Dispute 1

Can the Linux Kernel Mailing List, a public bulletin board that allows anonymous postings with forged email headers, be considered a reputable primary or secondary source under Wikipedia:Reliable sources.

Position 1

The Linux Kernel Mailing List, a public bulletin board that allows anonymous postings with forged email headers, is being used as both a primary and secondary source for this article. Wikipedia:Reliable sources bars the use of bulletin boards, weblog postings, and other unverifiable content except in articles about the subject itself LKML. This content should be removed from this article and placed into the LKML article where it belongs. Waya sahoni 20:29, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Position 2

Any user who attempts edits to the article or discussion on the article talk page is subjected to sockpuppetry acussasions, perpetual user page vandalism, and revert wars until the current editors drive them away from the article and who have disparaging comments about the subject of the article on their user page.

Outside view

Let me get this straight - I either support Jeff's urgent need to delete most of the Jeffrey Vernon Merkey article under his particular reading of the wikipedia rules, or I support Jeff's twisted and self-aggrandising ad-hominem attack on the vast majority of the people who edit the page which bears his name? Sorry, this is a false dilemma. I support neither of the viewpoints in this bogus debate framed by a sockpuppet of User:Gadugi. And by the way, Jeff, you're banned. Get off Wikipedia already. --Aim Here 01:54, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NOTE: I deny these false and vicious allegations. CheckUser reports no links between User:Gadugi and User:Waya sahoni with the exception we are both of the same race. I view this comment posted here as racial stereotyping. Also, check the contribs of these two users -- they are persistent vandals and sockpuppet role accounts for the SCOX messages board, it is suspected these accounts also are shared by several users and go through a proxy. They also posted comments on the Talk page of the article attacking my sexual orientation and hurtful and cruel racial comments ("you all look the same to me" kind of stuff).
