As an admin I have reviewed your request and I decline to take any action against Earl King. His contribs do not amount to harassment and you would be better advised to take some of his advice on board than to reject it as hostility. Questioning you as having a potential ] is an entirely reasonable thing to do, under the circumstances. Suggest closing this thread. ] ] 19:38, 19 July 2012 (UTC) | |||
:The ANI was closed before I had a chance to respond to your comment. Kim, your suggestion to close the ANI was hasty and erroneous. Earl's comments constitute very poor behavior and create a nasty, ugly atmosphere and environment on the Talk page of ]. On the talk page, Earl discussed the material in my user page, which is totally irrelevant, because WP policies clearly limit the discussion on article Talk pages to focus exclusively on the topic of the article. As if discussing my user page is not bad enough, he took the extremely offensive step of copy-pasting a box from my user page onto the article talk page. He then called me "a member advocate of Zeitgeist" "Your user box states explicitly that you advocate for Zeitgeist," "your changes which as you being an advocate, seem biased and opinionated instead of neutral and accurate." Earl has repeatedly accused me on acting in bad fate, which is a direct personal attack. And he repeated his attacks three more times on the current, on-going DRN for the Zeitgeist movement. This is harassment, pure and simple. My edits on the article were based on an editorial (content) disagreement with him and were not sufficient reason for him to attack me personally, and are definitely not "an entirely reasonable thing to do, under the circumstances" as you erroneously and incorrectly say. As you can see from the talk page, the specific content dispute between Earl and I was resolved practically instantly when editor Bbb23, who has firmly established his credentials as a fair, impartial, and reasonable arbiter on several preceding content disputes on the article, intervened again. I fully accepted all of Bbb23's recommendations and reverted all my edits. Kim, just because Earl, Raeky, and AndyTheGrump together accused me of NPOV and personal attacks, it does not mean it's true. In some cases, such as this, a lone editor is in the right while three, or more, opposing editors are wrong. Earl has a history of harassing me on the talk page and a history of automatically reverting all my edits in knee-jerk fashion, despite the fact all my edits are always fully supported by reliable secondary and primary sources. And you may want to read AndyTheGrump's ugly, mean-spirited, disgusting, invective-filled, offensive, childish and juvenile comments on the current DRN regarding ]. I'm sorry to say this but you did not do a good job on this AN/I and your suggestion to close the ANI after fully justifying Earl's poor behavior was premature and incorrect. You still have a long way to go before you become a good administrator. My best wishes for you, I hope you continue to grow and learn and develop as an administrator, and especially learn from your mistakes. Take good care and regards, ] (]) 22:43, 19 July 2012 (UTC) |

As it relates to RfA the point is now mute. If for some reason you would like me to do this simply for your needs, I will but only if it is requested outside the RfA. The internal matters are closed and this is why I haven't reacted to it. Thank you - My76Strat (talk) 02:58, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Help NeededHi, Thanks for your help before with an abusive user. Can something more been done as he is still posting on my talk page and accusing me of being another user. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.242.91.165 (talk) 09:52, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Sorry, I have just realised that you haven't posted a further comment on my talk page but that it was reverted by 60.242.91.165 (talk). I'm sorry I suggested that you had re-issued your warning. Castlemate (talk) 11:25, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Kim, thank you for being so reasonable about this issue. May I just point out that this editor was not blocked because of anything he had said to me or because of anything I had said to him but because of his attacks on others. If you look at his deleted talk page posts this will be illustrated. I am a completely different issue but he, in his different guises, has been behaving this way for many years. Sorry for the passive agressive tone but DXRAW / ExtraDry brings it out in me. I am in this case responding to your message on my talk page but will not address you on this matter on your talk page again. Thanks and I will leave it in your hands. Castlemate (talk) 11:27, 3 July 2012 (UTC) Wheel of the YearGreetings! OK, I'm confused. On the one hand, I've seen you do some really outstanding work on articles related to Wicca and Neopaganism in general, but you have described "Esbat" on the Wheel of the Year page as That flies in the face of pretty much everything I've seen on the subject in my twenty-plus years of involvement with Wicca. A Sabbat is one of the eight spokes of the Wheel, while an Esbat is a full or new moon, or other rite. In fact, the article itself says this in the section "Eight Festivals.." So I'm not sure what's going on here. I have substantial respect for your work, so I thought I'd bring this up on your Talk page before I went ahead and Got Bold on you {grin} *Septegram*Talk*Contributions* 05:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
AN/IAs an admin I have reviewed your request and I decline to take any action against Earl King. His contribs do not amount to harassment and you would be better advised to take some of his advice on board than to reject it as hostility. Questioning you as having a potential COI is an entirely reasonable thing to do, under the circumstances. Suggest closing this thread. Kim Dent-Brown 19:38, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
