== Advocacy Case Status ==
Hello, I submitted an AMA request and earlier responded to your lastest talk to me. Unfortunately I don't check my wiki page everyday so it seems my case was closed somewhere between our posts. I am still however very interested in seeking another opinion on this issue if you can see my resopnse on your advocacy page. Thanks! ] 00:24, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

== Mediation @ the ] article ==
Hi there! I have taken the mediation case listed ]. I have replied on the article's talk page, so if you could reply there with your perspective on this issue that would be great! Hopefully we can work things out. Cheers, ''']'']'']''' 07:37, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
:Regarding your question on my talk page, I wish I could accept the solution, but this would not resolve the dispute. I have already offered a compromise where '''both''' DDT and Theraplay could be mentioned in the article, just not in the '''See Also''' section. I still believe this is the best way forward, although I respect the advocate's suggestion (keep in mind that it is his duty to be biased in favour of his client, while I am striving to listen to both sides).

== User:Sarner ==

I came back from a day away from Misplaced Pages and found that a fight had broken out on my talk page between you two, and that he had nominated the article in question for deletion. I looked through your contributions, and I didn't quickly find any incivility coming from you. However, the best way to get this to stop is to disengage. Do not respond to his messages except once, when you have to, and take any further misbehavior to ] if he continues to be a problem. ]]<sup>]</sup> 01:23, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

:Actually, one more thing. Be careful with the term "vandalism". Vandalism does not mean edits you don't agree with, it means edits that are obviously and inarguably inappropriate. I appreciate that you feel harassed, but you shouldn't leave vandalism warnings on editors who disagree with your edits; save those for editors who are actually trying to damage Misplaced Pages. ]]<sup>]</sup> 02:03, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

::I agree. I'd considered his edits to the page vandalism because he added numerious "citation" tags; after nearly every sentance, which cluttered up the article. His website actually provided the basis (or reliable source) for most of what he wanted sources for. However, it I am mistaken is labeling that as vandalism, then please do correct me so I don't labor under any false assumptions. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. ] 02:19, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

:::IMO, that's a contentious edit, but really, I just HATE that {{tl|fact}} tag. People use it as a very public way of criticizing an article; they should just put {{tl|unreferenced}} at the top of the article and leave it be, or take it to the talk page. But vandalism? Not when you know the guy has a problem with the neutrality of the content; then you know he's actually trying to ask for references for every sentence, as unreasonable as that might be. ]]<sup>]</sup> 02:27, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

== Welcome aboard the AMA :-) ==

I'm glad to see a new name on the list. :-) Welcome and thanks for signing up! As you've probably already guessed by now (by the message you left me on my talk page), I'm ] the Acting Coordinator. Basically, my job is to tend the ] page and divvy up the cases as they come in. If you need any help with your first couple of cases (or any of your cases, for that matter) don't hesitate to leave me a message on ] or ]. Some people think that this volunteer work can take a few tries to completely get the hang of, but in my experience, by using common sense it is easy, fun and rewarding. Some times, though, Advocacy ''can'' hit you with something completely out of left field, unexpected, so it is a good thing to get extra opinions from your fellow Advocates when you need to. As the old platitude goes: The worst question is a question left unasked.

Seeing how you've set yourself up with the AMA Alerts board and the userboxes, I assume that you've already gone over the ] and the ]. If you'd like you can peruse through one of my latest projects, the ], which is far from complete, but when finished will be a quick-reference guide to common scenarios and various policies within the context of a case.

If you feel confident, I have a case that would probably be suited to you as a first run. Head on over to ] and you'll see that I've made a notice under ]'s case that it is "pending on" you. When a case is "pending on" an Advocate, that means that I've asked them to consider it, and if after reading over all of the information posted (as well as clicking the "read full description" link) they're able, they need to do two things:

#Set ''(pending)'' in the title to ''(open)''
#Sign under my comment, with something like "<nowiki>:Accepted. ~~~~</nowiki>"

This tells me that they're on the case and working with the user who requested it.

