In my opinion, Katefan0 should take Brandt to court for harassment. - Ta bu shi da yu 04:35, 30 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I totally agree, I fail to understand what motivates people to do stuff like this. I cannot believe that I have had to delete my user page history in order to protect myself. Rje 18:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC)


 * There really are a lot of fools in the world, unfortunately most of them have taken up the fight against Wikipedia. - Ta bu shi da yu 13:23, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, amen to that. Snoutwood (talk) 18:43, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

"It's still unclear who made the threat." – What threat? Is calling the police "the threat" or did someone actually make a threat? heqs 00:44, 2 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Calling the police. Sorry for the confusion.  Ral315 (talk) 01:57, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

"...a Wikipedia criticism site where such a threat was hinted at." – Not trying to nitpick here, but again, what is the threat? Is the act of submitting info to authorities the threat, or did someone threaten to do it? heqs 02:21, 2 June 2006 (UTC)


 * There, it was a threat. A few users made comments that at the very least bordered on a threat to call the authorities.  Ral315 (talk) 03:07, 2 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Maybe that should be stated more clearly in the story then. It's still somewhat confusing use of the word "threat". heqs 17:32, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

This is confusing
Um, what the hell did Katefan0 do? Is she...at U of Iowa? Is Katefan somehow involved with this story? It jumps from Snowspinner's story to Brandt threatening to inform Katefan0's employer of her work on Wikipedia. What, is Wikipedia now a crime? Can someone please clarify this? I am so terribly confused. Hbdragon88 05:16, 3 June 2006 (UTC)


 * They're two closely related issues involving Wikipedia Review. As you said, "It jumps from Snowspinner's story to Brandt threatening to inform Katefan0's employer of her work on Wikipedia."  That's the story, basically.  Ral315 (talk) 06:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Was she involved with the Lir/Snowspinner incident? Did Lir call up the police on Katefan0?  Or did some other Wikipedia Review user call up the police on her? Hbdragon88 03:22, 5 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Nobody called the police on Katefan0, and she was not in any way involved with the Snowspinner incident. They're two similar stories.  They're not connected.  Ral315 (talk) 22:59, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
