Society for Creative Anachronism
Thank you for your contributions to Society for Creative Anachronism. Please do not re-revert my reverts without discussing. That is how edit wars get started. I did not revert, as you say, "under flase pretenses". The phrase "protest against the 20th century" was already in use in the article when I started working on finding references for the largely unreferenced sections of the article. To the best of my ability to find the source of that phrase, it did in fact originate from the Webb article. If you don't like Webb, don't like his article, don't like what he says about the SCA, I suppose you can remove the entire phrase from the article, but to simply switch the reference to a false reference (a source in which the referenced material does not exist) is tantamount to vandalism, hence my assertion of vandalism. All user 192.18.101.5 did was swap references without changing the referenced material. Again, I renew my plea for your help and the help of the article's other editors in chasing down the proper sources for the unreferenced material in this article. Also, please remember to assume good faith. By the way, I myself am an active SCA member, and can hardly be accused of anti-SCA bias, but I think Wikipedia's neutrality policy, and good sense, dictate that we must show a balanced point of view, including some criticism of the SCA. That, and the fact that the phrase in question was fairly inocuous, is why I chose to find the source and let the phrase stand. If you simply cannot abide this phrase in the article, please delete it rather than simply misappropriating it. I hope this clears everything up. Wilhelm meis (talk) 22:30, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
