Thanks Austin. As Austin is a list moderator, I take this as an official public warning to me, from the list moderators, that my way of highlighting to Wil of the nature of who he was actively promoting on this list, was not acceptable behaviour by me on this list. My email was not intended as an allegation nor mudslinging, but as an assertion of publicly documented fact. It should be noted that Andreas Kolbe provided links and extracts of the evidence on this list at <http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2014-May/072154.html>. Kohs' use of a word that demeans and derides all gay people was not acceptable on Wikipediocracy, the website that Kohs owns, and after some discussion there, was removed from public view under the site terms of use(*). I am certain that Andreas would be happy to address further questions by direct email to him as a Wikipediocracy moderator with access to the original material, rather than continuing to correspond about it on this public forum with only links available of partial representations of it. * - Wikipediocracy's terms include "You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated or any other material that may violate any laws be it of your country, the country where “Wikipediocracy” is hosted or International Law." Wil remains free to post exactly how he pleases on any forum, this is up to his discretion, I hope he continues to enjoy and respect the freedom to do so. My apologies to readers of this list for any misunderstanding that my taking part might have caused. It was not my intention to abuse any free speech rights for anyone else, but to fairly exercise my own with regard to a serious incident of LGBT interest.
