Hey group,
The results of the Mmeiser’s Wikipedia ban are here.  See what
each Wikipedia Administrator had to say about it:

  “I fail to see why there should be any consideration of a ban.
Unreferenced material is not welcome on Wikipedia.”

  “Agreed. The argument for a ban reads exactly like ‘this
person won't let me put original research in the article and this is
unfair’”

  “Agreed as well. I don't see a bit of misbehavior here, let
alone anything that calls for a ban. We do not accept unverifiable
material or original research, period, and I'll happily buy a beer for
anyone that upholds that.”

  “Is it just me, and I don't mean to sound bad faith here, or
isn't User:MichaelVerdi <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:MichaelVerdi>
very knowldgable about this situation for a user with an 11 hour old
account? Maybe they editted the pages as an IP? Its just weird that
User:MichaelVerdi is the only one supporting Michael Meiser's
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mmeiser>  suggestion. I hope they're
aware of WP:MEAT <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:MEAT> . Apologies if
I'm wrongheaded here”

“This is almost nothing but an attack. Close, and archive. I'm
going to go ahead and call a spade a spade, and point out that the
poster of this complaint has failed to assume good fiath
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:AGF> .”

  “See no reason for a ban. This is retaliation to the post above.
Archive and suggest they cool down and sort this issue out via dispute
resolution <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DR> .”

I hope that we can put the issue to rest and consider that perhaps
there's a possibility that I perchance might have perhaps been trying to
improve the article and not the other way around.




and now ladies and gentlemen, ...your moment of zen. (please accept this
as humour with only a tinge of bitterness)


"This user - Pdelongchamp - constantly fucks with the entry. [...] It's
pathetic. I can't believe Meiser still has the patience to try work on
the article as his changes usually get deleted within hours."
-Michael Verdi
