Vic Toews and the IPs

FWIW, the two IPs which reverted your edits on Vic Toews over the last couple of days turned out to be Tor nodes. One's already been blocked and I've reported the other. Just a heads-up, there. --Calton | Talk 13:51, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Katharine Reimer

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Katharine Reimer, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not and Misplaced Pages:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Misplaced Pages or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Israel-Palestine sanctions

Hello,

I've responded to your proposals here. Comments are welcome. CJCurrie (talk) 00:29, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I responded and added a few more proposals. -- tariqabjotu 03:48, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Mediation

I have proposed a mediation on the underlying issue at New antisemitism. The request is here. It's up to you whether or not you want to participate. I am asking everyone who has been extensively involved in discussions on the talk page. *** Crotalus *** 05:22, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles

This arbitration has been closed and the final decision is available at the link above. The area of conflict in this case shall be considered to be the entire set of Arab-Israeli conflict-related articles, broadly interpreted. An uninvolved administrator, after issuing a warning, may impose sanctions including blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; bans on any editing related to the topic or its closely related topics; restrictions on reverts or other specified behaviors; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project. The Committee shall convene a working group, composed of experienced Wikipedians in good standing, and task it with developing a comprehensive set of recommendations for resolving the pervasive problem of intractable disputes centered around national, ethnic, and cultural areas of conflict. The group shall be appointed within two weeks from the closure of this case, and shall present its recommendations to the Committee no later than six months from the date of its inception. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Disputed images and Misplaced Pages:No original research

Hi CJCurrie,

I've proposed an amendment to Misplaced Pages:No original research that would strengthen (or more accurately, reiterate) the requirement of editors to reliably source interpretations of images in articles. This would particularly apply to depictions of allegorical or symbolic artworks or artifacts, where the meaning was not immediately clear or was subject to differing interpretations. You can see the text of the proposed amendment at Misplaced Pages talk:No original research#Interpretation of images.

Another editor involved in the discussion has suggested providing an example of "an actual ongoing dispute to illustrate the problem". I know you're active in editing or monitoring articles in controversial subject areas, and I was wondering if you were aware of any such ongoing disputes. It would specifically have to concern something like an illustration of unclear meaning which editors were disputing what it represented, maybe because of a lack of reliable sourcing about the image itself or about its meaning. If you've come across anything like this scenario, could you please chip in at Misplaced Pages talk:No original research#Interpretation of images? -- ChrisO (talk) 23:00, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for mediation accepted

A Request for Mediation to which you were are a party has been accepted. You can find more information on the case subpage, Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/New antisemitism. For the Mediation Committee, WjBscribe 18:45, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Communist Party candidiates, 1981 Ontario provincial election

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Communist Party candidiates, 1981 Ontario provincial election, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Communist Party candidiates, 1981 Ontario provincial election.

Regarding Marc Emery

There is both evidence in the media and on file by lawmakers that Emery did, indeed sell cannabis seeds which are to all accounts drugs. He was a merchant of marijuana seeds by way of the Internet, and made millions of dollars. All personal thoughts are aside from this issue, and I will merge your edit with mine. There are no personal matters to this... please remember to keep neutrality on Misplaced Pages with your contributions. This would not classify as 'slanted' text. —Preceding unsigned comment added by E1foley (talk • contribs) 04:39, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Follow-up: What one calls a 'terrorist' has much to do with perspective. A person who merchants drugs is a drug dealer. A person who delivers milk is a milkman, a person who delivers mail is a mailman, a person who educates is an educator. This is not an example of slanted text, nor am I calling the subject a terrorist. There is evidence all over the place that he did indeed sell drugs, accept the profits, and file taxes with the profits. A man or woman who deals drugs is a drug dealer. We can argue this, but the fundamental principle of the term can be determined by any dictionary. Please stop vandalizing this article and keep your perspective to a neutral contribution.

Some have called you a drug dealer? Have you ever sold pot or seeds to somebody else? If you have, you can ask anybody without bias... you're a drug dealer. If that IS the case, don't use Misplaced Pages to find sympathy amongst others who have found an idol who has set an example for such a group - as such a notion is illegal and immoral. (Granted this isn't about morals) It would, however, give away your position on this argument and invalidate your contributions for this particular topic.--E1foley (talk) 07:36, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

My point, however, is that the term drug dealer carries particular connotations, and that describing Emery in these terms violates WP:NPOV. Everything else is a secondary consideration, at best. CJCurrie (talk) 19:54, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Rick Boychuk

I have nominated Rick Boychuk, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Rick Boychuk.

Thank you for your time. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 07:10, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Rick Boychuk

Unless this politician has risen above the level of city councilman, or has done something notable or infamous while in this office, it is highly unlikely he will meet notability standards, no matter how much you write. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 07:18, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Three articles in the local newspaper does not make him notable. Virtually every city council member can get thta over their political career. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 07:37, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Unless he's done something to make him stand out from other politicians of that level of office, I still don't think even two dozen article will do the job. I work for a newspaper, and we mention just about every member of the city councils of our area communities at least once a month, but that doesn't make them notable. Boychuk is just another city councilman, unless you can show me how he stands out from others. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 07:41, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Criticism of Richard Warman

You removed what I believe were valid entries in support of the of criticism of Richard Warman.

