Where is the dispute?
This section should explain where the problem is. Link to the articles where the dispute is taking place. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_No._77

Who is involved?
Just a list of the users involved. For example:


 * User:A
 * User:B

What is the dispute?
A calm explanation of what the problem is. Be as precise as you wish, but avoid general statements such as "User:X has a POV regarding article Y", as that's usually unhelpful. Provide diffs if possible, but try to keep the description brief. A list of issues that need to be addressed, such as this, would also help.

Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_No._77

What would you like to change about this?
Here, tell us what you would like to changed. Does the conversation need better structure? Are folks having difficulty communicating? Are they talking past each other? Stuff like that.

Under Further reading (at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_No._77), I have attempted to list two recently published journals articles and links thereto. One of the articles is by me. Both revisions have been deleted. The proposed additions are:


 * [Seth Barrett Tillman, The Puzzle of Hamilton's Federalist No. 77, 33 HARVARD J.L. & PUB. POL'Y 149 (2010), available at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1331664.]
 * [Professor Jeremy D. Bailey, The Traditional View of Hamilton’s Federalist No. 77 and an Unexpected Challenge: A Response to Seth Barrett Tillman, 33 HARVARD J.L. & PUB. POL'Y 169 (2010), available at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1473276.]

Both articles have become fairly widely cited in the short amount of time since publication.

How do you think we can help?
We are here to help you, but we need to know how. Sometimes mediators will look at a dispute and have no idea where to start, so please help us out. Do note that we will not "take sides" in any dispute.

Mediator notes
Can we start by making a list of the users active in the dispute, or if the number of users involved is large, have representatives of each side listed? Thank you. Ngchen (talk) 02:14, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

The case has received no input in more than a month. As such, I'm closing the case as stale. Ngchen (talk) 20:55, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
