Jewishness, Miliband, etc.
A note to those interested in the current kerfuffle about Jewishess, particularly as it relates to Ed Miliband. There's all sorts of nonsense speculating about the motives of people who want him to be identified as Jewish; much of this is summarized as "Jew-tagging", a rather unsavory term. Here's my motivation: I am interested mainly in good arguments/reasons, and the reasons adduced by people who oppose me on this question are really quite poor. When I see a poor argument, I am often interested in explaining why it is poor. On this particular issue, it is a matter of scholarly competence: I have published in peer-reviewed journals on this issue and am quite confident in knowing what I'm talking about. I've been here long enough to know that scholars are usually treated poorly when editing Misplaced Pages on the basis of their own expertise -- we're all equal here, heh heh. So, fine -- except that it feeds my motivation to pursue the issue. I am by no means on a campaign to "tag" large numbers of BLP subjects as Jewish; again, my main impetus w/rt Miliband is that the arguments of some contributors here are so woefully misinformed.

Personal attacks
"These examples are not exhaustive. Insulting or disparaging an editor is a personal attack regardless of the manner in which it is done. When in doubt, comment on the article's content without referring to its contributor at all." GeorgeLouis (talk) 03:36, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
Voluntary WP:Interaction ban request
I have asked you previously and you have refused - as you still appear to be focusing on my contributions please reconsider and accept my offer? A voluntary WP:Interaction ban would be a good resolution to our long term dispute - I have decided to request arbitration with you if you refuse - If you reject my offer, I am going to collect all your historic and recent diffs in regards to me here User:Youreallycan_/Nomoskedasticity - regards - Youreallycan 22:48, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
- I assume this has something to do with my reverting that edit to categories on Miliband? It's unfortunate that you see this as evidence of my being "focused" on you; that article has been on my watchlist for a long time. You seem to find it all upsetting, and I'm sorry for that, but I don't think it constitutes a reason to agree to an interaction ban. I do not consider myself in dispute with you.

- You have been in dispute with me for over two years - do you really want all the diffs and all the raise in disruption that will cause more than an IBan ? Please simply accept the long term dispute and agree voluntary now? Youreallycan 23:02, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
