I totalty agree with this, but i also want to put some focus on #wikipedia, a few months ago it accualy was a place that one could debate with others, but now it's nothing but insults to people that has other views of the world. (i'll again apoligze for my bad english.) It doesn't serve as an neutral meetingplace for the entire project, no matter what their views are on the war in iraq (for example).
mvh.

All Wikipedians,

I have to agree with Olve. And that is largely why I have not felt like paying attention to wikipedia-l lately. Sorry I haven't been around to voice my opinions against this idiocy. I do not have clearly defined convictions as to the interactions of both parties here (mainly Mark and YOU, harassment squad), but I am certain that this peck-order rudeness is not what Wikipedia needs to be. In fact, I dare say that this stuff needs to end here and now. If I were completely new to Wikipedia and signed up for wikipedia-l, I'd unsubscribe in a heartbeat. Leave Mark W. alone and get on with your lives.
Ooh, and I abbreviated here. Sorry. (Referencing a rude, old e-mail from a certain party which I felt no urge to respond.)
Have a great day. Takk, Ovne. Du forstår Wikipedia-l vel, og jeg er glad i deg for det. Nå skal jeg snakke norsk! (GOD it's been too long. Almost two years since I used Norwegian seriously. At least I can tell you something in Norwegian that people will not undertand literally in English. High five for Nordmenn -- we seem to get along well!)
Mark, you take care. Sorry I haven't been around. You have my support.

Dear Yann, Gerard & al.,
I have noticed that some people find it amusing (or whatever it is) to harrass (!) Mark W. Please stop with it -- Wikipedia has bigger problems than some of you not agreeing with Mark W. Acceptance of escalated personal attacks is one of them -- and it is not exactly like Mark W. has been proven to have a monopoly on those...
Respectfully,
Olve Utne (who is starting to get a bit sick of this peck-order-oriented list...)
