He's not generally worth paying very much attention to, due to a casual disregard for civility, 3RR, and other community norms, and due to the fact that the sources he cites tend to be questionable (such as in the examples I mentioned on ]).

==Category:Books by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe== | |||
Hi, the situation as I found it was all number of different types of "work" by Goethe was lumped together as "Works of .." which normally would be under the main category "Works '''by''' artist". However they were under "Books by author" which didn't apply to maybe half of the work if I recal correctly. I could have just moved the "Works of ..." to place it under "Works by artist". But that would have meant that true "Books" by Goethe would not have appeared directly under that category. So hence the split. They could be merged again, but already some discussion has suggested some support for the split (somewhere under "Categories under discussion"). All I would ask is that we don't go back to exactly the way it was. Thanks :: ] : ]/] 08:46, 20 March 2007 (UTC) | |||

==Recent Wilberian edit== | |||
I see your point goethean, but I dont think "drawn on" a variety of disciplines makes sense. I think it can imply that Wilber has a good grasp of each of the listed disciplines, it gives the reader the false impression that he is in command of these disciplines which I think is far from true. While my use of "interpretation" might not be good as well I think something should be added or reworded to emphasize that the fact that Wilber is taking bits of info from different discipline to make his "integral theory of consciousness." Can we come up with a solution? <small>—The preceding ] comment was added by ] (] • ]) 20:29, 26 March 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned --> | |||

"Activist and filmmaker Michael Moore released Fahrenheit 9/11 in 2004, making a plethora of accusations against Bush, most notably using public sentiments following 9/11 for political purposes, financial connections between the Bush family and the prominent Saudi Arabian families such as the royal family and the Bin Laden family, and lying about the cause for war in Iraq." | |||

Dear Goethean, | |||
Since you are familiar with me and, more significantly still, my work here on Misplaced Pages, I have come to request a small consideration on your part, in the case that the need truly arise, to form a judgment upon my edits in relation to this developing quarrel on Eric Lerner and other recent edits of mine, which I find to be so strange that I fear I will require third-party validation, that is, to prove through outside opinion that I have no ill intent and that I was never in the wrong on this matter.

As I indicated above, I can only thank you for your comment on my talk page pertaining to this nonetheless troubling circumstance. What still, however, appears confounding is the time ] had actually initiated this wholly uncivil tactic against me on the and articles; this obviously nullifies your hypothetical account that it had to do with the plasma cosmology articles' imperilment on Misplaced Pages. Truth to tell, I rarely edit as frequently as I had done previously, explainable through a myriad of reasons, but does that so much as merit such stark, almost baseless suspicion against me? I suppose, when I have more time, I will attempt to address these counter proposals to Arthur directly (that is, if he does not take notice before then) and hope that this Wikipedic mess is washed clean.

Hi Goethean. | |||
I think we need to reorganise the Integral Thought template; only list there people who are specifically considered or consider themselves integral thinkers. Others like Baldwin, Graves etc can go on the Wilber template. Others again don't have to be listed in the template, they can just be mentioned in the main article.

goethean, I am not harrassing you, please stop making such abusive remarks about me or my character. I am learning how to edit, so yes I make mistakes, sorry I can't be perfect. So actually, you please leave me personally alone. I will only talk to you on relvant wikipedia issues and edits. I am free to do so, this is wikipedia?? Clearly on your own user talk page, there is a history of antagonizing fellow wiki editors adding to the fact u have been partied to many arbitrations and revert edit wars...ForrestLane42 03:42, 3 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
User:ForrestLane42
I've noted that you accused ForrestLane42 of harassment for going through several attempts to have Chicago Humanities Festival deleted. I know that you and ForrestLane42 don't exactly agree on the topics you share knowledge of, but I must advise you to assume good faith. It's not as if ForrestLane42 was attacking other articles that you might have created. He initially took the opinion that Chicago Humanities Festival was worthy for deletion; then he seemed to have trouble figuring out how to get it deleted. His steps—from blanking the page, to tagging it for speedy deletion, to listing it on AfD—seem to simply be a fairly inexperienced editor getting his bearings regarding how Misplaced Pages works.
You may or may not disagree with my assessment. However, I will advise you to be less confrontational in the future. Cut down on the accusations and concentrate on rational discussion. If ForrestLane42 does something similar in the future, refute his arguments with solid facts and rational points. If his motive is indeed harassment, this will quickly become apparent, and other editors will side with you. However, if you continue confront him every time he makes an edit, you may begin to come off as something of a jerk, even if you are entirely correct in your actions. Take the high road.
On the other side, I am advising ForrestLane42 to employ talk pages far more often, keep his cool, present his arguments clearly and completely, and to make inquiries when he has questions about Misplaced Pages procedures, so as to minimize misinterpretations of his actions.

