Hi

Thanks for your message, I see the R Riots article is redirected now. If you created a unique article that didnt start off with "about the European riots", then its likely to be seen as a duplication of the existing French article to which its redirected now. If you created something unique, then it could stay. good luck!--Matt57 01:17, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, the article was original, and was based on existing information and about the connections btw the european riots and Islamism, showing facts about the numerous links to Europe's rising islamism in the our suburbs, as well as the islamist inclinations of the actual rioters themselves. No info was borrowed or taken from the existing article. Everything was footnoted down to a tee including some 50+ references, from news reports, statistics, studies, historians, and mainstream demographic polls. It appears that one single muslim - "Aliyah" something, started crying wolf and "islamophobia", and next thing you know the article was deleted without any factual errors being pointed out. Everything was factual. No one was able to prove any inaccuracies. A few people tried pointing out that everything was sourced and should be merged with the main article, yet the article was deleted, by what looks like a majority muslim vote. This is frankly outrageous and looks and smells like political correctness to me. I have saved a backup code & text from the article, it would be great if you'd be able to take a look at it and give me your take on it. TimothyHavelock 06:39, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've made a blank page for you: User:TimothyHavelock/Ramadan Riots, you can shift the material you had into this page and work on it as you like. Repost it again into this page and I might take a look to see how we can make it different from the other articles. --Matt57 14:30, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting back to me, sorry for the late reply, but I've been swamped with work IRL. Great solution. I'll definitely re-paste the article to the blank workpage and get back to you. Thanks. TimothyHavelock 19:43, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
