Issues to be mediated
- Primary issues
- The entire crowd size section. There is a certain estimate of 87,000 by CBS News and AirPhotosLive.com which claims to be a scientific estimate of the crowd and thus the most authoritative. Four of the editors listed seem to agree, and five do not. The question is whether a long paragraph should be devoted to this estimate, detailing the methods and whatnot, which seems to give the estimate undue weight. Recently I tried to overhaul the whole crowd size section and replace it with a simple table of estimates with references provided. Two editors disagreed and I was banned for accused edit warring. The dispute reached a relative calm last week but has been reignited. It's a month in and we're still fighting over it, which is quite ridiculous. BS24 (talk) 20:04, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
