RK, you need to take it through the mediation process and if that fails, through the arbitration process. Ranting on the mailing list is not helpful.
You seem to misunderstand my point: Mediation is about coming to terms on what should be in an article. Fortunately, that particular kind of problem isn't being discussed here.
Hum. No. I disagree Robert. Mediation is about discussing an issue you have with another editor, and which prevents one or both of you from happily and satisfactorily contribute. It is not necessarily about an article, but may deal with a conflict between 2 people.

Danny doesn't make any edits to these articles; I perceived him as being abusive, and that is a violation of Wikipedia etiquette. He has made it clear that he has no intention of adding to the articles in question, despite my own repeated invitations for him to do so. He just was insulting me, which is not the point of our project.
As regards JFW, I didn't bring any concerns to the list, it was JFW who did this! I did reply, of course, to explain my confusion at his letter. Summary: JFW can add any info he likes; I'd be happy to see this. I repeatedly have agreed with him on all the points he makes about NPOV and article content, and so I do not understand why he has made himself believe the opposite. I did, however, strongly object made to a false claim about my not providing quotes that he asked for. If someone doesn't like the content of the quotes, they should complain to the author, not me! (Of course, if you missed his original letter here, and only saw my response, I can see how you would assume I was venting inappropriately.)
Here is my point, and I think that its what everyone here has always assumed as obvious: If you want to include a point-of-view, then write it. Never criticise others for not writing what you wish you had written yourself. This point, which I have made twice now, surely is not "ranting".
Sincerely,
Robert (RK)
