=My Appologis= ''Stay on topic. I will close this mediation otherwise and redirect all parties to AN/I.'' I am very upset about several ad hominem issues, and went a bit off topic. I appologize. A REDDSON

What do you think about Wikipedia_talk:Mediation_Cabal? Best regards, TransporterMan  ( TALK ) 21:28, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Indeed, as discussion is continuing on the subject but the possibility of changing MedCab to separate it from the lower levels of DR (say 3O and DRN) which it is pretty much on par with at the moment to something more of a middle ground between lower forms of DR and MedCom, as at present it is more of a super jump up from 3O/RFC/DRN/MedCab to MedCom, and since DRN was created MedCab has become a bit redundant. I spoke to Kim Bruning the other day about this and he thought that it's something worth discussing, but am interested in your thoughts.

MedCab
Hi Xav. Have a look at the new and improved MedCab. I'm also working on getting us a new bot that can perform the new tasks we will need it to. It's still relatively informal (not super serious like MedCom) but has a few suggested guidelines and stuff. I kinda ran wild with the layout and formatting. Let me know what you think.

I couldn't help but notice this. You aren't mad/annoyed at the changes we made? If you are we can always change it back. It's up to you. Steven Zhang The clock is ticking....  23:19, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Gil Birmingham birth date dispute
You mediated a dispute between me and Gil Birmingham's publicist in September regarding his date of birth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/01_September_2011/Gil_Birmingham). Recently Materialscientist edited the birthdate, citing IMDB, so I went to have a look, and his birth date has been changed on IMDB to the one I contended was correct in the dispute. However, I can't determine whether there is consesus on WP about IMDB as a reliable source for birth dates. Can you advise? Thanks MinervaK (talk) 07:50, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Request for Comments on Representation
Hi there! My name is Whenaxis, I noticed that you are on the Mediation Committee. I created a policy proposal called Representation. I think that this policy would help the Mediation Committee as well as the Arbitration Committee because the goal of this proposed policy is to decrease the amount of time wasted when an unfamiliar editor files a Mediation or Arbitration Committee when other forms of Dispute Resolution have not yet been sought. For example, an editor may come to the Mediation Committee requesting formal mediation when other dispute resolution areas have not been utilised such as third opinions or request for comments. A representative works much like a legal aid - there to help you for free and:


 * File a formal mediation case or an arbitration case on your behalf
 * Make statements and submit evidence at the case page on your behalf
 * Guide you through the expansive and sometimes complex policies and procedures of Wikipedia

This proposed idea can also help the editor seeking help because it can alleviate the stress and anxiety from dispute resolution because mediation and arbitration can be intimidating for those who are unfamiliar.

I would highly appreciate your comments on this proposal at: Wikipedia talk:Representation. Cheers and Happy New Year -  Whenaxis  about talk contribs 22:38, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
