Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing. — Jimbo Wales [1]

It's there now. Thanks. I just thought that removing all his personal attacks was the only way left to go. If enough people do it, he might realise that not making them in the first place is less hassle. Well, he might. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 17:02, 23 May 2005 (UTC) I was going to do it, but it was hard trying to write the report. Plus, I noticed that IP User:129.7.35.205 (Contribs:[2]) were making the same reverts that user ElKabong was doing. Could this be an attempt to circumvent the block? If so, does the block get extended? Zscout370 (Sound Off) 17:19, 23 May 2005 (UTC) It's ElKabong's IP address and it seems to belong to the University of Houston. SlimVirgin (talk) 17:32, May 23, 2005 (UTC) I think it's clear at this point that ElKabong/KaintheScion's behavior is not going to change. He continues to make personal attacks (look at his contribution history - over half his edit summaries alone have attacks or profanities in them). In addition, he breaks the 3RR on a regular basis despite repeat warnings and blocks. Since other steps in attempting to resolve these issues, including a RFC filed by me, have failed, I intend to take this case to Arbcom if he doesn't cut it out immediately. I've given him a warning to this effect on his Talk page. Would you be willing to participate if this nonsense continues? Firebug 17:25, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Count me in. He has made many personal attacks against my moral character, and I had enough of it. Anything to make him/he/whatever disappear sounds good to me. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 17:28, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Me too. SlimVirgin (talk) 17:32, May 23, 2005 (UTC) I don't think the folks at the University of Houston's College of Business would be particularly pleased that their internet service is being used to direct insults and profanities, clearly not an educational purpose. El_C 10:34, 24 May 2005 (UTC) Count me in as well. Jayjg (talk) 16:17, 24 May 2005 (UTC) 3RR Cheers, I was aware, and wasn't going to (personally) press the matter. I did, however, discuss it on IRC. I am not stupid enough to be drawn into Lulu's games. Smoddy (Rabbit and pork) 20:27, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Email Just wondering if you got my email (I don't trust Wikipedia's email system). Guettarda 22:15, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Oops, sorry - I should check the acct linked to my Wikipedia mail first :) Guettarda 22:18, 23 May 2005 (UTC) Pan Am Flight 103 I think what you removed should be included, because we need to know that the people in Lockerbie showed the best as they helped the grieving relatives. SNIyer12 Here's an article to see about the response of Lockerbie: BBC-Reporter's Reflections We can discuss this in another day or two. SNIyer12 Fine, I agree with it. SNIyer12 Islamophobia Please unprotect Islamophobia page or return it to Zora's last version which was the last agreed by all version. User Yuber came along and decided to try to force his POV so I perhaps incorrectly decided to revert to my own version which existed before Zora's version. There is a consensus for Zora's version . So please unprotect the page or lock in Zora's version.--Fredwall 03:06, 24 May 2005 (UTC) Neofascism_and_religion I am proposing a redirect from several endlessly contentious pages to a new page: Neofascism_and_religion. The three pages directly affected are Islamofascism, Islamic fascism, and Christian fascism. Any help you can give would be appreciated. :-) I am also posting this to several other folks. --Cberlet 17:14, 24 May 2005 (UTC) Lulu Hi. As you were sort of involved on the periphary of our dispute the other day, could you have a look at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 2 and give your opinion? Thanks, Smoddy (Rabbit and pork) 17:39, 24 May 2005 (UTC) Vote on policy positions at Government of Australia I note that Skyring has said that he doesn't intend submitting a proposal for the position this article should adopt on the matters in dispute between him and other uses. I think we can all draw the appropriate conclusions from this. At the expiry of the 24-hour period I gave Skyring yesterday to submit a proposal (10.10am AEST), I will announce a vote at Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board and at Wikipedia:Village pump. Since Skyring has wimped the chance to have his views voted on, the vote will be a straight yes/no on my policy position, which appears below. Amendments or alternative suggestions are of course welcome. I have an open mind on how long the voting period should be and how many votes should be seen as an acceptable participation. I will be posting this notice to the Talk pages of various Users who have participated in this debate. My proposed policy position is this: That in Government of Australia, and in all other articles dealing with Australia's system of government, it should be stated that: 1. Australia is a constitutional monarchy and a federal parliamentary democracy 2. Australia's head of state is Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Australia 3. Under the Constitution, almost all of the Queen's functions are delegated to and exercised by the Governor-General, as the Queen's representative. That any edit which states that (a) Australia is a republic, (b) the Governor-General is Australia's head of state, or (c) Australia has more than one head of state, will be reverted, and that such reversions should not be subject to the three-reversions rule. Edits which say that named and relevant persons (eg politicians, constitutional lawyers, judges) disagree with the above position, and which quote those persons at reasonable length, are acceptable, provided proper citation is provided and the three factual statements are not removed.

Sorry Sumergocognito 06:14, 25 May 2005 (UTC) Guttlekraw Sorry, I could not figure out your email link. I created another account for the purpose of contacting you, and will not use it to edit otherwise untill you block issue has been resolved. I do not understand which part of the 3RR rule I violated, since I thought that I had edited that page only three times. If I am in violation of it, appologies. It was born of frustration with Veriditas, who will not explain on the talk page the reasons for his reversion of my edits. I cannot find any justification for the claim that 'R2D2 has masculine programming' in the Star Wars cannon. Perhaps you can help me to understand this one? Yours, Guttlekraw2 06:30, 25 May 2005 (UTC) If you go to the "e-mail this user" link in the toolbox to the left of my user page, you can send me an e-mail. SlimVirgin (talk) 06:36, May 25, 2005 (UTC) Sorry - I'm a klutz, I can't get that to work. Can we discuss it here? Thank you, Gutlekraw2 07:12, 25 May 2005 (UTC) What do you mean, you can't get it to work? What happens when you click on it? SlimVirgin (talk) 07:14, May 25, 2005 (UTC) I just tested the e-mail link. It's working. Are you looking in the right place? Look at the box on the left called toolbox, fourth link down. Or you can leave your e-mail address here for me. SlimVirgin (talk) 07:19, May 25, 2005 (UTC) Thank you. I guess it's academic then. Could you help me out on the Veriditas issue? I'm trying to understand him, but I can't get a straight answer on anything. On the R2 issue - I'd be happy to conceed if there was any evidence at all to substantiate his opinion. Any ideas?

At that point, I decided that the article content belonged at rebetika, and decided to move. Usually, I use the "Move" button at the top. I couldn't do that here without breaking the redirect first, which I did. I can't remember for sure, but I'm guessing that I just selected everything I was already editing straight from the preview box and dumped it onto the blank rebetika edit box that was open in front of me. Bad move. I think that's what erased the edit history. I'll remember to always use the "Move" button in future, which as I said, I usually do. Rebetiko Was there really a need to protect the article? I couldn't see any sign (or imminent threat) of edit warring. As you probably saw on the Talk page, there are lots of things that need to be added to and corrected on the page, and it's going to be a pain if they can't be started on. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:22, 25 May 2005 (UTC) Thanks. I'd thought that you'd thought that there was going to be a war over the name. I hope that there isn't; the music is universally called "rebetika" rather than the singular "rebetiko" (it's a bit like listing the blues uunder "blue"). Well, we'll see what happens. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 13:08, 25 May 2005 (UTC) Screw you, LIAR Fine. I've included both versions of the page on KaintheScion into one, since you power-mad Admin freaks continue to lie.
