FAR of anarcho-capitalism

Hi, there. You might be interested in the FAR of anarcho-capitalism. They are closing the vote, so get in your comments and vote, if you have an opinion on the subject. Best wishes, and happy editing. --AaronS 18:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Heh, yeah. I'm glad you stopped in -- I'm quite confused, myself. It seemed kind of abrupt. --AaronS 00:37, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No personal attacks

You called me a "twit" in the Anarchism discussion page. [1] Please stop attacking other editors. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people.

No, I said you would be a twit if you forwarded a particular view. I did question your ability to evaluate sources and implicitely questioned how carefully you read things, as I continue to do. --Marinus 03:34, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes, I also accused you of having shown a skewed POV (as when you mocked myself and others for not falling in line with the "global trend to world capitalism"). I neglected to comment on or attack you for that statement, merely note it. --Marinus 03:38, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nietzsche mediation

(Thanks for taking the case.) I'll defer to more active editors on Friedrich Nietzsche as to Petrejo's recent activities.

The background: I tried for a while to get him to stop thinking about his editing as inserting his position into the article, and to take a more dispassionate stance, and seemed to have a little success - although the accuracy of his scholarship is still certainly in question, after some back-and-forth he trimmed his bombastic style (initially just a set of carefully chosen Nietzsche quotes "so that the reader can make up his own mind") down to a couple paragraphs. Anyway, the reason I had hoped all this effort would work is because "Nietzsche as pre-Nazi" is a real vein of Nietzsche scholarship, although it is somewhat out of fashion now, and one that should be explained in the article, which, I think, is a position all the other editors agree with.

Your suggestions: (1) I'm not sure what you mean by the first suggestion - are we talking Petrejo's personal views (I agree completely) or the views he has been trying to research (which should be represented)? (2) I agree completely. (3) I agree again, although the majority view will be hard to pin down.

The only thing I would add is a recommendation that Petrejo voluntarily go through some official mentoring, if that sort of thing is within the scope of a mediation case. -Smahoney 19:52, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
