Last week I noticed that Oscar had mentioned me on this list.

You have my full support.
Oscar has used those words of Jimbo to defend his actions at
Wikipedia-NL.
However his statement is incorrect. Therefore I have asked him to
correct his statement here.
As Oscar is not willing to do so, I will correct it myself then.
1) at Wikipedia-NL, there has been a conflict between Waerth and *a
group of other users*
(Danny has described the conflict as "his conflict with the
nl.wikipedia community";
see:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2006-March/
006381.html )
2) there has been *no* attempts at mediation
3) Muijz and Waerth did *not* keep on provoking the other
