":::I was surprised to realise that you had filed a checkuser request about me several days ago. And a little disappointed that you did not inform me of this. I did not really understand why you mentioned in the request that I had left a comment for Jimmy Wales, as though this was evidence of some bad intent. And I would say that Mr Wales more than agreed ""to some extent."" His intervention was quick, clear and decisive (about a matter that had been ongoing for many months, and about which I had been told by other editors that I was disruptive because I was putting arguments with no validity). And even though in his first comment on the matter he indicated that he was not convinced the matter was libelous, only that it was blatant original research, in his follow-up comments he made it clear he considered the matter non-notable, and that there was absolutely no justification for its inclusion. I can only hope that, whatever doubts you had, they are now allayed. As I have mentioned on other occasions, I have no connection to Mr Langan, am not a proponent of his ideas, am not a proponent of ID, and only know of Mr Langan through the media (particularly the Errol Morris program). I am actually surprised they allowed the request, given that no evidence of bad behaviour was given, but now that you have the results, I hope you feel better about my contributions.
