Thanks for helping with the deletion of my post earlier. However, the issue does not seem to be resolving itself. I posted a clear evaluation of the reasoning behind the changing the section, and after waiting five days with no response I changed the criticism section. The edit that is involved is simply citing a source, and clarifying a statement (or so I feel).
To clarify: I very much feel that the two individuals involved want to give a certain perception of the group on campus. Specifically, that the group is small. A qoute from the president of the university (to whom the campaign is directed- not exactly a nuetral observer) is not cited as the source of the qoute, but rather simply put that "the group is [considered small]". Am I wrong to think that a source should be refrenced to its actually author?
The other change involves refrenceing what the "union process" means. Its really vague why the president of the univerisity feels she has to be nuetral on "the union process" when there is no refrence to who or what that process is in refrence to. Not somthing i feel strongly about, but i think we should worry about the clarity of the article.
One other change was that both student gov and faculty senate voted on a resolution to a living wage". I cited my source in the discussion (the campus newspaper), its wholly accurate, and it only adds a few words- and certainly is relevant in terms of how the student body felt and perceived the issue.
I can't imagine how these details could be that serious for these two individuals, and maybe I'm wrong about them. Nontheless, i feel at this point in time (considering they changed it without discussion and addressing the issue) we may need to be refrenced to arbitration. Can you add to the discussion what you think, as a nuetral observer? (review the previous descussion for a few posts, and the changes that were made, perhaps). I would greatly appreciate it if it helps us reach a resolution.
Will, I was trying to reword something in the paragraph, and I lost some words where I placed black. I am sorry for the error. I didn't realize about the reasons for edit box was required, and I don't know where it is. KansasCity 03:26, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm sorry for butting in but you just deleted just about every single thing I edited. Please try to be more collaborative and friendly. Usenet isn't reliable for outside information but that's not what I linked to Usenet for at all. All of the things I described with Simpson and Epperson are about events that happened on Usenet itself with Sebesta. All three of them post there all the time. Simpson and Epperson are always criticizing Sebesta, and Sebesta always uses Usenet to do his political campaigning. He is rather (in)famous for all the stuff he does on Usenet. You can even email Sebesta, Epperson, or Simpson and they'll tell ya the same stuff.
Epperson and Simpson post on soc.history.war.us-civil-war This is a moderater-controlled Usenet group (Epperson is one of the moderaters) so you can verify who their postings are. They block impersonaters to the non-moderated ones, and all the posts I gave match the UNIQUE logins and isp's used by Simpson and Epperson on their moderated group.

I just mentioned the articles on the Lolicon talk page in case someone was interested. I only thought about putting them in seriously when I got curious as to policy on admins editing locked pages. I've never been there before and the policy doesn't specifically say you can't. I just wanted to get a buzz on what others thought. --DanielCD 02:35, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
Please tell that to User: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Infinity0
Since he was constantly trying to vandalize the article, I did not delete anything anybody else had written, all I did was prevent him from deleting relevant materials that had not been discussed.
I think this is more than I really want to deal with, but will continue as I have if it seems constructive. I'd appreciate a bit of coaching when you have time, however. Also, how should the posting of long non-English missives be handled?--Walter Siegmund (talk) 22:33, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
Re: Talk:Kevin B. MacDonald#Paleoconservatism: Jacrosse seems to be adopting a pattern I've seen before: if people give reasoned argument on the talk page against his edits, but don't jump in and change the article, he doesn't provide counter-argument. As far as I've been able to tell, the only way to engage him in discussion is to edit-war, because he sure won't walk away from a disagreement while a version other than his is in the article. I find this really annoying, myself: I'd rather settle things by discussion. In this particular case, I think he's factually wrong, but I also don't think the issue is terribly important. What do you think about this (either in specific of in general)? - Jmabel | Talk 06:18, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
There is a note on the Virago talk page that you moved the contents to: Talk:Virago/Classical anthropology, but, of course, nothing appears there.

