you've dropped in seems to add little relevant information about Miscavige as a public figure... it largely comes across as an attempt on your part to make him look good. You should be aware that Scientology-related articles have a unique history at Knowledge--at one point, an number of editors on different "sides" of Scientology issues were permanently banned from editing in those areas--so that articles about other topics on Knowledge are not necessarily a good guide as to the standards that prevail re: Scientology-related topics. Folks are likely to jump on anything that seems partisan in that domain, so I advise you to be as scrupulously objective and rigorous about what really is relevant to the article as possible. And count on the fact that some frustration will come along with the process. --

material or tangential/irrelevant facts, may fall outside Knowledge's scope and should be removed altogether," it is possible to construe this information as irrelevant; however, given other pieces of information within this page being not as relevant, adding this information about David Miscavige is equally relevant. Two examples of this are: "Among Scientologists, Miscavige is often referred to by his initials, "DM," or "C.O.B.," for Chairman of the Board. He reportedly lives at Scientology's Gold Base, which is also the main RTC headquarters, near Hemet, California.".

David Miscavige and other religous figures as well. I have a genuine concern for fairness in Knowledge; I have been attempting to add truthful information to the article and other articles to make sure that the articles are well-balanced and objective. Please make your case and explain further why I am labeled as a sock account -- I deny the allegation and say with full conviction that I am genuinely interested in making Knowledge a better resource for all us.

Groups), Twitter feeds, Usenet newsgroups or e-mail lists," you are absolutely correct. These types of links do not belong on Knowledge. My apologies for making such an error. I did want to mention that I have seen many Facebook and Twitter links on Knowledge. Are these just legacy links? Or have they just not yet been flagged? Thanks. 304: 496: 258: 205: 170:

No sufficient reason has been stated for the blocking of my account. It is not fair just to be blocked on the basis of adding non-negative information on the David Miscavige page and being labeled as a sympathizer automatically.

I'm sorry to say that I disagree that your latest addition to the article was "helpful and legit." Your changes will consistently (and correctly) be reverted if everything you add is of the same nature: Miscavige proclaiming the goodness of Scientology or himself. That is far removed from neutral,

Hi. I, too, have had unpleasant experiences with Cirt, who seems to have a tendency toward being officious with the effect of discouraging, rather than helping, other editors. That said, I agree with his (or her) removal of your recent additions to the David Miscavige article. Most of the material

Hey Cirt, thanks for the warm welcome. I wanted to comment on this removal. As stated in the page you sent me, Knowledge states: "Trivia sections should not simply be removed from articles in all cases. It may be possible to integrate some items into the article text. Some facts may belong in

Here is the text I pulled from: "During frequent visits to Clearwater, where his mother lives, Miscavige said he spends his nights in Scientology’s staff dormitory, a converted apartment complex on Saturn Avenue. He said he eats in Scientology’s communal dining halls and sometimes gets out to