You claim that the entries are not "encyclopedic". Please explain what you mean, provide an example, and a Misplaced Pages reference in support of your position. Note also that one of the references was to another article in Misplaced Pages.

I am going to assume for the moment that you are acting in good faith, and will not censor valid criticism. Then there should not be too much difficulty in finding criticism of which you approve, since Richard Warman's complaints before the CHRC are currently one of the most widely discussed topics on Canadian blogs. I provided just two references, whereas there are hundreds of others.

The entries you removed are:

Critics have charged that Warman abuses the intent of the Canadian Human Rights Act by personally appearing as the plaintiff in the majority of CHRA section 13 "hate speech" cases which have been brought before the Commission, a former employer of Warman. - - Critics further charge that many CHRC "hate speech" complaints such as Warman's have had a chilling effect on the human right to freedom of expression.

I look forward to your prompt, reasoned response. Thank you. Freedom Fan (talk) 08:42, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Election candidate lists

I've been mulling an idea I'd like to run by you, which could potentially provide a workable solution to the current set of flaws in creating merged candidate lists for Canadian elections — specifically, the problem created when people have stood as candidates in multiple elections.

Basically, what I'm thinking about is that instead of creating lists organized by election, perhaps we could organize lists by letter instead. So instead of having to copy-and-paste Gerry McIntaggart, frex, into multiple election articles, instead he'd be in just one list, perhaps named something like "List of New Democratic Party politicians - M" or something to that effect. That way there'd be just one target article, and all the relevant articles would thus link to the same place. This would also have the benefit of eliminating the by-election problem — Rebecca Coad, for example, would go on a C list instead of a by-year list that's technically the wrong place for her.

Do you think this might be a potential solution, or does it just create other problems? Bearcat (talk) 00:52, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

New antisemitism mediation

Heya CJCurrie.

I would first like to apologise on behalf of the Mediation Committee for the delay in this case being dealt with, which is due to a shortage of available mediators. I have expressed interest in taking this case to help with the backlog and to assess my nomination to join the committee. As i am not currently a member it is common practice to for the involved parties to consent to mediation of an RfM from a non-committee member. To give your consent for me to act as mediator for this case please sign as you have for the acceptance of the case on the case page. I look forward to working with you and finding a solution to the dispute.

Mediation Update

Just to let you all know, the case has been started. I have created a little navbox for you to navigate between pages and will be expanded as the case goes on so that its easier for you to navigate. The first page you need to visit in this case is here so you can give youre opening statement. There i have left a few questions for you all to answer. For those that have been busy and unable to confirm their participation in the mediation, they are welcome to join the mediation at any stage.

I can be contacted in several ways in the event you need to. I am normally present on the wikipedia-en, wikipedia-medcab and wiki-hurricanes IRC channels at some point between 15:00 UTC and as late 02:00 UTC depending on college and real life commitments. To find these channels and instructions on how to access IRC go to WP:IRC. Throughout the day, even when i am in college, feel free to email me using the email tool or by emailing the email address on my user page or both to make sure. You can also leave a message on my talk page which again ill do my upmost to reply to as soon as i can. Seddon69 (talk) 20:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Heya. I noticed that you hadn't left your statement here regarding the New Antisemitism case. Its important for the success of this mediation that you stay involved in this otherwise i cannot guarantee that your views will be taken into consensus agreed upon by the parties. I hope that you will be able to participate soon. Seddon69 (talk) 22:58, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

There is nor formal time limit but the sooner we get this done the sooner the case will be over with and get to some sort of agreement :) Look foreward to reading your statement. Seddon69 (talk) 09:01, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

The mediation im getting rolling as its been a long time waiting so i think its best to get moving. Most of the mediation will be on the talk (discussion) page. so make sure its in your watchlist. Seddon69 (talk)

New Antisemitism Mediation

I think thats its time we got moving. A couple of the points have been raised before and felt they were the foundations to the dispute:

• Firstly whether the picture can be confirmed to have been taken in the rally in San Fransisco.
• Secondly to come to an agreement on what new antisemitism is and then to decide what the image is depicting and whether it purely illustrates New Antisemitism or whether it also addresses other issues which could be confused with new antisemitism by new readers.
• If we cant confirm the those then we need to find a viable alternative.

A point i would like to raise is that at some point a lead image might need to be found if this article got to FA. The image in question is not free and couldn't be put on the main page with this article as todays FA. Although not an immediate point a long term solution might wish to be found so that this article could feature on the main page with a viable alternative.

Does anyone have access to Lexis Nexis? It might help as a search on the network could uncover something not readily available on the internet. Reliable sources that use the image would be helpful. Do you reckon that there would anyway of finding third party images that might possibly contain the poster/placard? Also i would be grateful if images of other placards at that rally could be found to find whether this was a small minority at this rally or perhaps a larger group.

