Decision of the Mediation Committee

This section should only be edited by a mediator. The Mediation Committee's representative will indicate in due course whether the request is accepted (meaning a mediator will be assigned) or rejected (meaning you will have to try a different type of dispute resolution). If the mediator asks you a question in this section, you may edit here.

• Reject: Fails to satisfy prerequisite to mediation #4 due to insufficient recent discussion. For the Mediation Committee, TransporterMan (TALK) 01:30, 10 July 2017 (UTC) (Chairperson)
