The Misplaced Pages harassment of Professor Hewitt has to stop

The Misplaced Pages should be ashamed of itself for harassing Professor Hewitt. Arthur Rubin took away his category as an American Logician. Then Ruud Koot deliberately insulted Professor Hewitt by taking away his Emeritus title and he changed the title of Hewitt's "Seminars, Publications, and Academic Biography" to "blog", which is (deliberately?) misleading. Also Ruud has been censoring those who attempted to protest his antics. First they called it the "Great Firewall of Ruud." But recently I have heard it referred to as "Ruud's Musharraf Strategy."

Is there any material in the article that you believe is incorrect, non-neutral, or improperly sourced? ·:· Will Beback ·:· 23:43, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Please change site for Professor Hewitt's seminars, publications, and academic biography

Please change site for Professor Hewitt's seminars, publications, and academic biography as follows:

Carl Hewitt's seminars, publications, and academic biography

The material is much better formatted on the new site and the old site will go away. Thanks,--AnotherLiveAndLetLive 10:46, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Just my opinion of course, but you can change the site when the other link is no longer available. I don't see any reason to change it right now, nor the sounds of urgencies for the need for immediate change. Thanks,--CrohnieGal 17:07, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

The individual items have been redirected to the new site, but it is not clear how long all of the redirections will remain valid. There is no reason to make the change unless you mind inconveniencing Misplaced Pages users ;-)--AnotherLiveAndLetLive 18:01, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Slightly off-topic for Misplaced Pages, but the biography at the linked site could do with a light copy-edit. For example, the paragraph on the Actor model includes a duplicated occurrence of the phrase "...influenced the development of...", and a misspelling of the word "calculi". --Allan McInnes (talk) 02:11, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Typo?

I could easily be mistaken, but it looks as though there is a typo in the Selected Works section. Specifically, I don't think the title of the publication includes the curly braces "{" or "}".

Henry Lieberman and Carl E. Hewitt (1983). A Real-Time Garbage Collector Based on the Lifetimes of Objects Communications of the {ACM}, 26(6).

The headers on the CACM website suggest that they are not included: http://www.acm.org/publications/cacm/

Can someone with more access look into this and (if necessary) make the change? -- Ubermichael

Thanks for your note. I removed the curly braces. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 13:00, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Trivial cleanup

{{editprotected}}
There are calls cite templates that have carriage returns in the titles, which is an error. Please remove the excess carriage returns and the unlabeled URLs are displayed. The titles, with their carriage returns, are:

If it is easier: the unique words are in these inline cites are: Filman and dissertation .--Laughitup2 (talk) 08:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Indefinite protection

I noticed an anon added the permprotect template to this talk page, but I don't see any explanation of whether it truly is indefinitely or why; the protecting admin's protection doesn't mention anything. --Gwern (contribs) 23:32 10 December 2007 (GMT)

Yes, it's indefinitely (and fully) protected to enforce wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Carl Hewitt#Remedies. Semi-protection didn't work unfortunately. —Ruud 16:52, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

I see. That's too bad. I didn't realize the rules had changed so mainspace content could be indef-protected. --Gwern (contribs) 19:55 11 December 2007 (GMT)

Indefinite doesn't mean infinitely, of course. Just an until a now unspecified moment in the future. —Ruud 23:57, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Probably until Carl gives some evidence of being willing to abide by Misplaced Pages ~~rules~~ policies, and to not ask his students to break them. (redacted my possible BLP violation) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 00:11, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

This page is subject to the BLP policy, so could I ask people please to tone down the comments a little? SlimVirgin 01:35, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. :-) SlimVirgin 02:10, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
