Hello[edit]

I think you're supposed to get a paste of a standard welcome message... I've never welcomed anyone before so I hope you'll forgive me for not including it. I also don't think you really need it... ;)

I just wanted to say thank you for your statement on the evidence page on the EI / CAMERA affair. The evidence I have matches what you had, but the fact that Wikipedians for Palestine seemed paraniod about infiltration was not quite as strong without your testimony. It probably makes zero difference to the case, but it validates the research I did and the conclusions I drew. As a researcher you seldom get clear cut evidence like that (either to prove or disprove the hypothesis)... so thank you for sharing it.

Incidently I'm not sure if you'll get this given that this account (from your own evidence) appears to be a fresh account (I doubt that qualifies as a sock puppet, but who knows... every one is paranoid now!) created for the purpose of posting the evidence without bringing your indentity as an editor into the equation. If this isn't acceptable in policy... it probably should be! :)

All the best and thank you again. Oboler (talk) 21:35, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FYI: [1] - the jpg is after they deleted the 2008 e-mail archive - including many e-mails during April 2008 (the time the infiltration took place into CAMERA).

Please note that "wiki for Palestine" is just one group. There are others on ton of mailing lists on yahoo, riseup.net and so forth: It is impossible to know what groups are there, what they do, why they do it, how many admins they have control over etc…same about private e-mails.

The only read evidence we have before us is the end result: wikipedia articles. Some articles are closely guarded by several people who push any outside influence to the point that users are discouraged from participating in the edit process. --Southkept (talk) 13:31, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm... you seem to have more information on this. I'd be interested in having a list of such groups that you do know about if you are willing to share it... I actually have a book on Web 2.0 coming out towards the end of the year, the Wikipedia section is still on the to do list. If you want to e-mail, there is a button on my profile. Thanks for checking your talk page as well. :) Oboler (talk) 13:41, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many emails? Really? According to this google cache from April 7, 2008 the grand total of posts made in 2008 up to that point was zero. In fact, the grand total for at least the 7 months prior to April 7, 2008 was zero. According to this screenshot posted by Juanita on May 9th, closeup here the grand total of posts in April was a mighty 3. 3 is not "many" except for those people who can't count beyond 2. In 15 of the 28 months that wikiforpalestine existed (or more than half) no posts were made at all. For the remaining 13 months the median number of posts made a month were 3 - you can't plan a conspiracy making only 3 posts a month, I don't think. In short, Israpedia had more posts in one month than wikiforpalestine had in 28 - you're hard pressed to make a case that the two are equivalent. 65.95.117.75 (talk) 03:29, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It could be that once contacts are made then correspondence can be done by other means thus making you mean meaningless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.21.249.114 (talk) 04:26, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FYI[edit]

Just FYI. See [2] as it concerns you. Oboler (talk) 06:30, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
