Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
Wkipedia's "Barbara Lerner Spectre" article has an unsourced "controversy" section. The only people who believe that there's a controversy are white nationalists (e.g. the people running Metapedia). Even if sources exist, it's the opinion of a fringe group and shouldn't included. The "Controversy" section of the article, as well as the "In 2010 ..." paragraph, should be removed.
P.S. Metapedia's article on Barbara Spectre was created by "Basileus", who writes hit pieces on Metapedia, including articles on eleven Wikipedians. What do we know about "Basileus"? Was he or she a former Wikipedian? What motivated him or her into creating articles on so many Wikipedians?

Besides some shared interest in certain topics, I don't see any connection between JeffLB and Basileus.

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
I think that Basileus might've been Yorkshirian (T-C-L). Compare the following:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=British_National_Party&diff=349678146&oldid=349677145 (March 13, 2010)
http://en.metapedia.org/m/index.php?title=British_National_Party&diff=68011&oldid=65170 (March 20, 2010)
Basileus didn't copy the March 20, 2010 version of the article to Metapedia, so he or she must've been aware of the edit warring that occurred several days earlier. Of the participants in the edit war, Yorkshirian seems to be the most promising suspect. The "Basileus" account on Metapedia was created a day after Yorkshirian was banned from Wikipedia:

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
I looked up Basileus, and it appears that he/she does a lot of white supremacist promotions, the basic areas that JeffLB edited on en.Wikipedia. However, just speculation from a quick glance.

As Wikipedia plagiarizes so much of its content, similarity of style is difficult to use; but, the day after account creation is a nice observation.Michaeldsuarez wrote:Michaeldsuarez wrote:I think that Basileus might've been Yorkshirian (T-C-L). Compare the following:

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
The first Wikipedia-related hit piece that Basileus wrote was on Chip Berlet. Basileus believes that Chip Berlet and "The_Four_Deuces" are the same person:
I have a hunch that Yorkshirian also believed that Chip Berlet and "The_Four_Deuces" were the same person:

I believe that I've seen enough to conclude that Basileus was Yorkshirian on Wikipedia.

I came up with another user who has contributed to Yorkshire articles. Curiouser and curiouser.--[[User:Harkey Lodger|Harkey Lodger]] ([[User talk:Harkey Lodger|talk]]) 21:36, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
There's only a single instance of the word "vertified" in the whole of Metapedia, and Basileus is responsible for that instance.Note the use of the word ''vertified''.

The userboxes of Yorkshirian's sockpuppet Gennarous:
Note the presence of fascist Golden Dawn symbol.This user is a Hellenophile.
"Basileus" was the title used by the Byzantine Emperors. The "Gennarous" account also engaged in edit wars with Cberlet, and Basileus later created a Metapedia hit piece on Chip Berlet.This user is interested in the Byzantine Empire

Yes, she said stuff, but it isn't Wikipedia's job to record every word a person's says. Wikipedia should only contain information on notable events. JeffLB's claims that the video is notable enough to include is original research; there needs to be reliable, secondary sources.JeffLB wrote:Here is a note I received from Lukeno94 on Dec. 13, 2013 about my adding the quote from BLS from the Israel Broadcasting Authority video, The Jews of Sweden: "This is your last warning. The next time you add defamatory content, as you did at Barbara Lerner Spectre, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Lukeno94" Firstly, I documented that BLS said those words on the Israel Broadcasting Authority video, The Jews of Sweden. Secondly, if you Google BLS you will find most of the first pages results allude to this quote. How is it defamatory to accurately quote someone about something they said that is generating a lot or most of the current interest in her? What am I missing? Or what is Lukeno94 missing?

That article was written by conspiracy theorist Patrick Haseldine who apparently hangs out with and absorbs the ideas of other Internet conspiracy theorists.

Morag once bought her mother Anne_Sharp (T-H-L) a then new biography of Anne's former colleague Benjamin Britten. A few day's later Anne rung Morag to say how shocking it was that certain things were suggested about "Ben and Peter" (Pears). She had always thought that they were simply not the marrying type. Anne was the clergy-marrying type. I do wonder what she would have thought of various Wikipedia and Commons-types.I wrote:When I've spoken to a friend of mine who's a veterinary lecturer...

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
A Wikipedian called "Hannibalcaesar" recently posted a comment on the talk page. Look at the contents of Hannibalcaesar's userpage:
And that's just the stuff that he or she didn't recently remove from his or her userpage. Here's the content that Hannibalcaesar posted to his userpage but recently tried to conceal:Hannibalcaesar wrote:allegiance=[[White people]], [[culture of Europe]]
This user favors absolute monarchy.
This user supports the restoration of the Tsar and the Russian Empire as a Constitutional Monarchy.
This user is a modern imperialist and believes in the re-establishment of the British Empire.
I hope that the Wikipedians are wise enough to not allow neo-Nazis such as Hannibalcaesar influence the article.This was a time when Europe was 100% white. It was decent, noble, and pure.
I like to study this topic from the German point of view.

