Some final comments?

So, you contradict yourself, while saying that my arguments are not well thought through?!?And since when do you need independent sources to know somebodies opinion? Don't they know their opinion best themselves? That wasn't very well thought through either. I think it would be better if you keep your comments to the article and the topic, and not other editors, if for no other reason that sheer ironic overload. Can wee agree on that, at least? --OpenFuture (talk) 07:34, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

"And since when do you need independent sources to know somebodies opinion?" - We do not need independent sources to know someone's opinion, but without an independent reliable source reporting on it, the opinion is not notable enough to be included in Misplaced Pages.

Per WP:Reliable sources, news sources are preferable to opinion pieces (which can be used under certain conditions, as explained on the policy page). As there are numerous news sources reporting on the issue at hand, i.e. on 9/11 conspiracy theories, an opinion piece is not acceptable here, because we should use the best sources that are available, of course.

I will continue to point out logical fallacies in your arguments, if necessary, so I'm afraid that we probably will not be able to agree on what you suggest.  Cs32en Talk to me  17:44, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Well, obviously news sources are preferable. So find a news source, then. Good luck finding a news source that discusses conspiracy theories. :) Or are you in fact claiming that the statement in the article is incorrect? You was asked this, and didn't answer. But you didn't replace the source with a better one, instead you claimed that the source was a bad source and should be removed because the author was conservative, which of course is complete nonsense.

You are of course welcome to point out logical fallacies that others make, even though your arguments are full of them. But it looks a bit silly, just so you know. But since you now to not discuss editors and keep away from personal comments, I'll have trouble in assuming good faith in your future personal comments towards other editors. --OpenFuture (talk) 17:53, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

We don't need any source there, because the section is a summary of the sub-article. You can find the news sources there. If you want to create more links to Cinnamon Stillwell's texts on the net, please use your own website.  Cs32en Talk to me  17:59, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Here you fail in assuming good faith, and also imply that I'm conservative, which is an insult. That breaks Wikipedias rules. --OpenFuture (talk) 18:01, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

9/11

One more stunt like that and I will report you and your friend to arbitration/AN. You were topic banned before, and I will seek an indefinite topic ban if you don't learn when to give up. –Turian (talk) 18:28, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
