Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Winter Soldier 2/Evidence

message: I have not presented all available evidence of edit warring by the parties of this case, but it looks to me like I'm at or maybe even past my word limit. If the committee wishes to read more of this evidence, let me know and I'll add it. Heimstern Läufer (talk) 07:07, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You may need to gather up the remainder of your evidence, at least as it pertains to me.  While my editing practices are far from perfect, preliminary review of what you have presented thus far leads me to believe you will fall short of substantiating your claim that I "frequently engaged in sustained edit-warring."  I would appreciate it if you could lay all of your concerns on the table for a complete airing, regardless of space constraints.  If I am going to learn anything from this process, I think it would be best if you aren't holding anything back.  TIA, Xenophrenic (talk) 03:23, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Further evidence 

message: I did not come to Wikipedia as a clueless newbie.  I have edited on several Fan and Gamer wikis; less structured and more hormone-driven editing than here due to the youthful demographic, but I do have basic editing skills.  I've been communicating online since the days when Compuserve was king, and their Forums on a multitude of topics were the premier repository of publicly accessible information.  Yes, odds are I am older than you.  I live on the West Coast, USA; I'm a political moderate; university educated; married, and my family will not stand for me spending too much free time on this project.
I am impressed with Wikipedia.  It pops up with increasing frequency through all aspects of my everyday computer usage, whether browsing, conducting research or doing queries.  I have found it exceptionally useful on numerous occasions, but I have never been motivated enough to "give back" to the project as an editor until recently.  Through a confluence of events, I became interested enough to make edits to the VVAW article.  Ironically, after reviewing talk page discussions about the article, my first inclination was to edit from a position counter to one of the Earthlink editors, since I thought I disagreed with the quality of some of the content s/he provided.  After creating an account and making a couple false starts at trying to edit, I shelved the task until I could do more research.  When I eventually did return, and after discovering it wasn't the Earthlink users content I had trouble with, I selected this account name and made an edit.  An easy one: I took out a couple unsourced sentences that were directly counter to the information I had just read in the talk pages.  I had taken the plunge!  Then I realized there was more unsourced content, and content that had been disputed, etc.  It would be a few more weeks of research, source collection and talk page review before I would edit again, but edit I did.
The preceding is not pointless narrative.  It is in response to several questions asked of me in public and private, and also in response to several assertions made in relation to this case.  It isn't exactly Evidence Page material, so I stuck it here for now.  Xenophrenic (talk) 08:31, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Not relevant enough for prime time: Background on Xenophrenic

message: Thanks to Chasers inadvertent cc’ing me on an email to Xenophrenic (which he still has not apologized for, but a fortunate mistake none the less for me), I can present additional evidence that Xenophrenic is the anon user from the prior arbitration case. Although one is a homtail account and the other is a yahoo account, the email address of the anon from the prior Arbcom and Xenophrenic are nearly identical and fairly peculiar in their choice of names. The names, by the way, are also what led me to suspect user:Reddi as the puppeteer. If any of the arbiters would like a private email, with the evidence, let me know.
