Closed as apparently abandoned by the filing editor. The filing editor has been asked to state what they want to change in the article, and has not made such a statement, a week after being asked for it, and more than 48 hours after being asked for it a second time. The filing editor has wasted their time and that of the moderator. Either resume discussion on the article talk page, or don't resume discussion on the article talk page. The suggestion was made at WP:ANI that a Request for Comments might be in order, but if neither editor will even state what changes they want to make, they are not likely to contribute usefully to an RFC either. If edit-warring resumes, an admin should impose a more severe remedy than the previous one-week partial block. Discuss on the article talk page, or leave the article alone.

Have you discussed this on a talk page?
Yes, I have discussed this issue on a talk page already.
Involve other neutral editors with familiarity of music certifications and sales to outline whether or not certifications equate to sales. If not, outline if total certified units (which in and of themselves are not a matter of dispute but rather a fact) can be simply be reported as certified units as opposed to sales in articles (e.g., Brown has certified ___ million units worldwide, as opposed to saying Brown has sold ___ million units worldwide based on his certifications).

Sales data dispute on Chris Brown article
Please keep discussion to a minimum before being opened by a volunteer. Continue on article talk page if necessary.
Various editors have said that a Request for Comments may be the best way to resolve this dispute. Preliminary discussion may determine whether an RFC will be used. Please read DRN Rule A. Do the editors agree to moderated discussion subject to these rules? The purpose of dispute resolution is to improve the encyclopedia. Will each editor please state, concisely, what they want to change in the encyclopedia, or what they want to leave the same that another editor wants to change?

Statement 0.5 by volunteer (Chris Brown)
Three days ago, I asked two questions, but the questions have not been answered. I will revise and restate the first question. Are the editors interested in moderated discussion subject to DRN Rule D? Chris Brown is a living person, and biographies of living persons are a contentious topic. If you agree to moderated discussion, you are agreeing that the procedures for contentious topics apply to any conduct issues. Second, please specify what in the article you want to change, or what you want to leave the same that another editor wants to change. It is not necessary and is not helpful to wait until your edit-warring blocks expire. If you want moderated discussion, please answer. If you want this dispute resolved by an RFC, you can request moderated discussion, and the moderator will assist in writing the RFC.