Whilst that is being done i wanted to find out on what the consensus view is on what New Antisemitism is? I have read the article and the previous discussion and attempted to get a proper understanding but i wanted to ensure that this was current.

PS any sources you find can you please post in the section at the top of the mediation talk page. Seddon69 (talk) 16:10, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Excuse me, what do you mean by "Kahanist"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mazeartist (talk • contribs) 00:53, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, the Jewish Press had Rabbi Meir Kahane as a longtime columnist, but to label the newspaper as Kahanist is like shooting a messenger for telling the truth. The article accurately describes Carter's biblical misinterpretations. Furthermore, the AJC is considered to be a mainstream organization. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mazeartist (talk • contribs) 01:07, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

The Jewish Press is not a "small publication," it is the most widely read Jewish newspaper in the US. I understand that you are looking for other souces dealing with Carter's tapes, but other newspapers did not cover it, only the Jewish Press did.

Following discussion at the mediation talk page, i would like to bring up a suggestion that until the end of the mediation to remove both images from the article. There is currently no real consensus on the images so in the interests of fairness it seems best to simply have no images. If you have any suggestions or comments then please come to the mediation talk page to be discussed. The discussion will be open for around 5 days if there are no problems. But the discussion will go on if there is ongoing discussion. ŠξÞÞøΛ 00:53, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully this all works out well, I have zero intention of leaning towards any one side in this dispute, and I only care about getting it taken care of. Wizardman 18:52, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Muhammad al-Durrah

Hi CJCurrie, just as a reminder, there is currently a 0RR (no revert) restriction on this article. but you seem to have been making some revert-like changes to the lead. Some of these were definitely fine, as you were removing unsourced information (though your edit summary could have been a bit more clear). This current exchange with Wikifan12345 is starting to veer a bit much into "edit war" territory though. As such, could I please ask you to be careful of this, and for your next edits to be more in the nature of changing information, rather than just reverting? Thanks, Elonka 00:37, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Elonka, I think it's worth pointing out that the "alleged" terminology is something that a couple of editors have been trying to force into the article for some time. There is no consensus to use it, and as far as I know Wikifan12345 has not participated in any discussions until now. The use of "reported" vs "alleged" has been discussed many times before, and Wikifan12345's very aggressive attitude on the talk page indicates rather clearly where he is coming from. -- ChrisO (talk) 00:52, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Muhammad al-Durrah reverting

Please do not revert any more of my work on this page. The article is subject to 0RR, and your writing "not a revert" in an edit summary does not change that you are, indeed, reverting. This edit of yours reverted this edit of mine just half an hour after I'd made it. SlimVirgin 08:42, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

PGFTU

I recommended someone start this article and your research is comprehensive beyond my wildest expectations - yet comprehensive as an encyclopedia entry should be. Where did you get your background on this issue? Were you previously familiar with the PGFTU? I thought I was until I read what you had gathered.

Another source you or I should probably add is Yosef Sayigh. He writes about the Sumud Period and the funding of trade unions. I have a little bit written up about it, but need to find the time to insert it.LamaLoLeshLa (talk) 17:18, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

ZionismOnTheWeb

Hi CJCurrie,

As you are aware there was a discussion you initiated about both myself and Zionism On The Web here . Following this, and with clear indications that there were objections to your proposal to declare Zionism On The Web an unreliable source, a non notable source, etc. you seem to have gone and deleted all reference to it from Misplaced Pages anyway. As you are aware, I raise a complaint about this in my evidence here .

As the case was already closing and arbcom members didn't look at it, I'd like to ask you to please go and undo the changes you made. There was no agreement for the removals and you used different "reasons" many false (I've documented this), for different removals after discussion explained that mass removal were not appropriate. This approach may look like a small change to anyone looking at an individual page, but IMHO it is a mass vandalism spread across many pages.

I realise things may have been heated during the arbitration, however I would like to see this resolved and have no interesting in getting into an edit war with you over hundreds of articles (most of which I had not seen until I sent through your deletions after noticing the first few references vanish). That said I want valid reference restored, as we discussed before only a small handfull were placed by me... but you have left Misplaced Pages worse off with these edits.

Please drop me a response on my talk page, thanks. Oboler (talk) 12:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

My response was to remove the pejorative speculations regarding me yet again. If you think "it's not essential one way or the other" then don't add it. Focus on the article, and stop speculating about me. Jayjg 04:04, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

The matter before us =

You wrote on the talk page of the apartheid AFD: "Perhaps we should move on from epic battles of the past and focus on the matter before us." I completely agree. If you delete the references to epic AFDs of the past, that'll be a great way to demonstrate that you also walk the walk. --Leifern (talk) 18:27, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

You can't "move on" from something if you don't know something about it's history. And history is sadly relevant here. CJCurrie (talk) 22:01, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
