What is the dispute?
The dispute is over the medal count tables and whether Russia has inherited statistics of Soviet Union. I and some other users have provided at least 3 official sources (including official e-mail reply) to support the fact that Russia indeed has inherited the statistics and the medals. However, some users pushing their PoV and decline to accept the fact. The discussion about all these goes here.

What would you like to change about this?
The medal count currently removed from one of the articles(List of IIHF World Championship medalists), and we need to put it back. On the List of IIHF World Championship medalists the table is present, however in the wrong format, this also needs to be changed in line with official source information.

How do you think we can help?
The problem there is that ice hockey is an interesting game, and sometimes those who like the game don't posses neutral point, I hope that you can enforce the neutral point of view in those two articles (tables) and make them better for all readers of Wikipedia.

Administrative notes
Given that this issue has been resolved via an OTRS ticket from the IIHF, would anyone object if we simply closed this without involving a mediator? Resolute 00:37, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
