At least starting June I see no consensus having developed to mention Ayers at all That was the period of endless polling and article protection followed by a stable period after that with less frequent attempts to introduce it It is hard to draw conclusions from February through May given the tendentiousness at the time and all the page protections and sockpuppets Before February the issue wasn t around The proposal sounds interesting to find a neutral third party to resolve this issue once and for all but I have a couple concerns and issues with that First I am not sure there is a dispute to resolve The matter has been resolved and the decision is to not include Bill Ayers material to the article That a small vocal group repeatedly brings this up does not make it a real dispute If they continue to oppose a uniform consensus then dispute resolution becomes forum shopping Second what process is there for article arbitration I see none listed at WP DISPUTE Maybe I m missing something but offhand I am not aware of arbitration being an option here
