Just pointing out again that "Niwt" is credited as contributing to the article. I can't really find anything they contributed other than moral support.
Have a nice day.

Niwt and Elephants are the same person. Me. Sorry. And Niwt did actually make a lot of the comments in Peer Review anyway.

I tried.
It's okay, I feel the entry is pretty much complete.
If it needs to go thru another round of Peer Review, so be it.
I don't mind as much having your name on it as well
Later,
Null

Yes, it will have to go through Peer Review again, and I will be credited. That's part of the system when an entry is taken over. Do you have a problem with that? You seem rather unhappy. I can leave this entry if you'd rather.
It won't be in Peer Review for a while though, as there's still a lot I've got to do (some of it is still in first person!).

I would appreciate if an admin would take it upon themselves to REMOVE this entry from The Guide, as Niwt did not contribute at all.
I have a separate entry that is identical--entry number A813557. As I wrote every single word and did all the research, I hardly see where someone else should get credited for this by suggesting the entry be "less first person". (In fact, if you'll follow the conversations associated, I stated I didn't have time to devote to it and that as of XXX date it could be flea-marketed. I came back and revised it WELL before the previously listed date, and Niwt still saw fit to "take it", add his name and never changed a single thing.
The simple fact that entries like this one (which was obviously hijacked) haven't been approved by Peer Review and entered as valid 'Guide entries are the primary reason I've stopped contributing.
I refuse to "play nice" with a community like this. Entries should be judged on the merit of the material they contain, not a "I approved his entry so he should approve mine" popularity contest.
Again, please remove this entry from the guide. Thanks.--Nullmuse

I can't even edit my own entry because of the hijack....absurd, at best.

Hi,
Don't know if you're still here but I don't mind anyway. Sorry this happened. I had a brief look at the threads and as far as I could see, you agreed to let this go to Flea Market/let me finish it. You hadn't posted for months if not longer. I was going to fix it up more than just the first person/advertising stuff, but real life got in the way and although I had intended to, I never got a chance. I had to copy the entry, in order to edit it. It wasn't about claiming credit. That was just the way things worked on the site, once people had been gone for a while, or had agreed to it, other people were allowed to work on their entries.
Anyway, it's gone now and I don't care any more.