Now when the case is finished, head back over to ] and set ''(open)'' to ''(closed)''. That tells me that you're finished and that I can archive the case.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me :-)

Peace!

== Advocacy ==

Thank you so much for being able to help me in this instance. The discussions are at ] and ]. My desired outcome is a consensus on this issue, but, judging from the incivility, I doubt that would happen. I guess that I'd just like to know what I should do next and how I should go about doing that. Thank you very much. — ] 17:09, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

It's the ] page that the argument occured on. When Zulu is refered to on the Sesotho page, it refers to it as isiZulu and not Zulu like (I believe) it should. — ] 18:56, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I've been busy moving lately. Don't worry about handling it personally; I can take care of that, but if I ever need any help later, I'll be sure to ask you. I just am really busy right now, but I'll get around to it. Thanks. — ] 02:29, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Heyo, ] here. There is a ] by ] (]) on ]. Would you be willing to take their case? If you will, please leave a note and sign under the entry on ] and change "(pending)" in the heading to "(open)." When you're finished with the case, set it to "(closed)". If you're not able to take the case, please leave me a message on ] so I can continue searching for a willing Advocate. Many thanks!

==AMA request==
] began an edit war on ] and then had the page protected under his version, despite other editors wishing the previous version. He then will not discuss the issues and does not seem willing to consider other points of view. I set up a poll and despite it not being in his favor, he continue to not accept the consensus. I requested mediation and he refused to participate in that. I also think he abused his admin priv by editing the page despite it being protected. (I am not sure how to report this if that is the case). He states that the section he removed is not verifiable and has not citations. on the talk page many have provided citations and websites to support the statement that neither the American Medican Associaiton, American Psychological Association, American Psychiatric Association, NASW, or APSAC use ACT's information despite ACT's efforts to do so. He is REQUIRING that I find evidence that each group states, "We do not recognize the ACT." But that is not my point...only that ACT is an advocacy group and tries to influence those orgs and has not been successful. The talk page for ] and the section above have the dialogue on these points. <font color="Red">]</font><sup>]</sup> 01:27, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

== Raelism Advocacy ==

I have entered into a discussion with said IP Address in question on the discussion of the Raelism article and am seeing what justifcations are being presented for the obfuscation that was being perpetrated in the article. That is where this issue is at for your apprisal of the situation so far. Thank you for your continued advocacy.] 22:35, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

:The issue was that this poster (the still anonymous IP address which you can find which unfortunately fluctuates due to them not having a permanet Wiki account) got into an editting war over linking to the intelligent design from the Raelism when other than name and the most basic tenet of the concept of being created by an outside force, the ideas are nothing alike memetically speaking. It'd be like claiming that burritos and sandwiches are the same because they're both a flour based product filled with a meat or vegetable product. We were having a discussion about this on the talk wherein the poster skirts the issue of getting an account the whole time, which makes my discussion point on the page "''the link is a false classification reading either as an attempt to legitimize Raelism by linking it to a generally accepted concept as being of Christian origin, or by trying to make the Christian idea of ID seem even more foolish by linking them to what has been called several times in the press "A UFO cult,"''" seem to be true while my original idea that "''should someone want to create a separate page wherein the differences between how the Raelians view those subjects (and virtually every other group unilaterally views them), as long as it is not made up of original research, then full steam ahead. Otherwise, since the Raelian belief structure is so different from how the terms are universally viewed, it is misleading to leave those links on the page only for people using them to find out that the way (for example) ID as viewed by the general populace, and government, is completely different to, and therefore lacks any relevance to, Raelian cosmology,''" was not opposed by any of the regular users (who actually have accounts) who've worked on/contributed to the Raelism page itself in the past.] 19:46, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
::My proposal, if any would be that unless something specifically shares a memetic trait with something, they not be linked, especially in a religious concept. ''Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back'' has lightsabers, Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher, but I just can't call it ''Star Wars 7'' if I want. If we want to set up a poll, fine, but the original discussion proposal I made is now several weeks old, and none of the other regular users had a problem. Maybe the page could be made only accessible to members or something. otherwise, I'm happy. ] 01:00, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Poll: Should references from the page to other articles, and vice versa be based on the ideas simply having the same name, or should they be linked due to the actual content of the concept?