- All right, you seriously have to chill out. Even if ForrestLane42 did intentionally look through your contributions and choose Chicago Humanities Festival to pick on, there really is no way to prove this. Action taken upon one article does not constitute harassment. In addition, he seemed to honestly think that the article was unencyclopedic; this does not appear to be intentional disruption. Further actions on articles that you are involved in may qualify as such, depending on the circumstances.
- Putting the everything else aside, you have done nothing so far to mitigate the dispute. While ForrestLane42 has at least accepted my suggestions on improving his editing, you seem to be intent solely on proving ForrestLane42's malfeasance. This is hurting Misplaced Pages more than helping it. He may or may not be harassing you, but until it can be proved, cease accusing ForrestLane42 of wrongdoing. There is next to no evidence for it, and you are just being uncivil and creating an atmosphere of mistrust and suspicion.
- I will be advising ForrestLane42 to forgo his desired "apology."
- He may or may not be harassing you, but until it can be proved, cease accusing ForrestLane42 of wrongdoing.
- That is why I asked User:ForrestLane42 a simple, civil question: How did he happen upon Chicago Humanities Festival? He could easily have responded with a simple answer, confirming or disconfirming my suspicions, or he could have ignored the question. He chose instead to evade, and to disingenuously claim that the question was an attack on his reputation. Unfortunately, you, User:Larry V, seem unable or unwilling to distinguish between incivility and a simple, ordinary, quite obvious question. This is potentially about a user nominating an article for deletion in retaliation for me making edits that a user didn't like. It is extremely unfortunate that you feel that the best response is to scold me. — goethean ॐ 21:37, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- I "scold" you only because you are the far more experienced editor (over three years of experience), who should know better than to continue "feuds" like this. I'm not sure that ForrestLane42 knows any better, having only a month of experience on Misplaced Pages. I can see that your question was intended to make a simple query, but I can also see how an agitated, distressed editor such as ForrestLane42 could misinterpret its somewhat pointed style as indicative of a bad-faith accusation. I can also see how an inexperienced editor could perhaps attempt to delete an article in retaliation, ignorant of the explicit Misplaced Pages policy against such actions. Then again, one doesn't have to know Misplaced Pages policy to figure out that such an action would be somewhat unethical in any sense, so that wouldn't really be excusable, if it were the motive.
- In any case, I'm not trying to blame either of you; I'm trying to mediate this conflict, and all I'm asking is that you, as the senior editor, provide an example by not escalating it. I'll be asking other editors for their views of the situation in an attempt to get a better view.
- Thanks for your candor. — goethean ॐ 17:57, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Nonviolent Communication
I noticed that you contributed to the Nonviolent Communication article at some time. A friend just recommended NVC to me because I am trying to mediate for Sri Lanka related articles. I really love it - I'm just devouring the eponymous book, but I am still very inexperienced. Moreover, applying the techniques to Misplaced Pages-style communication has its own challenges. Therefore, I could use some help from people who have more experience with NVC. You could help Misplaced Pages, Sri Lanka, the nonviolence movement and me greatly by looking at some of my edits and giving me honest feedback on User talk:SebastianHelm/NVC. — Sebastian 19:43, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
"butchered" SQL entry
Actually, I'm fairly comfortable with removing the SQL entry on the grounds that it isn't really a misnomer. But as it stood, if "butcher" means "bring in line with known facts", it needed butchering. -Dmh 22:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Epic of Evolution
Hi Goethean,
Why have you removed the article on the Epic of Evolution? I am new to Misplaced Pages and don't understand the process of it's deletion. 67.174.179.59 05:26, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Momosean 05:36, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
i again. I looked over what happened. It seems that at 17:06 on Dec. 20, you proposed the article be deleted. 5 minutes later you deleted all but a stub. 4 minutes later you rewrote it into something that was vastly different that the original. Then, with this totally different version, 2 others voted to delete because it wasn't notable. One said it was neutral and one voted to redirect. These comments were made after your edits created a non-notable stub. Their tone also sound like they were based on major revision of yours and not on the original article. Is this what happened?Momosean 07:28, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

political bias and wikipolicy
Why would you retract what that person has confronted you with? Afraid of people seeeing it. ForrestLane42 06:18, 21 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
Indeed, we are all hypocrites, are you just content on wasting your time on harassing me and showing my errors? The difference in why I removed those edits, is that they are irrelvant and were sent as advice on what not to do, the question still remains why you afraid of people seeing it? Should I just post it for you? ForrestLane42 18:06, 23 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
Thank you for his blog, I intend to look at it myself. I can certainly sympathic to your cause. ForrestLane42 17:48, 23 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
I just took a glance at his blog, which shows for the first time, something we seem to have in common which is our political views. Who would have guess? But regardless, political POV should not be included in any wiki articles. ForrestLane42 17:54, 23 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
Yes, its true, but he can't go on abusing this. Bring it to the attention of LarryV, sys adminstrator beore he does it to you and me. ForrestLane42 19:41, 23 January 2007 (UTC)ForrestLane42
