User:Justanother/Smee (formerly Smeelgova)[edit]

Below is the entire exchange from Tom Harrison's talk page. As you can see Tom recognized my draft for what it was, preparation for a formal action on User:Smee. My comment below sums up my position. Thank you. --Justanother 01:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent speedy deletion
I don't see complete similarity - it looks to me like preparations for an RfC, but I could be missing something. You might nominate it for deletion with a {{Template:Db-attack}}, or take it to misc. for deletion. Talk 20:38, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. Smee 00:51, 2 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
Hi Tom. Thanks for your help with the phony Editor Review. Yes, you are right, that is the beginnings of an RfC or ArbCom on User:Smee (formerly Smeelgova). Certainly my user space is the appropriate place for me to work on it. It goes without saying that those are charges against Smee that I intend to pursue. Another editor has already added his experience. After Smee's promise to reform and as a sign of good faith (please see my User Talk) I have put it on hold. If I see a turnaround then I will save it off-wiki and delete the page. I must say, however that, so far, reviews are mixed on Smee. A couple positives but a few negatives too including misrepresentation on my talk page and her unwillingness to accept that I will not delete the page until I see some change. She very much wants the cart before the horse. But I remain hopeful. Thanks for your time. --Justanother 01:17, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep - my user page, proper and allowable use as described above. Thank you. --Justanother 04:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Justanother is applying a double standard
    • However it is difficult to assume good faith on an issue like this after he insisted I remove an encounter I had with him from my user page[1].

He insisted on changing what I had originally placed there (just a quote without identifying who said it) to identify himself: diff line 15. He stated it wasn't fair for me to do that without providing context, I advised him that the context didn't make him look good and doing so would probably bring a more negative perception of him. He had it removed via WP:ANI when I refused to source it and thus turn it into an insult rather than an example of WP:NPA. I then returned it to my page, with sources, and still he pressed to have it removed.

    • A good faith editor would realize that if an unsourced quote is an example of a baiting personal attack, this page is a series of them.
    • If he wants a WP:RFC so be it, but this page should be deleted and based on his recent experience he should know it. Anynobody 04:17, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also please note he had a WP:ER I initiated on my behavior regarding him deleted as an attack page. Frankly since the request was for comments about me, I really don't see how he could justify it as an attack. Anynobody 04:32, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's perfectly reasonable for Justanother to request arbitrarion or comments on Smee, and it is very much necessary that such a request be worked on before it is submitted. However, if this doesn't turn into an actual request soon (say, within the next two weeks), I might view the situation differently. Currently, the page has only be in existence for about 3 days.

  • Moot - I thank all the editors here for their input. As a sign of good faith and in the hope that User:Smee can make her promised changes in behaviour, I have {{db-authored}} my draft RfC/ArbCom User:Justanother/Smee (formerly Smeelgova), and User talk:Justanother/Smee (formerly Smeelgova) --Justanother 20:46, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you for this sign of good faith. Smee 21:21, 2 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
