==Editing==

CENSEI wrote: "I have been going through a lot of the articles you have contributed to and I just have to say ..... not cool." Please CENSEI refrain from ]. Seriously, your edits are sloppy, you are confrontational, your edit summaries are often misleading and you are focusing on removing left-leaning criticism while boost up right-leaning criticism. This isn't NPOV editing, it is merely partisan editing, not an effort to improve Misplaced Pages. Bring up your concerns with Goethean on the ] talk page and get others involved otherwise you are violating ] and creating a disturbance. Misplaced Pages should not be a contest of wills, no matter how strongly you feel about things. --] (]) 01:19, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

:<blockquote>Reading another user's contribution log is not in itself harassment; those logs are public for good reason. In particular, proper use of an editor's history includes (but is not limited to) fixing errors or violations of Misplaced Pages policy or correcting related problems on multiple articles</blockquote>, so I certainly dispute the stalking accusation. My edits may be sloppy for now, but I am a quick learner. Please point to an example where I removed left leaning criticism and boosted right leaning criticism? All I have done so far is to decreas all criticism, especialy when it violates policy. ] (]) 01:22, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

:I'll repeat myself: bring in others and aim for consensus. Misplaced Pages isn't a contest of wills and if you just go around reverting Goethean's edits in a sloppy fashion while treathening and berating him, you are just creating an unpleasant atmosphere that isn't going to conclusively solve things. I think your removal of Goethean's unsourced addition to the Brian Ross article earlier was a good one since it wasn't at all sourced. But arguing about WP:WEIGHT is not a clear-cut battle and saying that TPM and Glenn Greenwald aren't valid sources is I think going too far. I think you are editing too fast in the case of Milbank as there were good sources that supported that material, including Politico, but you were just removing it wholesale while being confrontational with Goethean. You aren't aiming for consensus, you are trying to dominate via a contest of wills, just what I was saying that Goethean shouldn't try to do earlier. --] (]) 01:38, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

To answer your earlier question, here is an edit that I felt boosted up a right-leaning take on things.

http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Mark_Halperin&diff=next&oldid=230050033

Notice how you emphasized the "reinforce long standing beliefs of ]" based on a reference for which the text isn't even available online. That struck me as strange. You are doing some research for some positions. You just said yourself that you come from Conservapedia. You are also removing TPM and Gleen Greenwald links, which are left leaning sources (and I've seen you remove DailyKos links, but that is more understandable and it is an open blogging site.) You are also ridiculing MMFA. This is unfortunately partisan talk. --] (]) 01:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

: The whole sentence I added, not just the section above will provides it with the needed context '''Halperin was criticized by conservatives who used the memo to ''reinforce long standing beliefs of ]''.'''. I thought I was being clear that is was conservatives, cited fro Ponnuru and the Washington Times that were linking this to thier own perceptions of bias. ] (]) 15:31, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

The second guy he sees, he pulls to the side and smelling alcohol on his breath asks how much he has had to drink, but lets him go through without a breathalyzer.
