Questions:

[edit]

Have you read the AMA FAQ?

  • Answer: Yes

How would you describe the nature of this dispute? (policy violation, content dispute, personal attack, other)

  • Answer: policy violation (resolved) followed by personal attacks

What methods of Dispute Resolution have you tried so far? If you can, please provide wikilinks so that the Advocate looking over this case can see what you have done.

  • Answer: attempted mediation over policy violation; respondees responded by attacking me rather than addressing the issue

What do you expect to get from Advocacy?

  • Answer: agreement from the parties to stop their attacks and withdraw any outstanding attacks. Removal of disproven accusations against me from the Starwood arbitration.

Summary:

[edit]

I was attempting to pursue a problem with sources and conflict of interest on Celtic Reconstructionist Paganism. Several editors of that article responded with false accusations of ulterior motives implying sockpuppetry. They also make accusations against me in an ongoing arbitration in which they were already involved but to which I was not and am not a party.

I attempted to open a mediation case with the Mediation Cabal. The editors responded with even stronger attacks and the mediation did not proceed, although one of the editors had already voluntarily removed the use of the questionable source. These editors were joined in these accusations by a previously uninvolved editor, Mattisse.

Following the failure of the mediation, several of the editors continued to badmouth me on the talk page of the mediator involved. Again they were joined by Mattisse.

Even though a checkuser was performed by an arbitrator (or clerk?) for the mediation, and it showed that I was not a sockpuppet of any of the parties, Paul Pigman continues to insist on keeping the "evidence" against me in the arbitration.

I don't want to post on any of the arbitration pages, as I believe that would make me a party to the arbitration. I would like someone to advocate for the removal of the accusations against me there, as they have proven to be baseless.
