| == Critics and MyWikiBiz == | |||
| I was just reading an illuminating Signpost article at ]. I had not understood that the Greg Kohs whose article was such a problem for you was actually involved in MyWikiBiz and had come into conflict with Misplaced Pages over paid editing issues. What this makes me wonder is - are any of the other editors who have recently been piling on the critiques at WR or on Jimbo's page also part of this same business or industry? I've always seen issues like on ] (the latest spot they've gathered) as straight inclusionism versus deletionism, overwrought moralism against completeness, but is it possible there are actual paying clients involved, and these actions are at least partly genuine PR actions? ] (]) 16:12, 28 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
| :Well, I don't really want to become a bigger, more foolish or even more blatantly homosexual target that I already am for my stalkers. However, you might want to consider that the big PR folks are a different class of beast to some of the obvious paid editors you have mentioned, and it seriously does not help to confuse planned and deep manipulation of the encyclopaedia with minor conflict of interest issues such as expert Museum curators trying to improve articles. Wikimedia UK is building relationships with folks like the ] and we hope to move their view of the world and best practice on by open discussion and training, so they can establish an ethical approach to asking for factual corrections rather than being tempted to manipulate from the shadows. Be assured it goes on, and doubtless in the future there will be newsworthy cases to flap about. In general, I would much, much rather see such exposures as the start of an open and grown-up dialogue rather than running around in circles screaming and shouting, enjoyable as some of us seem to find it. {{=)}} --] (]) 17:03, 28 April 2012 (UTC) | |||

I said clearly I won't violate 3RR, and will leave this whole thing to others after this weekend. The "war" I mentioned was a PREDICTION, because I know how others are gonna be acting. Not a "declaration". History2007, as usual, over-reacts, and whines, and wastes my time. Not cool. ] (]) 21:20, 28 April 2012 (UTC) | |||

If you are having difficulty understanding History2007's point of view, please consider one of the neat ] processes such as ] which can be helpful and avoid falling into unpleasently personal conflict. | |||

| :Thanks, I did catch it and your comments elsewhere have helped; my reply was directed at Franamax though I did use your wording. It is unfortunate that some have lost perspective or any sense of humour on this issue (as doubtless I do sometimes), it's also rather unfortunate that I am not able to engage in the discussion without one of my long term stalkers turning up to have a go at muddying the water and trying to hurt me. Not unexpected I guess, though I still find myself unable to fathom why over such a long period, they would remain so attracted or otherwise obsessed, with someone as non-notable as me. Very creepy indeed. | |||
