You ask that users not post replies to your comment on Jimbo's page and that they post here instead. When they do as you ask you remove their comments without replying. So is it that you refuse to discuss anything with any user you don't happen to agree with? I think you will find that attitude will be an impediment to your having a productive wiki-career.

== Clearing the air == |
|||
Hi! |
|||
I wanted to stop by to clear the air after the earlier thread at ANI. |
|||
Editors - people in general, even, and me in particular - often focus on ''disagreements'' rather than ''agreements'', even when the agreements vastly outweigh the disagreements. It occurred to me in hindsight that your main point - that swearing is undesirable and unhelpful - is a point well made, and not one I would disagree with. Again, in hindsight, focussing on our differences rather than our common beliefs was unhelpful, and I'd like to apologise. |
|||
Promoting civil conduct on Wikipedia should be applauded, and I don't feel my arguments earlier were appropriate in this regard. I actually feel my comments were slightly [[WP:POINT|pointy]], and for that, too, I'd like to apologise. |

Abuse of Power

Cartoons
Rather than blame the cartoonist, we need to blame the Muslims who have killed because of the cartoon. They are the real criminals, not the cartoonist. We need to blame the Radical Despot Leaders who insite this violence. They are the true masterminds of human rights abuse. This is the Canadian Way. (Robin, Canada)
The goal of Radical Islam is to censor the press. It looks like our Human Rights Tribunals are helping them to achieve their aims.
By behaving like Bullies, and Spoiled Brats. By throwing tantrums at every perceived offense, (a riot here, a car bomb there) they are causing our own institutions turn against their own citizens, and are actually HELPING the Taliban and Al-Qaeda to suppress our freedom of speech.
Rather than blame the cartoonist, we need to blame the Muslims who have killed because of the cartoon. They are the real criminals, not the cartoonist. We need to blame the Radical Despot Leaders who insite this violence. They are the true masterminds of human rights abuse.
Rather than cower away, we need to STAND UP TO THESE BULLIES and say: "Look. We are not afraid of you. We are not babies like you, crying over cartoons. We will say anything we wish, and you will never cause us to shut our mouths."
This is the Canadian way.
Sincerely, Robin, Canada
Thanks!

Online Quran Project
I am not quite sure why you have added '\\Notability|1=web\\' to the Online Quran Project - which sources and template are you referring to? Best regard --Imdkzmaa (talk) 19:35, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Vulgarity
I guess we are some of the few editors who actually believe in keeping discussion civil and free from unnecessary vulgarity. I applaud you for it! Basket of Puppies 21:35, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

confused by your refusal to respond
You ask that users not post replies to your comment on Jimbo's page and that they post here instead. When they do as you ask you remove their comments without replying.

Clearing the air
Hi!
I wanted to stop by to clear the air after the earlier thread at ANI.
Editors - people in general, even, and me in particular - often focus on disagreements rather than agreements, even when the agreements vastly outweigh the disagreements. It occurred to me in hindsight that your main point - that swearing is undesirable and unhelpful - is a point well made, and not one I would disagree with. Again, in hindsight, focussing on our differences rather than our common beliefs was unhelpful, and I'd like to apologise.
Promoting civil conduct on Wikipedia should be applauded, and I don't feel my arguments earlier were appropriate in this regard. I actually feel my comments were slightly pointy, and for that, too, I'd like to apologise.
