	== Block of {{user\|Tbeatty}} ==
			<!-- Template:Afd notice --></div> –] ] 18:31, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
	Tbeatty's was that Jones had been suspended for misrepresenting his research and the cited to support this. The article states:
			== Nomination of ] for deletion ==
	:''School officials suspended Jones over concerns that his paper on the subject has not been published in traditional, peer-reviewed scientific journals''
			<div class="afd-notice">
	It does not say he misrepresented his research.

			The article will be discussed at ''']''' until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
	The article also says that Jones stated it had been peer-reviewed in the "Journal of 9/11 Studies". The university wished it to be reviewed elsewhere. There is no statement of misrepresentation. Indeed the conclusion of the article is:
	:''They will determine if Jones's version of events is plausible or if he has been irresponsible in his research, either by going beyond his expertise or ignoring facts that contradicted his hypothesis.''
	This clearly states there is as yet no conclusion on misrepresentation or otherwise, since the purpose of the new review is to determine this.

			Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
	Therefore Tbeatty's second statement is no more validated than his first.

	Bearing in mind the first comment that Tbeatty made, and my response, I would have thought a sensible course would have been to have backed off, rather than made the trollish rephrasing of his initial statement with the words, ''"not to be confused with lying because lying is ... different"'', clearly implying that he thinks in this case there is no difference, i.e. essentially restating what he said before.

	I'm a bit busy right now, so I will take a look again sometime today or tommorrow (if it turns out no 3RR occured and you want I'll add a 1-second block noting that so it will be permanently linked in the block record). However, as I understand 3RR, it doesn't matter that the material reverted was different only that 4 reversions occured in 24 hours. As to the 10 hour issue- while I agree I should have considered that while making the block that is an enforcement issue and thus not relevant to the issue of whether there is a problem with the block in the log.

	:::A lot of folks think that the event was a precip to war. But if you know U.S., war is easy to achieve and there was more reason to invade Iraq (in my opinion) than there ever was to be involved in Vietnam. Strategically, Afghanistan plays no importance to the U.S. and since everyone else who ever went there ended up losing, the U.S. would have been hard pressed to find a rationale for going there. I have read that, and I believe that, the events of 9/11 may have been preventable...certainly foreign policy issues may have contributed to motive. But, if the WTC was going to be used as a rationale for war, all the feds would have needed to do would be to remote control (which is easy) a half dozen explosive laden semi's adjacent to the WTC and blown the bottoms out of the buildings...Thermate installed explosives is simply too hard to cover up...it's ridiculous and there would be many easier ways to do it.

	The truth or otherwise of 9/11 theories is irrelevant as to whether we cover them in articles. The only consideration is whether they are notable enough to gain public interest and media attention, which they have done. This merits inclusion. Then the article itself should examine the subject, and it should be quite apparent, if normal wiki policies are followed, as to whether the theories have substance or not. It is wiki's job to present the information from a NPOV. Having an article on a theory is not an endorsement of the truth of that theory. If it is a false theory, then the article will show it to be so, which is a service to readers. If readers are not given the information accurately via wiki, then they will find other sources, which may well fail to give them a balanced view. Those opposed to such theories are undermining their own goal by seeking to exclude them from the encyclopedia, which normally has no problem in dealing with such things, as can be seen in ]. ] 13:57, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

	Hi Mongo, thanks for the kind words about my work on the article. I've tried to bring this up a number of times in the AfD discussion but my point seems to be getting lost. When you say, "Basboll did a fine job rewriting the Collapse article, but consensus was to not have all these links (link farm) in that article, so now they are here," you seem to be implying that as part of the rewrite I was involved in these links were discussed (they were not). You are telling people that (a) I rewrote the article (that's partly true at least), (b) that I tried to get these links in there (absolutely false), and (c) that because I could not have my way in that regard I created the CD article (also absolutely false and simply speculation about my motives). (b) and (c) are perhaps implicit, or try to establish guilt by association, but they are in any case related to something that happened, as far as I can tell, before I arrived on the scene. The link farm already existed at the 9/11 CT article before I starting editing the WTC collapse article.. Please review this information and let me know if I've misunderstood what you are trying to accuse me of. On the AfD you are now saying (I think) that I should be ashamed of myself for creating this article, like any other POV-pusher.--] 07:00, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
			{{clear}}
	:Geez, Thomas...I'm not perfect...it's hard to not group folks, but for what it's worth, you always maintain a high level of civility and other things. I thought you did an excellent job on the Collapse of the WTC article, so I am "surprised" that this one we are debating even matters to you at all. If the article is kept, I have spoken my piece and I sleep well knowing that I did all I could do to remove this stuff from Misplaced Pages. If my comments were insulting, it wasn't intentional. I see about rewording it, or adding something.--] 07:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
			] (]) 07:21, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
	:Thomas, what else interests you? By that I mean, I can see you have a talent for writing...surely other areas aside from the events of 9/11 are interesting as well. You'll notice that I have interests in glaciers, parks and related things...I think the best way to be "happy" on wikipedia is to try and get involved in numerous areas and work on those articles in addition to articles that are controversial. When I create articles on parks, etc...it's just me generally and it completely takes me away from the stressful areas.--] 07:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

