About this page Use this page to request the committee open an arbitration case. To be accepted, an arbitration request needs 4 net votes to "accept" (or a majority). Arbitration is a last resort. WP:DR lists the other, escalating processes that should be used before arbitration. The committee will decline premature requests. Requests may be referred to as "case requests" or "RFARs"; once opened, they become "cases". Before requesting arbitration, read the arbitration guide to case requests. Then click the button below. Complete the instructions quickly; requests incomplete for over an hour may be removed. Consider preparing the request in your userspace. To request enforcement of an existing arbitration ruling, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement. To clarify or change an existing arbitration ruling, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment.

Statement by Hayden41
Firstly. I recently added that Mr. Molyneux was a self-published author, which he is, and that information keeps getting edited out by other users for no legitimate reason.
On the same page, there is a section called "reception" where one of his books is noted to have been reviewed. Now for what reason can one of his books be the subject of a section and at the same time the mere mention that he is a self-published author is prohibited?
Secondly. I added that he was invited on the Joe Rogan experience, which he was, three times, and yet other contributors seem to keep erasing that information.
Again, there is no legitimate reason to edit out the presence of Stefan Molyneux on the Joe Rogan Experience and keep his other appearances (on RT, Press TV and Info Wars) on his page.

Statement by Robert McClenon (Stefan Molyneux)
User:Hayden41 - Before filing a Request for Arbitration concerning a content dispute, it would be a good idea to read the dispute resolution policy, and among other things look at a few points:
- 1. The difference between content disputes and conduct disputes. This is a content dispute. You haven't alleged conduct violations, and I haven't seen conduct issues.
- 2. The steps to follow for a content dispute.
- 3. The closing statement that arbitration is for conduct disputes, not content disputes.
Your dispute with the other two editors has to do with due weight and balance as to what should be in an article. Since you are in a minority, you have two main choices. You can accept that you are in a minority, or you can compose and post a Request for Comments concerning the information that you want to add to the article.
It would have been a good idea to read that before filing this request. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:56, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- The conduct of the other users is what I am complaining about. They are removing my posts without any good reason. We have discussed it on the talk section but we are not able to reach an agreement.
- They will keep erasing my edits and I will keep reposting them. We need arbitration. Hayden41 (talk) 03:03, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I am not technically savvy enough to complete the form. Hayden41 (talk) 03:03, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- User:Hayden41 - If you don't know how to notify other users that you have filed a Request for Arbitration, you don't know what is a valid request for arbitration. If you think that the removal of content because of a due weight dispute is a conduct violation, you don't know enough to file a request for arbitration. If you keep reposting the same edits are they are reverted, you are edit-warring, and that is usually dealt with by blocks. You need to read the dispute resolution policy and know what is a content dispute. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:58, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Clerks - User:Hayden41 is posting in my section. Please either move their posts or do not count them toward my word limit.
- User:Hayden41 - I am willing to assist you in formulating a neutrally worded RFC if you request my assistance at the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard. This may not be a standard mediation, but I am willing to help you avoid being blocked. I mostly disagree with you about whether the material should be included, but I want you to have the right to ask the community civilly to decide this content question.
