Types of socialism

edit

Vision Thing- You edited Types of socialism to read:

Some individualist anarchists such as Benjamin Tucker, and Pierre-Joseph Proudhon referred to their philosophy as socialism. However, the meaning of the term "socialism" has changed over time, and his philosophy "cannot be considered collectivist in any politically meaningful sense."[1][2]

Who is the he in the "his"? Is it Proudhon or Tucker? BobFromBrockley 14:44, 26 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Article on Matrixism: a Religion Based on the Writings of Aldous Huxley

edit

There is an article on a entheogenic new religious movement called Matrixism being created at User:Xoloz/Matrixism. There are numerous sources for this article yet it has because contentious because it deals with the subject of entheogens. Thought you might like to look at it and perhaps contribute. 206.124.144.3 05:22, 13 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Anarcho-syndicalism

edit

Hello, on the anarcho-syndicalism article you have reverted one of my edits without comment. As I stated in the edit summary, the sentence currently uses weasel words rather than attributing a particular source to the claim. Unfortunately this makes it an editorial not suitable for an encyclopedic work. If you could provide the actual quote from the source it would solve the problem, as we could determine if it is Ulrike or someone else, rather than simply a claim "being made".

Anarcho-capitalism

edit

Hello again. You've also restored a source to this article, "Blackwell Encyclopaedia of Political Thought", with the edit summary, "restoring valid sources". As I wrote in my edit summary, the article in question does not source the claim provided, the claim being that it refers to anarcho-capitalism as a form of individualist anarchism. As I specified, the article actually claims that individualist anarchism died off and was "reborn" as anarcho-capitalism. This would make anarcho-capitalism a descendant of individualist anarchism, not an ideology that falls under the category of individualist anarchism.

I have taken the time to look through these sources to ensure that they really back up the claims made in the text, this is a long process and many of the sources are quite acceptable. However, some are not. If, in the future, you wish to restore sources you think I've improperly removed I would appreciate specific references to each individual source, as I have given myself. Thanks. Etcetc 23:37, 19 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Individualist anarchism

edit

Hello again. You have removed all the sources I provided to balance the claim that anarcho-capitalism is a form of individualist anarchism. I understand that many anarcho-capitalists and those who sympathize with them would like the article to portray anarcho-capitalism as a form of individualist anarchism, however, it is important for the sake of npov that we present both sides of this issue. The article currently includes an entire list of sources that as supposed to have refer to anarcho-capitalism as a form of individualist anarchism (in fact some of these sources do, and some do not), as such it is incumbent on us to provide a list of sources that would deny this claim so that the text can bear out the undeniable fact that the assertion is a controversial one. If you want to talk about this, please feel free to message me anytime, but please do not remove accurate sources that are relevant to the text. Thanks. Etcetc 23:56, 19 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Individuaualist anarchism

edit

Excuse me, but you removed 4 sources from this article with the claim that they are "unreliable". I would like to point out that all of these sources are published, one from a reputable historian, and all are properly cited. Your subjective views on what is and is not reliable are not a proper justification for removing proper sources. I would further like to point out that many of the sources you left, which from all appearances do not offend you in the same manner, are in fact completely inappropriate for wikipedia, including links to webpages without and citation information, self-published essays in uploaded in pdf format, and sources whose text does not in fact justify the claims being made in the article. Please cease this kind of disruptive behavior. Thanks. Etcetc 00:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Reverting

edit

I have responded to your request for enforcement of user restrictions. That editor has been blocked per the restriction. However, I would also encourage you to discuss significant reversions and article changes on the associated article talk page. While we should be bold, we should also avoid causing conflicts and becoming disruptive for other editors. Always try to reach an agreeable solution with other editors and try to be nice even when others aren't. If I can help out in any way, let me know. Cheers! Vassyana 20:49, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Editwarring

edit

You are also editwarring, and misusing edit summaries. Do not use edit summaries for anything else that to explain the edit. Please follow dispute resolution if you cannot find common ground with fellow editors. I have placed a similar notice in other editors' talk pages that are editwarring with you. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 00:05, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Arbitration

edit

Hello. I've started an arbitration case against you due to your consistent edit warring across multiple articles. Your input is requested. :) -- infinity0 19:41, 29 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Block

edit
 

You have been blocked from editing for violating Wikipedia policy, by edit warring on Anarchism, despite previous warnings. You are blocked for 24 hours. Please discuss instead of continue to revert, treat other editors politely and respect consensus. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by replying here on your talk page by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}}. You may also email the blocking administrator or any administrator from this list instead, or mail unblock-en-l@mail.wikimedia.org. Vassyana 14:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Vision Thing (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I think that this 24h block is not appropriate because I was blocked for making two partial reverts on Anarchism which undid the controversial changes. Also, I'm currently tired from dealing with infinity0 and I didn't thought to edit anarchism article today anymore, so this block will be strictly punitive and not preventative. -- Vision Thing -- 15:11, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Block has already expired. If you remain blocked, please follow the instruction on how to remove an autoblock. - auburnpilot talk 14:49, 1 July 2007 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