Alex Padilla is a huge mess; it's driving me crazy. If you read the edit history from the start, it's clear that a pro-AP editor and an anti-AP editor are battling mightily over how to characterize him: Satan, or God. Since they seem to delight in mass deletions, my solution has been to just make sure everything stays, good and bad, so long as it's reasonable and/or properly sourced.

Will, I am registerd user "Oklahoma" I anonymously edited the Cosmotheism page and was banned by Mel Etitis for "Vandalism". If you look at the history you will see that what I did was not vandalism. Since then I have registerd as user "Oklahoma". The issue under dispute is whether Mordecay Nesiyahu "created the term" Cosmotheism. I gave evidence on the discussion page that he in fact did not, but Mel did not respond, he just changed it back and locked the page. Is this how Wikipedia is supposed to work? I think that it gives Wikipedia a "black eye" when someone puts up information that is demonstrably false. Could you tell me why Mel Etitis would do this? Some help in restoring truth to the Cosmotheism Disambiguation page would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, registerd user "Oklahoma"
Will, Mel has banned me because he thinks I am "Paul Vogel". I am not Paul Vogel. I would think he could or you could verify this. He has banned me for simply proving him wrong about who "created the term" Cosmotheism. Now he's edited the page to read "prominent user of the term". I would submit that that is nonsense. Now, I'm not suggesting that Pierce be listed as "prominent user of the term", but he is more "prominently" connected to the term than Nesiyahu. What is Mel Etitis' motivation? Let me repeat, I am not Paul Vogel, I am the guy you had discussions with about Cosmotheism links on the white supremacy page. I am only interested in upholding truth and accuracy. I should not be banned. If you can't, or won't, help me with this then please tell me who I should talk to.
Thank you, Oklahoma
Categories are the connections by which we browse the information. George W. Bush, which you admins maintain, is in the "Worst Actor Razzie" and you have the gaul to tell me that he is directly connected to that? Categories are infomraiton. A lot people are not "directly connected" to their almaa maters any more, but we maintain that information. I go and maintain all your dip-shit musical band categories that have become orphens in Special:Uncategorizedcategories just to keep the list down to size and you applaud me for that junk, and then this idiot who trying to maintain the "sacred space" of a dead woman who "got a little bit of publicity" in March 2005 and you give him the green light to once again destroy that infomation that I have just finishd building up. I, sir, finished all of the HARD articles in Wikipedia:External_peer_review/Nature_December_2005/Errors that everyone else gave up on when Xmas rolled around and never got back to just so that I could tell Jimbo that the damnned list was finished.
Are you a citizen of the U.S.? Believe it or not, Acts of the Congress of the United States MATTER. They are Important. Some important information is not-so-obviously "directly connected" as who-the-hell recorded a song on what C.D., and if wether they are deth metal or grunge, buddy. Do you conceed the point or do we take in up the line?
AND STOP THAT STUPID PERSON FROM RIPPING THEM OUT SO FAST! IT IS EASY TO DESTROY WHAT IS HARD TO BUILD UP. -- Pinktulip 22:41, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Look buddy: We some grunge band goes into the studio and cut a track for their next CD, that is about it. Real simple. The way that laws get passed in the United States is a little bit more complicated than that. The relationships are not so trivial. That is why it is good to be inclusive on the Important categories. The grunge bands can go ahead and be just as exclusive in their categories as they want to be, for all I care. On the Important stuff, I do not conceed the point. -- Pinktulip 22:49, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Buddy: Terri Schiavo is like Abraham Lincoln. She belongs to the Ages. Laws were passed with her name on them at the national level. Once that happens, there is no turning back. For something of such Importance, worrying about hurting the feelings of dead woman is just not good enough of an excuse to remain Ignorant about What Happened. -- Pinktulip 22:54, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
You can see that User:Marskell is to destroy/revert first and then smugly defend the status quo. If he wants to discuss each one in his destructive campaign, one at time, one per day, that would be great. But he has rather a sense or urgency about hiim, does he not? -- Pinktulip 23:10, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Let me get this straight: While he has been given the green light to quickly destroy the infomation, which he is doing without any discussion, you are going to force a discussion on me about a long list of past edits, one at time, until, I expect, Marskell current destructive impulses are sated. First edit you insist on disucssing:
You gave him the green light, no disucssion. You leave me waiting here, stuck, while the destruction process continues. What kind of mediator are you? Are you there? Why did you take this case if you only have time to give him the green light and me the red light? Where are you? -- Pinktulip 00:04, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Hope this isn't a bad place to ask, but I'm getting sick of the reverting to article Nicolaus Copernicus. The revert concerns, predictably, his nationality. Due to some evidence of his German ethnicity, and the ambiguous political situation of Prussia during Copernicus' lifetime, some users wish to delete the atribution "Polish", or place "Prussian" or "German" or "German-Polish" in its stead. The Polish users are, perhaps understandably, taking a hard-line. A message on the Polish wikipedians notice board reads "We have a troll denying he was Polish. Usuall stuff, but some monitoring is needed before this vandal gives up and goes away" (See: Wikipedia_talk:Polish_Wikipedians'_notice_board#Nicolaus_Copernicus), but there is more than one person opposed to the Polish line, and none of them can accurately be described as "trolls". I myself tried to negotiate a way to end it, but it didn't work. This is why I appeal to someone wish some experience and offical clout, so that the tiresome revert wars can come to an end. Perhaps a mediator will help both sides compromise, and perhaps also help establish some article-specific precendent that prevents the issue coming up again.

