User talk:Lightbreather

Checkuser, please

@Callanecc: (or any other uninvolved checkuser reading this), could you please run a checkuser on IP address 69.16.147.185? Because of the person's edit[1] my original block of 1 week was extended to 2 weeks for "block evasion," but that edit was not made by me or by anyone that I know. Chillum, who was last to review my block said that he is open to another admin reviewing it.

To be clear, I am not talking about the original block, which has expired anyway. I am talking about the block extension that was placed on my account because IP user 69.16.147.185 deleted info from the GGTF ArbCom page, info that I did not delete. The only page that I have edited since my block was placed is my own talk page. Lightbreather (talk) 19:41, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Checkuser is not run "defensively", and they generally would not report information linking an IP to a named user in any case I don't think this request is going to get you anywhere. In any case, I am pretty sure the admins have said they were doing a WP:DUCK behavioral block. In those circumstances even a negative checkuser wouldn't mean anything. I am not accusing you of anything, I don't think the IP is you, but you could have been at a friends computer, or at work, or taken your laptop to starbucks, somewhere else that would not have the same CU but could still plausibly be you. CU for the most part is nothing but an IP check, plus a few bits of info from the browser (user agent, patch # etc). Its trivial to end up with a different CU, it only trips up prolific socks, because very few people have access to dozens/hundreds of machines/ips. But for a "one-time-sock" its easy to avoid. Gaijin42 (talk) 19:47, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

I've seen references to "duck" many times, but never bothered to read it before. I just did. I can see how this essay might apply to my original block, especially since I have since admitted that I did edit logged out (IP 72-something) for privacy. But I did not do the IP 69 edit. Further, IP 69 made one edit, so there's nothing to it that can be compared to any "habitual characteristics" on my part. The edit that IP made, the info he/she deleted, was related to the info I asked to have revdeled, but I didn't delete it before my block, and I wouldn't have and didn't delete it after, either. It would have been pointless, and dangerous... as it ended up being for me even though I didn't do it. Duck also says:

The duck test does not apply in non-obvious cases. Unless there is such clear and convincing evidence, editors must assume good faith from others.

If it will help an admin, I can get a copy of my receipt from the restaurant I was at on November 30 (blocked Dec. 1) when IP 69 made the edit he/she made.

For Pete's sake, I'm not asking to have the original block removed, I'm just asking to have the extension removed. IT WAS NOT ME. Lightbreather (talk) 20:15, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

As Gaijin42 said, CU will likely not tell us anything since we already have the geolocation of both IPs (perhaps your only defence is that they are different states (but that doesn't prove a lot). All I'd be able to tell with CU is whether you've edited on the 69.* IP with your account which is immaterial to the issue. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 02:02, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

OK. Let us consider a hypothetical case. How does one find out about an unexpected edit, read through it to understand what it is, from where it was made, find out some other user's location and correlate it with the new edit, calculate the distance between the two locations, work out all the intricacies / simplicities of Occam's razor, and implement a block with an edit summary containing a link to a relevant page, all withing four minutes ? How does it look if the person who did all this within four minutes is running for an election in which he/she could not hope to get the blocked user's vote ? ( The block prevents the user from voting ) Does it all look appropriate, very OK ?OrangesRyellow (talk) 03:27, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

@Salvio giuliano: @Chillum: The extension of this block seems silly to me. I disagree that this is an Occam's razor situation—we had many IPs editing the arbitration case, and it seems equally likely that this could be another person or a joe job. Lightbreather admitted the edits from the first IP were theirs; I don't think it's unreasonable to extend good faith far enough to say that this edit was not. GorillaWarfare (talk) 04:25, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

I have given this my time. I have discussed this with the blocking admin. It is clear to both of us that once discovered by a checkuser you resorted to using a proxy thinking that would fool us. We know about proxies.

I am not changing my mind and I doubt the blocking admin will either. Please stop pinging me about this matter. I invite the scrutiny of the community as always. I welcome another admin to review this, but I am done here.

