I chose to edit the encyclopedia under the name PalestineRemembered because it was glaringly obvious that WP had been infiltrated by people with a serious agenda. Prove me wrong, if you can.
I chose this name because doing so was "honest". People like you know exactly where I am coming from. If you're fair-minded, that makes judgements on my posts easier, not more difficult.
I only post on one topic because I prefer to give away nothing about my real identity. As a precaution it's useless, the Onionists have vast resources available to track down and harrass people like me. They can again ring prominent people in my neighbourhood and tell outrageous lies about what I've posted - but they can no longer pretend to be an individual who just happened to realise it was me.
None of the above need impact on my standing amongst other Wikipedians (though when it's combined with only passable skills as a word-smith, I may simply be ignored anyway!).
There are potentially two good reasons for changing my name (as I was belatedly asked to do). Perhaps postings as "PalestineRemembered" could impact on people's impressions of WP. Might the passer-by be misled into thinking that WP is not dominated by Onionists?
Secondly, WP depends on donations, not advertisements (for which I greatly respect the guy who created this resource). Could my name damage WP and stop it raising money? It's not my place to say, but I'd think it somewhat unlikely.
Incidentally, until I started posting here as PR I was only vaguely aware of the web-site of the same name. I've used almost nothing from the PR web-site, much of the historical material I've attempted to add comes from the Israeli media or from Israeli individuals, and much of the rest from mainstream western media.
