Request for cabal mediation

Request Information

Request made by: haz ( user talk) 10:37, 23 January 2006 (UTC) reply
Where is the issue taking place?
In the article Jack Abramoff and its talk page.
Who's involved?
Myself, Kwh and the IP 62.0.181.94.
What's going on?
The anonymous contributor is vandalising the page, making contributions to it against WP:NPOV and adding attack entries to the article's talk page (and talk pages of involved users)
What would you like to change about that?
The case needs a mediator to get the anonymous user to back down (the basis of the dispute is anti-Semitism; the user appears to be Jewish and takes a personal view to the man behind the article). I would prefer this not to lead to the user being banned, xe just needs to change xyr ways.
If you'd prefer we work discreetly, how can we reach you?

I wanted to add this summary which I contributed at Wikipedia:Wikiquette alerts:

  • Anonymous IP editor User:62.0.181.94 at Talk:Jack Abramoff insists upon making uncivil and insulting suggestions of antisemitism. Editor has indicated by their edits that they are the same person/entity as User:85.250.166.7, User:62.0.170.46, and User:85.250.217.240.
    • Although user insists that they are a 'group of people' (and may well be) the IP has only changed in each case once the user(s) earned a ban, indicating ban evasion.
    • Has engaged in WP:POINT in the past. [1]
    • Has engaged in content removal [2] [3], article vandalism [4], and user page vandalism [5].
    • Has launched personal attacks and threats of continued vandalism (and hacking) on user's and article talk pages after being warned against content removal. [6]
    • Continually reverts removal of personal attacks and threats from article talk page. [7]
    • Consistently fails to use edit summaries or sign talk pages. [8] [9]
    • Has indicated that their intention is "to stir up trouble". [10]
    • Has engaged in taunting via baseless accusations on Talk pages. [11] [12] [13]
    • Has continually accused me of making edits which were made by other users, together with personal attacks. [14]
    • Has removed clarifications from talk pages to continue to falsely accuse me personally of making edits which were made by other users. [15]
    • Has engaged in legal threats by talking about writing a letter to "Jimmy and the WIK board" [16]
    • Has engaged in personal attacks by implying that another editor is a "Jewish SELF HATER" [17]
    • Has shown disdain for Wikipedia civility policy after it was explained. [18]
    • Is refactoring other editors Talk: comments in a manner which is dismissive and abrasive (The other editor has a "comment", this editor has the "answer".) [19]
    • This has previously been reported to WP:AIV and was rejected as "not vandalism per se". Kwh 16:04, 23 January 2006 (UTC) reply
Also noted: Mediation with regards to this particular editor was requested in a past case, which was withdrawn when User:85.250.166.7 was blocked. - Kwh 17:17, 23 January 2006 (UTC) reply
I'm stepping away from this one for a while until someone else cares to do something about it. I think this editor has made an adequate case against themselves. - Kwh 18:29, 23 January 2006 (UTC) reply
