Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm enjoying my time here as an editor so far. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help. --Dh100 00:45, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
No threats
editI have extended a hand of cooperation to you earlier, and you have responded with reverts and insults (Bionicle lol). Now we can, as I have previously said, work together to improve this article, or I will take this to be arbitrated, as is proper for Wikipedia disputes. Again, I have no wish to fight over this.

- Quite frankly, as I have outlined before, you've less 'extended a hand of cooperation' than you have essentially demanded that large wholesale edits be taken in toto, and refused to work cooperatively on smaller edits. You continue to appeal emotionally and use ideological buzzwords as the basis for your claims of 'bias' rather than working on the basis of documented, demonstrable facts. You continue to be condescending and assert you have some sort of power to unilaterally invoke arbitration, to set arbitrary time limits for when the Wikipedia entry in question has to be cleaned up to suit yourself, as well as be the final determiner of when the entry is no longer 'biased.' As far as Bionocle being an 'insult', I wasn't aware that referring to a person's own documented edit history was insulting. If you find editing such entries to be insulting, I simply suggest you stop working on them. And finally, as I stated earlier, continued threats (I'm sorry, that's what it is) of attempting to enter arbitration over the entry in question doesn't intimidate me at all. --Dh100 22:29, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- So, do you want to work together or not? Judgesurreal777 22:34, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Wait, you said you do, didn't you? with the wanting to do small changes or something? Judgesurreal777 22:39, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- I think it's less an issue of having some folderol about 'working together' than actually demonstrating that you're willing to work with others in an adult manner. The first is merely talk; the second is good faith action. Let's concentrate on that. --Dh100 22:47, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
Re, the Joseph McCarthy article, while I broardly agree with your points (Ann Coulter as a source!?!?), I think WP:NPA is almost as important as WP:NPOV. I hope you two can resolve your issues. Nloth 05:10, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
