==A request for assistance==
Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. ] 05:02 3 January 2007 (UTC).

:I don't recall ever editing the Earhart page. Such generic requests to uninvolved editors should be lodged at ]. ] 18:02, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I have responded on ]. Thank you for approaching the matter so calmly and rationally. -- ]

Nothing personal, as we've all a right to our opinions on AfD, but I thought I'd at least identify what I am talking about. The italicized "peace" is a translation of "Salaam," the use of which is meant as a proclamation of religious identity. As I do not adhere to that particular religion, I find it annoying, much as others might find it annoying were I to conclude every post with, "In the name of Jesus Christ."] 06:55, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
:Hi derex, I just want to comment Proabivouac comment above. Equating ] to "]" doesn't make any sense. Yes salam is a translation for peace, so what? If I follow Proabivouac's logic, Anyone can't say anything. Almost all english words has arabic translation, and posting english translation of arabic is "a proclamation of religious identity". ''Peace''. --''']'''<sub>]</sub> 12:39, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Seems like there is a lot of personal baggage on all sides over at that AFD. My sense from reading the debate is that people are largely voting in line with their personal sympathies, rather than whether the topic is suitable for a Misplaced Pages article. That is an entirely different question than whether the current one is perfect, and this looks to me like an attempt to use AFD to circumvent standard editing dispute resolution. For the deletionists: if the accusations are bunk, this is a great place to document that neutrally. ] 20:18, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

==Uninformed==
I must say, you are the most irrational person I have ever had the displeasure of coming across in all of Misplaced Pages. You need to end your obsession with the ] article. You refuse to offer any constructive criticism and hide behind the excuse you don't want to get involved, yet you continue to show up every now and then on the talk page to whine and cry. Grow up. Either state what facts are wrong, correct what you feel is wrong on your own, or move along somewhere else. Your petty musings are no longer amusing. Good day, --] 02:38, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
