==Harassment by User:Nikosgreencookie==

After adding a tag to the article on [[Takis Fotopoulos]] to let editors know that it is based on primary sources and/or sources affiliated with the subject (such as the "Democracy & Nature" and "Inclusive Democracy" publications/websites that belong to Fotopoulos), the aforementioned user has started accusing me on my Talk page of vandalism. If you have a look at his Talk page, you will see that he is a supporter of Mr. Fotopoulos and quite militant about promoting the movement started by Mr. Fotopoulos and defending it. On the Talk page of the article on Takis Fotopoulos, I saw signs of a possible violation of WP:OWN and perhaps the supporters of Mr. Fotopoulos are moving to a violation of WP:MEAT, as they keep recruiting people to "defend" Mr. Fotopoulos from what they seem to perceive as "attackers" and "enemies". It all looks a bit like what happened with the heavy editing wars that [[Church of Scientology]] members carried out here on Wikipedia. Could you please help me out? I only want to ensure that contributors - many of whom are far more knowledgeable than me - will bring out better articles, yet I get accuse of "vandalism" because of my humble efforts. Thank you.

Why so coy?

You accuse me of having said things I have not and of holding views that I do not. Then, when confronted with your lies you blank your page. That's completely unacceptable, especially for a WMF employee, and if you persist I will certainly escalate this. Malleus Fatuorum 21:08, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I summarized your opinion in a way you didn't like, which is hardly a lie. Mike came to me with a reasonable comment that merited a reply, but you are just trolling here. This my talk page, not a forum you get to beat into submission in some drama-laden crusade to right a non-existent wrong. Move on, there is nothing to see here.

No, you lied. Malleus Fatuorum 21:17, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't care it is a simple mistake, or something else. It is not satisfactory for someone using a WMF account to egregiously misrepresent a good comment (I don't care about good faith—the comment was good), and then refuse to even say something like that they don't have time to examine the issue and they are sorry if they misinterpreted something. NPP is important, and misrepresenting good comments in an area under active WMF consideration is not good enough. Being called on a mistake is not trolling.
