I would ask again that discussion remain confined to the topic of this thread, and that all users pay special mind to T:ATTACKS, as well as T:POINT, and refrain from Those policies are quite simply understood.
 * 1) attacking users rather than the points being made
 * 2) publishing potential slander about real-life persons or businesses


 * (Since I am now being spoken about as well, though, I will state for the record that in the original discussion which led to the initial deletion of these pages, held in private amongst multiple admin, I refrained from taking a position, and continually re-affirmed my neutrality, because while it was taking place I did not have the time to devote to looking into this matter. When a proposal was brought forward, I stated that I would not get in the way of whatever is decided, so long as it was consistent with precedents and policy. I do not appreciate being misrepresented, and I approached Amorkuz in private immediately after he made the claim about "three admins" actively taking part in the decision to express that I did not appreciate this false claim. I have kept away from all three discussions thus far, and my quick admin note above does not constitute participation.


 * What is referred to above as me "arguing for various outcomes privately" was in fact me approaching Amorkuz, ahead of any public post as a matter of respect, with some of the results of the extensive research I have undertaken in the last few days to work out the best resolution of this thread, according to precedents and policy. I do not understand the implication being made about my not being impartial, as I am affiliated with no one, have nothing to lose or gain here, and have refrained from all participation since this topic first entered the forums.)

Now, since it seems I have to say it again, will all contributors to this thread please keep discussion here to matters of policy, evidence and past decisions, and keep discussion of matters related to individual users confined to user talk pages, in keeping with T:POINT and T:ATTACKS, going forward.
