Turning articles in the area of communist history

to the tender mercies of 172 is not a solution. It's not
a matter of experience, although newbie POV warriors are
pretty bad too. It is a fact, that in practice, a
determined (and experienced) POV pusher can get their
way just by wearing down any opposition.
Robert, who started this thread, is another major
offender.
Huh? How did I getinserted into this? In any case, how
can you make this statement, after I have been working so
hard to comes to turn with you of late? I especially have
been trying to find areas of argreement with you on the
Chiropractic medicine article. Why won't you take "yes"
for an answer?
I find the same odd attitude from Danny and others. They
claim that they disagree with me, and that I push my views
too much. However, if you check the Talk pages of the
articles in question (as well as the recent archives of
this very list) you will see that I constantly invite
others to add their own points of view. In fact, one can
reasonbly say that I have been begging Danny and others to
contribute to several articles, on several topics, on
precisely the points that they disagree with me on! That -
by definition - is the best sign of good faith one can have
from a Wikipedia contributor.
My problem with Fred Bauder, Danny and others is that they
demand that I add material they agree with, and they want
me to write their own POVs for them. As I have been
repeating here many times in the last month, if you have
some information that is useful for an article, by all
means please add it, in NPOV fashion.
Just stop attacking me for not writing the articles in the
way that you want to. Is this so much to ask?

Hi Robert.
While it is true that Fred attacked you, and that it is understandable
that you feel upset, please try to avoid escalating in doing the same in
reverse to others.
I think that here, Danny would be in right to feel you are launching a
personal attack against him for no reason.
Please, do not fuel a flame war :-)
