Working on recreating “Race and crime”.

I’m posting this comment on the discussion pages of several users who were involved in editing the article Race and crime before it was merged into Anthropological criminology, to let all of you know that I’m working on recreating the Race and crime article. My current draft for it can be found here. I would appreciate help from any of you with two things related to this:

1: RegentsPark, the admin who protected the redirect from Race and crime to Anthropological criminology, has suggested that the statistical information in this article should be better-integrated into the portion of it that discusses how these statistics can be interpreted. I would appreciate help with improving this aspect of the article, or any other aspects of it that you think could be improved.

2: RegentsPark has let me know here that he won’t be willing to unprotect the article himself, no matter how much it’s improved, so if I would like it to be unprotected I should propose this at WP:RFPP. I’ve proposed there that it be unprotected, but the admin who responded (User:Camaron) stated that without RegentsPark’s approval, I would need to first obtain a consensus that the article should be recreated. If you think the article does not require any additional improvements, and is good enough to be recreated in its current state, I would appreciate you making your opinion about this known on the draft’s discussion page, so that we can begin to create a consensus for this.

Thanks in advance. --Captain Occam (talk) 23:41, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Your real life connection to people you are commenting about

Do you think you should make your real life connection to Captain Occam clear when commenting about him? Hipocrite (talk) 14:53, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

I think it's excessive to mention it in every comment, but I don't try to keep it a secret and will answer honestly if asked. -Ferahgo the Assassin (talk) 21:53, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

It's one thing that some editors have the (IMHO) honesty to register and contribute as themselves in real life, and such information is available. It's another when personal detail, whether otherwise accessible or not, is used to smear editors with derisive speculations. As one who has been called a "fascist Eurotrash faggot" owing directly to WP's violation of my privacy, I sympathize, but until WP demonstrates it cares more about privacy and respect for individuals than WP and the opportunity for drama-mongering, the situation will not change. IMHO, as long as dealing with such issues is left in the hands of individuals not affiliated with the WMF, WP cares not at all unless it is under direct legal threat.