These blocks are not entirely separate issues as you insist in the collapse templates above. The fact that you had just engaged in sock puppetry is a relevant fact when considering the credibility of your claims. I think the any further review should take into account the sections you collapsed as to allow focus on the current issue. Chillum 18:09, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Chillum, please note that I didn't ping you here, but that admin @GorillaWarfare: did, who seems to be open to reviewing this. Therefore, I am thinking about making one more official "unblock" request, and hoping that others will allow GorillaWarfare to do the review. Lightbreather (talk) 18:21, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

At first look I thought it was Orange/Yellow pinging me again. I see now it was GW. My mistake, apologies to all involved. I did not think it was you. GW being an admin is welcome to review this and find differently, or any admin for that matter. Chillum 18:24, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

I have reviewed this, and I do find differently, but I don't particularly want to overturn ban extension without agreement. GorillaWarfare (talk) 18:52, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Okay well you are not going to get my agreement, at best you get my lack of objection. I discussed this with the blocking admin and we agree. I think it is a bit naive to believe the story given, however I am happy to have my sanity checked. That is why we have so many admins. Consider talking to the blocking admin yourself about this if you have not already done so. Chillum 19:10, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

That is precisely what I am attempting to do. GorillaWarfare (talk) 20:45, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

@Chillum. We are basically an anonymous community and the right to anonymity is a vital part of our project. I suppose everyone here is familiar with the Essjay controversy. IIRC Essjay had pretended to be someone other than what he actually was, Jimbo was told about that, but Jimbo was OK with it because he rationalized that Essjay was fibbing about his identity in order to protect his anonymity. LB has also fibbed about the initial IP edits being hers in order to protect her anonymity. If it was OK for Essjay to fib in order to protect his anonymity, why is the same not OK for LB ? Why is her fib in order to protect her anonymity being held against her ?OrangesRyellow (talk) 03:50, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Joe job discussion

Regarding the Lightbreather discussion that Chillum started on Salvio giuliano's talk page, since I cannot respond there, I am doing so here. Lightbreather (talk) 18:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

1. Chillum: I am wondering what you make of the claims by Lightbreather that he/she was framed for the actions leading up to the block extension. A Joe job sort of thing. I don't think it is plausible. The behavior was so idiosyncratic and not the clumsy impersonation that normally comes along with a Joe job. Just wanted to see if you saw any merit in the claim.[2]
2. Salvio: No, I agree with you and I don't see any merit in the claim. There is no gentle way of saying this, but, put simply, I don't believe her when she says she didn't do it; she has already lied before, when she denied operating the first IP (the one for which she was originally blocked), so I don't attach much credence to her protestations.[3]
3. Chillum: I am glad we are on the same page then. Thank you.[4]

First question, before I even respond to the details, is how am I supposed to have a chance for a positive review outcome if the original blocker and the first reviewer (who ostensibly agreed to a second review) privately agree that there is no merit to the claim? Lightbreather (talk) 18:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Second question goes to Chillum's first set of comments. The single edit by IP address 69.16.147.185 was the deletion[5] of info that was related to me. There were others involved in that discussion, Question to Arbs, who felt that the information should not have been presented publicly there (on the GGTF ArbCom PD talk page). Others who spoke up and possibly others who did not speak up. Could any of those editors have made that deletion, in a misguided attempt to help me get rid of the information that I had asked to have revdeled? Lightbreather (talk) 18:46, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Third question goes to same set of comments. There were others in that discussion who had no problem with my username and IP address being connected publicly (against policy) and possibly others who felt the same way and did not speak up. (In other words, they were hoping that I would get blocked.) Could any of those editors have made that deletion, in a malicious attempt to get my block extended? Lightbreather (talk) 18:46, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Fourth question, rhetorical, involves the alleged idiosyncrasy of IP 69's behavior. Which behavior? I have already had to contribute to the outing of my personal information (real-life IP address) in order to present my argument for why I edited not-logged-in. My argument was not accepted as legitimate and for that I was blocked. And that block has expired.

