Howard C. Berkowitz is an editor from Citizendium who has joined the site to engage in long discussion about the site, almost all of his edits to date have been to Talk:Citizendium. He created his account in May 2010, but did not edit until 9 November.
[edit] Flame war
On 15 November 2010, the RationalWiki talk page for the Citizendium article used by Berkowitz and an IP representing one Martin Baldwin-Edwards was used for a bitching contest relating to the blanking of a CZ article[4], wasting the time of RationalWikians and forcing Human to attempt to cool down the conflict.[5]
The attempt failed as the two CZ editors are still personally attacking each other and bitching. It is presumed the only reason they are doing this on RW is because of strong politeness rules on Citizendium against this sort of thing; the conflict provides a look at Citizendium behind the scenes.
