==Mediation Cabal Case==

Hello. I am the mediator who has responded to the request for mediation by ]. I think that this situation is getting close to an edit war, but I hope that I can help settle things down and help both parties come to an agreement. First, I would like to establish my neutrality:
{{User:MiszaBot/config

|archiveheader = {{aan}}
*I come from the UK, and have never read any of Toure's published work, in novel, newspaper, or magazine form.
|maxarchivesize = 100K

|counter = 5
*Neither have I ever seen Toure on TV.
|minthreadsleft = 0

|minthreadstoarchive = 1
*From the infomation in the article, I don't even have the same taste in music.
|algo = old(30d)

|archive = Talk:Touré (journalist)/Archive %(counter)d
I hope that this helps to verify my neutrality.
}}{{User:HBC Archive Indexerbot/OptIn

|target=Talk:Touré (journalist)/Archive index
Now then, I would like to draw both of your attention to ], which is a policy on wikipedia which governs the rules about biographies of living people. If you look at the 'Presumption in favor of privacy' section on the page, the first line states,
|mask=Talk:Touré (journalist)/Archive <#>

|leading_zeros=0 |indexhere=yes}}
*''Biographies of living people must be written conservatively and with due regard to the subject's privacy.''
{{User:HBC Archive Indexerbot/OptIn

|target=/Archive index |mask=/Archive <#> |leading_zeros=0 |indexhere=yes
It also goes on to say:
}}

*''Material from primary sources should generally not be used. For example, public records may include personal details such as home value, outcomes of civil court cases, traffic citations, arrest records, and vehicles and real estate owned. Use material only from reliable third-party sources.''
__TOC__

and

*''...editors should exercise restraint and include only information relevant to their notability.''

May I ask, with this in mind, why, 84.100.38.28, you feel that adding Toure's last name is relevent or important to the article? ]]] <sup>]</sup> 14:50, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

:This case is now closed, due to inactivity. I would suggest, as I ave written above, that adding Toure's last name is a violation of ], and therefore not be put into the article. ]]] <sup>]</sup> 11:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

== Proposed move ==

{{move|Touré}}

* '''Oppose'''. Need reasons why that spelling should be used. Also, xomeone could help proposer of move by creating proper discussion section. ] 09:35, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' I'd agree with Gene Nygaard on this one. There seems little reason for the move. ]]] <sup>]</sup> 10:40, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
* '''Support if''' this is what Toure/é himself uses, presumably to indicate how his name is to be pronounced (assuming it ''is'' meant to be pronounced "Tour-ray" or the like!) &nbsp;Regards, ] 03:07, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
*'''Neutral''' The personality is referred to as "Touré" through the entire article. Title must conform with content. However, I could not verify which one is the correct form (Google and Yahoo render virtually nil results for both forms +).--]]] 00:49, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
*'''Support''', "Touré" is the form he uses on his website. ] 16:33, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
*'''Support''' ""Touré" and "Toure" are different names with different pronunciations. Omitting the accent makes as much a difference as omitting a letter. And "Touré" is the proper spelling of his given name. "Toure" is the incorrect spelling, though it occurs frequently because many people don't know how to add accents on a computer. At the time the page was written the "Touré" page seemed taken and out of respect to the larger Misplaced Pages mission, the "Touré" page was not disrupted. However, this page as currently constituted is incorect until the page is named "Touré."
