[edit] Personal attack

Note for future reference for anyone reading: This is in reference to [1] and [2] -137.222.107.59 (talk) 10:49, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I won't take this matter any further unless you repeat it, but as I have already said in the talk page I suggest you take the time to read WP:NPA and in future please don't make personal attacks Nil Einne (talk) 10:32, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Please do not falsely accuse me of making a personal attack Nil Einne (talk) 10:39, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
I did not falsely accuse you of making a personal attack. And I quote:
Using someone's affiliations as a means of dismissing or discrediting their views — regardless of whether said affiliations are mainstream or not.
You claimed that because I did not live in Europe, I should not comment on the matter. By definition, this is using my affiliation to dismiss my view, a personal attack. I will take this to the village pump if you want Nil Einne (talk) 10:41, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Firstly, I don't live in the US as I said a long time ago. Secondly, you don't appear to understand NPA. Either that or I don't understand NPA. It is my understanding, you cannot use my affiliation, be it where I live, the fact I am agnostic etc to dismiss my views on a matter. I will take this to the VP since one of us is wrong Nil Einne (talk) 10:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Is dismissing someone's views because of where they live a personal attack? Nil Einne (talk) 11:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