But the block extension was based on one edit. There was no pattern of editing to compare to idiosyncratic behavior (as there was between my 36 edits logged out to my other edits as Lightbreather). The information that IP 69 had deleted had never been deleted by IP 72 or Lightbreather. I had asked to have it revdeled because I know enough to know that simple deletion would not have protected my personal information. There was no good reason for me to get sneaky and get myself into trouble to delete something when I know that deleting it would accomplish nothing positive for me. It wouldn't truly hide the personal information that I wanted to hide, and it would very likely cause me to be blocked again or for a longer period of time. Lightbreather (talk) 18:59, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Fifth question is for Salvio and involves a hypothetical.

There is a highly controversial discussion going on that you would like to participate in anonymously. You read WP:SOCK and decide that Privacy must apply, because you see that at least eight other editors have chosen to participate anonymously, too. Near the end of the discussion, someone speculates that some of the IPs (plural) in the discussion might be "case parties logged out."[6] A clerk replies, If you've got evidence of that could you please email it to me or the clerks' list. This makes you a little nervous, so you go to the main case page and re-read the Involved parties list. Your name is not there.

Six days later, the same person who had speculated before about IPs in the discussion being logged-out case parties PUBLICLY links your username to your IP address. Within a couple of hours, the same person starts an SPI and publicly asks for a checkuser, too. You still believe that your reason for participating in the highly controversial discussion, in which you were not an involved party, was legitimate. How do you defend yourself - without outing yourself? Do you lie outright - say "I am not Salvio" - or do you dance around the problem as best you can after reading Defending yourself against claims, and say, I have not abused multiple accounts or IPs and have not breached the policy on meat-puppetry.[7] Lightbreather (talk) 19:31, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Re contrary claims

Now DeCausa joins in with his "pre-arranged alibi makes her difficult to believe" comment?[8] Anyone who is familiar with my editing knows that I have on numerous occasions shared my RL plans when in the middle of an important discussion... as have many other editors, for that matter.

And Hell in a Bucket - who publicly outed my real-life IP address, without repercussion - chimes in with an "the evasion was her" allegation.[9] He must believe that repeating an allegation makes it a fact. Well, it doesn't. Only one person knows for sure who the IP 69 editor was: the IP 69 editor; and only two know who was not: the IP 69 editor and I. I was not the IP 69 editor. Lightbreather (talk) 00:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Casting aspersions

Since other editors are continuing to discuss me on another talk page, I will respond here... since it's the only place I can respond for the time being.

In just the last 24 hours:

• Admin Salvio giuliano (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) has called me a liar or fibber multiple times.[10][11][12][13]
• Admin Chillum (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) has called me a liar multiple times.[14]
• Editor Hell in a Bucket (talk · contribs) has called me a liar.[15]

WP:ASPERSIONS says, An editor must not accuse another of misbehavior without evidence, especially when the accusations are repeated or severe. If accusations must be made, they should be raised, with evidence, on the user-talk page of the editor they concern or in the appropriate forums. Not one of these allegations was made with a diff or in an appropriate forum. That's called "casting aspersions."

As for the claim by Chillum that, Logging out to edit a controversial area is evasion of scrutiny, not protection of privacy,[16] - WP:VALIDALT in the sock puppetry policy says just the opposite:

Privacy: A person editing an article which is highly controversial within his/her family, social or professional circle, and whose Wikipedia identity is known within that circle, or traceable to their real-world identity, may wish to use an alternative account to avoid real-world consequences from their editing or other Wikipedia actions in that area.

The real-world consequence of editing as Lightbreather in controversial areas is that I have been harassed on- and off-wiki. That is part of why I quit editing (along with, of course, not being called a "cunt," but being told that editors can act in ways deserving of being called a "cunt,"[17] and similar comments and actions by other editors).

--Lightbreather (talk) 19:45, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Involved parties at the GGTF ArbCom

Discussion collapsed while I think.

