Arbitration strives to be neutral.  Therefore, users on either side of the dispute should not submit the disagreement to the Arbitration page.  Hopefully, only neutral parties will submit the issue.  Thereafter, each party can submit their "Description of Position."  If a biased "description of issue" is presented, the disagreement will be moved to the "Biased Issues" section.  When the description is fixed, it will be moved to "Unresolved Issues."  If edit wars continue on this page, it will be protected as neccessary.
