How to Play Bomis Boyzâ„¢ Bondage and Discipline Games, WMF StyleQUOTE(everyking @ Wed 24th September 2008, 8:17am)

The discussion on Wikiversity regarding Jimbo's unprecedented actions there continues to
unfold in the Colloquium.
Just as
AN/Moulton hopelessly divided the community at WP, Jimbo's
unexplained intervention at Wikiversity has similarly deeply divided that community.
In the meantime, Ottava Rima has contacted Rosalind Picard and received feedback from her. Regarding her WP BLP, Picard writes, "I can
quibble with a few other things here and there but I won't, and besides the bio is so much better now than it was when I was receiving a large number of harassing emails from
a man named Don Hopkins."
If anyone is curious about those "harassing emails" arising from the false and defamatory content in that BLP, I was on the copy-to list and received them too. I will make them public to anyone who does not wish to remain mindlessly oblivious of the considerable harm caused by IDCab's persistent publication of those
demonstrably false and defamatory claims regarding Picard's purported view of Creationism vs. Evolution.
Moulton, as improper as Jimbo's action was, it's clear the WV community isn't entirely comfortable with what you were doing. Why don't you just promise to stop doing what they object to and see if they'll let you back in?
What I'm doing that they take vigorous exception to is
Bearing Accurate Witness in accordance with
Wikiversity Policy on Scholarly Ethics.
I accept that it is an egregious and unforgivable violation of WMF policy to
Bear Accurate Witness in accordance with the
Principles of Scholarly Ethics, and that I will
predictably be roundly excoriated, blocked, banned, bound, gagged, kicked, and unceremoniously locked up in the hall closet for having the
temerity chutzpah to engage in
authentic scholarship. So be it.
If it was good enough for Socrates, Beckett, Galileo, Mendel, and Darwin, Piaget, and Speilrein, it's good enough for me.
Let them do their damage. It's only a
Post-Modern Theater of the Absurd Comic Opera.
