Let's get a few things straight, shall we?

There was *one* single objector to the compromise we hammered out on bird and mammal names months ago - the same objector who recently suddenly took it upon himself to start a single-handed campaign of what can only be described as vandalism - even stooping to the level of cut and paste page moves at one point - and an objector who practically never bothers to contribute anything to the fauna articles in any case, just talks about them at great length, and wastes enormous amounts of the time of the people who *are* doing the work, and causes a great deal of genuine distress to useful contributors.

At the conclusion of the debate, I waited several days extra just to make sure that there was indeed a consensus before going to work on the bird and mammal entries.

Since then, this same person has raised the issue on the mailing list once again, and on getting no response to his increasingly strident messages, went on his vandalisim spree, and afterwards (astonishingly) had the gall to refer directly to me with the phrase "a liar's phony allegations", despite the evidence of his actions being plain for all to see in recent changes. His credibility on this issue is zero.

I have had an absolute gutful of this bullshit.

Sorry for the frank language, but that's what this is: utter bullshit, and I'm dammed if I'll stop working on useful articles in order to engage in yet another massively time-consuming debate, particularly not with a non-contributor who's behaviour in this matter has been appalling. I have *real* work to do.

Now, how about some peace and quiet for a change, so that I and the other people who do the hard yards on fauna can get on with the job?
