Issues to be mediated
Looie496 removed my contribution to all three of the above talk pages.
 * Primary issues (added by the filing party)

The vast majority of the sentences and statements on all of the three talk pages have no citations. Why should I be the only one who has to follow this rule all of a sudden?

Looie496 wrote on my talk page [] that discussing the topic is prohibited, yet that is exactly what he did on the page -- discussed the topic (See his contributions to the talk pages of "Imagination" and "Chinese Room").

The contributions from Looie496 to both those talk pages all lack citation.

If only a portion of a contribution violates a guideline, another user should not have the right to simply remove the entire contribution -- no one should have that right.

The user Randykitty wrote on my talk page that long contributions are, in her opinion, inappropriate. There is no permissible limit to contribution length, per contribution.

Decision of the Mediation Committee

 * Reject: Fails to satisfy prerequisite for mediation #4, "The parties must have first engaged in extensive discussion of the matter in dispute at the article talk page and discussion only through edit summaries will not suffice."
