Parties' agreement to mediation[edit]

  1. Agree. A.j.roberts (talk) 07:46, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Disagree. This is highly premature. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:19, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Disagree. Maybe opening an WP:RFC would be solution so that new consensus can be held for not using very old sources or not including genetic studies in caste articles. Capitals00 (talk) 13:14, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