Hey bub. Before warning people and threatening me with blocking like you so rudely did [1] why don't you keep your own house clean first?

It looks to me as if either you or the template got something garbled in your listing on Wikipedia:Requested moves. The move you've proposed is: The Nation (U.S. periodical) → The Nation (U.S. periodical). I'm going to be bold and change the first article to The Nation. I'll also add a link to the prior discussions, which ended up on the talk page of the dab page. JamesMLane t c 05:32, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
Please do not keep undoing other people's edits without discussing them first. This is considered impolite and unproductive. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. - Crawfishboil

I have been deleting their not-yet-notable journal from the external links section. They have escalated to deleting the other (very notable) haiku journals plus other external links when they re-add their link (see this diff). This was the second time they have re-added their link AFTER I had left a warning message on the user page for their IP yesterday. I think that it's time to escalate to a 24 hr. block.

On my talk page you asked what you did to deserve this.

I added to the discussion section of the criticism part of a University of Miami [[9]] article. Unofortunatly, someone deleted my discussion section piece- twice, and did not respond as to why nor adress my points. Instead, the individual replaced my points with their own. I would very much like help mediating a resolution in terms of the grievances addressed (found in the history section of the discussion-mostly clarification of the article's sentences and refrenceing an author of a qoute). I'm not completely sure what the problem is, to tell the truth. However, the "crticism" section's discussion is long (its not until the very bottom that my part comes up) and I think theres alot thats been running back and forth, and this may have somthing to do with how this person(s) responded.
I feel, though, that citing their source to a qoute and clarifying the articles sentences is needed, at least. I would very much appreciate some of your time for mediation, please review the history part, at the very bottom of the page, of the criticism section of the University of Miami article.

the comment that you left on my talk page... are you refering to the links that I put on conspiracy related disscusions about a conspiracy based wiki? or to links I put on articles? cause neither fit the criteria. I would hardly call any of them private web site ors a commercial site (since its contained within the wiki group). Plus since I dont know you you may want to tone down how you speak to me. dont come flying onto my page accusing me of something without telling me when I did it (using italics on the word content... I took that to imply that you somehow felt I had never added content to wikipedia.) I dont mean to be rude I just want some clarification but I do feel that you were being a bit sharp with me(obviously looking at this board I'm not alone) you may just want to make it a bit more clear what in particular someone did when you nag them about it. To be honest i felt that this was the most indirect way to centest my actions and it made me quite upset. Just tell me what when and where I did it instead of asking me to "please stop adding commercial links" because I have never ever done that ever in my life. --Matt D 22:26, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

In order to avoid a spitting contest with unregistered user rabinid, I'm asking you for help with the John Paulus entry that he has added to Wikipedia.

