Mediator response
I have reviewed the case and there is a clear case of disagreement over the content of the article. I have councilled both parties to enter a discussion at the article talk page and requested some more sources be cited with the aim of resolving what should be in the article.

Evidence
Please report evidence in this section with for misconduct and  for 3RR violations. If you need help ask a mediator or an advocate. Evidence is of limited use in mediation as the mediator has no authority. Providing some evidence may, however, be useful in making both sides act more civil. Etiquette: Although it's understandably difficult in a heated argument, if the other party is not as civil as you'd like them to be, make sure to be more civil than him or her, not less.

Compromise offers
This section is for listing and discussing compromise offers.
