Issues to be mediated

What is this dispute about? What sections, sentences, or issues in the article(s) can you not agree on? If you are the editor who opened this request, list these issues to be mediated under "Primary issues". If you did not open this request, you can add additional issues to be mediated under "Additional issues". The issues to be mediated would be properly agreed upon later, if this request for mediation is accepted.

Primary issues (added by the filing party)

1. There should be no information about Haitian ancestry in the Sammy Sosa article, because there are not credible sources indicating that information. Since Sammy Sosa have been scrutinized to the limit and many books have been written about his personal life, but any newspaper, magazine or book have ever indicated that information, this should be droped.

Additional issues (added by other parties)

• Additional issue 1
• Additional issue 2