I hate seeing Wikipedia used in this way, and do not believe it should be what this encyclopedia is about. Would you check this particular entry and let me know what you think, and make changes if you see fit? Thanks. -Jmh123 03:43, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
First, I'm not unregistered. I have a legitimate Wiki account. As well, I'm not seeding this info throughout Wikipedia as accused. I have many other Wiki edits and a long history under a different account. I created this one strictly for this particular info because of the feelings associated with it. That said, I loathe sourcable on-topic info being removed or denied inclusion simply on the basis that it may be perceived as disparaging to a subject. In this case Jmh123 is an avowed Clay Aiken fan who has made it her mission to only "seed" wiki with what she believes is positive information on Aiken. It's her right to do so, but only if that info is NPOV, on topic, relevant and sourcable. In particular with the info removed from John Paulus], I did not revert all of her edits to the entry, only the ones that were non-sourcable, as well as summaries of content that was already supplied in the form of links to the MP3s of the actual content. These are all legitimate NPOV edits, sourcable and on topic. I would urge you to double check my work --Rabinid 09:34, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

i think you are over-reacting on the POV issue. i wrote this intro...i am a scientist who has studied Petaluma and authored 12 different documents on this city. the terms used are in fact objective in the urban planning context.

Residential charm is an adjective in city planning used to denote historical preservation, extent of mature landscaping and permanancy of residents.....do you know Petaluma at all?...i intend to rewrite and essentially revert this intro, but i shall wait and give you the courtesy of responding to this note.

A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Kaiser Permanente, and indicate whether you agree or refuse to mediate. If you are unfamiliar with mediation, please refer to Wikipedia:Mediation. There are only seven days for everyone to agree, so please check as soon as possible.
Hey Will,
Just wanted to thank you for stepping in on the Lew Rockwell article today. I'm really glad that we were able to find a concensus in contrast to the many situations that just turn into blind editing wars. I really tried to reason with Dick Clark and find some middle ground. -Roger
Do you think a solution would be to put these notes after the "notable contributors" section of the site, since this is information about them? -Roger
I think you'll agree that I've treated you and Dick Clark with nothing but respect? I actually did make the post on the article talk page, I just know that when you write on someone's talk page it comes up to them as a message so that was more of a means of letting you know I had posted. I'll be more clear about that in the future. We'll probally be working together as I see you spend a lot of time editng libertarian oriented articles, and libertarianism is one of my main interests. 07:47, 25 February 2006 (UTC)Roger
Will, just wanted to apologize about the blocked from editing bit I wrote on the Rockwell discussion section. As you can guess, it was in response to the fact that you had left the exact same message on my talk page. It frusturated me because I've been working in good faith to try to paint a fuller picture of Rockwell in the article. When I came upon the article, it was clear that it had one-sided information about him. I hope that we can work together to paint fuller pictures of the people involved with LewRockwell.com/Mises Institute, as right now it seems most of their Wikipedia articles are basically the same thing as the biographies posted about them on the Mises site itself.

Thank you for catching my OOPS. I did omit the words "scenic mountain" which gives the Mount Lowe Railway the distinction of being the only scenic mountain, electric traction railway ever built. Magi Media 13:31, 25 February 2006 (UTC)Magi Media
Thanx 4 the welcome. R u the author of Dunkirk Departure? ;)
Hello, Will. Thanks for your response, and apologies for removing my two cents from your talk page. I try not to bother people unnecessarily, and I really hate internet battles (Jacrosse is the first on Wikipedia I'm dealing with). FYI, I've reported Jacrosse to the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents page. Feel free to send me any thoughts or recommendations. Thanks --metzerly 18:47, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
Could you please explain why you think this action was an improvement: 23:41, 22 February 2006 Will Beback m (Reverted edits by Lance W. Haverkamp (talk) to last version by JesseRafe) You seem to be re-introducing all the things people were arguing about: Bashing the organization at the beginning of the article & a sales pitch at the bottom. Are you sure you meant to do that??? Thanks, --Lance W. Haverkamp 02:06, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the barnstar! It had been so long since I got one I had to solicit one from someone :) I always appreciate unsoliticed ones! ℬastique▼parℓer♥voir♑ 14:24, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
