#'''Strong Oppose''' - During my rfa, he tried to negatively influence people to gather opposition against me and when certain voters supported me he made comments trying to '''discourage''' them [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AJayjg&diff=26604561&oldid=26597033]. The sad thing about this was that I had never even met him then, so it was very shocking for me to see an editor I had never had any dispute with before go to such lengths to gather opposition. He also takes sides with a certain group of editors, many of which push an extreme POV on Islam-related articles. Sorry, but I think giving him admin powers at this time will do more bad than good. --[[user:Anonymous editor|<font color="green">'''a.n.o.n.y.m''']] <sup>[[user talk:Anonymous editor| ''t'']]</sup> 18:31, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
#::Do you have any diffs of "extreme POV"? in the diff you point to he actually seperates himself from the "Bigots". [[User:Bluemoose|<font color=darkgreen>'''''Martin'''''</font>]] 18:37, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
#:::I think you misinterpreted his message. He says that a few are bigots, while most of them have a case against me. Regardless, in any case I think trying to directly
#:::: There was a pretty raucous debate going on in AE's RfA, and I participated in it, as I think was my right. It's also AE's right to participate in this one, and to argue against my adminship as he is doing. As for my association with that "certain group of editors," I would only point out that I have spent relatively little time on Islam-related articles, and most of that little time has been spent doing what I usually do: copyediting. I've created a couple stubs related to Muslim thinkers whom I admire, for example [[Abdullahi Ahmed An-Na'im]], but other than that I haven't added much content. I ''do'' dislike honorific expressions such as [[PBUH]] being placed in Wikipedia articles, but other than removing those I have not subtracted much Islam-related content, either.

#:::::Yes, participating in the voting and discussion was your right, but it was not a fair idea to go around trying to '''change other peoples' votes''' especially with the raucous that was going on. I had never even met you on wiki before, but bringing this type of attitude to my rfa did not make a good first impression.
