The opinions Tisthammer is insisting on adding are NOT about Josephson OR about Natasha Demkina. They're about Profs. Hyman, Wiseman, and me. Josephson has nothing really to say about Natasha. Instead, he argues that we're a bunch of unethical crooks. That appears to be why Tisthammer wants the link added. And he doesn't care that it violates Wiki guidelines. He says he's willing to compromise by allowing me to add a statement or two denying that we're a bunch of unethical crooks. He calls that a compromise. 

This is Tisthammer's idea of mediation: Immediately take a side and argue for it by misrepresenting Wikipedia guidelines and the meaning of words like "primary source." Josephson is no primary source. He's never met Natasha, never tested her, never spoke with her and his only personal knowledge of the Discovery Channel program comes from watching it like millions of other TV viewers. He's no more a "primary source" than is Tisthammer himself.

If Tishammer wants to create a new Wiki article on Josephson's fights with skeptics, he should do so and stop pretending he's a mediator. There's much too much bilge in this discussion page already.  13:39
