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

I just don't see how throwing all the elections together in one spot will make a difference. It would still group important ones no none cares about like France with lesser ones like Serbia. As I mentioned earlier there should be a broader discussion of the issue on the MP's talk page instead of on less viewed itn ones Hot Stop 18:15, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
