Thanks for the good quality of changes you've made in the last day or two. We were slightly at loggerheads over some earlier edits (though those seem to get resolved OK); but the additions you've made recently are definitely NPOV and good quality, and I appreciate that. I definitely think the findings of the CU subcommittee are very notable for inclusion. In summary for the main bio, but where they dispute/refute claims by Churchill or his proponents on the child article, we should point that out clearly.
Mind you, I don't think the subcommittee is the "voice of god" either... they could be wrong also (for example, Churchill made a statement in Counterpunch right after the release of the findings that continued to dispute the process and outcome). On the other hand, I know personally the subcommittee chair, Mimi Wesson, well enough to know that her part in it, at least was conducted in good faith and with integrity. I'm pretty sure she's one of those recommending the lesser suspension; but the fact she recommended suspension at all means quite a bit. Of course, my personal feelings about Dr. Wesson aren't encyclopedic either. Anyway, where something specific in the findings contradicts something that Churchill (or other parties) had stated previously, we should make a point of presenting the committee opinion as well... which is exactly what you've done.
Oh, I saw that the copyright clearance on the old Post article you scanned was questioned. It might have been OK if you had tagged it as fair use or the like. But that might have been iffy too; as much as I think it's worth letting readers see, I suspect the Post really does have a legal right to disallow it. I guess what I'll do is upload the scan to my own website, and change the image link to point there. If the Post complains at me, I'm not going to fight about taking it down... but most likely I can just do that "under the radar". LotLE× talk 01:33, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Please read over Wikipedias three revert rule. Your latest edit to Ward Churchill misconduct allegations is essentially the same as others you keep reverting to.

Verkempt: Albion moonlight has started the process of having you, Verkempt, and myself, Getaway, investigated as either sockpuppets or meatpuppets of each other.

Good, helpful - and sober and well-written - stuff in "Jazz" Verklempt: keep on going/improving, don/t be shouted-so-stupidly [& sadly] down 217.42.99.130 16:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I think it's worth revisiting this issue. Unfortunately, I cannot do much about it right now -- I'm taking a wikibreak of sorts -- but I may be able to help in a few weeks, if you can wait till then. If not, please do go ahead and make the case, I think it's quite solid. Turgidson 13:09, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Please try to take the time to engage in constructive dialog rather than reverting the edits of other users. You have done it twice. Please do not break 3RR. futurebird 22:27, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
A really GREAT 4 hours work on 'Jazz' on Oct 20, Verklempt. At last someone is starting to properly sort out, prioritise and clarify "Jazz" from being an all-over-the-place mess to, finally, a the beginnings of a good article: everyone should say 'Thank You' but, sadly, I can imagine all sorts of [boring & irrelevant] stuff to come.... ! 81.156.1.40 11:35, 20 October 2007 (UTC)..... & it came: what a sad pity this would seem to be for "Jazz".... hope I'm POV free?
What is your problem? The posts I added are not opinion, This is documented in the BIA findings thru the FOIA.. This is fact and I have a copy of it. Cohen's work was discredited by everyone with a degree. His work is flawed. This is also documented within the BIA. Joslyn has done his work 'pro bono' over 15 years and along with other notable Genealogists, proved his work is flawed. Unless you can prove a college thesis holds more merit that years of experience and it's verifiable, leave it alone. Ramapoughnative 23:04, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
I'm really just waring you as formality, but don't let this thing at blackface turn in to an edit war. You've reverted the same material twice, so please stop by the talk page so we can sort this out. I feel that with proper attribution the text should be OK, and don't know why you're so keen on removing it. futurebird ( talk) 03:42, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

I am not sure why you deleted the information about McMillan first offering the Lost Colony theory in 1885 when I sourced it with his bio from the North Carolina Dictionary of Biography. His bio states that he offered the theory on the 300th anniversary of the founding of the colony and the year of his election to the General Assembly. BIAIntern ( talk) 15:45, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Someone has redirected this to Mestee, which seems rather strange for a contemporary encyclopedia. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the "Mestee" article is mostly one person's work who is trying to convert the world to that term and promote his own book. Is there a way to have "tri-racial isolate" stand alone, or be the first article, rather than a redirect? It means something to anthropologists and the issues of the term relate to Melungeon, Lumbee and other groups.-- Parkwells ( talk) 21:13, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

