[edit] Message Replies
I agree that Bateson is unclear, and I don't think this can be settled without the original reference. I've added a comment to that effect in Talk:Gregory Bateson#Difference in Information or Bit.3F. If we could tag it with something like Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup#Verifiability and sources, then I'd be happy to leave it as-is for now. (I think it's an important quote and it's worth the effort to get it right.) Vagary 21:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 3RR
As you're reverting a lot at New anti-Semitism, I want to make sure you've been told about the 3RR rule. Any undoing of another editor's work, in whole or in part, whether involving the same material or different material each time, is a revert; and only three of those are allowed in 24 hours. Please review WP:3RR carefully. Many thanks, SlimVirgin (talk) 16:23, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ben's "big three issues" with NAS article
Going forward, I suggest a focus on dealing with these three issues with the NAS article. If we can effectively tackle these at least my concerns over the article will be addressed. My "big three issues" with the NAS articles are as follows:
- Neutering critics
- Confusing evidence with NAS's interpretation
- Article is about modern NAS theory, not term
What do you think? --Ben Houston 22:02, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] EUMC
Hi Pertn, and thanks for your message. The document I have been looking at recently is the EUMC report that was cited as the source of the definition endorsed by the UK all-party committee. Actually, it wasn't the source of the definition, but it is still an important source in its own right and if we could work together to summarise it accurately, that would be great. My ideal long-term solution is to work up articles on Antisemitism in the nineteenth century, Antisemitism in the twentieth century and Antisemitism in the twenty-first century, which would be historical accounts of events and ideas rather than an attempt to write an article around a set of controversial viewpoints.Itsmejudith 12:12, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Waste of Time
Dear Pertn:
I believe you to be the owner of Ryodox's Xanga Weblog and a blatent sock puppet for Ryodox based upon the apparent similarities in your pattern of nonsensical editing with the exception of 1 appropriate revert to the Jimmy Carter article. Please refrain from being a nuisance.

Hi, mr detective. The only correct thing with your entry here is the title. I do not have the faintest clue about what you are talking about. Have never heard of "Rydox" and frankly, my entries aren't nonsense. pertn 20:19, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] I Heart Fjords, Tall Aloof Blondness, & PEACEFUL PROSPERITY: in short, I LOVE NORWAY!
Hey -- saw your question/comment on 'my' talk page regarding my "controversial edits" -- I assume you are referring to my recent edits on the Israel lobby in the United States page. I'm not so sure what is controversial about my edits though; I'm just restating things that other notable people have already said/wrote, trying to make this important info more widely available. But how about this: I'll register/log in if you can get me a passport and/or citizenship so that I can come and live in beautiful, peaceful, glowing, frische-Luft, uncontroversial, equitable income distribution + universal healthcare Norway. How about it? Does that sound like an even trade? But seriously though: do you think that certain strains of antisemitism have been increasing there in Norway and/or Scandinavia as a whole in the last few years? If so, I'd like to read your perceptions/thoughts/ideas on this resurgence. Thanks! --172.128.131.86 14:30, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Good to hear that you know a little bit about Norway, and even a little something about our self-perception it seems. Oh yeah, of course you could come here! If you are from the EU, you don't need a visa or anything, and jobs are in abundance (seriously). I do not remember your edit, really. I did not say YOUR EDIT was controversial, I said you were editing a controversial topic. in New Antisemitism there has been dreadful and boring revert-war and you stepped right into it. Your edits will probably be removed soon by someone, just kind of caught in the crossfire. When it comes to a "resurgence" of antismeitism in Norway, I must be plain and say that the answer is No. There is no evidence to this. I know a few people on the far left, in the antiglobalization movement and so on, and I have no indication at all that they are antisemites. I find it quite absurd to discuss it also, when the anti-muslim and anti-arab sentiments are so much more common and so much stronger both in Europe in general and in Norway and especially given the fact that the people crying "wolf" about the "new antisemitism" often are people who themselves express great prejudice against arabs and muslims. pertn 14:47, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