== Speaking as your Advocate... ==

DPeterson, after looking over the entire rigamaole I have some points that I feel that I honestly need to go over with you. Yes, FCYTravis is not being ] and is rather stubborn, but in all honesty I strongly believe that he has a point. I'm not 100% sure what your stance on ] is, nor what your exposure to ] is, but the additions that you are writing into the article are not completely within the spirit of Misplaced Pages and no matter how many times I read over them, myself, I can't help but get the feeling like it is an attempt to discredit ACT. I do understand how you want the article to reflect that they are not within "the mainstream," but we need to find a way that does this within the letter and the spirit of the Misplaced Pages's Rules and Guidelines. What would you like to see this article emphasize? <small>]</small> <tt><b><font color="#0033CC">]</font></b></tt> <sub><B><font color="#000000">(]/])</font></B></sub> 23:24, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
:Thanks for your observations...that quells a lot of my angst. I think what I'd like at this point is for the page to state, as it does as of this moment, that, "Professional medical and psychiatric organizations such as the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, the American Psychiatric Association and the National Association of Social Workers have not taken positions on ACT's work, although these groups do seek and use input from various other advocacy groups. (http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/4134.html) ( http://www.apa.org/releases/teachersneeds.html) (http://www.phrusa.org/research/torture/pdf/psych_torture.pdf) (http://www.psych.org/news_room/media_advisories/mediaadvisory.cfm) ( http://www.naswdc.org/pace/default.asp) "
Note: I put in all those links to satisfy FCYTravis, but don't really think they are necessary. However if you do, then that's fine with me. I suppose this is one of the central roles of an advocate; to present options and advice in a way that ends disputes...being a trusted ally makes those comments and recommendations much more acceptable. Thanks. <font color="Red">]</font><sup>]</sup> 16:33, 17 September 2006 (UTC)



== Your "warning" ==
I'm sick of these ridiculous warnings. I suggest that you carefully read the wikipedia guidelines before leaving another baseless warning on my talk page. Articles need references and that is that. If you're concerned with my motivations, please look at my contrib history. You'll see that I sputter wikipedia around cleaning up articles. The ACT article led me to the others. This same reply can be found on my talk page. ] 17:25, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

As you know, you have recently posted two vandalism warnings on my user talk page. Please stop. I have not been vandalizing anything on Misplaced Pages, but making good faith edits. I once had an administrator caution me about bringing false charges of vandalism. He said:

We have an open ] regarding ]. The disputes on that page are distinct from the issues on ]. I don't think it'd be productive to merge unrelated disputes (they're only related because the same people are involved) into one mediation case.

::::To repeat what I'd stated on the DDP article:
We already have a mediator involved in the case...let it proceed. It might help if you stated what you want, in specific language, on each of the pages you are disputing: ], ], ], and ]. This way everyone could see how this all fits together and address all the related points in one organized and integrated manner. DPetersontalk 23:27, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Also could you address the point raised on the talk page for the Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy article:
I don't see where Dr. Hughes says that he engaged in "'''very'''" coercive techniques in the past. The material does say that the method is compliant with the APSAC guidelines and the APSAC report writers do acknowledge that they are ''''not'''' saying the approach is coercive; this leads to compliance with the bulk of the guideline. It may be that your personal views cloud(or maybe bias is a better word?) your vision a bit on this and other related points.

== Mediation ==

I don't think that we need mediation over Bowlby or Newmaker.

*On ], I think my only comment was about sourcing information about living people. I think that the dispute there between Sarner, you, and others could be easily resolved if someone added additional information about the legacy of his work (thus balancing out the undue weight that Sarner believes is being given to DDP). I'm not familiar with that dispute, so this is just a guess.

