Since I posted this as an update to my comments in the RFC in
question, I thought I'd do it here too:
I have to start by apologizing for the tone of my earlier piece;
whatever my beliefs may be about other editors, pursuing grudges in a
nasty way is not the best of human behavior, and I need to always
remember to assume good faith. Also, I don't always understand all of
the facts behind complex disputes, so sometimes I may be mistaken, as
Cla68 seems to have been regarding several of his own actions here. I
think his putting of Weiss up for deletion was a silly move; although
the policy at the time might be readable to cover it, deleting an
article about a notable person just because there have been possible
conflicts of interest in its past editing doesn't seem to be the best
practice. I'll try to assume good faith about everyone involved, as
much as possible, and hope they'll do the same and not overreact to
anybody else's actions that seem to resemble or recall those of a
hated troll. *Dan T.* 22:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC) (P.S.: Is Gary Weiss
any relation to investment newsletter publisher Martin Weiss? Before
getting into this whole controversy here, I'd heard of the latter,
but not the former.)
