Jimbo, were you aware of this? What's the status of your discussions with her?

I have told her that she needs to sign onto this mailing list and talk with us or risk being banned.

My intention is to temporarily ban her - to get her attention - tomorrow, if she doesn't respond to me with either a refusal to join the list, with a reason, or by joining the list and posting something.

If she refuses to talk about her actions, and refuses to join the list to work out the problems she's causing for other contributors, I think it is unfair to others to allow her to continue.

I'm not happy about the content of her writing -- but I'm significantly *less* happy with her attitudes and behaviors towards others.

I don't want to pick on Ed Poor, because I'm sure there are other examples I could use. But I think Ed Poor believes a lot of false things. I'm sure he thinks that I believe a lot of false things. Maybe I think he's a nut. Maybe he thinks I'm a nut.

Fair enough, but he and I are both polite and reasonable, and I find it hard to envision a situation where we couldn't agree on what an encyclopedia article should say.
