Could the whole discussion on Erik issues over Mother
Teresa MOVE to the english list where it is relevant
WHILE
The whole discussion on watch list issues move from
the english list to the general list, where it is
relevant
OR
could we just swap mailing list names since
discussions relevant on english matter are on the
general list, while discussions relevant to the whole
community are on the english list ?

Iris, shut up and get back to work! You are wasting everyone's time.
Either help us to write accurate NPOV articles, or leave.
I don't give a rat's ass about whether natural health or iridology or
zone manipulation are true or not. Just make your case for them, and
leave it for the reader to decide.
People have bent over backwards to accomodate you, mostly out of a pure
concern for fairness and justice. You have eroded all the good will left
in my body. Any more crap out of you, and I will "take steps". Better
listen up good, because I'm one the oldest "old hands" around here and I
know how to work the system. Don't get me riled up against you, or I
will force you out!! (A word to the wise is sufficient.) --Uncle Ed

As those of you who look at the minor edits on RC no doubt have noticed,
I've been going around for some days replacing thumbnail images with
links to their "larger version" with the appropriate thumbnail code. The
original thumbnail image gets obsolete in the process.
I have now started searching for images with "thumb" in their name. I
will delete all those thumbnails that
* are not linked to by some page other than an "upload log", and
* have a larger version on wikipedia
unless someone has a counter-argument.
Otherwise, feel invited to join me on this mindless task! ;-)
Maybe we should have a bot for this. Or a maintenance page. Well, if
geoffrin is to be resurrected after all...

So says you. Since when have you been the spokesperson for the AC?
You are free to vote to accept such cases, but I will not unless a majority of
the mediation committee votes to refer the case or if Jimbo refers it.

*You jackass, Im not a sysop. You need to grow up or resign your
position. You are setting a bad example and people like you are a
detriment to the entire community. The only standards you are upholding
is your standard that its ok for you to personally attack anyone you
feel is a substandard user, simply because you are "Uncle Ed". Why don't
you save your bullshit "wikilove" hypocrisy for yourself, you aren't
fooling anyone. [[User:Lir|Lirath Q. Pynnor]]
Why are you upping the ante? That's twice in one day you've made a
personal attack: ''jerk'' and ''jackass'' -- how juvenile do you plan to
get? Asking contributors to stop calling names is not a bad example;
asking them to stop wasting others' time is not a bad example.
I'm beginning to think that behind your pattern of personal attacks is a
hidden agenda: that you don't want any standards at all. I can see no
other reason behind your belittling remarks.
You complain on the Mediation Board and on the mailing list that no one
wants to help you, but you explicitly and insultingly disdain my help.
Are you ''trying'' to get banned? --[[User:Ed Poor|Uncle Ed]] 19:06, 31

Ed, I explicitly and insultingly disdain your help. You are a hypocrite
who harrasses users with personal attacks and threats. You are a pompous
fool. [[User:Lir|Lirath Q. Pynnor]]

"refuse" to help you, now does it? I will notify the committee. --Ed

Before you criticize something, it would be very helpful to read the relevant
documentation:
"... in most cases, the arbitration committee will only hear cases referred to
them by the Mediation Committee or directly from Jimmy Wales."
"The arbitrators will accept a case if four arbitrators have voted to hear it."
From:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_policy#Requests
I for one will not vote to hear any case where I think that earlier steps in
the dispute resolution process would help. I will also not vote to hear cases I
think are frivolous.
But a majority vote by the mediation committee would add a great deal of weight
to my decision to vote to hear a case. As would a community poll.
For me at least, requests by individuals is just so much background noise.

So that post about trolling and "The Abstract" was
really just a troll who was an abstract? Whoah, man.
It's like...the whole universe might be just ONE GRAIN
OF SAND, MAN.
Whoah.

Hello,
I'm studying in Brussels (ICHEC) and I'm writing my thesis about Open Content. Therefore I'm asking you if you would be so nice to answer me some questions. I'm specially interested in your opinion about Open Content and your personnal experience. It would be very kind when you could help me.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Thill Chantal

I think that that would be a useful thing to keep in mind, yes.

A basic read of the page titled "Arbitration policy" would make clear the
difference between the temporary process and the more permanent one that it
being worked on.
"Currently" should also be a huge hint. That statement is based on clearly
marked (on the policy page, which is referred to and linked) temporary and
emergency session guidelines (which have many admitted flaws). What we have
been talking about here is what should the more permanent process be.
Things will become more clear when we have one set of guidelines.