	::Thanks. Do keep in mind that you are trying to remove (and bar) information from Misplaced Pages that I came here looking for and, upon not finding it, proceeded to contribute. These issues are really what got me seriously interested in becoming a Wikipedian. Until then I had been a pretty satisfied passive user (mere reader) of this thing. Sure, I fixed a couple of sentences anonymously, but I felt that I was being informed by the articles and their input in my investigations usually led me in fruitful directions. In the case of the collapse of the WTC and its possible controlled demolition there was suddenly something I felt I knew substantially more about than the articles were telling me. (I had of course hoped that the articles would settle some basic factual questions; but the collapse mechanism and collapse sequence in the article was simply a mess, as was the coverage of the controlled demolition hypothesis.) I'm just starting here, being a Wikipedian is not the only writing (or even editing) I do. I'm pretty happy on the whole with my intellectual life and I'm don't really need Misplaced Pages to feel that way. I just thought I could help, and at the same time see what this project is all about. And I do think I am learning something there. But if this article gets deleted, like I say, then Misplaced Pages just lost an editor, at least for a while. Anyway, happy editing.--] 07:37, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

	:::Ah, but that's what makes wiki so fun! Not! I see you've been active, we just haven't bumped into one another for a while and it's always nice to run into editors you haven't heard from in some time. It is interesting when a troll who is just below the radar realizes that someone is on to him/her, and they do start to be "good" temporarily. I often wonder...how many people are so bored that they just want to vandalize wiki...sometimes i think there are about 50 dedicated vandals and they simply go from one IP and username to the next. I was watching the newly created names category and noticed that out of 20 I decided to watchlist due to them having trollish usernames, after a few days of the username creation, (and once the semi-protection would no longer block them from editing pages protected under semi-protect), 14 of them immediately started vandalizing! It was actually, err, funny to watch in a way....and made the semi protection feature obsolete in dealing with them immediately. Anyway, nice to hear from you again.--] 21:43, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
	::::He (?) isn't a simple vandal or troll but is operating on the basis of some very extreme political views.

Such views per se would not be a problem (lots of people around the world don't like us) but unfortunately he has insisted on using Misplaced Pages as a medium to lash out against the U.S. He '''will''' return; he's convinced that he Knows The Way Of Truth(tm) and doubtless feels that the block is unjust persecution by capitalist running-dog lackey imperialists. I realized a week or so ago that his first block only taught him to try and keep his vandalism under the radar, and I thought that he would get away with an ongoing campaign of low-level vandalism. It's interesting to see that others were watching him too.

	:::Pardon me for eavesdropping (I don't recall now why this page is on my watch list), but "Dubya" is how ''Bush himself'' says it, if you listen to him. I wouldn't call it a nickname in the same way that "Ike" was Eisenhower's nickname, though. The article doesn't say, but I think "Ike" went back to his younger years and was a true nickname, like "Bill" instead of "William" Clinton. In contrast, the FDR page doesn't say Franklin D. "FDR" Roosevelt. That was a ''media'' nickname, methinks. And, aha!, there's the difference, maybe. ] 03:31, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

	Sorry folks...I have been away...good chance Frogsprog has multiple sock accounts.

	Hey MONGO ... would you mind taking a look at ]? This was an article that got on the front page a couple of days back (not as the featured article; I think it was one of those "Did You Know" deals), and some idiot ] came along and tried to pull a bad-faith AfD on it, so I ]. It's gone from the front page now, but now ''another'' SPA has come along and put it up for AfD again. On top of that, ] pretty much admits in the discussion that he created that second SPA (]) as a sock in order to do the 2nd AfD! (Martylunsford's just barely beyond SPA status himself, as you can see from his user contributions .) I don't want to close this down again as a speedy keep myself since I don't want it to look like I have some sort of obsession with this article, and I'm not an admin anyway so I probably shouldn't push my luck regardless. But obviously I think the whole thing reeks of bad faith, so if you could check it out, I'd appreciate it.

	:::I appreciate you checking it out, MONGO, even if you decided to let it run. To ]: No, I don't think anybody involved has an issue with the dog; I just know that sometimes people can take it too personally when an AfD gets shut down in any fashion beyond the "expected" way (that is, a nomination leading to at least five days' worth of discussion followed by a close by an actual admin) and then toss it right back into the fire when it really doesn't deserve it. (I've been guilty of that at least once myself, back in my newbie days.) I wanted an admin to look at it, MONGO did, and I'm satisfied with that. However the AfD plays out at this point is fine by me. I will admit I'm very much anti-] when it comes to AfDs, but that's because they usually either are there ''only'' to attempt to save their one pet article and couldn't care less about Misplaced Pages as a whole, or else they're just too green to make a meaningful contribution to the discussion. (Almost invariably, they vote "keep" and give some variation of the long-discounted argument "How come we can have articles about Pokemon and porn stars but not this?") It's just my opinion, but AfD shouldn't be the first playground of the ultranewbie editor. Read first, make a few edits, start a couple of stubs, and then ease into AfD once you've got at least a baseline comprehension of Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines. That takes a couple of weeks, in my experience. --] 00:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

	Hi Mongo. There is a new editor over on the ] page who has started an edit war over the notion that Barrett "was suspected of planning to teach CT." He keeps deleting sourced material ( lying in his edit summary), and screwing up the sources, both in the reference section and in the article. If you look through the edit history you'll see he has tried to insert several different unsourced assertions. He has called me a liar when I have deleted his unsourced contributions. I've tried to reason with him, but he just keeps reverting to "his" latest version, despite never having demonstrated a deficiency in the status quo. He seems intent on theorizing about what Barret was "planning" to do. Anyway, on the talk page, he has said he hopes an admin will look things over. If you have the time...Cheers, ] 19:36, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Glad I have other things to worry about than this website as some folks are hell bent on making it a completely unfun place to be. Nice job dlthewave...you succeeded in getting the articles redirected yet I see the page they redirect to have no further information...only empty headers. The purpose of a stub is so myself or anyone can come along and work to expand it...bandwidth is cheap so deletion is just plain stupid. This is why we have stub tags.--MONGO (talk) 11:16, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
