 == Misunderstanding? == 

 As part of good relations and good faith can I ask you to you acknowledge that 

 was a misunderstanding on your part? I designed it as a reply to deconstruct a straw man argument, not to imply another was a Nazi. At the time we both escalated the language, I think my attempt of offering an olive branch was also inadequate. I offer it again, wholeheartedly. 

 ===Forum shopping=== 
 I have to disagree with your description of Forum Shopping when I alert most of the Wikiprojects which claim responsibility for the Jupiter mass article, of the continuing forced-merge attempt. 

  
 Serendipodous attempted to force this through before on 18 September, 2008. A couple of days later  reverted him . I can find no discussion of the merge in either article talk pages. 

 Serendipodous again force-merged this on 2 September, 2009 with no discussion on either talk page, Spacepotato reverted him later that day. 

 It wasn't until 3 days after this that he started a discussion on the planet talk page. There was also a merge template placed on the Jupiter mass article page. 

 Spacepotato made it plain that he did not think this was a good idea because of the difficulty it would cause to readers.I made my reasoning plain also, objecting on purely logical grounds of the unlikeness between a unit of measurement and a planet. I would have thought that as an fan of logic you would be right behind this.Serendipodous still wasn't listening. 

 He was damaging the two articles, and all the articles which link to the Jupiter mass article, and by extension the project itself, I think it right and proper that I alerted as wide a portion of the community as I did. 

 I hope this assures you that this was a logical alert - to those Wikiprojects concerned with the unit of measurement article. Or at least assures you that my logic was pure. You may find fault with it, if so please elucidate, I'd be happy to learn something. 

  
 It is plain to an observer that Serendipodous is unable to listen to reason - why else the second attempt at a force-merge? This is a simple description of the fact of the matter.People may not contribute to a talk page if they see a couple of people with irrefutable reasons against a proposal, but it was also apparent that he would try to push this through again, despite reason. It was therefore important that the community know this, and is why I also alerted them to his unreasoning, and appealed for weight of numbers. I am absolutely convinced that he will harm the project again unless he is dissuaded; I have little hope that he can be persuaded. 

 However I have taken cognisance of your well founded point that this could be construed as a personal attack, and as I noticed that I hadn't informed the Wikipedia:WikiProject Measurement, I have informed them with a message leaving out personalities. 

 I am a fan of Star Trek, always have been. As a fan of Vulcan culture, perhaps you can explain the illogicality of his attempted move. I'm sure you agree that it has the same logical flaw as merging kg with ladies high heels. I expect he will listen to you, but only as a matter of authority, I would be most entertained if you attempted
