Polymath

[edit]

He is referenced on the polymath page List_of_people_who_have_been_called_a_"polymath". Where is the source? Also no source on the polymath page. 194.105.120.70 (talk) 13:34, 27 November 2012 (UTC) thinks_polymath_means_more_than_this_no_offense_to_his_achievementsReply

You need to address that on that article's talk page. Insomesia (talk) 18:59, 27 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Article written by its own subject

[edit]

This article was contributed by its own subject: the users Jmetatron, the original article author Jsring, the ip 72.248.4.17 and likely Anar282 are all sock-puppets for Mr. Michaelson, who has used the name "Metatron" in various enterprises and aliases since at least 1999 (e.g., metatronics.net -- registered privately through Dreamhost on January 9th, 1999 -- currently redirects to jaymichaelson.net). All of these users focused exclusively on Michaelson's biography and projects, including JMetatron's editing of the pages for Wasabi software, a precursor to the NetBSD-focused software company Wasabi Systems, of which Michaelson was a founder, Vice-President and General Counsel.

The above-named sock-puppets are wholly responsible for any substantive content on this page; all edits by other users are decidedly minor ones having to do with cleanup and reorganization, with the exception of those edits which decelerate the self-bolstering claims of its subject. The edit history here is unrefutable and self-evident. This article is an advertisement for Michaelson, who wrote his own Wikipedia article (one which bears striking resemblance to his biography, found on http://www.jaymichaelson.net/about.

The article, in my opinion, does not meet Wikipedia standards for notability, neutral point-of-view, and does not include original research. Djw bklyn (talk) 10:32, 6 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Rabbinic Ordination

[edit]

The article repeatedly refers to him as a Rabbi but doesn't mention the origins of his smikhah (rabbinic ordination). Jilevin (talk) 21:17, 4 February 2026 (UTC)Reply
