Request for mediation
I have removed your request for mediation as it was not a request for clarification of an existing case, nor was it ripe for arbitration. You should explore other routes of dispute resolution before bringing a case to arbitration. The option open include informal mediation, Request for Comment on content or formal mediation. For any user conduct disputes, if there are relatively minor concerns you could try Wikiquette alerts, and if there are more serious conduct problems, a Request for Comment on user conduct". If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Arbitration Committee clerk Alexandr Dmitri (talk) 06:47, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Username and signature
Hi. If you really want to obscure your username, please consider changing it. Whatever username you do use, should be reflected and linked in your signature, along with a date/time stamp (all accomplished with " " (without quotes and nowiki tags)). —  Jeff G. ツ  15:16, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

¿How Much Does She Say Herself?
Because this is a living person who is considered by some an expert on certain matters of dispute, I wonder how much of this page is based on her own words, how much is based on public records, and how much is based on those who do not like what she has done. I would trust her to write her own page as much as I would trust her opponents to write it for her, and for much the same reasons, but I do believe they should be included in consideration.

Non-Controntational Signature
A. J. REDDSON

I took a look at one of your references, “Future War: Non-Lethal Weapons in Twenty-First-Century Warfare” (John B. ALEXANDER), and nearly sh** myself: ''“If a mere temporary flat tire is the objective, a simple caltrop of hollow tubes that let the air escape, even from self-sealing tires, is sufficient. However, if permanent damage is necessary, then improved caltrops are required.”'' Let’s start with the first line: ¿Does it occur to you what will happen if you impale THAT on your foot? Here’s a hint: ¿What do you thing will happen if you sharpen a metal pipe and impale it in yourself? Let’s address the second sentence: “Permanent damage” to a human being is within the definition of “serious injury” (indeed, is specifically in the definition in most jurisdictions). A. J. REDDSON

signing
Hi A Reddson, I was wondering if you could sign using four tildes ( ~ ). This attaches the datestamp which does two things to help. It lets others know when you posted so they can keep the flow of the threads straight and the datestamp is also used by the archiving bots so they can archive correctly; not posting the datestamp can thwart the bots.

Misuse Potential and Allegations of Torture
Non-Lethal weapons have been misused, with pepper spray and electroshock weapons frequently being mentioned technologies. Some misuse instances have been newsworthy, as well as in the employment of so-called “pain compliance” techniques against people attempting to practice non-violent civil disobedience. (we will insert here the reference to eye-swabbing) In 1997, Amnesty International released a report titled USA: Police use of pepper spray is tantamount to torture, which considered the repetitive use of pain-inducing non-lethal weapons on humans to be cruel, if not torture, questioning if such use could be considered abusive or in violation of the 1984 United Nations Convention against torture and other cruelties.

However, these criticism statements have themselves been subject to sharp criticism, with multiple studies repudiating such claims. The National Institute of Justice and the International Association of Chiefs of Police provided strong evidence that the claims were greatly exaggerated, if true at all (need source here). Follow-up studies further supported the use of pepper spray as an effective and relatively safe method of controlling violent people, especially when other alternatives were inappropriate or unavailable, (Source here.) and studies have found that properly employed NL weapons statistically reduce injury rates on Law Enforcement Personnel (another source here). While there are certainly concerns for overuse there does not appear to be any clear evidence that any particular NL techology should be considered noteworthily more susceptible to potential misuse.

Advances in technology and warfare
Extensive use of technicals (civilian or military non-combat vehicle modified to provide an offensive capability), many with improvised armor (an attempt to improve survivability) by loyalist and anti-Gaddafi forces was seen to move to and fro on the desert terrain. They quickly become the vehicle of choice for both sides (despite the use of tanks and helicopters). Medium flatbed trucks carrying the Soviet-made towed quad barreled ZPU and twin barreled ZU-23-2 guns, recoilless rifles, and UB-32 helicopter rocket launcher pods were the most common seen; In the case of rocket launchers, low-tech devices were improvised to activate the weapons (such as the use of doorbells).

