Personal Attacks
editSpecifically you wrote, after I apologised to you:
- "I think you should read WP:Fair_use."
- "None of this would be here if you were not so committed to devaluing what we're trying to do here."
- "If you're willing to accept that the publication exists, I'm happy to take down the proof that it does."
- "You have violated basic dictums of WP::Resolving_disputes in that you did not WP:Assume_good_faith, and indeed engaged in sarcastic WP:Personal_attacks immediately after my first post."
- "You frequently write in the imperative - as if you were in charge here."
- "I don't know where all this anger is coming from."
- "I'm not seeking to achieve some narrow commercial agenda here, and I think the accusation that Doug and I are doing that is pretty ill-founded."

- I'm sorry you're so upset. As far as the article is concerned, it contains no verifiable statements from sources other than a single paper abstract. It's up to the editors to provide sources. As far as I can tell, none exist beyond promotional material.
- As far as your feelings about how I've treated you and Doug, I've already apologized for thinking you were Doug. I'm not the most patient person when it comes to people violating Wikipedia guidelines, not that I think my patience is something to also apologize for. I've given you and Doug multiple references to the relevant guidelines. I've helped you two put together what references you actually have. --Ronz 18:51, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Welcome
editHi KS,
I'd just like to welcome you to Wikipedia. It's usually a fairly friendly place where people take the utmost care not to bite the newcomers. Sometimes users forget their common sense and violate the second guiding principle of the policy trifecta. You seem to have a level head on your shoulders. I hope you stay and continue to contribute to somatic articles. I'm sure we'll see each other around. Best wishes. Anon. 58.178.194.85 07:39, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
