== Being a controversial editor? ==

I am disconcerted (but not surprised) to witness the amount of animosity that my RfA has triggered in some editors. Is being a "controversial" editor, (i.e. one that edits controversial articles or that does not give up in asserting the need for accuracy and NPOV) a bad thing in your opinion? How does one deals with such animosity? Should I withdraw my candidacy? I would sincerely appreciate your comments on this. --] ] 19:53, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing. — Jimbo Wales

Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper. — Robert Frost


And in the (highly unlikely) event that you're here with a personal attack: "Any time something is written against me, I not only share the sentiment but feel I could do the job far better myself. Perhaps I should advise would-be enemies to send me their grievances beforehand, with full assurance that they will receive my every aid and support. I have even secretly longed to write, under a pen name, a merciless tirade against myself."
Jorge Luis Borges

Open gaming and 68.10.113.7

Hi SV,

Anon IP 68.10.113.7 has once again reverted and deleted content from Open gaming without discussing it on the talk page first despite several attempts and warnings now from you and myself. Is there anything that can be done? Axon (talk|contribs) 10:52, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Back to our Edit War

Virgin, it looks like Mel is back, which means the edit war will probably resume (after about 5 days of peace. Is there a way to end this peacefully? Mel is acting clueless in many situations and making the article look like hot messes. I've provided documentation about the usage of # and the remix notation, but Mel seems to be doing whatever he pleases. (Not to mention that the MoS allowed numbers to be spelled out) OmegaWikipedia 20:30, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Thank you (plus a present)

Thank you for your help with admin defense! (KC)
Thank you for defending my name in the recent spat of User:Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters's 3RR block. I appreciate the time and effort that you spent discussing items with that user, and the calm demeanor that you (virtually...) expressed. So, here's the Resilient Barnstar for you! Thanks a lot, Bratsche 21:23, September 7, 2005 (UTC)

Judea and Samaria

I'm sorry if I somehow came off as agressive; I certainly didn't mean to be. Truth be told, I was a little off-put by a lack of full engagement in discussion over the last 2 weeks. If my words were a little stronger than usual, it was because I wanted to engage you in a sustained conversation rather than a "statement, reply, reply, full stop" as had happened twice already. Believe me, I only use italics as a last resort! :) I just felt I wasn't hearing your side fully, which I do always want to hear. So thanks for listening, and thanks for spreading the WikiLove!--Pharos 02:29, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Vandal blocked

I've blocked the IP-addressed vandal who has been defacing this talk page, and I've put it on my watchlist. -- The Anome 10:19, September 9, 2005 (UTC)

Being a controversial editor?

I am disconcerted (but not surprised) to witness the amount of animosity that my RfA has triggered in some editors. Is being a "controversial" editor, (i.e. one that edits controversial articles or that does not give up in asserting the need for accuracy and NPOV) a bad thing in your opinion? How does one deals with such animosity? Should I withdraw my candidacy? I would sincerely appreciate your comments on this. --ZappaZ File:Yin yang.png 19:53, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
