Reliability of Al-Jazeera?

In the summery of your recent edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Pillar_of_Defense&diff=next&oldid=530630508 it appears that you are calling Al-Jazeera "barely reliable". Do you have any reason to question the reliablilty of Al-Jazeera, or is it your opinion that all arabic news sources are inherently unreliable? PerDaniel (talk) 03:39, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

See Al Jazeera controversies and criticism.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 14:16, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

There is nothing there that should exclude Al-Jazera as a reliable source. PerDaniel (talk) 09:49, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Sepsis II

You are probably aware that this user removed your warning on his talk page. I rather think his edit summaries are as much of a problem as his talk page deletions.

• Undid revision 530703428 by Wikieditorpro (talk)extreme insults from a likely banned editor)
• ... undoing purposeful distortion of history)
• ridiculous well poisoning - anti-resistance propaganda,....
• ... no intelligent reason given for change by highly likely banned user)
• Undoing shamelessly blatant propagandizing

You may wish to advise him that AGF and NPA also apply to edit summaries.

All the best, Rich Farmbrough, 00:13, 3 January 2013 (UTC).

Thanks. He is beyond being "advised" about anything. He is a reincarnated banned user but I just can't pin down which one as most of the banned users were banned for this type of behavior. I wish a CU would help but alas this is too much of a bureaucratic minefield.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 00:50, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

I was working on some tools which could probably have cracked that, but I'm tied up with my friends from ArbCom the past 8 months, so nothing is likely to reach production soon. Some people (such as Elen) are pretty good at recognising banned users. Rich Farmbrough, 01:34, 3 January 2013 (UTC).

Please do let me know when you churn out this tool. Thanks. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 02:42, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Barnstar of Good Humor
	For dealing with POV-pushers in style. Well, I'm off to manipulate some currencies, buy some more media companies, y'know, the usual. — Francophonie&Androphilie(Je vous invite à me parler) 19:45, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Haha :) Thanks. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 14:56, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Moderation of Jerusalem RfC

Hello. You are receiving this message because you have recently participated at Talk:Jerusalem or because you were listed at one of the two recent requests for mediation of the Jerusalem article (1, 2). The Arbitration Committee recently mandated a binding request for comments about the wording of the lead of the Jerusalem article, and this message is to let you know that there is currently a moderated discussion underway to decide how that request for comments should be structured. If you are interested in participating in the discussion, you are invited to read the thread at Talk:Jerusalem#Moderation, add yourself to the list of participants, and leave a statement. Please note that this discussion will not affect the contents of the article directly; the contents of the article will be decided in the request for comments itself, which will begin after we have finalised its structure. If you do not wish to participate in the present discussion, you may safely ignore this message; there is no need to respond. If you have any questions or comments about this, please leave them at my talk page. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 12:07, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Brew. Thanks for the heads up. You just left a comment on my talk page after undoing one of my changes. Please note, the section I removed on Robert Spencer's page was removed previously by me after much discussion on the talk page. That talk page has since been archived. Please do take a look at the archives of the Robert Spencer's talk pages if you need reassurance (it was sometime in 2011). Thanks.1detour (talk) 17:22, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

The Case of the Kidnapped Collie

Thanks for tagging this article for notability back in 2008. It's still tagged; you may want to take it to the Notability noticeboard or AfD to get it resolved. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 13:24, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
