My comments here will be short and to the point: I'm no longer taking part here. I have received an astounding amount of support, especially by email, but it's time to go. I tried to walk away in August, and managed to do so for quite a while, but I eventually came back, because of the many requests I received urging me to return. Many of you have written to ask me to not leave, to not give up what I have here, but I'm afraid it's time to make a clean break. | |||

Could you please provide a link specifically of the alleged deletion? You have removed a valid notice board posting and deleted relevant discussion from the anon's talk page, so it seems that you have engaged in exactly the kind of behavior that you describe as 'red handed'. Your unilateral decision to block the anon clearly takes sides with editors engaged in a wide ranging, disruptive campaign to delete broad swaths of content, contributed to provide reasonable balance to a number of medical articles. An example of the type of imbalance that is being enforced can be observed at the ] article, an ill-conceived distraction that has been proffered as a subsitute for the deleted ] article. Your recent entry into this larger debate would be more welcome if you would use your admin privileges in a more even handed manner. ] 13:10, 24 February 2006 (UTC) | |||

== IBS Informal mediation == | |||
:(I have posted the following to Kd4ttc, just letting you know what has been said) Any member of Misplaced Pages is entitled to act as a mediator in any case, whether they are a member of a comittee or not. If you look carefully under informal mediation, you will see that anybody is entitled to come in and give an opinion on the matter. I was approached, as far as I was aware, to give this sort of informal mediation, not to act as an advocate. There was no need at the time for a formal mediation or advocacy, as rules and policy had been broken, therefore the changes sarastro made were valid, and the revertions were not. However, due to the events which later transipred, I found it necessary to start a more formal mediation, again, something which any user who has no involvment in the article itself has the right to do. I also considered the reverts to be bordering on vandalism, as I have a qualifications in both biology and medical ethics, and I saw sarastro's edits as useful to people who had the condition or were researching the condition. I hope a satisfactory conclusion can be drawn from this mediation, and that all users will be able to work together to produce a high quality article. This will be my final comment until you (Kd4ttc) recieve a reply from the co-ordinators of the mediation and advocacy comittees. Thank You. ] 11:49, 25 February 2006 (UTC) | |||

Hi Essjay. That user page is great! If you could move it in when you're back, that'd be great. If you want to merge the histories, that'd be especially cool, but that might take a while, I suppose! I hope you've had a good weekend. Cheers, ] <sup>]</sup> 20:38, 25 February 2006 (UTC) | |||

This user is no longer active on Misplaced Pages.
My comments here will be short and to the point: I'm no longer taking part here. I have received an astounding amount of support, especially by email, but it's time to go. I tried to walk away in August, and managed to do so for quite a while, but I eventually came back, because of the many requests I received urging me to return. Many of you have written to ask me to not leave, to not give up what I have here, but I'm afraid it's time to make a clean break.
I ask that the first steward to see this message please remove my various flags from this wiki, as well as from Meta, Commons, and Wikiquote, and remove the bot flags from my bots, which of course will no longer be running. My tools will be taken down shortly. I had planned to delete my user-space myself, but I don't want anyone to think I was going on a rampage, so instead, I ask that one or more administrators who are friends please delete the 288 pages that form my userspace (leaving only my userpage and this talk page).
I've enjoyed my time here, and done much good work; my time, however, is over, and leaving is the best thing for me and for Misplaced Pages. I walk away happy to be free to go about other things. I hope others will refocus the energy they have spent the past few days in defending and denouncing me to make something here at Misplaced Pages better.