*On ], I thought we were doing a relatively good job at effectively resolving our disagreement. I think our diverse points of view will ultimately make the article much better. It seems like we've been agreeing more than disagreeing there anyhow (for example, most of us agreed on removing the names of people not directly related to the case). Our largest dispute revolves around using ''Attachment Therapy on Trial'' as a source, but I think that finding additional references is the key to resolving this issue. As another example, someone recently removed information from the article, but then placed it on the talk page for discussion. I expressed my unhappiness about the removal, but agreed to discuss it and to help find more sources. I would call that collaboration, even if we're disagreeing. If we have a serious and unresolvable dispute there, I think we'd be able to easily find outside opinions by making an RfC (since the subject was widely reported in the news).

I'm narrowly concerned with the ] and ] articles. As you suggested, I'll post my specific concerns soon (rather than wait for mediation to "officially" begin) to help quickly resolve the disputes. Please understand that I'm not going to list proposed changes sentence for sentence, but I'll clarify where needed.

If you and others want to include Bowlby and Newmaker in the mediation, then I'll agree. Keep in mind that I won't have much to add concerning the Bowlby dispute except for what I said above. ] 00:51, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

It seems keeps getting reverted into/out of the article, past few days. Looks like an NPOV/POV dispute, since the material appears to have sourcing.

== Smoking and schizophrenia ==

Hi there,

As MedScape is a secondary source, it would probably be better just to cite the original peer-reviewed research that it cites. It's not clear to me from the MedScape website whether all article are peer-reviewed and to what standard their peer review operates.

==Domestic Violence==

I am a bit confused about your explanation for changing the Domestic Violence entry, it can only be that you did not carefully read what you were reverting to. What you were reverting to is a much larger number of unsourced statements that I have edited to take them out and in some cases, I even added sources to the statements of others. What was left unsourced was not my statements but the statements of the previous person and by reverting it, you increased the number of unsourced statements and managed to also revert to a bunch of unfinished sentences. I am sure you are just busy, but it would be helpful if you took as much care as I did when editing something. I figured that I might not be able to make something perfect, but at least I can make it better than the stuff you reverted to.

Hi,

Thanks for the message. I was wondering why you kept deleting my edit! To explain, the reason I made the change is that the "none are licensed mental health providers" statement makes it sound like they are not experts in the field. In fact, they seem to have written extensively about the subject, as shown in the links. So I was trying to counterbalance the "none are licensed" statement. Maybe it makes more sense just to take that out, though. Just about every academic in every field would need that qualifier if this were the rule! ] 01:15, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
:They may have written a book (or two) now in the popular press and have a lot of promotional articles on their website, but they don't qualify as experts in the field. Actually, most "academics" in clinical psychology, social work, marriage and family counseling, psychiatrtry, etc are licensed in their field of expertise. <font color="Red">]</font><sup>]</sup> 01:17, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

If that doesn't qualify her as an expert, I don't know what does -- she may be the most prolific writer on the subject out there!

Based on all that, does it sound reasonable to made the edits I suggested? ] 02:23, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

First of all, I only count three publications in peer-reviewed professional journals, all five to six years old. They are interesting opinion pieces, but I don't see the content representing any detailed scientific exploration of the subject...It is fine to publish your personal opinion as Mercer does...that does not make one an expert, especially in a clinical field when when one is not a clinician. Finally, the article has the statements you want....<font color="Red">]</font><sup>]</sup> 21:37, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

:But three publications in peer-reviewed journals makes my point -- that's probably more than anyone else has done on the subject! And that CV seems dated because it doesn't even list a recent one in Medscape that I've come across. It seems to me that four or more peer-reviewed journal articles definitely makes her a bona fide expert on the matter. Like I said, I wouldn't have bothered pointing it out except for the "they are not licensed" statement, which seems like it's intended to undermine their credibility. If that were taken out, I would say the statement about their publications is not necessary. But if stays in, I think it is important to balance it out. As for your question about my interest in the issues, it's actually more personal than professional. As you can probably understand, I'd rather not get into the details in a public place like this! ] 00:52, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Again, Mercer is not a licensed mental health clinician and neither are Sarner or Rosa, so they really do not understand clinical issues in a professional sense and the papers are opinion pieces not research. They are not licensed mental health professionals. They are advocates...and are lay-people, not professionals in the relevant field. Writing editorials does not make one an expert in a particular field.

