[edit] Dealing with problems

• Report vandalism
• Settling content disputes:

1. Use article talk to reach concensus or explain your reasons. Multiple times if necessary.
2. If appropriate or it is a matter of core policy, ask an administrator for an opinion.
3. Get a third opinion if it is only two people involved in the dispute.
4. If that doesn't work, request mediation.
5. Your last resort is arbitration.
