Removing administrator status from POV-pushers could be a start.
"rabid editing" as I correctly characterized Jayjg's edits ("extreme or fanatical support of or belief in something), especially to Israeli and Jewish subjects, is not directly analogous to bad faith POV-pushing. I'm sure Jayjg thinks he is improving Wikipedia, for Wikipedia's sake and not someone else's, when he charges about like an angry mastodon. My comment concerning his reckless editing does not mean I think he is a cabalistic POV-pusher. As perhaps was natural, Jayjg didn't get that in my previous comment I really meant all of my statement, and the positive half he missed was that I said he isn't some secret Israeli wiki-agent. He's just a fanatical editor. And frankly, though I disapprove of much of his behavior, I haven't personally seen evidence to suggest that his content disputes mean he should be stripped of sysop powers. Admins aren't summarily forbidden from mixing it up as content contributors, just from abusing admin powers to get their way.

Hi User:Shia1. I'm not sure how long you plan to keep flogging this conspiracy theory; you've been trying to get someone to bite since late June, I believe. For the record, I'm not associated with or paid by any pro-Israel lobby group, including Hasbara fellowships.
History reveals how "fair and balanced" you are:

There are obvious problems in Wikipedia, which need to get fixed: http://icssa.org/article_detail_parse.php?a_id=416
