Talk:Bill Jones (California politician)

message: I am responding to the Request for Comment. It seems peculiar that someone should file a RfC when there has been no previous discussion whatsoever. Regarding the specific question -- how much detail should be included on the spamming episode -- it looks about right to me as is. --HK 15:33, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the reference to the spamming seems noteworthy and properly sourced -- I'll keep this page on my watchlist. --HK 23:33, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

text: The only problem I had with the spam section is that it was about 90% of the section on the Gubernatorial run.  I think (perhaps naively) that people were trying editing down the spam portion to make it commensurate with the rest of the section.  But the problem was that the gubernatorial section was too short and had too few details.  Editors should have expanded the rest of the gubernatorial run section, rather than cutting down the spam section.  Still, I think it’d be helpful to, as always, asssume good faith, rather than call people vandals and accuse them of whitewashing.  I'd also like to thank Dananderson for adding the subsections.  That's something I planned on doing, but he's the one who took the initiative to actually do it.Jim Campbell 01:02, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  At least some of the edits in question weren't edits for space or balance, but complete removal of the spamming incident.  That's whitewashing. Efalk (talk) 15:41, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

message: The site http://www.billjonessucks.com/ was removed as a spam link.  It's clearly not spam, but I'm hesitant to restore it since I'm not familiar with wikipedia's policies on critical "attack" sites. Efalk (talk) 15:29, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
