-== Direct copying from Wikipedia? ==
-What is the procedure if a Conservapedia article is found that is a direct copy from its Wikipedia counterpart? [[User:Jinkas|Jinkas]] 16:56, 16 July 2007 (EDT)
-:I remove. [[User:Niandra|<font color="#4d4d4d">Niandra</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:Niandra|talk]]</sup> 10:07, 20 July 2007 (EDT)
-== Banning of Jazzman831 ==
-(First of all, this is a sock account. I'm very sorry for doing this, but nobody is responding to their email.)
-I would like to question my ([[User:Jazzman831|Jazzman831]]) permanent ban by TK. He said I was [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block&user=&page=User%3AJazzman831 trolling], but I don't see how I was doing that at all. The only pages he reverted were [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Offshoring&diff=234143&oldid=230743 offshoring], which I fully explained in the talk page, the [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Innocence_Project&diff=234137&oldid=229409 Innocence Project], in which I only added a <nowiki>{{fact}}</nowiki> tag (which was later added by another user who was not banned for trolling), and [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Politics_of_global_warming&diff=234145&oldid=230768 Politics of Global Warming], which was a grammatical change.
-I don't see how any of these edits are trolling, and even if they are, I don't see how it's fair that I was permanently banned, seeing as how [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User:Conservateur some users] are banned for short periods of time for multiple instances of trolling. Not only was I not even given a warning, but I was given no explanation as well. I fear I may have been the victim of a combination of an overzealous sysop and the CP Contest.
-By the way, I emailed TK twice and have gotten no response. I have reason to believe he is simply ignoring my requests, as it's pretty obvious he has checked his email since I emailed him (see [http://www.conservapedia.com/User_talk:AManInBlack#Legalities.... here])
-Thanks,
-Jazzman831
-:"nobody" is responding to your e-mail?  I didn't get one, so that might explain me not responding.  [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 02:11, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
-:*The user was responded to. I was letting him back in, but given this post, perhaps not. I must not be giving fast enough service! --[[User:TK|<small>Sysop-</small>TK]] <sub>[[User_talk:TK|/MyTalk]]</sub> 02:35, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

-I don't know why you can't email me from my page. I think there is something wrong with the whole email system; your email was somehow dated July 9th!
-And yes, I'm claiming that my edits were innocent. As I said in my last email, you only reverted three of my edits; one was placing a <nowiki>{{fact}}</nowiki> tag on an unsourced statement, one was a grammatical change, and the last was fully explained on the talk page. I have made over 100 other edits; none of which were reverted. I did know that I was actually editing CP, but I thought I was improving it, in good faith.
-As for Wikipedia, I do edit over there, but certainly not enough to pretend to know how they do things over there. I can assure you I'm not taking anything from there and assuming that's how it works here.
-Thanks again, <br>

-Certainly, sorry...don't show a previous email, although without you enabling email through your preferences on CP, I cannot initiate email to you.
-So, you are claiming, if I have this right, that totally innocent editing on your part was the case?  Perhaps I am mistaken in assuming you knew you were tweaking CP by some of your edits?   Perhaps because you think the way things are done on Wikipedia, is the end all, and be all,  of the universe?  Is that, in essence what you are trying to say?
-You can IM me direct, if you wish: CPSysop_TK on Yahoo or Exculpatory1 on AIM.

-:I'm not sure what's going on, but there were some email problems on both ends. I now believe TK did not recieve my initial message, and it was unfair of me to assume he ignored me. Also due to the email problems, I did not realize he had sent me an email before I posted here. I appologize to TK for jumping to conclusions, and for falsely accusing him of foulplay. Our issues are not yet worked out, but now that we have established a working line of communication I do not believe I need this public forum anymore.
-:Thanks, and sorry to the sysops who man the Desk,
