Hi Wisden17! Thank you for taking part in my RfA! Ultimately, it ended with a final result of (62/23/7), and with only 73% support, no consensus was achieved. Nevertheless, I will definitely look into your comments and improve for the future. G.He 21:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC) |

Thanks!
Hey Wisden!! Want to thank you for Opus Dei mediation. Just checked mediation procedure, and there's no more to wait for. Thought all the while there's a formal ruling coming out or something. Hope I was not a pain in the neck. ;) Truly appreciated your work, Wisden! Ndss 14:04, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
David L Cook Article/Wikipediatrix
Wisden17, we are having a continual problem with one of the editors by the name of Wikipediatrix. She continues to go through our contributions and makes edits to everything that we have posted. There is not a problem with that and we invite her contributions, however she gets way to personal into them. She tags everything and does not give any reason of why she is tagging something. She has had many run ins with other editors and administrators about her editing. They have told her to stop tagging without explaining why she is doing so. She ignores this admonishment and continues to do so. When we asak her why she tags things she goes on to tell us to stop berating her and just make the changes? How can one do this? We have cited things and she has gone right behind us and removed them and asked for cites again. This last time we edited the David L Cook article and took the stuff out that she had tagged and she went right back added the edits back onto the article and then removed them again? We are at our witts end with this woman. She has turned this into a personal issue. She is not nice to anyone who questions her and finally, she does not explain herself or her edits and tags. This is not the purpose of Misplaced Pages. This is supposed to be a community that works together. If she sees something wrong what would it hurt her to be a good editor and fix it? Not her! She tags it and then gets upset when questioned. We need help. We would prefer to have her blocked from our articles so that she cannot continue to do this to us. We have no problem with someone wanting to edit or give suggestions, we just do not have time to continue to bicker with this woman who is seemingly on a Rambo quest. Thank you for any help you can give us. IAMAS Corporation 15:52 22, Aug 2006 (UTC)
- You've been mis-led by this user's signature. (User:Iamascorp appears to be a rôle account, and the people there are using a link to an article about the company in the main article namespace as the account's signature.) The article in question is David L. Cook, and Wikipediatrix is requesting that sources be cited using the usual mechanisms. Please don't advise editors to simply remove source citation requests without citing sources. We insist upon sources here. Uncle G 00:30, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
I have not mislead anyone. They are taking an entry where I refered this article over to our publicity department in order to make sure I did not imput a personal POV. Wikipediatrix said that the article read like a press release done by Mr. Cook's press agent. I never said this was an issue about the IAMAS Corporation, I said in the heading it was about the David L Cook article in question. As far as citing, I have cited and Wikipediatrix has removed any cites I have put on. I do not have a problem with her asking for cited material, what I do have a problem with is her bad attitude and failure to explain her tags. Misplaced Pages is here for us to work as a community and if you see an article needs something don't just tag stuff without explaination. If you are going to take so much time to tag something why don't you take the same time to help fix it? I think that makes a little more sense. IAMAS Corporation 02:12, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Happy Birthday!
The Misplaced Pages Birthday Committee wishes you a very happy birthday! Enjoy your special day. |

Mediation advice
Hi, awhile back you said to let you know if I needed a hand. On Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Talk:Ross Jeffries, one of the involved parties, WoodenBuddha (talk | contribs), appears to be on wikibreak, and subsequently has not replied to the request for consent (or non-consent) to me mediating I left on his/her talk page on July 19, 2006. One of the other parties, Masssiveego (talk | contribs), is understandably in a hurry to begin mediation, and asked that mediation either begin by September 5, 2006, or that the case be closed. Misplaced Pages:Mediation#What_will_happen_when_you_ask_for_mediation_.3F states that "If any party fails to agree, the mediation will be rejected, as mediation cannot take place without the agreement of all parties." However, I think (some) progress could be made even without WoodenBuddha, who does not appear (at least not that I have noticed) to be involved in any of the secondary issues. As for the primary issues, WoodenBuddha and SecondSight seem to be more or less in agreement. So, I was wondering which you think would be best - closing the case, or starting without WoodenBuddha? Thanks! Armedblowfish (talk|mail|contribs) 15:57, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Mediation advice
Dear Wisden17, I would like to ask for your advice regarding the following wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/Brahma_Kumaris_World_Spiritual_University It is about the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University. There has been plenty of talk and discussions in the "discussion" page about this. The problem is that the original authors of this page dislike Brahma Kumaris. These authors had a negative experience with this Spiritual institution. One of the main authors if not the main author is: User:195.82.106.244 This user currently runs a website : brahmakumaris.info which again is against the BK institution.
Even though members of BK have attempted to work with User:195.82.106.244 as you could see in the discussion page, it has been of no avail. In the meantime, BK (Brahma Kumaris) image is being hurt since this article is being copied by other wiki like sites like answers.com. What we request (as stated in the discussion pages) is for this article to be written without obvious bias and in good faith with the aim of informing the public.
Please advice. Thank you. --avyakt7 21:03, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
