Perverted-Justice page

edit

Hello Will Beback, I was wondering if you could take a look at the Perverted-Justice page when you have a moment. There is disagreement there related to the opening sentence and the inclusion of the assertion that PJ engages in harassment. As it reads now, it appears to make the claim that PJ engages in harassment as a rule. Here is a link to the discussion: Talk:Perverted-Justice#Harrasment

That addition made by Barry Jameson was reverted back by a few people, myself included. Then Swatjester comes in and threatens me with a 3R (although he neglects to warn Barry Jameson of the same offense, even though he had far more than 3 reverts). I pointed out that all of the citations being used are garbage (some point to comments on articles, others point to Corrupted Justice or quotes by Corrupted Justice - an unreliable source by all accounts). I'm not asking for agreement from either party, but Swatjester ignored what I pointed out, left all the citations, and insulted my lucidity. I'm not asking for sympathy, I'm asking for some assitance since if I do make any more reversions or changes I'll probably be banned. FrederickTG (talk) 03:31, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Pedophia and Child Sexual Abuse" in literature / "Mirror" Wikipedia page seems to have been created under new name

edit
Have you been aware of the existence of this recently-created page
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_books_featuring_pedophilia
which appears to be an attempt to pre-empt the discussion by re-creating the page under a new title, rather than addressing problems with the old title?
As an administrator, what do you think of the approach this editor is using? SocJan (talk) 21:59, 11 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Actually, if you will review the original page, you will discover that the most recent title change I made actually restored the word "pedophilia". After that, another editor, who thought the new title too long, created the current title:
"(cur) (last) 18:25, 10 February 2008 The Relativist (Talk | contribs) m (moved Talk:List of works portraying pedophilia or other problematic adult responses to young males to Talk:List of works portraying adult attraction to young males: This seems a more suitable title. I have defended it on the talk page.) (undo)"
I take it your advice is that I must start all over, disputing on the page Tony created back in October, his inclusion of Guy Davenport's fictions, which is how I was drawn into all of this in the first place?
I really don't believe that I have been out of line in attempting to resolve problems that were long-standing in Tony's original article, which includes some works that unquestionably are about pedophilia but also many where that characterization is highly OR and POV.
Please take the time to review the full Talk page of the original article.
When you have done that, please simply answer whether you believe Wikipedia should host multiple articles with effectively the same content. SocJan (talk) 22:34, 11 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Oops. I see that another editor has now redirected Tony's new page to the old page.
Frankly, this is getting too deep for me. I got involved when I found works on Tony's page that I did not believe should be there. I disputed their inclusion and was supported by other editors. We deleted those where all but Tony seemed to agree that inclusion was inappropriate. Others, where consensus had not been reached, were left. But then Tony has apparently simply taken "his" page elsewhere, dodging all the work put in by the rest of us who do not always agree with him, restoring material (for example, works by Guy Davenport) that the preponderance of input said should not be there.
And you seem to approve!
Here is the situation as I see it: While many of us were struggling in good faith with a long-standing problem with terminology, one editor (who participates in something called a "pedophilia watch" project) creates a new page that restores disputed content that had been removed after extensive discussion from the old page, and fails to register the new page in the "pedophila watch" section.
I feel a bit of a fool for fiddling away for months trying to improve a Wikipedia page, trying to make it more accurate and fair, without realizing that everything I thought I had accomplished has been quietly removed where I was not looking.
It seems clear that people who simply know something and haven't mastered Wikipedia political tactics aren't really welcome. We can expect to be unfairly labeled as "pro-pedophilia" (and criticized for protesting), while others simply run around any attempts at consensus by re-creating pages willy-nilly the way they want them. Is this really how Wikipedia should work?! SocJan (talk) 23:07, 11 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I'm completely confused by your latest post on my Talk page. On 5 January of this year I made an edit that revised the intro to PEDOPHILIA AND CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE IN FICTION (BOYS) and listed a proposed new title for the page, which was then discussed for two weeks. I "moved" the page only after that time. Why was the change "contentious"? And speaking of your "disapproval of contentious page moves made without consensus", is it fair to say that you thus disapprove of the creation of "List of Books Featuring Pedophilia"? Absolutely no consensus supported this move to a new title, not to mention restoration on that moved page of old, contested, content that had been deleted by consensus at the old page.
Please note that the move to LIST OF BOOKS FEATURING PEDOPHILIA was made months before "pedophilia" was deleted from the title of the original article. Was that move (via duplication) not contentious and unsupported by consensus?!
I'm trying to understand your position as an administrator watching this topic. You have mistakenly perceived that I "made sure that List of works portraying adult attraction to young males excludes "pedophilia" from the title" when in fact I was very cautious about removing it in the first place, and then restored that word to the title when people objected. And now you say I mischaracterize your comments about contentious title changes when the record is clear that I did my best to seek consensus while another editor completely evaded consensus.
So I must ask: Is it your opinion that moving effectively the same content (with disputed material restored without notice to those who disputed it!) to "LIST OF BOOKS FEATURING PEDOPHILIA" was not contentious? And that it reflect some consensus? If so, who participated in that consensus? I cannot understand your comments. SocJan (talk) 23:56, 11 February 2008 (UTC)Reply


