Polygamy article
I noticed that you got your timeline together - I would propose copying the language you want to change to the talk page - making the change there - asking for comments, and then replacing it in the article after discussion (or if no one objects after a day or two). I will reread the article in anticipation of working with you to get a NPOV version put in. Also - if a revert war reappears - the best course of action is to allow other editors who agree with you do the 2nd revert, etc, so that it is clear to any admins who is trying to force a non-concensus version of the article.

- I very much appreciate the way in which you have tried to positively affect the hostile situation. (Also, yes, it was very exhausting putting that timeline together!)
- I believe there is a bigger problem going on right now which would make it impossible to have a more honestly legitimate and informed "consensus" anyway, as long as the sneaky vandals remain. I posted my concern about the issue today in the polygamy TALK page:
- Solution Needed for Gangs of Sneaky Vandals
- (We should not reward bad behavior or allow misinformation)
- Now another sneaky vandal, Nereocystis, has re-appeared to pretend to have a "consensus" with the sneaky vandalism of Ghostintheshell.
- Among the issues I listed in that latest post I made to TALK about all this, Nereocystis has previously tried to unnecessarily sneak their anti-polygamists' hostile underage agenda into the polygamy wiki, while seeking to "distract" me as they battled for another sneaky vandalism issue about that particular case. An example of this can be seen as part of what I had to correct here.
- Now Nereocystis "returns" back to the polygamy wiki to give their "consensus" with a fellow sneaky vandal, Ghostintheshell. You will note what Nereocystis has now recently said in reply to one of your posts in TALK. When you rightly noted in "Young Marriages"' the context that marrying teenage girls was common in the 1800s, I quickly affirmed your excellent point and explained how only a hostile anti-polygamy POV would otherwise try to hint that such an irrelevant statement was pertinent. But now the returning sneaky vandal, Nereocystis, has again tried to push the underage slant in their reply to you about that.
- The polygamy wiki article is now such a mess. It needs to go back to the original STATUS QUO that occurred in either your first Rvs or my Rv-of-your-Rvs. Then we can all begin again, starting in TALK. That STATUS QUO method from the Wiki Guidelines for controversial topics is all that I had sought from the beginning of the entire ordeal. But it is clear that the two sneaky vandals want only the desctruction of the polygamy wiki, disqualifying them from even really being counting as valid "opinions" of "consensus" anymore anyway. You will note that neither of the two has ever made even one single attempt to accomodate anything with me. That defines and proves their intentions best. So, to allow them now is only to reward, welcome, and invite more bad behavior.
- I am very grateful, though, to your seeking to help in this very frustrating situation. - Researcher 18:18, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
Please use Talk:Polygamy#Disputed
Please use the Disputed section of Talk:Polygamy#Disputed. This will allow us to reach an agreement on the content of the Polygamy page. Please do not make changes in controversial areas when we are trying to make changes. I have repeatedly requested that you use this section. So far, you have refused. Please change your practices.

Glad to help
Sure, I'll be glad to be your MA for the Polygamy issue. I start a new (real-world) job tomorrow so it might be a couple of days before I have time to get up to speed on everything, but I'll do my best! Kurt Weber 21:44, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
