What's the harm?
Any further discussion can happen in front of the community at AN As you know, I need to avoid further COI involvement. So I archived this. You reverted. I supported, another user opposed. Without me there's no support. So I archived it. --Elvey(t•c) 23:41, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
- The problem is your repeated edits while topic banned. Don't do it again, please. --Adam in MO Talk 23:47, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
- I will respect the ban. Looking at your recent edits (virtually all about me) I feel like you are hounding me. I see you templated me while I was leaving this comment. I don't feel archiving a closed discussion is disruptive. What purpose is served by your unarchiving it? Seems like an extreme interpretation of the topic ban to say that warrants a warning and revert, but you'll probably yell at me if I comment further, so I won't ask again for a reply to my questions. Please leave me and my talk page alone. --Elvey(t•c) 23:58, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
- Here is a direct quote from you from your banning discussion. "In fact WP:HOUNDING#NOT says:
'[T]racking a user's contributions for policy violations' 'is not harassment if the claims are presented civilly' '; the contribution logs exist for editorial and behavioral oversight. Unfounded accusations of harassment may be considered a serious personal attack and dealt with accordingly.'
". Thanks. --Adam in MO Talk 00:01, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Misrepresentation of WP:NOPRICES

Really?
You wrote: "I'm not bothered that [Jonas Vinther] is a fascist. All points of view are welcome here. But his proud stance against verifiability, and his desire to tell the Truth©. That isn't what we are about."
Try these on for size:
- "I'm not bothered that [Jonas Vinther] is a mass murderer. All points of view are welcome here."
- "I'm not bothered that [Jonas Vinther] is an Islamic terrorist. All points of view are welcome here."
- "I'm not bothered that [Jonas Vinther] is a pedophile. All points of view are welcome here."
- "I'm not bothered that [Jonas Vinther] is a racist. All points of view are welcome here."
Despite what you may be told, not all beliefs are equal and acceptable, and not all philosophies are harmless. Some of them are dangerous, and a cancer on society. There is a real world outside of Wikipedia in which people die or are injured or psychologically scarred by those philosophies. I suggest that, in the future, you not be so naive about the very real dangers out there in the world, as 129 dead people in France are the most recent testament to. BMK (talk) 11:08, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
- Perhaps the subtext of my comment didn't come through. I'm not as concerned with a person's ideology as I am about their actions. You are correct, all beliefs are not equal and they are not acceptable, but as long as someone's behavior and goals align with our goals here then it doesn't really matter what their views on race, or religion may be. Jonas' goals do not comport with values of the project here. How you and I, independently, came to that conclusion, seems rather silly doesn't it?--Adam in MO Talk 15:55, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