You recently took issue with some sourced content in the article, referring to it as POV, speculative, and incorrect. I was wondering if you know of any source which backs up your claim and contradicts the current article wording. Thanks, Savidan 13:49, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
If you have a question about why I am putting books onto pages you should question me rather than accuse of spamming. This book happens to be a very good reference for anybody looking to learn more about the American Indian Movement. If I wanted to spam, I would add all of our books to wp. Please, if you have a problem with this again, go through the correct means of discussing the issue rather then editing. If you know nothing about the book than you have no room to justifiably remove it. TTUP ( talk) 21:26, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Verkempt. Is there a reason you reverted my addition of Ward Churchill to Category:Living anarchists? I'm hoping that having such a category will make it easier to distinguish historical thinking in anarchism from current trends. Nathan McKnight -- Aelffin ( talk) 12:46, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
I've redone somewhat my original proposal, something I think can get consensus support. I think it's important that we have a section about the group being referred to as terrorist. You had mentioned that Google Scholar has a lot of sources, and I'd prevously looked at a lot of sources calling the group terrorist via Google Books. I think the designation "terrorist" is either the consensus among scholars or at least the most widespread view, and I think the proposed language, while it doesn't say that, reflects it well enough. It can be tweaked a thousand times, of course, but I think it's a start that is ready to go into the article and can always be improved later. Please help me reach consensus on this, because I'd like to get it settled. I'm having a very hard time with Wikidemon on other, related pages, but settling this one will be a start toward settling our differences on those other pages. Please take a look here. And thanks for your interest so far. -- Noroton ( talk) 16:20, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Wikidemon has refused to accept the consensus of three editors to his one. I've reported his actions at See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Wikidemon being disruptive after refusing to recognize consensus. -- Noroton ( talk) 19:02, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Please note that I have created an RfC to discuss the matter of whether, how, and where we should use and cover the designation "terrorist" describe the Weathermen and their former leaders. It is located here: Talk:Weatherman (organization)/Terrorism RfC. The intent is to decide as a content matter (and not as a behavioral issue regarding the editors involved) how to deal with this question. I am notifying you because you appear to have participated in or commented about this issue before. Feel free to participate. Thank you. Wikidemon ( talk) 20:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
This is a message sent to a number of editors, and following WP:CANVASS requirements: Please take another look at Talk:Weatherman (organization)/Terrorism RfC and consider new information added near the top of the article and several new proposals at the bottom. If you haven't looked at the RfC in some time, you may find reason in the new information and new proposals to rethink the matter. -- Noroton ( talk) 02:32, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Blanking massive sections of the WC Investigation article against the consensus of the every other editor than you has become vandalism, pure and simple. Any more of this crap, and I guess I'll run it up to a user conduct RfC. The fact is, your partisan personal position has no support from any other editors, and asinine comments about your "consensus of one" don't substitute for seeking consensus.

You defused a potential edit war pursuant to the Peltier article. Good rewrite: A very neutralizing move on you part. Thanx. Albion moonlight 08:58, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Technopat 19:51, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Sorry I haven't got back to you on this. Don't think I am ignoring it - I should have time to research it in the next few days. Vizjim 20:17, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Good, helpful - and sober and well-written - stuff in "Jazz" Verklempt: keep on going/improving, don/t be shouted-so-stupidly [& sadly] down 217.42.99.130 16:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I think it's worth revisiting this issue. Unfortunately, I cannot do much about it right now -- I'm taking a wikibreak of sorts -- but I may be able to help in a few weeks, if you can wait till then. If not, please do go ahead and make the case, I think it's quite solid. Turgidson 13:09, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Please try to take the time to engage in constructive dialog rather than reverting the edits of other users. You have done it twice. Please do not break 3RR. futurebird 22:27, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
A really GREAT 4 hours work on 'Jazz' on Oct 20, Verklempt. At last someone is starting to properly sort out, prioritise and clarify "Jazz" from being an all-over-the-place mess to, finally, a the beginnings of a good article: everyone should say 'Thank You' but, sadly, I can imagine all sorts of [boring & irrelevant] stuff to come.... ! 81.156.1.40 11:35, 20 October 2007 (UTC)..... & it came: what a sad pity this would seem to be for "Jazz".... hope I'm POV free?
What is your problem? The posts I added are not opinion, This is documented in the BIA findings thru the FOIA.. This is fact and I have a copy of it. Cohen's work was discredited by everyone with a degree. His work is flawed. This is also documented within the BIA. Joslyn has done his work 'pro bono' over 15 years and along with other notable Genealogists, proved his work is flawed. Unless you can prove a college thesis holds more merit that years of experience and it's verifiable, leave it alone. Ramapoughnative 23:04, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
I'm really just waring you as formality, but don't let this thing at blackface turn in to an edit war. You've reverted the same material twice, so please stop by the talk page so we can sort this out. I feel that with proper attribution the text should be OK, and don't know why you're so keen on removing it. futurebird ( talk) 03:42, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

