Input requested
Dir Sir,

I wonder if you'd be so kind as to have a look at Arbitration/Requests/Case/Alastair_Haines_2, and comment there if and as you have time, inclination and ability.

I am still in the process of gathering evidence, but the broad points I'm making should, I hope, be verifiable merely by looking at Talk:Jehovah's Witnesses.

I would welcome your comments critical or supportive. Thank you.

 * Hi. I've had to revert your "accept" comment in the section you posted it. That section is for voting only by the arbitrators, and anyway, the case was accepted and opened a few days ago. If you have any relevant evidence to put before the committee, your input would be welcome at Arbitration/Requests/Case/Alastair Haines 2/Evidence. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 03:55, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I apologize for misunderstanding what was being asked of me. Thank you for remedying the error. ─AFA Prof01 (talk) 04:09, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, sir, for showing up. You're always a breath of fresh air.EGMichaels (talk) 04:16, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Christ myth theory
Hi Afaprof01. As you no doubt know, the Christ myth theory's GA status was withdrawn. However, while the GAR was underway the article was being improved. By the time the GAR was wrapping up most of the criticism had already gone stale and an admin said that the article should remain GA as a result. That didn't happen though. In any event, the last few minor POV issues have been resolved and the page has been relatively stable for the last few weeks. I'm a bit leery of resubmitting this for GA promotion again since the whole experience of uninformed mobocracy still lingers. But I noticed that the Wikiproject Christianity assesment page notes that I can contact a member of the wikiproject and request that an article's quality rating (A, B, C, etc) be reassessed. So that's what I'm doing. The Christ myth theory article is awesome; it's comprehensive, informative, impeccably well referenced, filled with pictures, well formated, etc, etc, etc. It easily meets the requirements for an A grade article. I'm therefore asking you, a member of wikiproject Christianity, to bump the article's quality grade from a "B" to an "A". Once this is done it might make getting and keeping the GA/FA status a little easier. Eugene (talk) 20:44, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Eugene, I am so very sorry you have gone through so much frustration, rebuff, and even insult with this article. I've "felt" for you all the way along but never felt I could make any contribution. At the same time, I was going through my share of trying times at what was Genesis Creation Myth. An amazing thing happened there, and the anti-Mythers finally prevailed, but it was a costly battle. Alastair Haines was unanimously banned for one year!
 * I'll be glad to do as you have asked with CMT. I wish I had more hope that I can do some good, but I believe in you and in your goals for the article, and will do my best. I'll be a little slow at first since this is the end of the semester. Please use my gmail account to shoot me any wise words of counsel. I hope you and your family and ministry are going well. ─AFA Prof01 (talk) 02:17, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

RE: United States Air Force Academy
You reverted an antivandalism edit by User:Favonian. This was undone by IP 72.254.99.222, whose edit was rollbacked by ClueBot. I undid that edit. (The edit in question showed Abu Ghraib prisoners being tortured. It was long enough to make it look like a section blanking.) I just thought I'd let you know. :) -- MithrandirAgain (Talk!) 05:51, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the heads-up. What I intended to delete was paragraphs and paragraphs of the very same text that appeared to be nonsense. ─AFA Prof01 (talk) 04:05, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
