Remember remember, the fifth of your mother

The truth is on to you, neocon scum! You are being tracked and watched! You will be brought to light! Viva la revolución!

Your recent actions have been noted, and your actions are being tracked and tallied for irreperable harm caused. Your vandalism must stop--you are the enemy.

(The foregoing comments brought to you by my good friend The Che Vandal)

Sorry I couldn't talk to you before you got blocked. Maybe we wudda been chums! Morton Devonshire

Do you know anyone from the U.K. (are you from U.K.)? Just FYI, This is the beginning of a Guy Fawkes night poem "Remember, Remember the 5th of November" commemorating a foiled plot to blow up parliament. It's celebrated with fireworks in U.K. like the 4th of July in the U.S.--Tbeatty 04:02, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

The Chewbacca Defense

This one seems perfectly attuned to the standard 9/11 conspiracy line of thinking. Morton devonshire 23:15, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

The Terror Timeline

Could you tell me why you reverted again on the above article without any proper edit summary, or any discussion on the talk page, when I had clearly given reasons why the material should stay? This is not collaborative work, and reeks of meatpuppetry. I expect a higher standard of conduct than this. Tyrenius 00:06, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

• • I like Peeps' version better -- that's all. Meatpuppetry? Get real -- that's for amateurs. Morton devonshire 00:22, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I wish someone could explain to me what "collaborative work" has to do with "merciless editing", the wikipedia credo? PainMan be confused regarding this.

in re: Up Right Now

Thanks for the heads up; in re: 9/11 Conspiracy "Theories". Is there going to be a vote or something on these? PainMan 01:23, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

How I found your user page

I found your page while googling for tinwiki. I hope the "truth" movements decide to leave wikipedia and go there.

I first heard of Alex Jones via wikipedia (always a bad sign) when someone added his anti-Arnold group to Schwarzenegger's article. Do you think Jones' article will ever be deleted?

Do you feel that the article religion of peace is irredeemably bad?

I liked your comment about "truth" being like "people's republic", but my personal favourite about "truth" is from one of the Indiana Jones' movies, where the teacher says that archaeology is about facts, not truth. Thanks, Andjam 07:46, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Jones? No, like it or not, he's a notable Nutburger, so his article stays. Religion of peace -- I think eventually it will go, because it's made-up political rhetoric, designed to demonstrate just how "inclusive" and tolerant we are in America. I think it was made up for a poltical speech, and doesn't have the staying power of say, Axis of Evil. Truth Movement leaving Misplaced Pages? Not until Google changes its search methodology -- right now, because of some strange search algo, Misplaced Pages outranks almost everything else -- it shouldn't -- it's shit for accuracy. So long as Misplaced Pages stays on top of Google, it's the battleground. Cheers, and happy editing. Morton devonshire 07:58, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

It's easy enough for nutters to get good google hits without wikipedia - try googling for Nicholas Berg. I think the tendency for wikis to have the subject matter in the page title helps, as google gives a fair weighting to that. That kind of advantage would apply for any wiki. With respect to religion of peace, you're aware of its additional use in a sarcastic tone, aren't you? Andjam 13:11, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Chewbacca

Hi Morton. While I rarely play copyright cop, the Chewbacca image is fair use and probably shouldn't be used in userspace. Take care -- Samir धर्म 08:00, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Waaaah! Okay. Morton devonshire 17:14, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Hello there. If you're into tinfoil hats, you may be interested in the article on Michael Menkin, which is up for deletion. Byrgenwulf 12:56, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

It look like you missed this one. --Striver 21:45, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Dude! Giving up on Alex Jones (radio)? He would be so disappointed. Morton devonshire 22:10, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

No, i am still a great fan of him. Lets say that some circumstances has discouraged me.--Striver 12:33, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Boosterism

You have deleted material again, and left the edit summary "Misplaced Pages is not boosterism". There is no such thing in guidelines. Could you kindly explain what you mean by this? The information is referenced from a major publisher. It is relevant to the book if someone of note (which I understand the Jersey Girls are) says something of this nature about the book and its author. This is interesting and informative material for the reader. We are here to provide information, not censor it. You have complained that conspiracy theorists are intent on pushing a POV agenda on wikipedia, and I have agreed this is not acceptable. Nor is it acceptable to try to undermine any information or anything that is favourable to such theories. That is also POV. If you wish to participate in this article, perhaps you could help to find material to add to it. Tyrenius 18:38, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
