Okay

[edit]

I am not sure what this is. But the last article I was editing I was making correct and the person continued to make false and incorrect changes. That person does not know a thing about history or politics if he/she thinks the Democrats have their roots in Jefferson, especially seeing as how Jefferson was a Democratic-Republican and referred to as a Republican and Andrew Jackson (the real roots of the democratic party, I am sorry if this is a sore spot that he was the founder of the party) won his presidency as a Democrat running against John Q. Adams who was a Democratic-Republican their very party of Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe! They would not listen to the changes, the Republican's have their roots in BOTH the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans which is why they are seen as "conservative;" Lincoln said that. Jackson said his roots were in Jefferson, and Jefferson "Jackson is dangerous and bad for America and his politics are in no way like mine." So, if they were not going to listen to reason and given more privileges no matter how wrong they were, even when I placed the tags of only inaccuracies...they needed to listen to the truth.

So, if the person is not going to put accuracies in their article he/she needs to no longer edit an article themselves…I was in the process of adding citations and am simply getting used to the format but in no way should wrong information remain there, and the correct information was there until I was able to add the appropriate citations. Citations which are lacking in the current article on “American Democrats” because it is full of lies, fallacies and optimism that just do not exist therefore the citations or proof would not exists. Bottom line, its inaccurate, I was trying to correct but one person that has been spoon-fed bull and lies, is continued to allow false information. Thus, continuing to make Wiki non-academic, and come under heavy criticism.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Waggthedog (talkcontribs)

I understand and it is fine to disagree with another user. What I am saying however is that your comments were not solely on content but rather were laced with personal attacks against the user and that is not acceptable on Wikipedia. We all get heated sometimes about issues which we are passionate about however please try to keep your comments on content and not attacks on users. Thanks.--Jersey Devil (talk) 22:51, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that as well; however, the issue was not an issue of passion bur rather integrity of knowledge. What I put was not an opinion, but rather fact. If you wish to have an address of integrity, then the person placing false information on this site, needs to be booted as well. No "discussion" but a ban. Otherwise, those with no academic backing, like the one I more than likely "attacked" will continue false information and damage the Integrity of Wiki, and knowledge in general. I understand where you are comming from, but I won't allow somone to piss on knowledge and shit on history.
