[edit] Arbitration
What it would accomplish, I don't know, but creating conflicting versions of the same article is not the way to handle disputes. Clearly, you need independent eyes to review the issues and try to achieve some level of compromise. AfD is definitely not the place to try to resolve the issues here. Try reviewing the procedures at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration and request assistence there. Fan1967 12:53, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sidhoji Rao Shitole AfD
I understand that this should not be under AfD. I am planning to take this to ArbCom when I figure out the guidelines and such. I just wanted to request you to change your vote with respect to the following evidence: Wikipedia manual of style states that biography should be under most common name Ghits: Sidhoji Rao Shitole - 20 vs. Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath - 2580. --Hamsacharya dan 18:05, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- I personally don't care too much about what the name is, but as you've said it should not be on AFD (and for other reasons) I have closed the AFD discussion. Please use Wikipedia:Requested moves to solve your naming dispute. (I don't recommend bothering with arbitration, as firstly they require you to have exhausted all other methods for resolving the dispute, and secondly they don't generally handle content issues anyway.)

- Why didn't you just delete the article altogether since it already exists on Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath? Now there's two articles on the same topic. That's why I sent you the link to the manual of style on biographies - to show that it supports keeping the article on Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath. If you notice that there are 3 archives of discussion on the YGS page, you'll see why Arbcom is the place that this should be at this point. Hamsacharya dan 01:12, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

- At his point, I suggest you look into the WP:RFC procedures as Stifle suggested. I've never been involved in anything of that nature but it's clear you need outsiders (admins) involved. One of the very first lines on that page is telling: "RFC is appropriate when you want other Wikipedians to visit the page, to allow a consensus or a better quality of decision, to help resolve a dispute or break a deadlock." Sound familiar? Fan1967 02:52, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sidhoji Rao Shitole
Dan, the temp page has been deleted. Please make your changes to Sidhoji Rao Shitole, because it has the full edit history which must be preserved due to the GFDL license terms of Wikipedia. There are several editors on that versions whose edit history would be lost by a cut & paste move. Really, look up WP move policy... I am neither trying to be coercive or subversive, I am simply trying to adhere to policy and make sure that all the editors get proper credit for their work. —Hanuman Das 00:23, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
By the way, if you wish to preserve the current article with its edit history, I believe you could get an admin to move it to a subpage of your user page before the new page is moved into place so you would have access to it for as long as you need... But you had better get that arranged before the move team moves the new page into place. As there is a clear concensus, that could happen at any time. —Hanuman Das 00:27, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Hello Dan. I support the move of the Sidhoji Rao Shitole page. The Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath page is protected for a reason as you have pointed out. The reason it is protected is due to no other fact than the dispute over NPOV, appropriate content, criticisms on cited points, the fact that the subject asked the page be removed and alleged editorial abnormalities. There is currently an RfC pending in regard to your behavior as editor. The Sidhoji Rao Shitole page is now deemed NPOV by all the editors. This potential move is a clear victory for Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath in having a neutral page and for you yourself if you cooperate. This move would probably render the RfC regarding your editing practicies rather a non issue. I'm sorry I cannot support your request. I don't believe it is in the best interest of Wikipedia, nor does it help in the resolution of the points which remain in despute on the current Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath page.--Chai Walla 03:45, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Page History
I'm not an admin, so I wouldn't be able to recover the history. Try WP:RAA. Fan1967 23:11, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Namaskar
YOU: Namaste Bhadaniji. I haven't forgotten your kindness and your even-handed actions in my time of conflict. I just wanted to say hello, and let me know if you ever need any help in editing or otherwise with matters related to spirituality/meditation/yog or neuroscience/neurobiology/neuro-linguistic programming - my two primary areas of specialty.
ME:Sure, sure, I shall certainly take advantage of your experience and expertise. --Bhadani 15:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] False accusations
Dan, please don't falsely accuse me of corrupting Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath and waiting to edit war with you when you fix it as you have here. I have no problem with the short, objective version of the article, and never have. Don't forget that you still have an RfC open against your edit warring behavior. —Hanuman Das 13:38, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
