Request Information

 * Request made by: KarlBunker 11:22, 25 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Where is the issue taking place?
 * Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal


 * Who's involved?
 * KarlBunker, User:Davkal


 * What's going on?
 * 2-person edit conflict. After 8,000 + words of debate, we've stopped making progress, and Davkal is becoming (mildly, so far) abusive.


 * ''What would you like to change about that?
 * I believe Davkal is pushing a POV, and has become increasingly resistant to logical discourse. Perhaps an outside opinion would help. I haven't registered this in 3rd Opinion (or whatever it's called) because some time investigating the article's subject may be required.


 * Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
 * Non-discreetly on my Talk page is okay.

Mediator response
New mediator needed I have put this case back into the in need of mediators section, hopefully a new mediator will be back here to respond shortly. I believe the discussion was occuring on the talk page of the article in question. Cowman109 Talk 22:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks; yes to both--we need a new mediator, and the discussion is in the Talk page. Some issues have been resolved, so a new mediator shouldn't need to read through the whole lengthy discussion to date. KarlBunker 01:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

This case has been resolved. Ideogram 01:58, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
