===Alex' Response=== | |||
Catamorphism, not unlikely a sockpuppt of FemVoice (I would rather not believe there are two such ... persons ... around) is of course misrepresenting the situation. It did not start at ] but at ] where both of them kept removing the term "ciswoman" claiming that while it was a redir to ], it was not a word. They prefered to refer to a comparison of ciswomen to cismen (regarding anatomical featues) as one between "women" and "men", hence claiming that transwomen are not "women". When I added the refererence (which was so obvious that any person with a gain of brains would not have needed or requested it) to ], they started to delete it. Obviously this is either a personal matter, although why I don't know, or a transphobic attempt to redefine trans(wo)men as non-(wo)men. Of course a combination is possible. Both are obviously nutcases and vandals, while FemVoice is trying the not-exactly-new stunt of "I did it, therefore I am an expert", Catamorphism is tying, and this is one of the worst jokes I ever saw, a band-new "I screwed one, therefore I am an expert" routine (see edit comment ). Now they have turned to delete even more content from the article, obviously, for all their quoting of policy, the <nowiki>{{fact}}</nowiki>-tag escaped their notice. Hence, obviously, what they say has little merrit, and I just can't be bothered to waste any more time on this. They can have personal vendettas as much as they like, but with me, they are wasting their time. I won't stand for any deletion of content because of it. Same goes for any other article on my watchlist that this terrible duo of vandals will descend on. EOD. -- ] 06:21, 5 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
: The claim that I am a sockpuppet of FemVoice is strange, since FemVoice's first edit was May 26, 2006, and mine was June 30, 2005. I've also never edited ], so your claim about that is false. I'm also not sure what ]'s "I dated a transsexual" comment that you linked to has to do with this mediation request. | |||
::What has the date to do with that? She might be yours. All I see, though, is that there are two stooges in each article which make exactly the same edits and with exactly the same (that is, no) reasons. -- ] 14:47, 5 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
: To clarify, the issue here is that the terms "ciswoman" and "cisman" are being defined, unsourced, in the article on ]. Your comment above has not addressed the need for citations of these definitions. ] 06:50, 5 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
::If you start deleting everything that is not yet sources, then WP will shrink a great deal. Those two words are, obviously, analogously coined to trans(wo)man, and since all the cis- words are coined analogously, what the heck do you need a quote for? That is, if your Google is still broke ... | |||
::This mediation, BTW, is just another way of harassing me, which you and your buddy have been doing ever since I did, on her request, add the content she claimed was missing. Ever since the two of you have been trying to delete it, for no reason whatsover, except maybe a bad case of transphobia, or an unwillingness to live with the existance of a concept that goes over your head. In any case, I am not your shrink, so I don't bother why, I insist you stop it, and I will stop you. You are not the first person who claims they don't like content and try to delete or vandalize it, and you won't be the last. You will have just as much success as the other ones, though. None. And that is the end of this utterly pointless and thoroughly insincere attempt for a "Mediation". I only saw your latest "comments" because accidentally I watched this page. I will remove the watch tag when saving, and that is the last I have to do with this harassment of those two stooges. -- ] 14:47, 5 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
=== FemVoice responce === | |||
AlexR is truly one of a kind. In order of confusion. | |||
1) Sockpuppet | |||
* Catamorphisme is not a sockpuppeet of anyone | |||
* FemVoice is not a sockpuppeet of anyone | |||
* Czolgolz is not a sockpuppeet of anyone | |||
2) The situation did start with ], as a result of AlexR’s misuse of the word ciswoman / cisman on ] and adding it to ] 17:05, 28 May 2006 with the comment (if you missed it so much ...). AlexR even admits adding the reference to ciswoman and cisman in response to my complaints , ‘’First, you complain that it is not in this article, and insult and vandalize in FV, then I put it in here, and then you descend on this article. And AlexR again shows that the term's ciswoman and cisman were added in response to the problems with it being used incorrectly in voice feminization. | |||
3) AlexR is confused when he says ‘’both of them kept removing the term "ciswoman”’’ as Catamorphisme to my knowledge has never been on ]. I double checked the history and I am correct, Catamorphisme has never been on Voice feminization. | |||
4) AlexR misrepresents the history of Voice Feminization and the associated talk page in that in the article the word woman was used and was removed by AlexR and replaced by a ‘’nonword ciswoman’’. (The same goes with cisman and man). Most of the talk on the talk page was about the fact that ciswoman was not a word in ‘’any’’ dictionary and could not be found in google except in a blog. (check google with search of '''ciswoman cisgender''') | |||
