ColonelS (talk · contribs)[edit]
On his first day he headed straight for the Chip Berlet article and started bringing up all the same old disputes, so I'm wondering if this is Nobs or Cognition or somebody else who has been dealt with by ArbCom. Gamaliel 05:47, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what the hell Nobs or Cognition is, but this Gamaliel guy has been harassing me ever since I registered and made a valid change to the article about Chip Berlet, who is a fringe left political pundit that Gamaliel likes. Almost immediately a bunch of liberal editors started deleting everything I had added and attacking me with insults. This was not because of anything wrong or untrue about what I added - it was all sourced and quoted and true. They just didn't like that it showed some truths about Chip Berlet that they don't want revealed, such as the fact that he has no law degree as his old article implied and the fact that he wrote an embarassing and controversial rant calling George H.W. Bush and Ross Perot "fascists" with ties to Mussolini! All I did was quote that rant and quoted a conservative response to it - all with sources. And that set them off. So the next day Chip Berlet himself shows up and starts trying to delete anything negative about himself from his own article (I thought people got in trouble for doing that on wikipedia!) The stuff I added wasn't there when I added it there either -- unless these lib types removed it all before too! Chip Berlet's editor name and some of the other libs posted all sorts of vicious rude insults against me and completely blanked the sourced quote of Berlet himself that I had added, but when I made a single complaint that this looked like censorship Gamaliel - who is himself an openly identified liberal democrat and probably a Berlet supporter because of it - sends me a rude message threatening to ban me! Now he's posting all sorts of similar messages to me and when I checked his history to see if he was doing it elsewhere my suspicion was confirmed - here he is now trying to initiate some sort of investigation into me. With all due respect, this Gamaliel guy is out of control and he acts like he's trying to drive me away from wikipedia for no other reason than I "wronged" one of his liberal sacred cows! If this is what wikipedia is all about -- political censorship and leftists threatening to block anyone who isn't leftist for the most minor reasons on the very first day (when they give a blind eye to liberals who are far more incivil) -- I'm not sure I want to be involved in it anyway. And now this guy is trying to set up some sort of secret tribunal against me by calling for a secret investigation without even having the decency to tell me about it! It's pure BS and this Gamaliel guy has got to go. -- Col. S
- While CheckUser does not go back nearly far enough to verify anything, this IP keeps creating new users which instantly dive in to the same topic area (right-wing politics) but different articles. I strongly suspect they're actually the same person. Identification as to a banned user is going to take more. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 00:40, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Analysis of the edits of ColonelS (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) shows a slightly different emphasis in his edits from that of Nobs01 who was also concerned with Chip Berlet and the National Lawyer's Guild. Cognition generally edits in other areas and has also tended to focus on other issues. So Nobs01 is a possibility, but it is likely ColonelS is just another right wing editor. ColonelS's internet provider does not offer service where Nobs01 has logged in from in the past. Fred Bauder 01:35, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
