== De-Adminship == == Good instincts ==


After reviewing the history of the "Sam Blacketer" incident I noticed that you were among the very few who opposed his adminship. I just wanted to compliment everyone who did since all of you had either good instincts, good reasoning and weren't afraid of going against the grain. If you ever seek adminship then please let me know - we need more good admins. ] (]) 00:14, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Further conversation there seemed out of place. The reason the last attempt at de-adminship went down in flames was the way it was being done. Long story, and it was spread over many pages, just trust me, it was bad. Also, while I do agree there is some merit to having a simple process for de-adminning, upon further review I'm not sure it would be worth the cost. All proposals so far would have resulted in a melee of abuse, hard feelings, and other unproductive edits. There doesn't seem to be a way to allow valid requests for de-adminship and not allow the invalid ones without appearing to be playing favorites. Allowing them all would be a mess and no one would get any work done. The problem is admins stick their necks out and even when following policy and acting in the best interests of Misplaced Pages, they are of course going to anger those they sanction. So there will always be people willing to harass any de-adminship process. The only legitimate process I see to avoid some of the problems would be to have a discussion every year on every admin to reapply. Those that get at least half supports would stay, those no would lose their admin rights. But that still faces the problem of getting harassed by editors who have been legitimately blocked and banned. Also, for those admins clearly following Misplaced Pages policy, they would certainly, and rightly be supported by other admins. That would lead to even greater cries of cronyism. If you have a magic system to avoid enough problems that it would be worth the cost let me know. - ] <sup><small>]</sup></small> 17:56, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

I recall you were an effective partner in that endeavor and I wish you'd come back. So far as the mediation is concerned, I read between the lines (and perhaps inaccurately) that you didn't have confidence in aspects of the process (I needn't elaborate, particluarly if I misinterpreted your thoughts).

Hiya Grace Note, thanks for voting on my RfA! I'm sorry if I worded my explanation a little badly, so let me clarify: Everyking's opposition is to one of my proposals, which was to change the requests for admin procedure into a mentoring system. Everyking didn't like what he saw as a step away from democracy and voting (which I explained was incorrect on the RfA page, as my proposal involves discussion and feedback quite prominently). So the irony is you have opposed due to me not following Everyking's proposal, whereas the one thing Everyking thought I did not follow was his democracy view, which you just said you thought was evil!

thx 4 your remarks, grace n, but I did in fact try hard to talk to duck & get his reasons for strange editing behavior, which NO one had agreed to;

I appreciate your support for him, and yes, my POV is sometimes self-serving, but I msut also be accurate, as there ''is'' truth to many or all of my assertsions

I may not be retired and have twenty-forevers to edit, but I work with consensus, and try to get input -IF the other parties are willing; While I'm not perfect and you mean well, I think you didn't see the fine details of my answers in the 3RR page; I made numerous efforts, all for the better readibility (not pushing MY websites), so that is selfless, not selfish. We don't get paid, so you can understand how things get hard for editing for free -and add to that the LACK of screening for editors -especially on big articles, where vandals can whack an article like that - a recipe for trouble.

REad my '''detailed!''' complaint on the 3RR page, and then if you stil have questions, hit me up for a clarification. Take care, --] 13:43, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

I want to add that I think it's good that you suggested Duck not revert too much and get in trouble (but instead to ask other users who would be glad to make the edits/reverts) --I would think (and hope) that if my edits were good, you'd do the same for me; I was only trying to help improve the readibility of the page, not offend anybody; Thank you for your concern, but do know I tried my best as indicated by my contemprary comments at the time.--] 11:09, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

First of all, why did you use an IP on my talk. Second, I didn't remove your vote. Third, why don't you try a real vote instead of insulting the proposal and not saying why you don't like it. So I think you should put the vote back yourself with a real reason. ] ] 02:15, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

I have two thing to say. In defence of Husnock, it is not rude to respond on your own talk page. I don't like it either, but a lot of users do it. Second, just a breach of the personal attack rule that you might want to know about. From the personal attack section of wikipedia:blocking policy "Derogatory humour only avoids being a personal attack if the subject agrees that it is funny." As Husnock and I don't find your statement funny, it could be considered a personal attack. Happy editing. ] ] 14:44, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

==Hammesfahr==
I've read some of his comments about her, and I agree they seem unlikely, particularly in light of the autopsy report that half her brain seemed to be missing. However, it remains the case that he's a practising neurologist, that he has no charges of unprofessional conduct against him, that he examined her (unlike many of the doctors who have expressed views), and that he offered a dissenting opinion. Therefore, if the diagnoses of the other seven neurologists who examined her are to be mentioned in the introduction, then so must his, and without comment as to his credibility.

However, if you read my intro, I also added the brain size from the autopsy report. I did that in order to make it clear that any diagnosis of reversible minimal consciousness was unlikely to have been correct. In controversial articles like this, and particularly in the intros, the facts have to be allowed to speak for themselves in a subtle way. We can't just not mention people, or mention them but then add commentary that poisons the well.

Finally &mdash; and I stress I'm not defending Hammesfahr's diagnosis here &mdash; it's perhaps worth remembering that Hammesfahr practises alternative medicine, and such doctors are routinely dismissed as quacks, or accused of wrongdoing, by the medical community for political reasons. ] <sup><font color="Purple">]</font></sup> 03:39, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
