::I'm also taking this up at 3rr [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Three-revert_rule&curid=901222&diff=53495739&oldid=52210350] as A.J.A. got away with it by reverting us both with one blow - thus saving his "allowance". This is a terrible situation and I'm appauled by all of this. However I'm also getting increasing disillusioned with the ability of the admins to police themselves. Charles Matthews is on the arbcom so you will win no friends by fighting this and I'm sure I won't do too well by posting this.
 
::If you wish to try your luck you can post <nowiki>{{unblock}}</nowiki> on your talk page and another admin will look at the block. Since this has not been logged at [[WP:AN/3RR]] as it should have been no one else has had a chance to comment (I'm just watching the Acharya page as I've croosed swords with A.J.A. before and saw a message about your block). Be warned though - this may result in the block being lengthened. [[User:SOPHIA| <font colorspan style= "color:purple;">'''Sophia'''</fontspan>]] 13:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
 
:::Hey Sophia, thanks for your comments. My concern about the block is the risk of being tarred a 'problem user' over time due to a rather strict and selective application of policy. I won't fight this because it is technically a legal block. Still, considering that AJA refuses to discuss on the talk page while reverting a number of peoples work, I do think blocking me in this instance is questionable. OTOH, the [[Acharya S]] edit war has been going on for many months, and Charles has applied the 3RR strictly against others in the past, so I don't feel so bad.

I have seen all this and am appalled. No wonder A.J.A. behaves as he does - his bad behaviour is being ignored and the way cleared for him. Charles Matthews obviously doesn't understand that in wikipedia all editors are equal so if what he feels is an attack against him justifies a ban then so should calling other editors "vandals". He also doesn't seem to have got the hang of the idea that if you are involved you should not issue the ban yourself unless the article space is in danger which it clearly is not in this case. I will take it up with him directly at the risk of being accused of showing "bad faith". [[User:SOPHIA| <font colorspan style= "color:purple;">'''Sophia'''</fontspan>]] 18:08, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 
:He's actually [[User:skullnboner]] and there is a history with him at the Acharya page I think. I've asked Charles Matthews to log this one on [[WP:ANI]] as he should have done with your block too so I'm waiting for him to do that so that this discussion can take place in public. If he fails to log it then I will so I'll let you know when and where to comment if you wish to. Be warned as I don't expect this to go too well.

A clarification about my changes to [[antiscience]]: the changes are negotiable, but [[WP:NPOV]] is not. In other words, the outcome of the negotiation must continue to conform to [[WP:NPOV]]. [[User:Alienus|<fontspan colorstyle="color:darkcyan;">Al</fontspan>]] 20:55, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

==[[User:Alienus|Al]]==
 
I have posted an outside view as I can't believe they consider the final straw leading to Arbcom calling someone an "edit warrior". If Al gets banned I'm going too as this place really is beginning to resemble the [[Stanford Prison Experiment]]. To be quite honest it takes people like Al to rock the cozy boat a little, stretch the bounds of understanding of some limited editors and let people like me make what is then seen as reasonable edits that bring the article closer to NPOV. With Al gone I'll be faced with either wasting my time or becoming more bolshy myself which does not sit very well with my British/avoid conflict at all costs mentality.

:You are spot on which is why you know it's ultimately pointless. Shifting the ground on entrenched editors with strong POV's is as you say a dirty job and I dislike conflict and don't see why I should do it for a hobby. Al steps up to the mark in a way I admire (although in the past his methods sometimes left a lot to be desired) and don't have the stomach to emulate. I'd rather be gone than effectively sign my name to heavily partisan articles. [[User:SOPHIA| <font colorspan style= "color:purple;">'''Sophia'''</fontspan>]] 21:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I'm not going to get invloved in it since it seems like nothing more than a stupid wheel war. Thanks for bringing AN:I to my attention though. --[[User:Pilotguy|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#000000;">'''Pilotguy'''</fontspan>]]<sup> '''('''[[User_talk:Pilotguy|<fontb colorstyle="color:#0000FF;"><b>''roger that''</b></font>]]''')'''</sup> 17:51, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi you were active on the Christ Myth page during the month of december. It would be helpful to everyone if you indicated how you felt the conversation went in December [[Talk:Christ_myth_theory#Dec_5th_poll]].

==Hello==
I would say the "fun" is worse than ever. It is so hostile there - Eugeneacurry has basically said that he will start dispute resolution against me - and I've only been back 3 days! Never been threatened with that one before. You should look at the course he links to as justification for the book he wants to use as a source. The joke is it is exploring the evidence for a historical jesus!!! Own goal or what ;-) My biggest problem is time as I'm full on at the moment so hopefully we will get this sorted promptly.[[User:SOPHIA| <font colorspan style= "color:purple;">'''Sophia'''♫</fontspan>]] 09:37, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
 
:Congrats on the babies - you've been pretty busy these last few years! Mine are all growing up (20,17,14!!) but I' working full time and doing voluntary work as well so I have virtually no time for wiki these days. It's a bit scary how ferocious it has become and certain editors seem to know their way round the rules very well. I don't see how them not moving on their points is anymore disruptive than me repeating my stance. It will be interesting to see if the wheels of wiki are able to deal with vested interests well these days - this holocaust stuff looks like revenge for the creationists being labeled as denialists. Looking on the web the moon hoax/skin head stuff is very new (last decade) and does look like a "wedge strategy" approach as popular interest in the lack of documentary support has grown. The growth of more scientific historical techniques will be interesting as the current approach seems to state opinions/theories as "fact" with no admission of uncertainties. Hope the babes are well and I will try to add a moderate voice to the debate. [[User:SOPHIA| <span style="color:purple;">'''Sophia '''♫</span>]] 18:23, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi James, yes I meant the exact opposite, she is only notable and well known by her pseudonym . Listen why not ask rhe question and start a straw poll to see where general opinion is? [[User:Off2riorob|Off2riorob]] ([[User talk:Off2riorob|talk]]) 11:23, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

<big>'''Dispute Resolution – ''Survey Invite'''''</big>
----
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}. I am currently conducting a study on the dispute resolution processes on the English Wikipedia, in the hope that the results will help improve these processes in the future. Whether you have used dispute resolution a little or a lot, now we need to know about your experience. The survey takes around five minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist in analyzing the results of the survey. No personally identifiable information will be released.
'''Please click [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDBlN2RPQzljTFgySWg1bGFPZkVJcWc6MQ HERE] to participate.'''<br>
Many thanks in advance for your comments and thoughts.
