proposal may need to be moved

Hi David,I made a proposal in the enforcement section in the workshop of the case and an arbitrator indicated that it may need to be moved to the principals section.Could you please take a look and maybe move it if necessary?Thanks alot.--Nadirali نادرالی

quick request

Hey there David,I have a quick request.I just need you to let the arbitrators know that recent evidence from outside users has just come in on the evidence section on the case.I also posted some new evidence a few days ago.(From the looks of it,they haven't checked anything there).

Some new users have just posted there as well,so please do inform the arbitrators. That's all I needed to say.

Thanks alot.--Nadirali نادرالی

Transnistria arbitration

Hi David. In 23 April you wrote to User:William Mauco to submit evidence for the arbitration case regarding Transnistria through e-mail. As I am also involved in this case, I'm asking you if you received such evidence, if yes, if there is some reason why the evidence was not yet added in the arbitration case and if is possible for me to know what data was presented. Thanks.--MariusM 13:17, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Agriprocessors

Thank you for your oversight. This is not the best article, but it's mine and it's fully sourced and I agree with others' additions/revisions, and yes, I've lived near Postville and Eastern Parkway both. The vandal's suggestions are absurd. This article needs routine surveillance, which I do. But admin surveillance is also needed, sometimes to the point of protection. A block may be in order.--MarkTwainOnIce 06:04, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Disappearance of said article

Agriprocessors no longer shows up on my machine as an article, tho' a google does display references to same. I suspect the article has been deleted by a highly-placed admin. Hey! This was a pro-Agriprocessors article, inasmuch as they supply large employment in Allamakee County, Iowa. It's as if the admin wanted public trouble over this deletion. This event will be reported to the Waukon, Iowa Standard as one of those strange Misplaced Pages things. I suspect I will be blocked for writing this (copy made). Is Misplaced Pages really a conspiracy? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MarkTwainOnIce (talkcontribs).

Controversies

The Wikimedia Foundation received complaints about this article. It seems to oscillate between a self-laudatory article about a non notable business, and an article mostly formed of a "controversy" section where there is not a single link to a mainstream news source. All is formed of links to activist sites, and original research. Neither of these is tolerable. David.Monniaux 22:37, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

After reading the article, do you agree with my assessment above? It's not that I'm against controversies being reported on Misplaced Pages, but I think we should stick to controversies that have had at least some quantity of media exposure, not just about any controversy mounted by local activists. David.Monniaux 06:44, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Foo. Agriprocessors has been determined by Misplaced Pages to be a protected industry, which shall have power to induce torture to any animal they chose to torture. Obviously no, but this process, and the admins' deleting process is what it amounts to. --MarkTwainOnIce 10:35, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

EFA picture

The Ministry of Defense has reorganized its site... The picture is probably no longer online there. Wikimédia France is working on having the government change the copyright status of public works, but it's going to be a complex process. (Museums want to make money off photos, administrations want to control their image by selecting who they allow to use their photos, etc.) David.Monniaux 07:13, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello to you

Mmmm... Well... my first time trying to edit something on this. I would hope that you would trust the veracity of my assertion, given what you know of my position in the school and the work in question. However, as you're the expert here, I'll defer to you and find some way of publishing the permission. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by craigbmorrison (talkcontribs).

I think it was epoch-making in a few ways. Most importantly because it was the first free school for the working classes in Cambridge, something the colleges and university were dead against. It was an important change in the development of state education as opposed to charitable or church-led elementary education. Also, in 1971, when the school became a comprehensive, it was a major change not only to education in the town, but also a marker for state education again - moving to a wholly comprehensive system was a big thing for a town like Cambridge to do so early on.

Arb case note

I just switched templates on the Badlydrawnjeff case for the listing of Tony Sidaway because of the listing of Tony with {{admin}} when he is currently not an admin nor is his administrative actions the locus of the case.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 21:21, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh yes, sorry. I assumed that he was one because he used to be, and because he was closing AfDs, DRVs, etc. David Mestel 21:36, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
