Wow, stop right there, Nobs. You're not bringing your SlimVirgin Review conspiracy theories onto this list.
There were no "circumstances that led to the creation of the Daniel Brandt bio" that are relevant to this incident, or of any interest. I created the stub on Brandt because his name was showing up as a red link in the article about, as I recall, Chip Berlet. Rather than remove the red link, I created a stub so it turned blue. End of story.

( B ) the subject of the Berlet entry was the first to identify Brandt by name with these words:
QUOTE This complaint was written by Daniel Brandt, who I criticized because he was urging people on the left to read the anti-Semitic Spotlight newspaper (at the time published by Holocaust denier Willis Carto.)

( C ) the self published citation in the Public Information Research entry * still* violates WP policy.
