Hello. The article I've been looking at contains only one reference to objections within Iran, "Indeed, our correspondent adds, a commentary on Iranian radio said there was nothing new about what Mr Ahmadinejad had said. It complained that the West had overreacted because it wanted to smear Iran's image and to convince public opinion abroad that Teheran was seeking a nuclear weapon - something Iran has always denied."
Is there more there that I'm missing? Should I be looking at a different article? Thanks. IronDuke 22:49, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Jayjg, although he is an arbitrator, is free, if he chooses, to edit as an ordinary user. He is expected, when he does edit as an ordinary user, to conform to Wikipedia policies. As a member of the arbitration committee, unless it is requested by Jimbo or other Wikipedia leaders, we do not investigate and prosecute possible violations. That said, Jayjg has sometimes, in my opinion, engaged in somewhat biased editing, as have I. Please try to work it out with him by addressing him directly about your concerns.

I don't think much of this edit [1] by you. Deleting a well known fact on the basis that there is no exact quote seems rather obtuse. Additionally I don't think the phrase "destruction of Israel" is particularly point of view, biased or inflammatory. As Q said, "Knowing humans as you do, Captain, would you want to be captured helpless by them?" [2]. Fred Bauder 13:19, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi TopRank. I'm interested in creating an article on the NYT's Tehran correspondent Nazila Fathi, who is responsible for a large number of the dubious translations of MA in recent years, including the "Holocaust myth" quote. Apparently though, others have tried to find out about this person with little luck ([3]). Do you have any interest in this effort? — JEREMY 00:41, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Hello TopRank, I am just letting you know that if you revert one more time on this article you will be in violation of the 3RR and could be blocked.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 16:20, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Hello again, I should notify you that you have just broken the 3RR and could be blocked from editing if you do not self revert.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
I'm sorry but it is clearly undoing someone else's edits, that is a revert. One of my reverts was spread out into two edits and were right after one another, thus they are considered one revert, so I have three reverts in 24 hours, so I cannot revert the article again today either.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:59, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
TopRank, you have violated 3RR. Please revert yourself before you are blocked. Thanks. Jayjg (talk) 19:58, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
I submit that both Moshe and you have made more than three changes that have undone another editors work in the last 24 hours. A third opinion has arrived that supports the page remaining as is. I have no problem with you submiting this to the arbitration committee if you recuse yourself. I would also accept the page being protected pending consensus forming. Wikipedia disputes should be solved by reaching for consensus. I think I have done that far more than you have. TopRank 20:52, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
While I find, contrary to Jayjg, the quotes both relevant and interesting, I think his link to Wikiquote is more appropriate. Fred Bauder 16:59, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future. |
Greetings! Please follow the usual dispute resolution process at Wikipedia:Resolving disputes, whether the other party is an anon or an arbitrator. I will occasionally take requests to deal with something outside an arbcom case but I'm currently too short on time to be able to. Thanks, Mindspillage (spill yours?) 04:22, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
