It is not proven the aliases were his. One of the aliases
posted on Wikipedia that he is not the 'troll', and the 'troll'
has always denied he had these sockpuppets.

Not one user. A mediating committee has been created, on the
initiative of this user. More people are part of this committee,
including myself.

This user might have identified too much with one party, but on
the other hand the other party did not really co-operate in the
mediation.

> It resulted in the discussion being moved to another wikipedia

Yes, the discussion turned into a chaos, and the person who
initiated the mediating committee created a space on another
wikipedia, where the mediating could take place without too much
interference of other users.

> For your information I am NOT involved in this quarrel.

But you did take a standpoint in the vote about a ban for the
'troll'.


(I tried only to make corrections, and to omit my personal
opinion.)
