Comment | one of the main parties rejected mediation, mediation closed as unsuccessful |
Discussion is here: [1]
The hills in this template are up for discussion: [2]
Mainly:
But several others have responded at the RfC.
The dispute is about the names for the Golan hills, right now they have the hebrew names, I believe the standard, international and correct names are the Arabic ones.
Take a look at the last posts between me and Breein1007. [3] The conversation needs better structure and it feels like the other side are refusing to accept the sources they don't like.
Someone is needed to take a close look at the evidence provided from both sides, and move the conversation forward to a final agreement.
Mediation closed as unsuccessful, I make no comments about the merits of the case but in the light of this failure i would advise all parties to remember WP:WIN and WP:GETOVERIT and move on to focus their efforts elsewhere , I doubt that anything good can come from the continuation of dispute in this case.

In principle I would be interested in taking this case, but as I am unfamiliar with the issue I would first appreciate clarification as to the precise nature of the dispute. As I understand it the names for mountains in the Golan Heights currently are named according to the english translations of the Hebrew names, and there is a dispute over whether it would be preferable to name them by default by the english translation of their arabic names. Is that a correct summary of the dispute as you understand it?Ajbpearce (talk) 20:05, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
