*grin* That's a very very good thing.
I'm talking via email with Helga. It is not going very well. I feel that I will not be able to change her mind directly. I have told her not to post anything further about WWII, Poland, Germany, Judaism, or related topics until we get this straightened out.
I am not inclined, as everyone knows, towards bans. But if someone has an agenda and is completely uncooperative, well, I'm just not sure how much we can stand.
I haven't tried to 'fix' her articles because I know bugger all about German history, but I'd say that everyone has had their patience tried long enough. She is not a useful contributor - she's a kook who wants to use the wikipedia to push her private bandwagon, which just so happens to have no relationship to the facts. I'm the first to admit to having my own little wagon that I'm pushing on the wikipedia, but most of us pay SOME attention to the NPOV philosophy and make sure that what we are contributing is based on fact, not some loonytunes supposition.
I would vote to ban her just for the sake of everyone else's sanity. When you've tried reasoning and you've tried persuading and you've tried asking nicely it's time for a little old-fashioned force.
