== CfD nomination at {{Section link|Misplaced Pages:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 October 1#Category:WikiProject X members}} ==
Ruud, I would like to make a small 'official' note of our 'relationship' on your talk page because I have been in a couple of edit conflicts lately in which you have voiced your opinion sometimes protecting me or my points of view, which has resulted in you being targeted for criticism as well. Let it be known that I do not know Ruud or have ever met him, I have never communicated with him by e-mail or anything of the sort. However, I greatly appreciate Ruud participating in the disputes because he is considerate and fair. In fact, Ruud is so fair and unbiased that he has also criticized me for being elitist and impolite (which has been duly noted.) If it were not for such intelligent and unbiased administrators Misplaced Pages would be a Wild West of hearsay. I hope that Ruud will continue participating in improving Misplaced Pages as his leisure time permits and I naturally expect that he will voice objections to my behaviour or edits if he should see reason to do so, just as he does with other editors. ] (]) 10:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

== Recruiting outside experts ==


== "]" listed at ] ==
Some of the articles I have edited have been criticized mainly by the editors ] and ] as being biased and unbalanced in their coverage and inclusion of certain references. I get the impression that the editors are ] me so they should come across this message as well, in which I propose a neutral resolution to the dispute. I have continually tried to revise the articles in question but it appears that the editors are not satisfied and especially MrOllie keeps reverting edits I make. While I question their knowledge of the subject matter and hence their ability to make such judgments, and I generally believe there is no merit to their accusations, it would be wrong of me to continue posting references to research with certain viewpoints without a review of the disputed Misplaced Pages articles from neutral and knowledgeable editors. Unfortunately, in the past disputes over those articles it seems that there are not many Misplaced Pages editors with sufficient insight to give qualified opinions on these particular topics. I would therefore like to propose that we request outside assistance and that you or another official Misplaced Pages administrator help in this. It will give more weight to the matter if an official Misplaced Pages administrator politely asks for outside assistance (besides, I never have any luck recruiting expert contributors as they have all turned me down.) I will naturally respect the outcome of an independent and competent review, and I hope the opposing editors will as well.

* ] and ]. Here I would suggest contacting the editors of reputable journals and briefly explain the matter and politely ask them to circulate amongst their reviewers a request to review/edit these articles, and if they have no concerns and feel the articles are unbiased and balanced then express their opinion in the talk pages. Although many academics do not wish to participate in Misplaced Pages because of the inherent problems with an open encyclopedia it might help if you mention that the PSO article is viewed about 10.000 times/month and the DE article about 2.500 times/month. The articles are presumably the first source for novices entering the field so it is in the best interest of the journals that the Misplaced Pages articles fairly and accurately represent the main methodologies, different schools of thought, etc. I would suggest contacting the editors of , , and , to name a few.

* ] is a niche and it may be difficult to find qualified people reviewing and editing that article. An obvious suggestion would be but his work is cited in the article so the opposing editors might question his neutrality. Perhaps from ] can make a suggestion for neutral reviewers/editors. (INRIA has actually published a number of papers in this research field but I never got around to listing them in the article - hopefully they will do so themselves, although the opposing editors might dislike that on COI concerns...)

With a bit of luck you will be able to recruit several expert reviewers/contributors. In the academic world, reviews can take anywhere from months to years, so we will all need a little patience. Also, the varying schools of thought in this highly experimental research field are more like religions to some, so it might result in some heated debates. But regardless of the outcome I would welcome more expert contributors as it would mean that the burden of editing those articles no longer lies (almost) entirely with me.

:Dear Optimering
:You seem like a nice person (or you seemed so, until the recent insults thrown at MrOllie, 00:37, 4 March 2011 (UTC)). I just think that you have been rushing to create a slew of articles, when a reasonable editing schedule would allowed you to focus on one or two. I understand your wanting to save the local unimodal sampling article, and your having limited time. Rushing things has probably resulted in coincidental edits, that look "really weird" after the fact.
:<s>:(Today, I <s>see that Nair has nothing about random sampling, but</s> discusses C^2 functions! What am I supposed to think?)</s>Updated example: The use of articles citing LJ to establish notability of the Pedersen thesis looked weird, imho! (00:37, 4 March 2011 (UTC))
:It may still be possible to move the LJ heurstic/method article to the sandbox. I think that you will enjoy yourself more if you give yourself a little more time to develop an article, instead of editing under pressure and feeling scrutiny to develop this whole area.

As you know ] is continually reverting edits I make, particularly references to certain work. His/her concern is ]. He does not argue that the work is either irrelevant, biased with weasel-words, or given too much weight thus making the articles unbalanced. He does not tag the articles with his concern and discusses on the talk-page, he just removes text. More importantly, he removes sections or phrases that makes the remaining context meaningless, for example in his recent edit of ] where he removed an entire section on setting the parameter of the algorithm, without which the algorithm is useless. I have tried communicating with MrOllie several times over an extensive period of time but he continues his warring. I will gladly accept a community consensus or a verdict from an academic review board, but I will not be tyrannized by a random editor with no insight on the topic. Do you have any recommendations on how to handle this as it is rather tiresome that I have to monitor the articles and repair the damage? Thanks. ] (]) 07:08, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

You recently speedy-deleted ]. I don't necessarily disagree with the decision to delete it but you cited CSD#R2 in your edit summary. The wording of R2 explicitly excludes redirects to Misplaced Pages space. There are many legitimate cross-namespace redirects that are not even regular-deletable, much less speedy-deletable, and we're trying to clean up the cites to that clause so that it's not so widely misunderstood by new users. Nothing to be done for this case but if you could keep it in mind in future situations, it would make the cleanup easier. Thanks for your understanding. ] <small>]</small> 22:23, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
