Issues to be mediated
[edit]- Primary issues (added by the filing party)
- There is a major controversy in {{Ifa}} regarding whether the role of Iyalawo is a valid one. Both sides should be addressed.
- Additional issues (added by other parties)
- There might be a conflict of interest as Lozen8 indicates on his user page that he "is also the author of the work Babalawo, the High Priests of Santería from Llewellyn Worldwide to be released on February 8, 2015."
Parties' agreement to mediation

Decision of the Mediation Committee
[edit]- Reject. I'm going to reject this case under the authority granted to the chairperson under prerequisite to mediation #9, "the Committee has the discretion to refuse or refer back to other dispute resolution venues (e.g. dispute resolution noticeboard, third opinion, request for comment, or additional talk page discussion) a dispute which would benefit from additional work at lower levels of the dispute resolution process." For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan (TALK) 18:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC) (chairperson)