October 2011
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Non-lethal weapon. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 17:57, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Your MedCab request
Andering, I've closed your MedCab request on the pit maneuver as premature because MedCab now requires some other form of dispute resolution to be tried first. If you want to take this further, then you can take it to Third Opinion (if there are only two editors involved), Dispute Resolution Noticeboard, or to an RFC, but since you know me a bit, let me suggest to you that it is probably not worth your time to do so unless you can show where in Wikipedia policy it says that this material should not be included. The argument that Wikipedia can be held liable is not, by itself, going to be enough to keep the information out and is, indeed, probably not correct, for the reasons discussed at Bomb-making_instructions_on_the_internet:"Most American websites offering bomb-making instructions would not face civil liability, since Hess v. Indiana and Waller v. Osbourne determined that free speech restrictions can only be applied if the goal was 'producing imminent lawless conduct' among a single target group – which is not the case for a website available to a large swath of the population – making the situation comparable to music advocating violence or suicide in its lyrics."The WP:NOTCENSORED policy stands against you and you've not responded to why it does not apply to this situation. If you think that it should not apply, then the proper approach is to either (a) try to change the policy, not to just edit in violation of it, or (b) to seek a local exception to the policy, but to get a local exception you have to obtain consensus for the exception to be made and as of this point in time, you don't have it. Frankly, my suggestion would be to Drop the stick, but if you want to take it further then use one of the DR forums which I've recommended, above.

you can tell when someone's a noob by....
when he starts a new section, unsure of how to properly throw in an edit, afraid he might make the whole thing blow up... anyhow i didnt really read anything "sarcastic, snooty, rude, disrepectful or otherwise inaaprotiate tone" (and i like how you've showed me that I've always searched for that phrase, never thought of how to put it into words),but if you'd quote it for me, i'd be glad (or mad)to know what part of your message you thought of as such. and I'm also interested in knowing what parts of my message you didn't think were nice, as I didn't at all intend any part of my comments as not nice and would be glad to correct them.

however when it comes to bringing things to at least a high school standard, spelling would definitely be a plus! i was quite confused for a while when "...[I was] NOT rude to men..."

oh and dont abhor sarcasm, it can sometimes be used when you're feeling mean, for a fun time! =)

Bocage etc
Hi. I notice you've reverted again on the Rhino tank article. I'd thought we'd settled this on the article talk page, but apparently not. However, I have no objection to explaining once more that "bocage" doesn't just refer (as you seem to believe) to the banked hedges, but to the entire "countryside or landscape (as of western France) marked by intermingling patches of woodland and heath, small fields, tall hedgerows, and orchard". The tusks were designed to breach the hedgerow part of that landscape; why would they be needed to breach small fields, heath or orchards? I appreciate that you don't find the word "hedgerow" to be an accurate description of the Normandy hedgerows, but it's what the sources seem to use. I will again try to rewrite that section to make it clearer. Before edit warring, please take a second to consider whether your edits are beneficial or are introducing imprecision into the article. Thank you, EyeSerene talk 08:59, 6 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your response. If you feel this needs to go through WP:DR by all means do whatever you see fit. I'll cooperate with any procedures you initiate. However, I read the article talk page as you agreeing (or at least accepting) that the banked hedges are in fact referred to as "hedgerows" by the sources, and that "bocage" means to the entire landscape and not just the hedges. You'll notice that I've rewritten the lead to avoid use of the disputed term, and added additional explanation to the article body. I think this is as far as I'm prepared to go in the way of compromise though, because it's fairly clear to me that you seem to be basing your stance on your own understanding of the word "hedgerow" (for example, here you appear to think the word means "Overgrown Rosebushes"), and on a desire to recognise the sacrifice of those individuals who found themselves having to fight in the bocage in 1944. While understandable, unfortunately neither of those positions are sustainable under Wikipedia policy, which constrains us to follow what the sources say without interpretation or editorialising and to set aside personal feelings as far as possible.

German tank engines
I came across your comment on the M4 Sherman talk page regarding German tank engines. Be notified that, to my knowledge, all German tanks ran on gasoline. Refer to e.g. Maybach HL230. That German tanks were not as prone to "brewing up" had different reasons than the choice of fuel. (And actually, one of the initial problems with the Pz V Panther were engine room fires due to fuel fumes igniting.) Hope you find this information useful. -- DevSolar (talk) 12:00, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * You could have replied here, which would make the talk a bit less... confusing. I was not talking about "MaBach", but "Maybach", the manufacturer of most German tank engines - which were running on gasoline. This was in reply to your edit on the M4 Sherman talk page. The decision for gasoline tank engines was not stupidity on behalf of the Germans, but necessity. Germany has virtually no indigenous oil reserves, and had to rely on Coal liquefaction for most of its fuel production - which yielded gasoline, not diesel. -- DevSolar (talk) 08:44, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * First of all this was in the talk page. Second of all it was a question. Third, ¿is it REALLY this important? Trying To Make Wikipedia At Least Better Than The &#39;&#39;Weekly World News.&#39;&#39; (talk) 05:47, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
 * "German tanks were powered by diesel" is not a question, it's a statement, it's false, and since this is an encyclopedia, it's about correct knowledge. If you don't like being corrected, you're in the wrong place, because here, it is important. -- DevSolar (talk) 11:57, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
