I selected this because it's the quickest to refute:
Here he refers to Prof. Klehr's work as "outrageous McCarthyite POV Red-baiting defamatory Blacklist " http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Americans_in_the_Venona_pa...
No he doesn't.
He earlier added some commentary on the list which according to the edit summary "added critical POV to balance page list".
This was then removed with the comment "this page is a list of names, not a forum to debate their significance".
The edit in question restres the commentary with the summary"Revert: Otherwise this is an outrageous McCarthyite POV Red-baiting defamatory Blacklist".
In other words, the words you quote above refer to our article on the subject, not to the list itself, with the disclaimer that this description covers a version of the list without commentary.
