Hello, all. I've just been named a Coordinator of the Mediation Cabal, and one of my first tasks is to drum up some new recruits. I was hoping there might be a few brave souls on the mailinglist who are willing to help resolve disputes with us. There's nothing that you need to do to apply for membership (indeed, we don't even have a list of cabalists) and there is no vetting procedure. We're also nor process wonks; each mediator has his or her own style, and that's fine. Nearly anyone can accept a case and just start doing it.
Mediation, especially informal mediation, isn't always easy. It can. however, be very rewarding when you help resolve a content dispute that had been plaguing an article for months (or even years). What I would like to do eventually is have multiple mediators working on a case (Medcab actually started out as a sort of swarm that traveled around helping where needed). However, in order to do that, we need to have enough mediators to go around. We need a few good men (or women, or other) to help us out. Thanks, The Wordsmith _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
