RFC/discussion of article sulla

Hello, Xyrael. As a prominent contributor to sulla, you may want to be aware that a request for comments has been filed about it. The RFC can be found by the article's name in this list, and the actual discussion can be found on Talk:sulla, in case you wish to participate. Thank you for your contributions. -- Nick 15:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thanks for mediating. The story is simple.

  • But then when I wanted to move the discussion, Sulla16 ordered (!) me not to touch it. The point of wiki is that it's freely editable and that no one owns articles. (Except Sulla16 it seems.)
  • Of course an edit war ensued. Sulla16 kept reverting and putting in the comments that he was looking for mediation. He was not looking very hard. In fact if you check his contribution log he went eight days between 28 February and 9 March 2007 without looking for mediation but saying he was. In the end, I'm the one who went through the chore of starting the mediation process.
  • I then took a few days off, to show good faith. After a little while, I again took the POV text out but still in order to show good faith, I put 90% of it back in a different place where POV was OK (the legacy section). And still Sulla16 reverts. Given how closed to compromise he's been, I find his comment "lets let mediation take its course" kind of presumptious.
  • On an aside, Sulla16 has been rather insulting to me and while I accepted his apology, I think he worded it in a weaselly way.

So, since he won't compromise, I reverted as well and this is where things stand at this point. I am now thinking of starting arbitration proceedings against Sulla16 for refusal to look for consensus and with the object of banning him from Wikipedia for a few days and banning him from the Sulla page for a few months.

Yo. Just thought I should say that I DO add things that need adding. This redirect, for starters: ML_inequality. You wouldn't believe how long I'd spent trying to find it on wikipedia.

My e-mail

Hey! Here is my e-mail: jhak@optonline.net Thanks for picking up our case! Jolb 15:23, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Writing articles

When I find one that need writing, I will (and have done). I'd argue that that cross-link is of more value to those few of us who need to look it up, than writing a similar stuby article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kvetch (talkcontribs) 21:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]
