== Re: Allen reversion-- ==

Two reasons, in a nutshell:
(1) whether Allen considers himself 'proud Jewish' can be put up to debate, on the basis of his own statements (he says he considers himself Presbyterian); and
(2) even with that aside, putting that info in the intro gave it undue weight.

The article's been subject to a neutrality challenge until just about a week ago, so editors tend to treat changes w/ vigilance -- if I hadn't made the rv, someone else would probably have done it within a couple of hours. --] 22:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

:Hi GGreeneVa -- it seems there was some confusion; I didn't put that edit in. It looks like a different edit I made (on a quote from Allen during ]) was mistakenly reverted by you, and then by another user. ] <small>(])</small> 22:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

::Ah -- hadn't even spotted that. My bad. --] 22:20, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

:::No worries. It's too bad, though, that it is getting increasingly difficult for people to contribute on articles like these in the usual wiki fashion. (I'm not criticising you here.) ] <small>(])</small> 22:21, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

==Adminship==

Sure, I'd accept a nomination. I went through a self-nom a few months back and was defeated by about a 50/50 vote. I'm a bit nervous about going through it again because I'm not sure that a supermajority of Wikipedians will understand the ongoing issues with which I'm involved. To wit, I was blocked a few weeks back by an administrator who was alerted to simmering (and still ongoing) dispute at ]. What's more, I'm involved in so many different contentious articles regarding science and pseudoscience that I believe there are some people who will vote against me out of principle (such as ] who basically did this the last time). I am of the opinion that adminship is irrelevant to this, though. What I would use admin tools for would be menial tasks. For example, it'd sure be nice to have rollback and the ability to speedy nonsense delete nonsense articles. Especially since I can't, for example, set up vandalproof at every computer I use. --] 23:04, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

:Great. I'll write something up. ] <small>(])</small> 23:05, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

==Let's cut this thing loose==

I'm going to withdraw. This is a waste of time. --] 17:34, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

:Yes. Again, sorry to have dragged you into it. ] <small>(])</small> 17:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