I am not sure why you deleted the information about McMillan first offering the Lost Colony theory in 1885 when I sourced it with his bio from the North Carolina Dictionary of Biography. His bio states that he offered the theory on the 300th anniversary of the founding of the colony and the year of his election to the General Assembly. BIAIntern ( talk) 15:45, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
I've made some edits in the article. Who knows, we might actually be able to get it back up to FA level after all.
Could you take a look at Talk:Blackface#Legacy section & respond there? Thanks. - Jmabel | Talk 05:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
Someone has redirected this to Mestee, which seems rather strange for a contemporary encyclopedia. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the "Mestee" article is mostly one person's work who is trying to convert the world to that term and promote his own book. Is there a way to have "tri-racial isolate" stand alone, or be the first article, rather than a redirect? It means something to anthropologists and the issues of the term relate to Melungeon, Lumbee and other groups.-- Parkwells ( talk) 21:13, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Cease the edit war on the Choctaw article, now, or you'll get blocked. —

You recently took issue with some sourced content in the article, referring to it as POV, speculative, and incorrect. I was wondering if you know of any source which backs up your claim and contradicts the current article wording. Thanks, Savidan 13:49, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
If you have a question about why I am putting books onto pages you should question me rather than accuse of spamming. This book happens to be a very good reference for anybody looking to learn more about the American Indian Movement. If I wanted to spam, I would add all of our books to wp. Please, if you have a problem with this again, go through the correct means of discussing the issue rather then editing. If you know nothing about the book than you have no room to justifiably remove it. TTUP ( talk) 21:26, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Verkempt. Is there a reason you reverted my addition of Ward Churchill to Category:Living anarchists? I'm hoping that having such a category will make it easier to distinguish historical thinking in anarchism from current trends. Nathan McKnight -- Aelffin ( talk) 12:46, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
I've redone somewhat my original proposal, something I think can get consensus support. I think it's important that we have a section about the group being referred to as terrorist. You had mentioned that Google Scholar has a lot of sources, and I'd prevously looked at a lot of sources calling the group terrorist via Google Books. I think the designation "terrorist" is either the consensus among scholars or at least the most widespread view, and I think the proposed language, while it doesn't say that, reflects it well enough. It can be tweaked a thousand times, of course, but I think it's a start that is ready to go into the article and can always be improved later. Please help me reach consensus on this, because I'd like to get it settled. I'm having a very hard time with Wikidemon on other, related pages, but settling this one will be a start toward settling our differences on those other pages. Please take a look here. And thanks for your interest so far. -- Noroton ( talk) 16:20, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Wikidemon has refused to accept the consensus of three editors to his one. I've reported his actions at See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Wikidemon being disruptive after refusing to recognize consensus. -- Noroton ( talk) 19:02, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
I appreciate your comments there. I think you got confused with this edit though: [4] -- Noroton ( talk) 00:34, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
Please note that I have created an RfC to discuss the matter of whether, how, and where we should use and cover the designation "terrorist" describe the Weathermen and their former leaders. It is located here: Talk:Weatherman (organization)/Terrorism RfC. The intent is to decide as a content matter (and not as a behavioral issue regarding the editors involved) how to deal with this question. I am notifying you because you appear to have participated in or commented about this issue before. Feel free to participate. Thank you. Wikidemon ( talk) 20:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
This is a message sent to a number of editors, and following WP:CANVASS requirements: Please take another look at Talk:Weatherman (organization)/Terrorism RfC and consider new information added near the top of the article and several new proposals at the bottom. If you haven't looked at the RfC in some time, you may find reason in the new information and new proposals to rethink the matter. -- Noroton ( talk) 02:32, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Blanking massive sections of the WC Investigation article against the consensus of the every other editor than you has become vandalism, pure and simple. Any more of this crap, and I guess I'll run it up to a user conduct RfC. The fact is, your partisan personal position has no support from any other editors, and asinine comments about your "consensus of one" don't substitute for seeking consensus.

I only noticed today you added the Controversy section to his article, thanks for writing it. His article unfortunately was completely unbalanced without it. Cheers. -- Maarten1963 ( talk) 22:34, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
