[edit] Portal:Schools

Please respond to my question on the RFC about what you want out of the process. I am willing to discuss everything but allowing your group any active role in editing the Schools Portal, which has worked well and largely managed to stay separate from this dispute. I am not being unreasonable in requesting that you leave this space alone - it is an important resource which I do not wish to see become embroiled in a disagreement, but I unequivocably oppose any moves to change how Showcase articles are chosen. As I have said, I will give any suggestions a fair hearing - and I would be willing to hear arguments regarding adding St Michaels to the list, no matter my views on your group's edits to it - but refuse to allow it to become a voting process to assign showcase status. If you wish to have St Michaels recognised otherwise, consider the Featured Articles Candidates process or have the article referred to peer review. Please consider taking this route rather than starting another dispute.

Perhaps we could look to discuss further moves between ourselves on our talk pages, but if any anons or members of your group move in to pressure me in any way as has happened before I will stop this approach. I don't like stand-over tactics, but am willing to rationally debate ideas with you in a one-to-one manner, or in a civilised forum for ideas on a talk page. Thanks.

I am sorry you are unwilling to have some sensible discussion on these matters. We'll see what happens with the RFC, but I refuse to allow you to muscle in on the Schools Portal, which is of too high quality to allow you to ruin it. I have over 4000 edits to Wikipedia, and have proven my worth by contributing to a huge range of articles and projects here, but know that you have only edited St Michaels realted articles or pages related to me. Maintaining a portal or similar position on Wikipedia is seen to be a role for a long-time contributor, so please try to constructively add to our project before calling me out as being against Wikipedia policies. To move past this injunction, the ball is in your court. Harro5 08:58, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Your RFC on Harro and related matters

Hi, beyondcapricorn. I've just replied at some length to Harro on my Talk, and somewhat to you too at the same time, as you had posted a message to Harro there. Please take a look at the points I make, and respond if you like. Bishonen | talk 10:43, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Your new approach

Good to see you and Comradeash contributing positively (case ini point some changes to Wesley). Hopefully this continues and you both become valued contributors to school and other articles on Wikipedia. Harro5 19:58, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
