I've had a chance to briefly peruse RK's lengthy complaints about me regarding the [[Relationships between segments of Judaism]] article. Needless to say, I dispute their accuracy and veracity. In some cases I am simply baffled; for example, he has insisted on inserting numerous quotes from Haredi Rabbis into the article, against the objections of a number of contributors, but when I replaced the many lengthy quotations with a summary of their views which briefly quotes them, he deleted that, calling it "Ultra-Orthodox propaganda".

I also strongly object to RK's many statements of a personal nature, especially the speculations regarding my beliefs. His numerous claims about me (including his statement that I am an "Ultra-Orthodox Jew") are simply false, and I really hate wasting time on ad hominem argumentation. I also object to the histrionic and often hysterical rhetoric.

I have pleaded with RK to work with me on the article. I have on many occasions requested that RK support his edits in the Talk: page, with limited success. I have now asked him if he would like to go to mediation, and look forward to a response. I don't want to bore people any further, so I simply welcome any interested party to read the relevant Talk: pages and decide for themselves.
