Parties' agreement to mediation

 * 1) Agree. OB1KINOB (talk) 00:47, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
 * 2) Ummm... seeing as how User:OB1KINOB and the just-blocked User:tbacon143 are most likely the same person this should probably be rejected (and maybe someone should file a WP:SPI though I don't know if it's even necessary).Volunteer Marek (talk) 05:25, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Decision of the Mediation Committee

 * Reject. Under prerequisite to mediation #9 which gives the Chairperson the discretion to "refuse or refer back to other dispute resolution venues (e.g. dispute resolution noticeboard, third opinion, request for comment, or additional talk page discussion) a dispute which would benefit from additional work at lower levels of the dispute resolution process." For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan  ( TALK ) 06:29, 5 May 2016 (UTC) (Chairperson))
