I don't know. :) If I did know, I would just edit the article and both
sides would cheer for me.
Usually what I would look for in a case like this would be something
which neither side views as censorship. Obviously some people will view
anything other than their most-preferred solution as censorship, but
usually moderates can find a happy enough solution somewhere.
