Re:Bentley's proton electron mass equation
I recieved your message quickly, and so I have decided to respond here instead of through email.

In all honesty, I know nothing about proton/election equations, and I won't pretend that I do. While I understand your concern with the deletion of your article, I did not voice any opinion as to what should be done with it; I just closed the vote and took the action that was voted on (in this case, deleting the article). Therefore, I'm not really the person who should be defending themself and/or Wikipedia; you should ask Johntex, SCZenz and Andrew pmk to do so, as they were the voters and not me.

As stated before, Wikipedia is not a place for original research. I'm not saying that I personally think your equation was unverifiable, false, or vandalism. No, not at all. However, since your article gained a unanimous delete vote, I simply followed protocol and deleted it.

I apologize that I cannot restore your article (otherwise I would be violating policy, as would any other administrator by doing so). However, you may file a case at Votes for undeletion for your article, and request that it be restored. Whether or not other administrators will agree to do so, I don't know. Wikipedia is certainly not full of "wiki-idiots", as your colleages claim, though users like that are not unheard of.

If you have any additional questions, please let me know.  Rob e  rt  01:25, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Also, my user page was vandalized by User:NivekAgev a short time after I posted the above reply, and his/her attacks were directed only at my page. I hope I do not find out that you are connected to this recent event.  Rob e  rt  03:17, 18 October 2005 (UTC

Re:part 2: Bentley's proton electron mass equation
Seeing as you do not wish to edit Wikipedia anymore, I don't know whether or not you will receive this message, but here goes:

You claim that you do not want your article restored. If that is the case, then what do you want? Are you simply posting messages on my talk page just to say that other users and/or myself "lack intelligence"? If that is the only purpose of your "defense", then I see no point to it. I have tried to be polite and civil, but after seeing your second comment, I now find it to be very hard to do so. Criticizing other users is unnecessary and rude. You imply that you are more intelligent than anyone at Wikipedia, an implication that I find very false. I don't care how smart you are, saying other users lack intelligence is uncalled for.

Also, I found your comment about "George Bush's cabinet" in your first post disturbing. Do you think everyone you don't know automatically dislikes Bush or his cabinet, and won't be offended if you make a comment like that? Sounds quite ignorant to me. Good thing I'm not a Republican.

If you are still concerned about my suggestion of you vandalizing, then fine, I apologize. Calling me paranoid does not help your cause.

Lastly, you claim that you write "eloquently and coherently", and that it is a waste of time to edit Wikipedia. Stuffing your sentences with 12-letter SAT words will not gain my respect, especially if they are insulting to myself or other users (which they are). Furthermore, if you wish to have stacks of documents which consist of nothing but "zOMG 3'/3 |20><0|25!!!1111", then I will be happy to refer some vandals to you.

If you don't want to edit Wikipedia, then don't edit it. Do not take your frustration out on me. I would like to again emphazise the fact that I did not vote on what should be done with your article, I merely carried out the action the consensus decided upon.

Unless you have something non-negative to say about me or any other user, talk to someone else.  Rob e  rt  22:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Re:part 3: Bentley's proton electron mass equation
I already told you, I don't know anything about physics. Punching numbers into a calulator does not suddenly make me understand what your equation is about. And, as I also said before, I "rubber-stamped" the article because consensus wanted to, not because I wanted to. If I didn't do it, then another admin would have, and you would be having this same discussion with that admin instead of me.

And yes, I know how to read; there's no reason to be sarcastic by saying "P.S. I apologize for the "big SAT words"".

I agree with Wikipedia's policies, while you don't. Fine, you're entitled to an opinion. We both know this is getting us nowhere. As such, I propose this discussion be ended now. I'll go about my business, while you go about yours.

If you have something else to say, please just say it to another user. I'm not interested in discussing this anymore, and I'm sure you aren't.  Rob e  rt  20:54, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
