And that is not something that someone would expect to happen with a ''religion'' either. Yet in the 5 or so federal and state court cases where the religiosity and ''mandated'' attendance of Alcoholics Anonymous has been challenged, in each case A.A. has been found by the courts to be "a religion", "religious", and/or "religious movement" and thus ruled in favor of the plaintiff. The United States Supreme Court heard one of those contested cases and they too ruled for the plaintiff. Not exactly what one who goes to AA under the threat of penalty would ''expect''. But the fact that the majority of people are not aware of this, and therefore would not expect it, does not mean it doesn't exist. :[[File:Gnome-colors-list-add.svg\|20px\|alt=added\|Added]] {{hlist\|class=inline \|[[Special:Permalink/1256544536#IAdmin request (SD0001)\|SD0001]] \|[[Special:Permalink/1256544536#Interface admin perm request (Sohom Datta)\|Sohom Datta]] }} :[[File:Gnome-colors-view-refresh.svg\|20px\|alt=readded\|Readded]] [[Special:Permalink/1256350964#Resysop request (Pppery)\|Pppery]] [[File:Checkuser Logo.svg\|20px\|alt=]] '''CheckUser changes''' ::So what people may expect might not necessarily reflect what actually has been proven.

Movements that have been the subject of a significant body of work by legitimate researchers and even court cases. On the other hand, and correct me if I am mistaken, but I don't think anyone would object if I posted links to research regarding Scientology because popular opinion is not favorable towards Scientology. I think we live in a culture that is very uncomfortable at times examining "religious movements" that the majority perceives are benefitial. I think there is a resistance at times to examine these groups and the minority voice who has done the examination and posits conclusions that portray something other than widely held beliefs are viewed as negative. The negative "tag" is not based on the merits of the research done by the minority, but because the conclusions contradict the majority opinion and their expectations. As a Wiki reader, I am always interested in the ideas of both the majority and minority. That is how I reach my own conclusions and feel like I am making an informed decision. * Following [[Wikipedia talk:Administrators#RFC: Resysoppings after five years with no administrative actions\|an RFC]], the [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Restoration of adminship\|policy on restoration of adminship]] has been updated.

I've checked the quotes I've used, and one MAY be in copyright, another definately is, but both of these seem to come under fair use, as they're short, to the point, and relatively far from the key reasons for getting the things they quote from anyway. The Quotes from La Viviandre are DEFINATELY out of copyright, since I got them from an ancient Victorian libretto I photocopied at the National Liberary of Scotland, and their author died in 1911.

No, I don't think that links to child porn should be included in articles. At [[Lolicon]], I don't expect people to be reasonable about this. That leaves edit warring or an RfC. I think an RfC would be much the better path. True, you could lose, but if you can't win on an RfC from the whole community, you're sunk anyway. Here's what I drafted to post at [[talk:Lolicon]]. I didn't post it, awaiting your thoughts. If ''you'' want to post it in your words under ''your'' name, that would OK. More than OK really since, although I will surely support you, I don't especially want to be point man on this. But I'll post it myself if desired. If it ''is'' posted, my personal recommendation would be to wait a couple days for people to respond/blow of steam before beginning the RfC.

I've offered several compromises and have bent over backwards many, many times as can clearly be seen in the talk pages -- I've continually conceded and redone my suggestions in the hopes that something would finally be accessible to them. But nothing will, and they are clearly not willing to compromise on the issue because every single "suggestion" they offer is a rewrite of the same paragraph that locks the point of the debate out over and over. They act as if they run the Aiken page because they feel they do. The POV is rampant and has crossed the line of reason. I certainly have no plans on dropping it, regardless of that being their ultimate goal. So I don't see a solution possible without intervention. Possibility of rejection or not, I can only hope that the admins realize that nearly a month of having a page protected and the pages upon pages of stuff in the talk show there's a problem that can't be handled between us. I just want this to be over with and short of leaving the debate (which I'm not going to do) I don't think it's ever going to end. - [[User:Mixvio\|mixvio]] 03:27, 6 April 2006 (UTC) AffCom Conflict Intervention: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Affiliations_Committee/News/Issue_4#AffCom Conflict Intervention\|Updates on conflict intervention cases]] : I followed all the outlines in the dispute resolution guideline, so I can't think of any steps I missed. This issue has been going on for over a month and during all this time I've tried very hard to manage the issue on my own. I'm not the only person arguing my position - not by a long shot, and if I were I'd let it go. But I'm the most prolific and it's immensely frustrating that the issue's been hijacked by people who run out to grab their friends and leave messages on forums to harass me. In response to your questions: AffCom Movement Contribution: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Affiliations_Committee/News/Issue4_#AffCom_Movement_Contribution\|AffCom engagement at WikiIndaba]] ~~: '''What are you trying to accomplish with the RFAr?'''~~ : I'm trying to have the debate ended fully and completely. Note, that I don't want it ended with my side in-tact and victorious, I just want the issue decided. I feel that those of us in the debate are incapable of coming to an agreement on our own. I have placed a request for comments and some people took the chance to leave some; I will note in this that most of the ones who came to leave comments left comments in my favor. But regardless, whether my viewpoint is chosen or not, I don't think a solution is going to work without non-appellate intervention. I realize that the admins typically weigh-in on people conflicts, but I can't see any other process to decide content disputes. If it's not settled and taken out of our hands we'll be editing back and forth until we explode.

I opened the issue to comments from others by posting the request but not as many people came as I hoped they would. I made the request because I feel if the consensus were clearer or there were a stronger majority one way or the other it would make the issue easier to deal with. Unfortunately it's split nearly down the middle. Regardless, while they ''claim'' that they'd listen to outsider input, I don't know if I believe they would. The main antagonists in the debate have an almost god-like, religious reverence and I think this issue has transcended into something much, much worse and deeper for them.

If not, no problem. I appreciated your input last time. I don't know how to resolve the issue, because he refused to participate in a mediation about it even. The issues are that he's picking out things liberals have said and attributing that as part of the definition of classical liberalism --so he's coming up with his own definition. The other issue is that he's claiming that it's a "libertarian" term, as if it's not a common term in political philosophy and he's even using a Google search listing as a source --he thinks that's a credible source.
