Thank you for your improvements to Yitzhak Rabin assassination conspiracy theories. It is sort of a contested article, although at present far less than in the recent past. Your edits improved the quality of the entry. Regards, gidonb 19:59, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- I have tried to leave myself out of the controversy, and concentrate only on the grammer. Where possible, I even tried to reduce the controversy, by writting "crime scene" so that there would not be a need to argue whether it was the "assassination site" or the "murder site". Note that my edits were only a "first step" at improving the article. The article is very poorly written (from a grammer point of view, I have nothing to say about the content, as I am not familir with the conspiracy theories). --Asbl 20:07, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- I agree with your changes and the previous poor quality. I have mostly safeguarded it against POV, but there was that too in the itemized list. We sort of neutralized it with a disclaimer at the beginning of the list. Your edits may reduce the amount of times I have to change it. The significant development was that the main POV pusher has found different interests after his very embarrassing appearance on a right-wing Israeli TV program. You are most welcome to continue! Thanks and best regards, gidonb 20:23, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- Shouldn't the information about the main person advocating the conspiracy theories having an embarrasing appearance on the Israeli TV be included in the article? What exactly was embarrasing about the appearance? --Asbl 20:27, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

- He confessed to visiting the interviewer several times in New York after receiving payment from the CIA. I don't know if this person himself is notable. He may be. He is mentioned without his name in some article, but his name is on all talk pages of Rabin murder associated pages, all over the globe. He sued Shimon Peres and was interviewed by the press. I guess that would make him notable. Regards, gidonb 20:32, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- He is not referred to anymore in an article. Also he is not the main person promoting the conspiracy theories, Barry Chamish is. David Rutstein is the main person promoting them online. I will think it over. gidonb 20:36, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
