[edit] Personal attack

Where is the personal attack? Sam [Spade] 05:39, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Wikipedia:No personal attacks reads, "Discuss the facts and how to express them, not the attributes of the other party." This would indicate that "negative personal comments" fall under the umbrella of personal attacks. I'm not sure if "evil" qualifies as a "political affiliation attack."

I quote WHEELER, responding to Snowspinner, emphasis mine: "What is not appropriate is propaganda and bowlderization of the word that you want to attempt to do. That is evil. You want to rewrite 2500 years that is not right, that is not the truth either."

Hmmm... I think it was a bad comment, as were a few others. I'm dubious if they ad up to an official personal attack or not tho. I'll mention something about it in the article talk. Sam [Spade] 06:22, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Outside view?

Sam, I would hardly consider you an "outside view" since you are active on the relevant article and talk page and have disagreed with WHEELER. Hyacinth 20:17, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

My view is "outside" because I agree w neither you summary, nor WHEELER's (altho I admit I don't understand WHEELER's summary, so maybe I do agree w it, and just don't know it?!? ;) Sam [Spade] 20:27, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Good point. Thanks. Hyacinth 20:46, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)
