CSD I8

Hello, I requested a clarification of I8 a while ago, and based on the ensuing discussion, I recommended a rephrase, and emended the CSD. The text stood for nine days without any problem, so I began to utilise it today to speedy image description pages of Commons media not on WP created solely for populating categories. The primary user who had been creating the IDPs then came to CSD, declared that I had acted without any discussion, and reverted the CSD (while also removing all the speedies). I reverted him, but Amarkov reverted me saying that there was no consensus. I believe he might have been mislead by the other user's statements on Talk, and I tried to clarify with him, but he seems to not be onwiki at the moment. I was hoping you could take a look and tell me what you think. Tewfik^Talk 18:30, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gene Nichol

Gene Nichol is not sufficiently noteworthy to have any material devoted to his name. I have posted true materials with citations and had the administration of the College of William & Mary vandalize the additions on a repeated basis. Do you have a double standard?

- Nichol attended Oklahoma State University, where he played second-string quarterback on its football team, and received his law degree in 1976 from the University of Texas, graduating Order of the Coif. He was the dean of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law from 1999 to 2005 dean of the University of Colorado Law School from 1988-1995, after which the ABA threatened to remove the school's ABA accredidation.[1] Both the University of Colorado and the University of North Carolina Law Schools suffered a major drop in their US News and World Report ratings while Nichol served as dean and neither have recovered to where they were when he arrived {http://prelawhandbook.com/law_school_rankings__1987_1999/edit + Nichol attended Oklahoma State University, where he played second-string quarterback on its football team, and received his law degree in 1976 from the University of Texas, graduating Order of the Coif. He was the dean of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law from 1999 to 2005 as well as dean of the University of Colorado Law School from 1988-1995. - (http://prelawhandbook.com/law_school_rankings__2000_present)

You threaten me, but do nothing to user Cka3n who deliberately removed substantiated facts from Gene Nichol's bio. Many of the alumni of the College of William & Mary think that Gene Nichol's measurable metrics of performance are abysmal. We think that he is not worthy of a page on Wikipedia.

The site has been repeated vandalized and politically spun by anonymous changes traceable to the administration of the College of William & Mary, biased and directed by Nichol. No one has sought to put a stop of this propoganda campaign by Professor Holmes and Nichol.. See entry on February 27, 2007 mad on behalf of Professor Holmes in the history log pasted below.

The facts are that both the University of Colorado and the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill law school were so poorly managed by Nichol that due to lack of his ability to work with the state lagestures for funding, failure to be an effective fund raiser and failure to properly hire credible faculty and administer (all core responsibilities of a dean of a law school) both schoos underwent major drops in rankings by US News and World Report, documented by citations. Worse yet, Nichol left The University of Colorado of Law School in such bad financial and administrative condition, that the ABA threatened to pull it's ABA Accredidation.

Wikipedia should either unlock that Gene Nichol Page for editing and permit documentable facts to be added or Wikipedia should remove Gene Nichol's page and the Nichol Leadership comments in the William & Mary Page. You do not remove factual additions on other college presidents pages, even if negative. People are responsible for their performance, as is Nichol.

Since it looks like you might finally be willing to discuss your edits, there is an ANI section opened about this. IrishGuy ^talk 20:54, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So what have you done exept respond with threats and biased tactics? Where is the balanced investigation and fair treatment? You permit others to vandalize the William & Mary site and the Gene Nichol repeatedly, without consequence.

Dear Irish Guy,

I recommend that you review your own comments for bias. You should not have a double standard. In other words do not hold your self to no standard and then violate the principles of free speach and undo edits just because you do not agree with actual facts. That is engaging in replacement of facts with biased opinion and your comments demonstrate that your are quick to make judgments without sufficient facts. You know what is said about opinions..... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Too late gn (talk • contribs) 20:59, 29 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

The American laws of free speech have no bearing at all on Wikipedia. That being said, you have no leg to stand on about violating free speech when you are the one who continues to blank talk pages, blank article sections, blank your own talk page, etc. IrishGuy ^talk 21:05, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that you might be short of more than just legs!— Preceding unsigned comment added by Too late gn (talk • contribs)

Personal attacks are not the route to take here. IrishGuy ^talk 21:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend that you take a dose of your own medicine!!!!! It is merely your opinion that that is a personal attack, but it is okay to make a personal attack on me?

I'm sorry...

I apologize for my attack on those people on Talk:Earth. I'm sure my page following that made me seem alot like a hypocrite. Please forgive me, I'm not usually like that. I was just angry. Once more, I apologize. I caused some rather unnecessary confrontation. -Working for Him 21:06, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

People lose their cool from time to time. It happens. I just ask that you please don't make a habit of calling other editors "assholes". :) IrishGuy ^talk 21:09, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Too late gn

So where is your balance and response? So quick to threaten and attack me but you do not even have the professionalism to respond? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Too late gn (talk • contribs)

I never "attacked" you, nor did I "threaten" you. I warned you about violating policy. Others have to...and you always blank it from your talk page. IrishGuy ^talk 21:12, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So What? Have you investigated anything I sent? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Too late gn (talk • contribs)

Your personal opinion that someone isn't deserving of a Wikipedia page is entirely irrelevant. It doesn't give you the right to blank sections and talk pages. Stop. IrishGuy ^talk 21:14, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your personal opinion is just that. You do not have the right to remove cited facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Too late gn (talk • contribs)

I didn't remove anything. I reverted your blanking of articles. IrishGuy ^talk 21:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And you do nothing to investigate the repeated vandalism of others. Why do you have the right to revert any more than any one else. How profound! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Too late gn (talk • contribs)

I have the right to revert vandalism as any other editor does...and blanking articles is vandalism. IrishGuy ^talk 21:20, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You are undeserving of the position of editor. You have engaged in opinion most frequently in these discussions. So it is permissable for you to engage in editing with your "opinion" but you may continue to deny my facts and revert my edits? Is there no standard for editors?