::::The problem with the poll is that it's addressing a different question. It's addressing whether they are licensed.

From the little bit I've read on the talk page, there seems to be a long-standing debate about many issues, involving many of the same people over and over. Instead of polling the same people, what would be great, I think, is to get some dis-interested Misplaced Pages editors to weigh in. Like I said, if I have time I might look into it in the future. ] 21:09, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I think it's really disruptive that you keep editing in the "Outside Views" section of RfC's. I commented about, but I thought I'd talk to you personally. I can appreciate your problem - many of those who commented in the section had prior involvement with the topic; however, you shouldn't edit the "Outside Views" section to reply - a RfC is not a discussion. However, what you CAN do, is make a note in the "endorse here" section saying that this user is not a valid "Outside View", and link to the talk page - where you can give your evidence instead. Also - it's not vandalism to refactor someone's comments made in your own Outside View. --]

==Thanks, and RfC on the entry, perhaps?==

Thank you for the apology. What bugged me was that you repeatedly stated that "everyone but X and X" supported your view on that issue when I repeatedly stated that I did not, and that you treated me so harshly when I deleted the warnings from talk that are intended only for user talk space. I understand that you viewed that differently. Apology accepted, and let's put this behind us.

I'm not interested in escalating hostilities with particular users or in endless exchanges of argument and edit wars, and all that they may lead to in terms of Misplaced Pages procedures. I find them singularly ineffective except as an opportunity for more endless exchanges of argument. An RfC on the entry itself might be a good idea. What is really needed is several scholars who know the literature on the subject well, have quick access to the articles and books under discussion, and are able to refer to studies which counter those cited by pro-pedophile editors. Without this, we are going to continue to have a problem, no matter how many heads of the Hydra are cut off. -] 20:15, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

::Good. Unless you want to live on Misplaced Pages, some additional help wouldn't hurt, especially a researcher and/or professor teaching research in the field. Someone recently retired who needs a hobby? :) You have to admit that the pro-pedophile folks really know the research that supports their POV. I don't get the impression that any of the current editors are anywhere nearly as well informed about the state of research in the areas of child sexual abuse and pedophilia in general. When a cite is questioned, as in the case today, I think the most effective response would be to verify immediately that the studies cited did indeed control for variables, supplying a quotation from the specific studies if necessary to support this. Repeating back the words of the entry is a non-answer which allows for continued disputation. -] 21:56, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

:::You make it sounds like a pro-pedophile conspiracy, what is happening in reality is however that two competing paradigms of research are clashing. The Moralists versus the Liberals.

== Policy note, to read ==

Dear DP,

I am in a position where I feel it necessary to spell out where I see you as being, so that you understand my perception. Please note this is my view only, but take it seriously.

There is a significant trail of evidence to support the concern that a lot of your wikipedia editing is for POV warring, personal attack, puppet use, breach of NPOV, breach of OR, breach of TE, breach of DISRUPT, breach of AGF, and breach in short of most core policies we have on Misplaced Pages. Your case is presently being considered (along with the conduct of others) at Arbcom, where five sockpuppets used to control and dominate debate for OWNership and POV warring and bad faith allegations, have been noted, and where arbitrators have removed "sock supporting sock" texts.

You have not received a temporary block or ban pending the arbcom case to date, but several of your socks have been blocked by arbcom and checkuser members. Despite this you continue to edit in a way that does not follow policy or further constructive mutual neutral editing, considering all views. You proceed to still edit to argue just the one view and revert or stonewall discussion on it by bare assertation.

