Evidence presented by User:Newbyguesses

Mantanmoreland mis-states the case

MM's evidence--

Sockpuppeting

...Most of the contents of this page have been on the ASM website for well over a year. If Judd Bagley, Overstock's spokesman and operator of ASM, were not coordinating this, I am sure he would have a case for copyright infringement...(User:Mantanmoreland)

That is the same old argument, it is easily refuted. All known socks of WB are listed at Category:Misplaced Pages sockpuppets of WordBomb and none of them have posted to the arbcom. case, as far as i can see.

Mantanmoreland sets the agenda

MM's evidence--

(user:mantanmoreland)--The rest of his *Cla68's* "evidence" relates to the raw deal he supposedly has gotten through much of his wiki-life, and has nothing to do with this arbitration.

With respect Mantan, it is for the arbitrators to decide what is to do with this arbitration, not yourself.

Mantanmoreland appeals to the wrong peer group

MM's evidence--

The editors who know Sami and I best, and are not necessarily friends of either of us, believe quite firmly that we are different people based on writing style and the positions we took, and didn't take, in 600-odd emails. (User:Mantanmoreland)

Mantan, it is not a matter of the editors who know you best, but of all the WPeditors, most of whom have never met you; they are your peers.

Non-notability

Mr. Weiss, Mr. Bagley and Naked short selling are apparently notable, since there are reliable souces such as the New York Times. Where are the citations evident for Naked short selling or Bagley, or Weiss, in the Australian newspaper, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age (Melbourne), or The Gaurdian newspaper. Naked short selling is no more notable, globally, than is *Clothed tall buying*.

It may well be the case that no-one, outside of Bagley and Weiss and the sock-puppets they have manufactured and the acolytes they have garnered, has any interest in this topic. There is no gain whatsoever for en.wikipedia to become embroiled in a petty stoush between two cantankerous and untrustworthy parties. en.Misplaced Pages ought not to be involved, we have better things to do. These are not matters for an encyclopedia. I do not believe sending articles to Afd is necessarily the expected outcome from an Arbcom. case. Nevertheless, if these articles were deleted, en.Misplaced Pages would be the richer.
