Will Beback has now placed the Chipster's article up for deletion:

Looks like a snowball keep to me. Worth remembering what happened on the first AfD:
QUOTE

Keep. This is barely worthy of a response. Cognition (talk ?Çó contribs) is a supporter or member of the LaRouche movement, a political cult headed by Lyndon LaRouche. Chip Berlet is an investigative journalist and researcher who specializes in tracking rightwing movements like the LaRouche organization, and he is therefore someone they perceive as an enemy. For that reason, Cognition is trying to have his Wikipedia entry deleted. In addition, the arbitration committee has ruled in two separate cases that LaRouche supporters are not allowed to use Wikipedia to promote LaRouche's ideas, or to further his cause. This VfD is in clear violation of those rulings. SlimVirgin (talk) July 2, 2005 21:55 (UTC)

I look forward to Slim dropping in again to condemn Chip as a LaRouche supporter.

They're refusing to delete his biography. It will be interesting to see if he now starts posting to this forum to complain about his treatment by Wikipedia's administration.

By the way, my request for clarification to ArbCom was to see if the 2005 ruling could be used to help control any current problems surrounding the LaRouche articles, not just with Berlet but with everyone. But, judging by Bainer's response it probably can't be.

Silly Cla68! ArbCom rulings are not to be applied in any places but where the power structure says they are to be applied! Otherwise the riff-raff might start demanding equitable treatment. Duh!
