KIMEP

[edit]

As there were no sources for the controversies section, it is understandable to remove the material. However, the fact that you are a "serving administrator" at KIMEP (as you said here) makes any editing of the KIMEP article by you (under this username or any other) or by your colleagues potentially inappropriate per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. Additionally, the fact that your account has only been used for edits related to the KIMEP article makes it seem like a single-purpose account. If you wish to keep editing the KIMEP article, I suggest you start finding and adding reliable sources, which is the best way to counter the writings of people like Michael C. McHugh.

Bushmills here. There are plenty of sources for the material - students past and present, currently serving staff, and those who have since left KIMEP. We have plenty of incriminating e-mails from corrupt officials such as Drs Bang and Rahman. Furthermore, I am not a serving administrator, and my account is not exclusively dedicated to dissing KIMEP. Why can't you, whoever you might be, face up to the fact that there is always an alternative version of the truth to that peddled by the establishment. Are you some sort of totalitarian? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bushmills2000 (talkcontribs) 14:54, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mr/Ms Otebig, I have left a message on your talk page.Prodigal55 (talk) 18:53, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mr/Ms Bushmills2000, Wikipedia guidelines call for the use of RELIABLE sources, which is the point Mr/Ms Otebig was making above. None of the sources you cite can be considered reliable -- your own words ("incriminating e-mails") are evidence of that. The "controversies" section is best left out of an article that is intended to be encyclopedic. There are other venues, such as the so-called "KIMEP Blog", for venting your point of view (oh wait, that's been taken down. . .) Furthermore, by implying that I am "some sort of totalitarian" you are violating Wikipedia guidelines on the use of talk pages ("no personal attacks").Prodigal55 (talk) 19:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
