[edit] My RfB
I wanted to personally thank you, Bigg, for your support in my recent RfB. I am thankful and appreciative that you feel that I am worthy of the trust the community requires of its bureaucrats, and I hope to continue to behave in a way that maintains your trust in me and my actions. I have heard the community's voice that they require more of a presence at RfA's of prospective bureaucrats, and I will do my best over the near future to demonstrate such a presence and allow the community to see my philosophy and practices in action. I hope I can continue to count on your support when I decide to once again undergo an RfB. If you have any suggestions, comments, or constructive criticisms, please let me know via talkpage or e-mail. Thank you again. -- Avi (talk) 16:27, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Your edit in Jork
Hi Bigglove,
in this edit you added two refs to the article of Jork, but the URL underlying the second one of them is incorrect and actually leads back to the article itself. Could you kindly correct that. -- Túrelio (talk) 06:52, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Nadia Abu El Haj
Your recent edits to the Nadia Abu El Haj article were not quite vandalism, but they did not display much concern for either accuracy or neutrality. The fact that Abu El Haj speaks Hebrew is properly footnoted in the article to a New Yorker - it's not appropriate to simply remove this information, perhaps because you've seen some of the misinformation on the subject which is floating around on the Internet. Re "wrote" versus "published claims", see WP:WTA:
- By itself, the word "claim" does not carry POV. However, it has a high potential for abuse because it can often suggest or imply that a speaker is not being truthful... do not use "claim" merely as shorthand to communicate that someone's belief or statement is incorrect. If it is incorrect as a matter of fact, be clear about that. If it is ambiguous, be clear about that, too.
Please be more careful in the future, especially on biographies of living persons. Kalkin (talk) 22:36, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

- OK on the first, (although I doubt it is true; where did she learn Hebrew? Beruit? I doubt it). No on the second. It is a polemic claim not grounded in genetic science. Bigglovetalk 00:27, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