5) AlexR is confused the the logic that - since both man and woman are used in the sentence together and since they both have separate definition, but that ciswoman and cisman both point to cisgender and that they are not defined in cisgender (at the time) that AlexR’s changes were incorrect. At about that time AlexR modified them from ciswoman to cisgendered woman and added the corresponding ciswoman into cisgender. AlexR also does not quote me from the article saying ''' CISGENDER May be correct, but CISman and CISwoman are not used at all in Misplaced Pages, except for this article - Correcting to something more common. FemVoice 22:22, 26 May 2006 (UTC)''' | |||
6) AlexR gets off topic, when I showed each of the searches and quoted the usage and the fact that ciswoman is not in common usage ''' Even in cisgender it states "The word is rarely used by people outside communities concerned with transgender issues". That does not mean that it must be used in this article. cisman, ciswoman create confusion and seem to be politically motivated instead of ]. If you intent is to obfuscate the meaning of the information then that will have succeeded. The changes were made to clarify the paragraph, but I will take a moment to think how it can be re-written so that it maintains factually correct information without causing confusion. Until then I will let the phrases stand as the article is unreadable as a whole anyway. FemVoice 11:21, 27 May 2006 (UTC)''' | |||
7) AlexR again says that he added a term that upon research shows that '''ciswoman is not a real word''' according to the definition of wikipedia, since it can not be referenced. And according to wikipedia it was removed and placed in the talk page asking for a reference to which no valid one has ever been supplied. | |||
8) AlexR claims that this is a personal matter, but if you check the user page ] you will see “I used to be quite active in the German Misplaced Pages until I found the climate unfavorable to my health.” That suggests that AlexR was having problems adjusting to the rules of wikipedia there also. | |||
9) AlexR speculats that I am a transphopic individual, when in reality I am one of the leaders in the Transsexual community in my area and regularly attend conferences where I have given talks on ‘Voice feminization’. | |||
10) AlexR says that I have attempted to redefine transwomen when in fact all I have been trying to do is correct AlexR’s improper edits. | |||
11) AlexR complains that we are what we are not – Catamorphisme is obviously a very intelligent woman and I myself am a computer professional. Catamorphisme, FemVoice, and Czolgolz are obviously not vandals and we have tried to deal rationally with AlexR. Whenever we add comments to try to talk to AlexR he tries to hide every attempt at communications by deleting it off of the ] page. | |||
12) AlexR is confused in saying that Catamorphisme says “I screwed one, therefore I am an expert” in that was never said by Catamorphisme, but instead a comment by Czolgolz “(I've known many transsexuals (and even dated one) and never knew anyone to be insulted by the word 'man' or 'woman')” making it ugly when it is in fact an assertion that transwoman would not be offended by being called a woman, nor would a woman for that matter. And low and behold, there is the quote about dating a transsexual. | |||
Not the perverted comment screwing one. | |||
13) AlexR claims that I have not read the policy – I have not read all of the policy, but I have read ] and know “Any edit lacking a source may be removed, but some editors may object if you remove material without giving people a chance to provide references.” I removed the information and placed it in the user talk page asking for a source, knowing full well that the only reason that it was added in the first place was AlexR’s attemp at proving a point. I know full well what the ‘fact’ tag is and that in this case, it is not called for, but the removal of false information is mandated again from ] ‘’’Be careful not to err too far on the side of not upsetting other editors by leaving unsourced information in articles for too long, or at all in the case of information about living people. Jimmy Wales has said of this: "I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative 'I heard it somewhere' pseudo information is to be tagged with a 'needs a cite' tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced.."’’’ AND I FOLLOWED THE GUIDELINES. AlexR on the other hand has said “Since you can not prove it is false” which is not what policy says. | |||
14) AlexR is wrong is saying that he can not be bother to waste any more time on this, because AlexR has wasted others times with comments like (rvv) when in fact if Alex did bother to read the comments, he would find that there was research and it was not vandalism. AlexR is the one that could be called a vandal, but maybe it is just a language problem in that AlexR does not read English very well. | |||
15) AlexR claim that this is a vendeta is not true, and if the edits for each of the pages as well as from the users are looked at, you will see that the only one with constant finger pointing is AlexR. | |||
AND FINALY, for now, AlexR ignores again the fact that ciswoman and cisman have not been sourced. AlexR insists that it is OUR responsibility when in fact Misplaced Pages rules quoted in the talk pages show that it is the person that wishes the information to stay. | |||
