Rough translation: "I propose that the user

present every POV. Today, he even threated legal
process because of a small mention of the work by
Camacho, The Master and Martinelli, although public
reactions against a person - the same as public
support - are an important part of a biography.
People who purposefully and continually threaten the
cooperation and freedom of the Wikipedia must be
banned."
So, I need legal advice. Jimbo, should I give
Kricxjo's name and address to Silfer? Should I
temporarily remove the critique from the biography
until the legal problem is solved? Please reply
ASAP... and CC: your reply to my personal address as
well, msochuck(a)yahoo.com.
Just as I prophesied. As an outsider, all I can do now is say "I told
you so." The Wikipedia has systemic flaws that leave it vulnerable to
this sort of attack. For easier to call the messenger an "anti-Semite"
than deal with ones own failings.