Hello, Will. I accept your recent deletions on the Talk page as a legitimate way to deal with the recent situation.

But could you clarify whether your intervention is as an editor of that page, supporting a position in the discussion, or as a neutral moderator of Wikipedia discussions. You have played both roles. They are not incompatible, but some indication from you of where you stand on the page's current and future evolution would seem timely.

As you know, a number of editors have been concerned that "pedophilia" has multiple meanings -- one in psychology, a different one in law enforcement, and a still vaguer one in general and casual usage in society -- and have thus argued that it was a poor choice for a word around which to build a Wikipedia article of that sort. It was clear that editors interested in the page could not agree on which definition to use.

Are you comfortable with the new title and introductory paragraphs? Or should we continue to seek a better solution?

The originator of the page is clearly upset, and that's highly understandable. He has made it abundantly clear that he is wedded to the word "pedophila" and to a definition of it that is extremely broad (one that he repeated in the material you deleted).

But Wikipedia requires its entries to acknowledge controversy and lack of unanimity where they exist, while he wants things simpler than they can be made for this subject. DEATH IN VENICE was a good test case. My position is that It can now be included, whereas it was a great stretch so long as "pedophilia" and "child sexual abuse" appeared in the article's title, since neither is clearly and unequivocally present in D in V. Do you agree? SocJan (talk) 22:58, 3 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Wanted to request your support with, in my option, a disruptive editor involved with the Diebold article. His edits include adding adding Black Box Voting and Hacking Democracy under the See Also section of the article. These in my opinion are not related to this entry and would be better served in the Premier Election Solutions entry. If you agree I would like to request your assistance and monitoring this article and if necessary contacting an admin. I wouldn't want anyone to think there are any efforts to protect Diebold, but at the same time WP is not a soapbox and I wont have the time in the near future to help with this. Please help if you're interested. Thanks. --Electiontechnology (talk) 02:36, 5 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I see that you deleted all the redlinks from these lists. One of the advantages of lists over categories is that "lists can include items for which there are yet no articles (red links)".

Personal attacks

edit

If you are genuinely concerned about personal attacks, I would expect to see lots of similar messages to that you placed on my talk page placed on those of other people, such as PatW. If you have not done that, then your request to me was disingenuous. Having said that, though, what is your definition of "personal attack"? I simply suggested that people were naive. The term "brainwashed" was used by various people on "the other side" on many occasions. So that can't be a personal attack. It's not a crime to criticise people's beliefs or positions; that is not a personal attack.

In addition, WP: No personal attacks states "Accusing someone without justification of making personal attacks is also considered a form of personal attack."

And I am sure you are aware of "Using someone's affiliations as a means of dismissing or discrediting their views — regardless of whether said affiliations are mainstream." That seems to occur with great regularity amongst the detractors of Prem Rawat who edit those pages.

About user Chaldean

He keeps removing everything that is about Syriacs. He remove the page Syriac people. Just because he is assyrian/chaldean, and thinks that syriacs are assyrians.

Dear sir, the user VegardNorman is not your typical wiki user. He has previously threatend by using vandelism [8], moved pages without concent with the rest of the Wiki community that deals with Assyrian/Syriac project, and has repeadly been warned of 3RV as well as other Wikipedia violations. Now in regards of the subject, we the Wiki users (lead by admin User:Garzo) of the related subject have been working really hard in clearing the subject as much as possible. We have created a page specifically explaining the naming dispute (Names of Syriac Christians), and have created disam page (Syriac (disambiguation)), so that we can stay as neutral as possible. Now, this user as well is his possible suck puppet User:The TriZ have stormed English Wiki from Swedish Wiki and are editing radically, demanding this Aramean revolution be observed here on English Wiki. I don't know what I can do with these users other then talk, but they have declared they are not willing to negotiate (see Assyrian people:Talk page). I don't know what do to with them anymore.

