:(I'll keep this note here on my page as it relates to my performance as an admin)Ned, I reviewed them and they appeared to me to be a consistent string of vandalism of Sesame Street and Looney Tunes articles. Here's one that is very clearly erroneous if you're over 30, no edit summary, no idea where these dates come from, but I'll ]; then there is this one , which ends the AGF quest. Following that there are a whole string of ] related edits, all with no edit summary and no known basis for the edits, claiming every Tune known to WB was created or inspired by Chuck. Finally, if you follow the series you can see that he's following getting reverted with changes to related articles that say similar things. Taken together with the two above, I take them all as vandalism and I see not one valid edit (please provide the ones that you say were).

Hi Doug:
{{Ivmbox|]
Thanks for volunteering to mediate the dispute on the usage of IEC Binary Prefixes. What has happened is that two editors GregL and Fnagaton with the occasional assistance of Headbomb have acted in concert to prevent any indication of a dispute on the usage of IEC Binary Prefixes in Wikepedia. Then then further impose their will at the Binary Prefix article. It is not surprising that GregL and Fnagaton will not agree to mediation, they have everything the way they like it and together bully other editors into submission or acquiescence. Essentially together they use the 3RR rule to prevent any individual editor from raising any question about their view of the world at both the Binary Prefix article and the MOSNOM article. I suspect the next step is arbitration. The alternative is to find 4 or more editors to act in concert as does GregL, et al. How does one go about getting binding arbitration going now that u have closed the mediation case? ] (]) 16:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
Greetings!
::PS I will watch for a reply here ] (]) 16:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

:::You would go to ] and follow the instructions there (sorry, I've never filed one, so I can't really help). Can you explain what the arguments are for the IEC system? (please do so without telling me that the change goes against consensus or anything of that nature. Consensus is generally a circular argument. You either have it or you don't and arguing you have it is generally pointless. Read some of the essays on consensus for more information on that point.) I can't mediate the case (unless the other parties magically show up and agree) but I may be able to provide you advice one whether to go forward with an RFAR.--]<sup>(] <small>•</small> ])</sup> 00:48, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
