[edit] 167.206.63.34

A certain 167.206.63.34 added in the capped phrases. I deleted them, especially as he was so kind as to make it appear as if I put them in there on the Talk page. Obviously not a NPOV, not citing any sources, etc. --Yodamace1 21:22, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Sources of information regarding abuse at this facility include isaccorp.com, fornits.com, myspace.com. Yodamace is an employee of the facility and is attempting to censor information regarding the practices of the facility.

These allegations may be true, but specific references to reliable sources must be added before such strong statements can be made. Please point to specific web sites or off line resources such as newspaper articles. - SimonP 03:16, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Isaccorps would be a reliable source if they actually had HLA on their list. Fornits and Myspace's "Hidden Lake Academy" group are merely alumni forums. Also, please see the NPOV article. You can attack HLA all you want on said message boards. You can put said message boards as links on the Wiki page. You can put the students' reaction to the school in a subsection. But you can't make Wikipedia your personal propaganda machine and you can't spread rumors about me because I'm telling you something you don't want to hear. --Yodamace1 14:24, 5 January 2006 (UTC) (PG59)

Hidden Lake Academy employs MANY of the abusive tactics on this watchlist, including such things as "treating homosexuality." HLA USES MANY OF THE ABUSIVE AND ILLEGAL TECHNIQUES SPECIFICIED BY ISAC!

I sweated to put your edits into a somewhat acceptable format, but I finally managed to.--Yodamace1 17:07, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you, Yodamace, for your work to format the additions made to this page. I humbly apologize to you for my harsh criticism and sincerely thank you for including the information that I, as a computer novice, did not properly format.

It's cool. I apologize if I offended you in any way. To learn how to use the Wiki, I recommend going to a large article you're interested in, and clicking "edit." It'll then show you how people formatted the various sub-categories of the article and how much formality is necessary in these types of articles. Always read the "discussion" page though. --Yodamace1 19:11, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

My original post was edited with the blue word: They are also given their own small common room, although they do NOT have the right to have CDs and walkmen, or any kitchen appliances. I'd like someone to please verify that. --Yodamace1 22:19, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] To the one with IP number 166.102.251.209

Not your propoganda page. Please see the article NPOV. You can also refer back to my criticisms of 167.206.63.34 who seemed to have the exact opposite point of view than you if you don't trust my neutrality. Should you attempt to reattempt to twist this article one more time, I will do everything in my power to have your IP blocked and if that doesn't work, put the article on--at the very least--Wikipedia:Semi-protection policy. In other words, I'll put the article on restrictions for manipulation. --Yodamace1 16:40, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New links by 68.174.121.171

These links seem OK, but please put a new description of how they relate to HLA instead of who they are. Also, I don't know why, but the "A START" link works only if you cut and paste it. --Yodamace1 09:07, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gee...

I've got some other business to take care of and I really don't have time to take care of this article...it's insane how much this thing gets biased by anonymous people. I'm slapping a NPOV tag on, notifying the Neutrality Project, and leaving it alone. --Yodamace1 10:13, 29 August 2006 (UTC) Changed my mind after someone decided to abuse this immediately and nobody from the NP came to the rescue. I guess I have no choice...I'll just continue to take care of this thing. --Yodamace1 11:42, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi Yodamace1. I am very sorry that no one responed from the Neutrality Project. I just joined recently. I can see some of the issues that may be controversial. Could you please give some direction as to the issues you would like reviewed? Additionally, what direction are the reverts going (pro or con), and do you have a particular affiliation with the institution? I would definitely like to help you make a balanced article. I just need a bit more information to put the issue in prospective.

It's fine now...ever since somebody nominated the article for deletion, some admins have taken notice and been keeping it in line. Thanks anyways. --Yodamace1 18:04, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