The irony of statements like this Its been proved that syriacs are arameans. is somethig else.

Chaldean, if you have anything to say about me, please take it in my discussionpage. Is is also obvious that you're not that innocent that you apparently want to show you are. Lets take a look at the article Sharbel Touma and its history. Here, [13], you redirect to Syiac people. Same article, which it if course stood Assyrian before i changed it with a reliable source, you write in history that "reverted the edits of anonimous. he is a assyrian", how you know that he is Assyrian doesn't say. You probably even don't heard of this person. Not to mention what EliasAlucard wrote, "Look, the guy is an Assyrian. Just because some Syriacs claim they're Aramaeans, doesn't mean they are. Most Syriacs claim they're Assyrians anyway". Obviously with no reliable sources at all. This is a typical way of you to start an edit-war. And just to point it out, i'm not saying i'm infallible. The TriZ (talk) 14:23, 28 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Triz the reason I changed it from Aramean to Syriac, is because Aramean is a page that talks about an ancient people, not today's Syriac Orthodox (like Western Syriacs is for example.) Previously, I reverted an anom's edit because I thought without any citation, it might have been possible vandel. No I don't know him, but if you are sure of him not considering himself Assyrian, then that is fine. But you can't write on English wiki that he is Aramean. Its not like Swedish Wiki. In English language, its either Syraics or Assyrians. Look I would be more then glad to work with you two, but you guys need to understand that things work different around here then on Swedish wiki.

Prem Rawat

edit

I may be persuaded that it would be better not to post anonymously, but your contention that it would be better to do so needs justification. In a polarised debate such as surrounds how to describe the operations of Mr Rawat, most of the arguments fall back on ad hominem statements. Whilst it is worthwhile to know, for instance, that one of the most actively involved editors (who also happens to be a wikipedia administrator) is (or was until very recently) a press officer for the Prem Rawat Foundation, I think it's better generally to look at what is being said rather than who is saying it. I post anonymously for that reason. (I already have a long-established user id. To set up a new one would imply operating a sock puppet, which I'd prefer not to do.) There is also an element of fear. Wikipedia has a lot of credibility, which I have, in my own small way, helped to build up over the years. The millionaire lifestyle of Mr Rawat is threatened by poor publicity. Therefore it would hardly be surprising if his foundation operated ruthlessly to censor anything which might deter would-be donors. If they fail in that, the next logical step would be to threaten those who operate to obtain transparency. I would rather keep safe and anonymous, protected by a firewall that allows my IP address to be the same as that of about 180,000 other people globally at the organisation where I work.

As an admin yourself, you might want to take a step back and try to see what is going on here. I am expecting now, following the Register article, that there will be increasing media interest in this story, particulary as the subject of that article continues to apply his (rather limited) marketing skills to keep a lid on the Prem Rawat and related articles and stop them covering what Rawat's followers don't want them to cover. A friend of mine is already in touch with an English quality newspaper, aiming to get a good story to follow up the Register article. (I should add that I am a seasoned activist in a number of areas, having been commissioned in the past to write for the BBC news website, for instance.) My suggestion was that jossi ought to back down, else he might find that his own friends will disown him because of the damage that will have been done to their cause by his own incompetence. Intriguingly that suggestion itself was deleted from the Prem Rawat talk page yesterday by another anon. His actions act considerably to increase the stench which the Rawat's Foundation's abuses of wikipedia have already created and are continuing to do. Newspaper readers love a good stench! 147.114.226.175 (talk) 16:04, 28 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Neon, what's your point in asking? Why does anyone edit on Wikipedia? Without any other reasons to guess I'd think that the obviousness of "these articles are of interest" is enough.
Now, other users have been permanently banned for having edit histories on such narrow subjects, mind you, but Will won't have that problem cause he's on the "right" side.
But really, the question was pathetic. (This is me defending Will and his edit history.) Squeak's "answer" was worthless and came off as knee-jerk defense of bad actions and intent, even though there is/was none to defend!
