Some of the more hilarious rhetoric, most but not all in the pot-kettle department

WMC
  • "my attention was drawn to CF"
    (we used to call it stalking)
  • admits to protecting a page version for amusement value
  • "A often seemed confused about the terms of the ban"
    (that would be "an indeterminate period of approximately a month" which "remains, to be reviewed in approximately another month" )

Enric Naval
  • "Abd believes that he knows better than other users"
    (of course, it's Enric itself who knows best)
  • "Abd says that hoaxes should not be deleted, and hoaxers tolerated"
    (Abd said that hoaxes should be blanked by any user instead of deleted by admins)
  • "Abd assumes the existance of bad-faith cabals"
    (I wonder where he gets that idea from?)
  • "Abd performs experiments with democracy"
    (outrageous)
  • "Abd sees no problem at all with his very long posts"
    (subheading 25 out of 27 total in Enric's evidence)

Mathsci
  • "Abd has made unfounded statements about William M. Connolley" / "WMC is part of some covert off-wiki conspiracy." / "Since this case began he has written that WMC has been "coddling" me."
    (Such as by blocking people who annoy Mathsci, whom WMC meets for drinks IRL)
  • "Abd claims to have scientific expertise"
    (Mathsci claims to be a scientist but his expertise is in pure mathematics)
  • "Abd appears to be supported by a small tag team"
    (Mathsci's being a little larger)
  • "My brief involvement on Talk:Cold fusion has been minimal and constructive"
    (16 edits, including "Abd's contributions here seem to be extremely skewed." "In view of his poor namespace editing record, my advice to Abd is to attempt to edit a non-controversial article on science in order to get more experience in handling scientific sourcing in a completely neutral context. That might be a valuable eye-opener." "Abd is not the person to lead discussions here.")
