I'm not so sure about the deleted comments, but I did go over all the changes to the actual page (not the discussion) that took place during those two days. It seems that the page was in the middle of a stupid edit war. Most of the deleted comments, as far as I could tell, were about "why was the page locked". You may not agree with the specific decisions, but it's hard to call them "unreasonable". > And it's just one example. There are many examples. > > Also, check why "משתמש:שי דוד" was deleted. Can you find any > explanation? Or is the explanation deleted too? No. The explanation says "מתחזה". There was a short discussion about it, but I cannot see the discussion itself. I'm assuming that the discussion ended with the assertion that David Shy is too well known, so that your friend's name was too confusing. The thing is, such things happen everywhere names are used. I had the exact same problem trying to buy a .co.il domain (and the collision was with someone that ISOC agreed is a cyber-squater). I eventually had to buy a totally different name. Such things happen. Don't get me wrong. My experience with wikipedia is not all positive myself. See http://israblog.nana.co.il/blogread.asp?blog=35850&blogcode=2483976. I still think your criticism seems excess. > > http://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%AA%D7%9E%D7%A9:%D7%A9%D7%99_%D7%93%D7%95%D7%93 > > > Uri. > -------------------------------------------------------- > > > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -- Shachar Shemesh Lingnu Open Source Consulting ltd.
