Rather I'd suggest a temporary ban of RK because of repeated NPOV abuses, if that didn't entail accusations of Anti-Semitism on Wikipedia.
My earlier statements requesting clarification of Wikipedia policy came from my observing the way RK on the one hand, ignores it, and on the other hand accuses others of ignoring it.
I too would support a temporary ban of RK. He is always biasing things.
You misunderstood. I don't call for a ban of RK.
First, I consider myself (like you, too) in regard to RK's writings as clearly biased and not able to judge if he deserves a ban. It seems to me that he really has NPOV in mind, but is too mangled in his hatred against anything he considers as anti-semitic to realize how biased his own writings are. However, I would prefer if anybody whose emotions go that high refrains voluntarily from writing in this area. I trust people like Julie more to write accurately and adequately about Wagner's anti-semitism.
Second, I consider a ban as really dangerous. As I already pointed out in my previous posting, even a rumour of anti-semitism (justified or unjustified) is likely to seriously harm Wikipedia.
Better be anti-Arab, it is politically a lot more opportune...