@Hell in a Bucket:, you keep claiming that I was an involved party in the GGTF ArbCom case. This allegation was part of your reasoning behind why my editing anonymously was inappropriate, leading to my block. Here is your latest iteration of the claim: Lightbreather didn't think she was an involved party, how in the blue hell was she not an involved party, she was involved in the case request, the first person filing evidence and then all of a sudden she retires and then comes back as an anon Ip.[18] Q: Was I listed among the Involved parties in the GGTF ArbCom? A: No. Q: Was my name even mentioned on the main case page? A: Yes, once, by Carolmooredc. That's it. (Carol also thought 11 others should be added to the list; the only one added was Neotarf.) Q: Was my name mentioned on the main case talk page? A: No. Q: Did I provide evidence in the case, just before I quit WP? A: Yes. Evidence was also provided by at least a dozen other editors who were not listed as involved parties in the case. Q: Did I retire "all of a sudden"? A: Yes, I got fed up with the hostile editing environment - even on the oddly named WikiProject Editor Retention. Q: Did I come back as an anonymous IP? A: Yes, and with the exception of one observation on the workshop talk page, I made no comments at the GGTF ArbCom case until a month after I quit. I didn't participate to vandalize or to disrupt, but to participate in good faith - anonymously. I was not an involved party in the GGTF ArbCom, but I was very interested in it, just like dozens of other editors, including yourself. --Lightbreather (talk) 20:21, 14 December 2014 (UTC) If you are going to continue running your mouth about me then I am not going to stay off this page. I'm going to reply en-mass and you probably won't like a lot of it. We have called you a liar because you lied. Simple as that, you came out of retirement on 11/14 yet you edited as this IP for your privacy [[19]] From 10/26 until I called you out. Apparently privacy only matters when you are pretending to be another person and not presenting evidence o=under your account but I digress. Remember saying I was casting aspersions before and yet you want to do the same thing again? Face it you egged that situation on until you lost, you wanted to say as the IP I'm not involved, you can checkuser me, when I basically tell you ok put your money where your mouth is by using things you provided on wiki and all of a sudden it's outing (a statement no other editor other then ORY has endorsed btw). You wanted to present evidence as two people, it had jack squat to do with privacy, that was your beard and you expected the people here who work with socks on a daily basis wouldn't see it. You were part of the declined civility case (remember your conflict with User:Scalhotrod) and you started plastering your off wiki twitter site because of User:Eric Corbett. Can you explain how you weren't an involved party? You gave a massive wall of evidence, you participated in the discussion quite a bit, enough so we had behavioral evidence to tie you to the IP in addition to the location information. You edited as the IP and as yourself to make it look like another person that just couldn't handle the big bad eric corbett, you sacrificed your integrity and reputation because you thought you could get away with it and that more people wouldn't dismiss what you were saying because of your past antics and involvement in the same dispute. The funny thing is that even as you wrongly thought Echastain was a puppet of Sue Rangell misusing the clean start you were doing the exact same thing with the IP. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, your welcome to revert it but I'm going to link it into the conversation on Salvio's page so even if you do people can see the baloney. You want to say that there was other parties editing logged out too, maybe there was but they at least had the good sense to limit those posts to limit suspicion. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 20:48, 14 December 2014 (UTC) You were part of the declined civility case. You also mentioned this at the GGTF ArbCom. Why? And why both times without a link? I just went and dug around and found the last revision before it was declined. It's three months old, and your name was the first given in the original complaint. Yes, my name was in the list of involved parties, but the case was declined. Why are you bringing it up? I didn't initiate it. Scalhotrod isn't named as an involved party in it (so I don't know why you're dragging his name into it). Let's leave the old, declined case out of this and focus on this case. Lightbreather (talk) 21:28, 14 December 2014 (UTC) You started plastering your off wiki twitter site because of User:Eric Corbett. That's not really a lie, but it's not really true, either. My complaint is with the incivility on Wikipedia, of which EC is/was only a part. Not only the incivility, but the rancorous opposition that is rained down on those who complain about it. Lightbreather (talk) 22:20, 14 December 2014 (UTC) You gave a massive wall of evidence. My evidence was about 550 words - more than some posted but less than others posted, and no clerk threw it out as a "massive wall." Lightbreather (talk) 21:59, 14 December 2014 (UTC) You edited as the IP and as yourself to make it look like another person that just couldn't handle the big bad eric corbett. This is simply untrue. Lightbreather (talk) 22:00, 14 December 2014 (UTC) Lightbreather do you really want me to go and dig up the evidence for you since July/August of this year so you can claim I"m not casting aspersions. Once I do can I get assurances you will not seek retribution? I actually think out of Neotarf and Carolmooredc, you were the more reasonable. I can do this but really what will it prove? I know you don't want to admit it but you did a dishonest thing. Tough grits, I think we all do that from time to time though or have at some point. The fact that I answer the taunt of baiting says a lot about me, but can't we all agree to move on? Even if I dig up all the diffs does it change the fact you were blocked for two weeks? No. Does it change the fact that you thought it nec to use an ip. No. Was it inappropriate, you think no, the community thinks yes. Do you think that you can do what's best for the encylopedia and help build it and work with people? You have the opportunity to turn everything negative on it's head and be what your username implies and be a breather of light to the world. Find a different way to spread the message, it's a good message really it is, but the method you are using to try and change things is a problem. Don't dirty the message with underhanded methods, people will respect you and the message so much more with up front and unwavering integrity. If you do that even your opponents will have to admit even in disagreement that you handled yourself with dignity and deserve accolade. off my soapbox. I really hope you will take me up on the offer to just move on and not force me to dig up the diffs. I certainly will if you insist but I think you are smarter then that and your pride is hurting at the moment, help recover by moving on and improving. YOu don't have to disbelief or recant just send the message differently and you will see dividends. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 01:03, 15 December 2014 (UTC) My hope was that someone would unblock me for that unjust "block evasion" extension. That and maybe apologize for calling me a liar. That didn't happen. Now I am going to sleep on what to do next. Lightbreather (talk) 02:45, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Proposed I-ban between you and Hell in a Bucket

