Please do not attack other editors, which you did here: User talk:ScienceApologist. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. OrangeMarlin 23:29, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
I do not consider it an attack to request editors stop disrupting wiki by an organised campaign of deletion of well sourced material. According to Wiki rules that is vandalism.Number48 (talk) 23:39, 22 January 2008 (UTC) This seems to be an attempt at intimidation in a content dispute, which must be a violation of wiki rules.

- The material you inserted was not well sourced. For instance, the first reference was on the British Homeopathic Association's website (hardly a neutral source), and even then, it was merely a mention - not even any details - of a homeopathic doctor who claimed that Thuja cured her patient (which is hearsay & original research).

Labeling edits as vandalism
Please do not accuse other editors of vandalism over content disputes. ] does not include good faith content disputes. JoshuaZ (talk) 23:48, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
This is not a good faith content dispute but an organised campaign of deletion of well sourced material in order to drive an agenda forward and the integrity of Wiki as a reference source be damned. This is the definition of vandalism on WP:Vand. Number48 (talk) 23:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