This is inappropriate. I hope you can stop doing this, and your associated accounts and editors, but I would like to ask you to read the following items from block/ban policy, so that you understand how such continuaing activity is viewed on Misplaced Pages:

{| style="border:solid black 1px"
| A user may be blocked when his or her conduct severely ]; that is, when his or her conduct is inconsistent with a ] and interferes with the process of editors working together harmoniously to create an encyclopedia. A block for disruption may be necessary in response to:
:* persistent ];
:* persistent ];
:* persistent ];
:* persistently posting material contrary to the ] policy;
:* persistent ];
:* ] or ];
:* breaching the ];
:* persistently violating other ], where there is a consensus among uninvolved users that the violation is disruptive.
(])
|}


{| style="border:solid black 1px"
| The purpose of blocking is prevention, not punishment. ''The duration of blocks should thus be related to the likelihood of a user repeating inappropriate behavior. Longer blocks for repeated and high levels of disruption is to reduce administrative burden; it is under presumption that such users are likely to cause frequent disruption or harm in future'' . Administrators should consider:
:* the severity of the behavior;
:* whether the user has engaged in that behavior before.
While the duration of a block should vary with the circumstances, there are some broad standards:
:* incidents of disruptive behaviour typically result in 24 hours blocks, longer for successive violations;
:* accounts used primarily for disruption are blocked indefinitely;
:* protective blocks typically last as long as protection is necessary, ''often indefinitely''.
(])
|}


{| style="border:solid black 1px"
| A Misplaced Pages ban is a formal revocation of editing privileges on all or part of Misplaced Pages. A ban may be temporary and of fixed duration, or indefinite and potentially permanent. Blocks may be used to enforce bans.

(])

Partial bans are sometimes used when a user's disruptive activities are limited to a specific page or subject matter. For example, a user may be banned from a single article or an entire subject area. Users who violate partial bans are blocked temporarily to enforce the ban. Where appropriate, partial bans may extend to include talk pages.

(])
|}


I would not like to apply any of these, but you need to know patience is running low and these are the options the community has sanctioned when patience expires. Even minor repetitions are becoming tiresome over a year of repetition, and should not have to be bourne by others or the editing community as a whole.

Please do ask me if you need help understanding any policy matter, or have a question, but do not continue editing in conflict with policy, ''even if you are sure your activity is okay'', when in fact you have been clearly told by multiple users (most of whom you have attacked for it) that it really isn't. ] <sup><span style="font-style:italic">(] | ])</span></sup> 23:41, 25 July 2007 (UTC)


: To clarify, I don't like going the block (or article ban) route. But administrators are given that option because they are trusted to use it where appropriate. The above are the guidelines which I and any other admin refer to, in deciding whether protecting Misplaced Pages, its articles, its discussions and editorial environment, is necessary. As that is what I refer to, it's important you read it so you can understand it too.

: Obviously if I didn't think your conduct has headed that way I wouldn't be saying anything. But perhaps reading the above note you will understand what is okay, and what isn't, and nothing more would need saying. That would be preferable. ] <sup><span style="font-style:italic">(] | ])</span></sup> 08:23, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

== Blocked ==

] '''Blocked:''' 1 year. You continue to edit disruptively, edit-warring over the insertion of material for which you have been repeatedly blocked in the past. As you show no signs of moderating your behavior, are intentionally pursuing a disruptive editing strategy. and are likely to be blocked for one year by ArbCom, I have blocked your account for one year. ] 16:35, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

==Unblock==
{{unblock reviewed|1=I have only added material to Attachment Therapy, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, and related pages that is factual and supported with citations. Fainites, FatherTree, Shotwell, etc have acted disruptively by not responding to my edits and immediatly deleting my material in definace of wiki standards. Sarner and Mercer, leaders of ACT, have edited these article and the article about their group in a controlling manner. I have tried to add material that is factual and with support of citations that are relevant. Furthermore, I will not be able to respond to the ABCOM material if I am blocked. This puts me at a disadvantage and unable to defend myself.|decline=You can e-mail a clerk or arbitrator with evidence and responses. Alternatively, you can post evidence and responses here on your user page and a clerk will copy them to the appropriate page. — ] 01:45, 2 August 2007 (UTC)}}

==Your ENwiki-L Request==
As a general piece of procedural advice, I'll tell you that it's very unlikely that you'll be able to get out from underneath any arbcom ban except with their blessing. They're really the ones you need to talk to. Most of them read ENwiki-L, so you may get some attention that way, but the arbcom mailing list may be a better bet.