Hi Lightbreather. Keeping in view the recent interactions between you and HiaB, I have proposed an I-ban between you two [20] directly below this [21]. Although I am not too familiar with the history between you two, what I have seen in the past month or so seems more than enough to think that an I-ban between you two has become necessary. It should bring some peace of mind for both, and also benefit the project because the project could hope to get some nice, more productive output from two eds. I certainly do not want to pressure anyone into accepting anything, and would surely like some others to offer their opinions / criticisms / suggestions on this proposal, and hope both of you would give serious consideration to this proposal. Best.OrangesRyellow (talk) 11:11, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm all for stopping the madness. Honestly my head is hammered today so I probably will not be on too much today either way to discuss it further until later tonight. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 13:45, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I am still drinking my coffee, and pondering what I want to do next. I'll consider this option, but won't say for sure until later today or maybe tomorrow. Thanks. Lightbreather (talk) 15:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I think for the immediate future (3 - 6 months) this would be a wise choice. We can revisit it then to determine if the issues surrounding the dispute between you two has settled down enough where you two can talk without trying to spit in each others faces. Because, right now, the only thing you two communicate is insults and accusations.--v/r - TP 21:55, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I am still thinking about it. Also, although I agree that I have made allegations against Hell in a Bucket, I don't recall insulting him - unless the allegations themselves are considered insults, but I believe I backed them up with evidence. Lightbreather (talk) 22:02, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Some of the accusations I find insulting but from a manners POV, Lightbreather is usually very polite, that's part of what frustrates me so much dealing with her, she has the potential that Neotarf or CMDC didn't to actually accomplish things IMO. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 23:21, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

OK @Salvio giuliano, TParis, Hell in a Bucket, and OrangesRyellow: I've had a day to think on it, and I would like an IBAN between Hell in a Bucket and me. But instead of 3 to 6 months, as TParis has suggested, let's say indefinitely until we both agree to lift it? Lightbreather (talk) 03:33, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

My concern is why a Iban is nec when the discourse is civil enough it's the delivery that's in the question. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 03:41, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

