Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for comment/Gabrielsimon

Gabrielsimon has progressed to removing comments off the talk page that he doesn't like and removing part of the evidence section of the RfC against him. I was hoping you could help watch him and make sure he doesn't do it. Tracing it back and undoing it is getting complicated for me. DreamGuy 18:21, July 27, 2005 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do. This whole mess is a very unpleasant diversion for me, but it's important that the community standards be upheld. Parker Whittle 20:26, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

"witches"

i stil conrtend that witches in the european sense, did not exist in north america until europeans arrived... and as for how they were dealt with, traditionally excecuting people comes from europe, in native america, the worst that can happen to you is banishment. ( for the regions we are speaking of) Gabrielsimon 05:05, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

I understand, Gabriel, and I sympathize with the trust you place in the oral histories you cherish. If you can find works by cultural anthropologists (or other scholars) who have documented the oral histories of your people, you should definitely cite them. I know that you don't mean to come off as belligerent, and I hope you have better luck in the future. The best advice you've been given is to study and understand the policies.

okay. check out mystisism for a n editwherei wasnt reverted forever. :) Gabrielsimon 05:24, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Actually, I wasn't kidding

I'll drop the sockpuppet thing on the RFC page for now since it's probably not helping. But just so you know, the similiarities are IMO astounding. This new user jumped right into the same fights the other user had been in. This seems rather informative. However, you make a good point, and in the interest of good faith I've apologized to the new user and advised him not to worry at all about other editors or their RFCs. Sorry if I've over-reacted; I'm actually rooting for GS to come out of his RFAr without a ban. However this latest may well hurt (or kill) his chances, IF puppetry is really happening.

Doh! I truned myself into a liar about not posting on this topic anymore on the RFC page. However I felt it best to clarify my thinking. Anyway, thanks for trying to keep people from jumping to conclusions. Altho the evidence seems strong to me, you're absolutely correct that we need to assume good faith on the part of the new user.

droiving away

looks liek Dreamguy and others drove Ketrovin away, if you look at the last thing on his talk page. Gabrielsimon 23:42, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

Darth Vader

Thank you for resolving the dispute. Copperchair 05:29, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

bowing out

was it something I said? FuelWagon 21:19, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

No worries, FuelWagon, I respect your edits, and I support your position. I just don't feel like I'm contributing meaningfully to the discussion, anymore. We have an editor that seems to be in fight-or-flight mode, and I'm hoping that it might calm things down if I'm not involved. --Parker Whittle 21:55, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

OK. just checking. Sometimes I can overdo it. I'm trying not to overdo it, but sometimes I do. ;/ Anyway, if nothing else, I'll call you on the bat phone if there's trouble in gotham city. ;) FuelWagon 02:06, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Religion and schizotypy

You wrote the following:

"I've dug up some good primary and secondary (reputable) sources on the link between schizotypy and religious belief, spiritual experience, and what not. I've offered to clean it up in the comments attached to my vote, above. Either way the vote goes, the info will find a home. Parker Whittle 04:12, 8 August 2005 (UTC)"

Is this statement no longer operative? Hipocrite 14:11, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

It is still operative. I've completed reviewing the research that I found, and I'm well along in the notes compilation stage. I've recently been embroiled in the conflict at Creation science, but I am definitely still working on the Religion and schizotypy article. --Parker Whittle 14:56, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Compliments

De nouveau mon ami, vous offrez tentatives brillants et nobles au site pour élever la barre à poinant et l'impartialité érudite. C'est une chose à savoir, c'est un autre aider des autres pour se savoir. Merci pour tous les efforts pour élever la norme, abaisser l'animosité, et rappeler tout l' « ego » pourquoi ils sont sur le site. 65.26.110.216 01:10, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

methodological naturalism

Your comments would be appreciated. FuelWagon 21:07, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
