[edit] Evidence of disputed behavior
(provide diffs and links)
1. IZAK violated WP:CIVIL and WP:AGF by stating that I have been "nominating and prodding"[1] . Prodding is defined " To goad to action; incite."[2] I nominated a few articles entirely in good faith as I felt they were legitimately non-notable.
- Update It seems I may have misunderstood what IZAK meant in the above quote. However there is certainly room for interpretation if he meant WP:PROD or actual "prodding". As such I suspend the above. However, I maintain the below grievances regarding IZAK. 07:35, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
2. IZAK violates WP:NPA and WP:AGF by referring to my nominating two articles for deletion as "but for any editor to set himself up as a kind of "grand inquisitor" of all synagogues and arbitrarily, in effect, abuse Wikipedia guidelines as an excuse"[3].
3. IZAK violates WP:NPA by likening my deletion of two articles for deletion to "We do not need a Wikipedia version of Kristalnacht"[4]. Kristalnacht was a night of horrible anti-semitism which took place through Germany. As an Orthodox Jew with many relatives who perished in the Holocaust I am absolutely horrified and nauseated by this sort of allegation and/or allusion. Moreover, to even consider for a moment that a nomination of an article by applying strict WP:N guidelines is a sort of Kristalnacht or anti-semitism is unconscionable. I can't help but to consider that Godwin's law applies to IZAK.
4. IZAK was warned by administrator Rjd0060 [5] and replied with ingidnancy and contempt, denial of personal attacks.
5. IZAK has engaged in threats and harassment by, "I would strongly advise you to stop and discuss the matter fully here before you go any further or stronegr action against your moves will unfortunately be necessary very soon."[6][7] By placing this both on my talk page and on the talk page of the project he attempted to induce a Chilling effect in order to scare me out of the discussion by alluding to the ability to curtail my abilities to edit on this project.
6. In response to the above threats, administrator Rjd0060 indicated to IZAK that his threats were inappropriate [8]
7. IZAK violated WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL by responsding to Rjd0060 by stating "Hi Rjd: Find someone else to lecture to and look up the meaning of the word chutzpah. I don't own anything and you don't own Wikipedia last I heard. Thanks."[9]
8. IZAK violated WP:CIVIL and other policies by calling for the immediate block of administrator John Carter which was resoundely rejected by the community [10]
9. IZAK violated WP:OWN by attempting to prematurely end an AfD with an "oppose" vote and stating the AfD should be ended and instead the discussion removed to the Judaism project page[11]
10. Same as above, but on another AfD [12]
11. IZAK fails to assume good faith in the AfD of Congregation Kol Emes (Richmond, Virginia) by stating, "you are now fanning the flames with requests for deletions of more synagogue articles" and "which you have chosen not to participate in but rather have just barreled on with these controversail AFDs. Please withdraw the nomination until such time as consensus is reached". [13]
12. IZAK used over-the-top hyperbole by stating on the above AfD, "Finally', if you had your way, would you also eliminate "Abraham, Isaac and Jacob" as the Jewish Biblical forefathers because they are "only" three people, or should the twelve sons of Jacob be called "not notable" because they were "only" twelve shepherds?" [14]
13. IZAK further assumed bad faith in his edit summary for this very RFCU when he writes, "How about a little honesty." [15] I am not sure how the 5 Oct 2004 date got in there, but it was not intentional on my part at all. IZAK should WP:AGF yet does not.
14. Soon after starting this RFC/U IZAK posted a note on my talk page demanding I "STOP the incitement"[16]. I have no clue what this alleged incitement is nor why is accusing me of canvasing. I did place a mere handful of notes on the talk pages of those whose diffs I used in the above claims and in one case I was specifically requested by the user to inform him when this RFC/U was ready[17]. WP:CANVASS says, "Neutrally worded notifications sent to a small number of editors are considered "friendly notices..." and this is exactly what I sent.
15. Again, on this very RFC/U IZAK refers to my editing as "erratic", reckless", I am "carefree" when nominating AfDs (I nominate only after very serious consideration), I have "disdain" for WP:JUDAISM, that I am a troll and quite simply disruptive[18]. Violations of WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL.
in an AfD IZAK left a post which very clearly violated WP:AGF and turned the AfD into a battleground in the most inappropriate place possible. He specifically wrote, "and it is upsetting to see that he does not wish to do things that will enhance contributions on Wikipedia rather than disgruntle editors."[19] I respectfully request that administrators review his behavior and intervene appropriately.
As you might know WP:TOV is my baby. I created it and am actively involved in it. A few days ago IZAK inserted himself into it, despite being explicitly told that him and I should avoid each other[20]. He has been actively posting on the talk page and has even been accused by another of being uncivil[21]. I have completely avoided posting in those sections in which IZAK is, but now he has gone ahead and even made changes to the project page[22]. Notice his edit summary- it's just a bit over the top. The crux of this issue is IZAK and I were told to avoid each other. I have done just that over the past few weeks. IZAK agreed to do just that[23] but clearly has not. There are so many project on Wikipedia in which his efforts put into. He agreed to work on things other than what I am working on. Yet he has come into WP:TOV, taken a decidedly contrary view point of my own and created a situation in which I do fear to further be involved in this project without major conflict.
