Six editors can not agree on which version of the
Bosnian Genocide article to use. One version places more emphasis on the ICJ February judgement and that the name is also an alternative for
Srebrenica massacre, while the other puts more emphasis on the broader meaning of the Bosnian Genocide and less emphasis on the ICJ February judgement.
The alternative versions as of 21/23 November 2007 are:
An outstanding RFC has been in place since
16:25, 24 October 2007 but the number of respondents has not been large enough for a consensus to be reached.
23:11, 25 November 2007 by
user:Ancient Land of Bosoni with the comment in the edit history, made by him for the revert edit immediately before this one, that says "See discussion, once again this is the version agreed to by a majority in the mediation case. This article is NOT about the Bosnian genocide case, but the Bosnian genocide as a phenomena/term/opinio."
Apart from the lead section where (1) and (3) vary considerably, they contain similar sections but in a very different order. Version (2) does not contain a section on the
Bosnian Genocide Case because it is argued one is not needed because there is already an article on the topic,
[1][2] but the emphasis of the lead sections in (2) and (3) are similar with less emphasis on the ICJ February judgement than version (1).
Hmm...I believe the article sounds better with less emphasis on the ICJ ruling...but I need some people to take a look. If you have any votes, write Less for less emphasis on the ICJ ruling, or More for more emphasis. Please write in the "Discussion" section below. Thanks! JonathanT•

For this, however, I am letting users that are not involved state their opinion (not a vote anymore) so this can be unbiased. That is why I have posted links on my user/user talk pages, so uninvolved users can say what they think. Thank you. JonathanT•

Jonathan, could I suggest that you concentrate your efforts towards mediating the dispute between the parties, instead of holding a straw poll for uninvolved editors.

This discussion is for users who are not involved. If you are involved and post a comment, it will be ignored, unless it will have major weight on the discussion, as this may cause bias in the result of community views. Thank you. JonathanT•

Was there any 'outcome' of the mediation? Any suggestions? If not, is it possible to take it for a second round somewhere else or try some other type of conflict resolution? Otherwise, I'm afraid the article
Bosnian Genocide will deteriorate to an edit war.