I am not so much concerned with "civility" here, although that may be a plausible issue. What I am thinking about is words like "productive", "useful", "beneficial". I do not foresee anything productive / useful / beneficial coming out of interactions, and although I do not like saying this, I only foresee the opposite of those things being produced from interactions, and taking away a lot of yours, and this projects time, energy and peace-of-mind resources in the bargain. An indef I-ban looks like a good idea to me.OrangesRyellow (talk) 04:11, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

This is ridiculous. LB socked (Personal attack removed) and HIAB caught her. That she didn't like being caught is of no consequence. If HIAB doesn't want to enter into this IBAN, then your only recourse is to ask at ANI and gather community input.Two kinds of pork^Makin'_Bacon 05:52, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

@Two kinds of pork: you are not welcome on this page if you're going to talk about/to me like that. I socked, yes, though not for the reason that I was "busted." Also, I've done my time, and then some. But most importantly, I. DID NOT. LIE. An accusation of lying is a severe accusation, and without evidence it is casting aspersions. If you will please strike that part of your comment, I will strike this part. Otherwise, stay off of my page and stop repeating this lie. Lightbreather (talk) 13:48, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Oh. You want to continue argueing who did / did-not do what wrong / right, instead of finding the way forward ? I suggest an indef I-ban between LB and you too is necessary.OrangesRyellow (talk) 06:51, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

OrangesRyellow, our banning policy allows bans such as you are suggesting only when there is a community consensus for it. Proposing it privately is of no effect. Community sanctions may be discussed on the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard (preferred) or on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You can discuss such things on one of the noticeboards but there is little point in suggesting it here. Even if the users agree it will still not be binding if broken. If the users are willing to avoid each other then no ban is needed. Chillum 08:18, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Voluntary, indefinite IBAN between HIAB and LB

@Hell in a Bucket: Will you agree to a voluntary, indefinite IBAN between us? If you will accept my word, I will accept yours. If either of us wants to lift the ban, we can go to the other's talk page and ask civilly. Lightbreather (talk) 13:39, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

@GorillaWarfare: would you mind being a counselor or witness to this? Lightbreather (talk) 13:53, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Here's my problem with an interaction ban, everyone who disagrees with you will eventually be on an Iban. Seriously and I can only comment on what I've seen but it seems like anyone who disagrees with you is the problem. The level of personal responsibility is very low, or at least it appears to me to be that way. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 23:02, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

You seemed agreeable to it yesterday.[22] But setting that aside, a question: Do you have any Ibans right now? Lightbreather (talk) 23:21, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

I was undecided yesterday, I was suffering a self inflicted hangover and that's why I stated I would discuss it further when I felt better.. The answer to your question, no I am not under any sanctions, Ibans or otherwise. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 23:40, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry you weren't feeling well. As for Ibans, I don't have any either. I don't think we should be worrying about how many you or I might have in the future. What I want to know is, will you agree to a voluntary, indefinite Iban, that we can talk about in the future when we're ready to agree on lifting it? Lightbreather (talk) 23:45, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Help me understand what this will accomplish? I've given this some thought and what happened, yes I think that your claims about outing, harrassment etc need to stop. I can't make you not feel that way but your interpretations are contrary as to what is considered those things in the community. My actions here have been to hold you responsible for editing logged out, I have held you accountable for outing other editors. I say I but I mean I was involved with those, obviously the actual judgement came down from other editors. An interaction ban would not stop a report on socking, it wouldn't stop the behaviors period. I've done research of various things I've told you since the inception of the actions leading up to the GGTF case from August on [[23]] and again my wall of post from Sunday some of the same things are present. The Iban perturbs me because it seems to me is that the only function it would serve would be a mistaken shield from someone that has followed encyclopedia policy to arrive at this point as I did in the lead up to the block. That's why I've been resistant to an Iban or the things OrangesrYellow or Tparis said because I remember the attempts made to actually talk this over with you. The common theme is that everyone that disagrees is wrong and everyone that agrees is helpful. At what point does the people here think that you aren't disrupting the encyclopedia to argue your case and doing it because you can't work the other people here? I personally think you have the ability to do so but you refuse to do it. I don't expect you to agree with what I wrote but these are my thoughts about it overall.