And the Mediation is NOT a way to harass, but instead a way to get an editor that is making politically motivated changes to understand that others who have the research have the right to change what it is that was incorrect in the first place. | |||
Oh, more fodder (great)- AlexR says that there are 'two stooges' when in fact there are three. Apparently AlexR does not know how to tell the difference between Catamorphisme and Czolgolz. They both are in separate articles and it seems that I am the only one that crossed over between the two. But AlexR seems to find it easy to say that 'two' are causing the problem instead of 'three'. Or instead of 'one'. When I first came here, I figured I didn't know so I had to read, and read, and read and everything that I read said that I was correct. It was very hard for me to delete the text, but that is what it said to do in how to be a good Wikipedian. So I did. It said not to revert more than three times, AlexR ignores that rule also and put it to exactly the way that he feels it should be and there is not a comment about it in the talk page. | |||

AlexR says that if you deleted everything that is not yet sourced, but fails to provide a source when one is requested because there is not one to be found. I searched, and could not find it anywhere, which is the reason that the incorrect information was deleted. I would have added a source, if I had found one. AlexR seems to like to mix up two different ideas when talking and try to defend what is being talked about how the words were coined, but can not provide a reference as to when or how they were coined. And then goes to explain that the word is obvious, so why do you need a reference to add a new word into the wikipedia. Alex defends the creation of a new word by saying "Those two words are, obviously, analogously coined to trans(wo)man, and since all the cis- words are coined analogously, what the heck do you need a quote for?" when wikipedia says "- - - One of the keys to writing good encyclopedia articles is to understand that they should refer only to facts, assertions, theories, ideas, claims, opinions, and arguments that have already been published by reputable publishers. - - -" It would seem that the rules do not have to apply for AlexR. | |||
When AlexR says that this mediation is a way of harassing - AlexR forgets to explain all of the uses of vulgarities and disparagement that has been used against not only the three of us, but many others in a long stream. You see, when I found out that the total history of all edits for any particular person could be looked at, I started reading AlexR's edit history and found that AlexR is no stranger to mediation. | |||
I especially like the one where AWilliamson explains that AlexR is behaving like a sockpuppet and to finally ban AlexR as a "troll". I will have to find this user and let them know of what AlexR is doing now and if he would like to survey the edits that are happing and the fairness of those edits. | |||
When AlexR says that I requested to have information added to wikipedia, it is a blatant fabrication. If you check, you will see that it is in response to a loosing argument where AlexR finally realized that he made a serious mistake added false information to wikipedia. Not knowing that I was reading every entry that AlexR was making and saw it immediately. I did not do anything about it till I had my research in order and then I removed the information and put a comment into the talk page like you are suppose to do. | |||
AlexR fails to understand that there is indeed a reason why we are trying to delete the entry. It is a blatant fabrication and as the above information points out AlexR has no interest in putting information that requires any kind of research into wikipedia, but instead would prefer conjecture instead. | |||
When AlexR says "Ever since the two of you have been trying to delete it, for no reason whatsover" what this person fails to realize is that everything about this was documented in the talk page in what I hoped even an idiot could understand. I guess I misjudged AlexR's intelligence. | |||
And calling me 'transphobic' - please! That is an insult of the first order and does not even deserve a response. | |||
AlexR - This is not about me - the mediation is two/three to one against you. It is three people that when it is looked at are rational and trying to coddle what can only be described as a political activist with intent to push their mindset above all others. If you would take the time to read everything that has been written and consider the possibility that you are wrong, you would see that you are making a fool of yourself, and I am letting you. | |||
If you insist that I stop trying to ''improve'' wikipedia and let you destroy with political garbage the written work here, you are sadly mistaken. | |||
AlexR! I have tried to give you the links to show you that not only are your claims unjustified, but that your use of the word ''VANDALIZE'' is also incorrect. Others have told you that as well, and you insist that you are right. Wouldn't you think that since you are getting the same thing said to you that you might be wrong? | |||
What are you? You set yourself up as a holy person that will succeed and make a mockery of mediation? You will ignore the comments that you do not want to hear? You will only believe what you want so as to protect what? This is an electronic enclycopidia and not a | |||
