Talk:R.A.B./Archive 2

message: Recently I made some changes to the article with a full edit summary, including removing candidates that were original research and did not even have initials of R.A.B, or even R.B.  I also made other changes that were described.  Sandpiper reverted many of my changes while only saying "What's wrong with Amy Benson." Therefore, I am restoring all other changes while keeping Amy Benson in the article temporarily.  I am only allowing the Benson info to stay one week without a source.  After that, I will assume it is original research and it will be removed.  I ask all editors to please cooperate.  This is Wikipedia policy.  If anyone has any other issues with my edit beyond the Amy Benson protest in the Sandpiper revert, they should describe them here.  Do not revert without explanation.

:Also, Sandpiper added a discussion forum back in with a misleading edit summary stating only that J.K.R endorses mugglenet and The Leaky Cauldron.  He did not explain why the forum should be there, and I already explained that it should be removed because the participants are non-notable.  If you have a specific reason to add the forum link again, explain it here.  Otherwise, please do not. Superm401 | Talk 00:21, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
:Specifically, when I say I am restoring other changes, here is what I am doing in that edit.
#Remove link from horcrux, because otherwise "emphasis added" note needed.
#The trio do not investigate the R.A.B mystery, so remove note stating otherwise.
#Remove subjective OR about "no better fit" and lack of clues because searching for clues and determining what is best fit are OR
#Remove note about Kreacher's craziness, which is pure OR
#Remove Borgin, Burkes because there is no proof of R or A, making them blatant speculation and OR.
#Possibly very minor changes elsewhere.

::Maybe you didn't read all of the comments in the discussion links on the bottom of the article, and i can't blame you for that, but how can you remove stuff for being OR if you didn't even read the sources?
::Besides, leaving Amy Benson in but not Borgin makes no sense whatsoever. Quit replacing other theories by your own, this is an encyclopedia not your own HP fan site. Removing a character solely based on the reason that his first name is not known yet is not a very good reason you know.
::That you speak of removing Burke already shows that you do not know where you are talking about, for we already know Burkes first name, Caracactus, so we know he cannot be RAB, and was therefor not listed as a possibility in the piece you have removed. --62.251.90.73 10:06, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I did not keep Amy Benson in because I think she's RAB(IMHO, given her name (NO R) and the fact that she's a muggle, that's completely ridiculous speculation).  I kept it in because she was the only character contested in the edit summary.  See my comments at bottom of the page. Superm401 | Talk 01:39, September 2, 2005 (UTC)
The current revision appears to be reasonable. Would it be too much for both parties to live with it? --Sn0wflake 02:11, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
