I am certainly willing to give it a try; we'll see if it works.  I have read the talk page archive, the history of the article, and some of the linked articles to understand the dispute.  I want to make it clear that I do not intend to be a mediator or an arbitrator.  What I hope to do is simply be an editor whose motives people trust, so that if I make an edit you don't like, we can discuss the pros and cons without questioning intent.   06:48, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
