Could I suggest that mundane editorial disagreements are most likely to resolve quickly and productively when editors observe the following:

  • Remain polite per WP:Civility.
  • Solicit feedback and ask questions.
  • Keep the discussion focused. Concentrate on a small set of related matters and resolve them to the satisfaction of all parties.
  • Focus on the subject rather than on the personalities of the editors.

Thanks!

[edit] Historical Revisionism comment in Template talk:LDS

I am very puzzled by your comment about historical revisionism in regards to the organization of the "LDS" template. I was trying to establish an article and its connection to the LDS Movement, why it might be justified for inclusion with a general navigation template as opposed to other items that seemed to me for being of lesser importantce.

Is this historical revisionism by making up stuff on a talk page that is out of context from the original discussion, or are you making a comment about particular historical events that I mentioned there? You are in particular suggesting this terminology as a pejorative, but I really don't see where your comment has context to the discussion. --Robert Horning 01:16, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] More charges of historical revisionism

Hi Tinosa, I share puzzlement of your charge(s) of historical revisionism. In my case, re James Buchanan, of which I am not the authoring editor, but more trying to avoid the complete whitewash of the subject of the man's sexual orientation by deletion. Newsweek and the New Yorker which have published articles considering the sexuality of Buchanan and Lincoln, are, of course, easily dismissable as being a part of the liberal media cabal. But C-SPAN's Brian Lamb and presidential historian Michael Beschloss, both who have written and spoken about the possibility of Buchanan's homosexuality, are not exactly radical fringe.

Attempting to understand the man, and considering the possibility of his sexuality isn't defamation. Of course Buchanan was not "gay," that's a twentieth century construct. He'd probably look dreadful in a Speedo even if still alive. Making an argument that Buchanan was homosexual can not be concieved as advancing a gay agenda. The association doesn't exactly bolster the profile of contemporary homosexuals. What group would want to claim a man who sat back and allowed eight states to claim succession without taking action?

From my perspective the best revisionism to be found on this site, and it is a revisionism of quite recent history, comes from the pro-Romney editors on the Mitt Romney and Mitt Romney presidential campaign, 2008 articles. They deserve respect if for nothing more than their fortitude, ceasless 24/7 surveilance and revets, curiously often from IP address identitified users. I live in Massachusetts and remember Mitt speaking to the gay community about what a friend they would have in him. And also how he assured supporters of abortion he would not seek to overturn abortion rights. Of course in this bluest of blue states he really could not have been elected otherwise. But how carefully, and completely,' the editorial airbrush is deployed in his articles here. I have zero reservations about voting for a member of the Church of Latter Day Saints, But 360-degree swings on policy after policy does begin to erode a candidate's authenticity. After changing his policy on gay issues, abortion, the Iraqi war, and death sentence I feel he begins to emerge as a bit of a political prostitute, and at a time we so badly need good cantidate from both parties.

[edit] James Buchanan Page

Your input is requested on the Talk:James Buchanan page. A couple of people are arguing for inclusion of material sourced only to books known to be pop history and Salon.com. Any aid in the discussion would be appreciated.K. Scott Bailey 05:19, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ririe, Idaho page

Please stop vandalizing the Ririe, Idaho page I created. It's the first page I've created and I'm proud of it and want it to be useful. Clearly your beef is with portraying Mormons in any sort of positive light, and I think I've done a good job of being objective in my writing. I'm hardly a Mormon propogandist: I was excommunicated years ago for being gay. Go find someone else to piss on. --Coryarlo 04:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
