DRN Close Template
User:Nihlus - You put a template on the talk page of the filer of the Alex Jones case saying that you had closed the dispute. What template did you use? It seems like a good idea sometimes (including in this case where the filing party is tendentious). Robert McClenon (talk) 00:37, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: I keep all my fancy tools and whatnot at User:Nihlus/drn. This example was {{DRN-closednote}}. Nihlus 23:06, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Environmental Racism Close
It was a good-faith filing by an editor who apparently expected something from the dispute resolution process that can't be provided, so that I thought that a longer closure explaining how we (DRN volunteers) see the situation was in order. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:33, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
Request to Move Issue
I recently made a request for move of a title page Edge (wrestler) to Adam Copeland. I placed multiple sources to defend my stand on the subject and was then told the sources I placed proved nothing when in fact they proved exactly what the Request for move is supposed to prove that Adam Copeland is being mentioned in the media under his real name more then the Edge character and Im bringing the situation here because of the opinions of other aren't allowing the sources to be recognized as definitive sources. I feel like they are just being dismissed without being taken into consideration as I feel they should be. It seems like two editors who oppose the change are making mentions of how their mom knows the edge character over Adam Copeland as a actor and trying to compare the credibility of Adam Copeland's acting stating he isn't a big enough actor to be recognized as his Edge character regardless of finding all the sources that show his recognition in the media as Adam Copeland over a the name of a fictional character Edge. WP:COMMONNAME has also been mentioned because they feel The Edge fictional character is more relevant then the Adam Copeland name and I respect that but I feel like my sources aren't even being taken seriously as I was told Listing credible sources don't prove anything as if they are being shoved off and not even considered.

- The place for this discussion is in the article talk page Talk: Edge (wrestler), and the Move Request is currently open. If you are asking a general question about move discussions, you can ask at the Teahouse. Robert McClenon (talk) 09:50, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
Cold War Closes
I closed two filings of disputes about the Cold War and would appreciate comments from other volunteers about the closures (not from editors about the merits). Filing two cases on closely related subjects within 48 hours seems tendentious and not likely to help, and a possible sign that, if the content does need to be mediated, it needs a more experienced mediator than we have here. Also, both of the cases, and especially the two viewed in conjunction, looked like one editor editing against consensus. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:04, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
Need for Volunteer Input
I am asking for other DRN volunteers to comment on four cases that are currently in non-closed statuses. I am really a little puzzled as to what to do about any of them. None of them appear to be a content dispute.
On the Mexicans dispute, it appears, as noted, that the issue has to do with some sort of original research, in particular what I see is that an editor may be doing some sort of mathematical treatment of data that amounts to synthesis. It probably should be closed, but what advice should be given to the filer? Robert McClenon (talk) 03:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
On the British Empire and Afghanistan dispute, it now appears that the question has nothing to do with Afghanistan, because the question appears to be which of two maps to use, but neither of them includes Afghanistan as part of the British Empire? Should I close it as resolved, or is that too hasty? Robert McClenon (talk) 03:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
On the belly dance issue, I see that the filing party is passionate about the subject matter and the dispute, but I don't know what the dispute is. The filing party does appear to be saying that another editor is deleting sourced material, but I am not sure that there is a content dispute. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
On the dispute about a Spanish political party, I don't understand the original poster's statement. Unfortunately, I find it incomprehensible. Is there a language problem? I don't want to close it without being sure that there isn't a content dispute that we can try to resolve, but the discussion appears to be name-calling. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
Can someone advise? Robert McClenon (talk) 03:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
