I live at WikiPedia, but I thought I'd set up a vacation home here....
I reside in WikiPedia:New_England, but I grew up in WikiPedia:Detroit, hence my interest in many of the pages I obsess about -- and my interest in Canada. I spent a lot of childhood watching the WikiPedia:CBC during the WikiPedia:Pierre_Elliott_Trudeau years....
I try to keep the following queries in mind as I work:
--> Working on Wikis
- Is it the truth?
- Is it fair to all concerned?
- Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
- Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
--> Working with others on Wikis
- Do I approach others with respect and concern?
- Am I concerned with community and its needs?
- Am I an agent for tolerance and acceptance?
- Can I forgive others easily?
- Is there harmony between what I believe and how I act?
Good pages here: EditWar | DissuadeReputation | CategoryConflict
Here's what I'm working on over there: http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bcorr/new_articles articles and projects
Talk with me http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Bcorr if you'd like
P.S. I'm not as active these days as I am now working from home as a consultant, and wikis are too tempting...but I do check in from time to time...

Thanks Bayle and Helmut! -- BrianCorr
hello Brian
This is one of the reason I think RealName are not always ok. No death threats were made. Just desperate fight to have the right to speak; till the point of overreaction (serious overreaction...).<snip> He is currently quite upset about me, because I am opposed to part of the idea. I see what he is curently doing, and I wonder what else he could do.
I just wanted to tell you this because of the information you displayed so easily initially. Again, courage :-) that impresses me :-) Good luck on mediation.
