Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Saladin1970 appeal/Workshop

On User:PHDrillSergeant & others unremitting defense

Saladin's evidence section is long on text and short on actual evidence. In fact, most of what he has written shows contempt (not only for proof-reading, but) for the process. Highly idiosyncratic style and grammar, strange spaces which scroll the page ten fold and so on — I just changed that now, but it was there from the 1st edit since the page was open, on June 4 — was anyone able to read it? Did anyone read it? Anyone? Meanwhile, Jayjg & SlimVirgin have provided a disturbing and well-documented account. So why do we have User:PHDrillSergeant & others claiming this is an average new user? It appears questionable. P.S. I await the appeal of User:General Tojo with an especial trepidation! El_C 11:27, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

I was willing to take a look at it; but I suspect that consideration of repeatedly inserting links to a Wikipedia attack site will doom his appeal. Jayjg and SlimVirgin have been patient rather than hasty. I wish he had been more reasonable. I want to see the Islamist and Palestinian perspective represented here. The editing problems we could have lived with. The hostile bantering, no. Fred Bauder 12:06, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for responding, Fred. Not quite as User:General Tojo-specific as I'd hoped for, but I am nonetheless satisfied with that reply. El_C 12:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Hang on a Mo. I did not repeatedly insert a link to a wikipedia attack site. I added a link once to the site in question, and WHILST i was continuing to edit on the same occassion some nowiki tags appeared which I removed, look at the log of changes between 8.30 and 8.52. We both editited at the same time, and so it appeared as an error when i tried to save.. Only after i had finished my edit session did slimvirgin ask me not to link to it , And SO I DIDNT. Check the log.

and also the formatting issue, someone complained that it was unreadable in one paragraph so i am attempting to format it so that it is readable. Why is it that on every single occasion i try to help wikipedia, edit so that it more reasonable I get condemned.Saladin1970 14:53, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
