Prostitution article
Just so you know, "my esteemed colleague" is not used ironically! --BoogaLouie (talk) 16:17, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- No sweat. I understood, and understand. Binksternet (talk) 16:32, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- PS. You know more about Misplaced Pages than I, but I'm going to presume to try and give some advice, which I hope will not be offensive. I think it might be useful to think of these issues as somewhat akin to WP:BLP, in that just as you have to be more careful what you say about a living person than a dead one, so you have to have to be more careful with a country and its culture than with ... a lot of other stuff in wikipedia. If you do editing that is percieved as anti-Iran by Iranian editors I don't think you are going to like what happens. Kurdo can push buttons like no one else but whatever you do please don't get an attitude about Iran. -- Sincerely BoogaLouie (talk) 19:46, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- You mean don't immolate myself in the flames of the consortium of pro-Iran Wikipedians? Okay, I will try not to. I'm not anti-Iran, not at all. I'm pro-truth and pro-NPOV. If emotional reactions are keeping pro-Iran editors from allowing a neutral portrayal, one that includes unfavorable viewpoints from reliable published sources, then those emotions are not conducive to good Misplaced Pages practices. It would be a mistake to let those emotions reign over intellectual objectivity.
- Be assured I do not think your advice is offensive. I'll try not to fall on my sword. Binksternet (talk) 20:00, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- This comment by Xavexgoem gives me hope in an eventual solution. Binksternet (talk) 20:53, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Note to reviewing admins:
- Editor did not archive their previous block and related material, as suggested in this summary: . Previous uw-block is at , per AN/I thread here: . Brought to my attention here, and for context:
Binksternet. Either you:
- followed Kurdo to Prostitution in Iran (Kurdo's first appearance on Jan 3 , yours 4 hours later on Jan 4
- read Irredentism, saw Munci at the top of that page's history – despite your not editing that page – scrolled through several of Munci's contribs – despite there being other editors for that article – found Prostitution in Iran, which Kurdo was editing for the first time not 4 hours prior to your editing it, and covering an area for which you've had trouble in the past.
Either way, it's tendentious, which you've been warned and blocked against for more than enough times. Xavexgoem (talk) 12:12, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
