you quickly forget that i am objecting to the misinterpretation of a 'rule' and the misapplication of a 'rule' or do you not concede that hypothetically a valid proper rule can be misinterpreted and or misapplied merely citing the rule is pointless when the problem is the misinterpretation or misapplication of the rule further dodo violated wp rules by not allowing a consensus of the group to develop he also misapplied a rule claiming that something i said must be 'verifiable' but what does it mean to be 'verified' dodo implied that what i said must be verifiably scientifically true i claim quite to the contrary that since the article involved is 'jim bell' subject me that the only 'verifiability' issue is this did 'james dalton bell' actually make these claims or conversely and hypothetically 'is someone else forging his identity etc for example there was no need to rush and delete my posts rather somebody preferably one familiar with logic could have said bell how do we know that 'you' 'jimdbell q com' is in fact the 'jim bell' james dalton bell who is the subject of the 'jim bell' wp article we need to be able to verify the fact that 'jim bell' actually said did this to ensure that 'jim bell' is not being libelled by a stealth forgery in response i would have immediately said good question and i could have promptly proceeded to do whatever was necessary to establish this fact perhaps i could also have donated a recent current photograph to the article which of course could be compared with other published even if not public domain photographs which are available on the web but as john belushi was so fond of saying 'but nooooooooooo ' rather than help a 'newbie' to wp and wait for a consensus and actually help verify that 'jimdbell q com' is actually 'jim bell' dodo decided to be an ass and repeatedly delete my edits and he deleted all my edits not merely some portion which allegedly was not 'verifiable' i will give an example to the contrary i also posted a claim that i accused the feds of forgery in a criminal appeal case in fact in june i wrote a lawsuit pages which has i believe long been posted on the web probably cryptome jya it as i recall makes exactly this accusation so if dodo had actually acted intelligently he would have edited my edit to cite my lawsuit which has been posted for perhaps years or he would have said to me bell you need to show a cite of your lawsuit that would have been productive useful and helpful as opposed to being hostile counterproductive and malicious so why didn't dodo do that the answer is quite simple dodo is hostile counterproductive and malicious he's a 'control freak' apparently wp attracts 'control freaks' rather than being assisting supportive and helpful dodo wants to slap around newbies who upset his apple cart