JeffLB is back and is reverting Lizzy_B52's good work. All of JeffLB's revisions and comments to enwiki since May 2013 had been connected to that video. He's been at this (and nothing else) for nearly a year. JeffLB is presently a single-purpose, POV-pushing account, and enwiki's moderators ought to treat him as such. JeffLB is obviously a crypto-neo-Nazi; otherwise, he wouldn't be so obsessed with trying to insert information about an obscure video that only neo-Nazis care and complain about into the article.Lukeno94 wrote:And is constantly re-adding it.

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
A vandal caused a well-meaning anon to remove an entire paragraph. Here's the sequence of events:
1) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Barbara_Lerner_Spectre&diff=682330231&oldid=681414070
2) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Barbara_Lerner_Spectre&diff=682381935&oldid=682330231
The anon apparently believed that the whole paragraph was vandalism when the vandal merely changed a single word. Both revisions should be reverted.

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
Zumoarirodoka recreated the "controversy" section. On the bright side, Zumoarirodoka isn't a rightist and understands the nature of the source he or she is using, but on the downside, he or she is still using that source and has created a section that can easily become what Wikipedia term a "coatrack" for anti-Semitics to abuse.
P.S. When is someone going to remove the obvious "married her father" vandalism? LeesaaSlipsun has been publishing a bunch of subtle, low-key vandalism across several pages since September 28th, yet the only "person" to do anything about it was a bot.

Thanks, Stanistani, although that left a "controversy" section without references.

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
The section has been removed again, but what's interesting is this attempt to restore the section:

Also of interest:Nikolas Ojala wrote:No it is not. Anti-semitism refers to the fact that there are [[Semitic people]]. I would accept a claim that [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]], [[Josef Goebbels|Goebbels]] and [[Heinrich Himmler|Himmler]] were anti-semitists. Anti-Zionism refers to the fact that there is a political ideology called as [[Zionism]], comparable to other political ideologies. So, it should be obvious that because being a Semite does not equal being a Zionist, then Anti-Zionism is not an euphemism for Anti-Semitism. If someone misuses these words, that is another issue. ——[[User:Nikolas Ojala|Nikolas Ojala]] ([[User talk:Nikolas Ojala|talk]]) 12:53, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
[quote="Michaeldsuarez"]Nikolas Ojala appears not to speak English very well: "anti-semitists". Of course, that by itself doesn't discredit his argument. It doesn't need to.

This also means that the Nikolas Ojala who operates "modeemi.fi/~no/" is also the Nikolus Ojala on Wikipedia.
He published a long essay on Distributism on modeemi.fi/~no/:
https://www.modeemi.fi/~no/distr.html
He also wrote a parable-ish story about the Finnish people going extinct / being displaced by Muslims, which he blames on the Finnish people's alleged "self-hate" / guilt / lack of respect for their own culture:
https://modeemi.fi/~no/keskustelu.html
Also, the Nikolas Ojala of "hommaforum.org" and the Nikolas Ojala of Wikipedia are almost certainly the same person. Besides the shared racism, both are proponents of "distributism":Signature:
There is no racism in the fact that we want to preserve our country, our culture and our heritage. And if they use this word to mock and intimidate you, laugh for them. That word does not now mean anything anymore.

I don't need to touch the ''possible fringe nuttery'' of a book author, because the quote is a widely documented fact. It is just such an (in)famous quote that it could be found on at least that one book, written by a "''fringe nutter''" as [[User:Brustopher|Brustopher]] calls him. Even if you got Youtube somehow wipe out all those video clips, there are many copies on other sites. If [[User:Brustopher|Brustopher]] or anyone keeps doing such deletions, I would call that vandalism. Until now, we could say that [[User:Brustopher|Brustopher]] did not know about the wide documentation, but the other possible explanation could be that [[User:Brustopher|Brustopher]] was motivated by a political agenda. I don't wish to see any kind of deletion vandalism and expect good will.

Re: Barbara Lerner Spectre "controversy"
Israel has been accused of all sorts of things. Following its massive contribution to the Haiti earthquake relief effort, it was accused of stealing body parts from victims, an update of the Blood libel (T-H-L).Michaeldsuarez wrote:AlbertAndTheLion wrote:Why are we not told that Israel has been accused of using gas weapons?
