[edit] Request for cabal mediation
[edit] Request Information
- Request made by: DieWeibeRose 23:00, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
The anonymous IP in question has been blocked by an Administrator and the page has been protected from edits by anonymous editors. I withdraw my request for mediation.--DieWeibeRose 04:58, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Where is the issue taking place?
- Jack Abramoff
- What's going on?
- User:85.250.166.7 has made a series of edits/reverts to the Jack Abramoff article without explaining her/himself in the Edit Summary or, with one exception, in Talk. In that one instance, User:85.250.166.7 violated Wikiquette and simply insulted another editor.[1]
- What would you like to change about that?
- I would like User:85.250.166.7 to stop making major edits without justifying or explaining them in Talk and to observe Wikiquette by not insulting other editors.
- If you'd prefer we work discreetly, how can we reach you?
- ...
[edit] Comments by others
- This anonymous IP and another (64.18.2xx.xxx) are revert-warring over one particularly inflammatory paragraph which adds little value to the article. -Kwh 02:42, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
- If you have suggestions on how to make the article less inflammatory then let's see them in Talk. As for your "little value" claim, the underlying information was important enough to be investigated by the US Senate Indian Affairs Committee and to be featured in, among others, a Newsweek article. It was also of enough "value" to prompt some Indian leaders to publicly note that Abramoff had defrauded one indigenuous people to help violently oppress another indigenous people.--DieWeibeRose 06:29, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
- Excuse me, you seem to have an axe to grind just like the other two editors. At any rate, I have indeed already said my piece on the Talk page. I'd rather that the POV battle over the fine points of the Middle East conflict not be played out in this article. Juan Cole's opinion on the Middle East conflict does not add value to a reader's understanding of Jack Abramoff. -Kwh 16:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
