I admitted my connection to Cookiecutteramaru as soon as I learned of the rules, and promised to stay out of the discussion. see my last post on April 22 [1] Cookiecutteramaru put a note on my userpage to make it obvious that he was helping me to join the discussion. I don't understand why Atama would delete that note. It shows that Cookiecutteramaru was being open about referring me to the discussion. If you look at the original version of the discussion, it is much easier to understand comments made in defence of the paper and the journal. [2] The initial discussion was mostly an attack on the Journal of Paleontological Sciences, including personal attacks on the reviewers, but most of those entries have been removed. Animalparty edited the Wikiarticle on one of the journal's editors, within 24 hours of speaking against the credibility of the journal in his discussion with Cookiecutteramaru. That information surfaced immediately before we were blocked. I am sorry that I got involved, but I think there should be a wider investigation into hiding of evidence and the lack of neutrality that went into editing of the article on Peter Larson.

IJReid [3] was mistaken in suggesting that Cookiecutteramaru made a comment on his page and signed it with my name. Please look to my contributions to see that I made that first comment, which started his user page.
