Why? As I asked in the title, Who owns LessWrong? For example: Who pays for the servers?
Roughly speaking, he does. Or whoever does does so essentially at the behest of him or the SIAI. You chose the wrong grounds to challenge him. You would have been better served to target your questioning at how the wiki edit process should be. That is, you want to make Eliezer look like a dick in the eyes of the lesswrong community if he throws his weight around rather than question his practical right to do so if he pleases.
This is not me posting original research. The existing article is offensive in tone, commits several logical errors, and its main conclusion
This is you posting original-to-lesswrong research. The edits that you made are not all commonly accepted by the community and some of the dot points were not even presented as theses in any of your own posts. So yes, that is what I am talking about. I am not commenting in support of the group selection wiki page as it stands. I’m talking about putting new stuff on the wiki.
I am hoping that Phil (or someone else) makes a discussion post directly on the subject where this kind of thing can be discussed. Would you mind if I held off until then? (You could even make the post with your own views if you like!)
Yes, I would mind. I am not asking for debate on whether the bullet points are correct or accepted, but on the simple factual matter of whether they come from his article. I think the claim of “original research” is flat-out false.

Which bullet points are not supported in Phil’s article?

Your disagreement is noted. I invite you to start the relevant discussion thread if you consider it important enough to discuss further.
