Ellipses are used to denote a gap between sentences that typically come from the SAME PERSON, or the SAME paragraph.
In your case, the two quotes were separated by 7 different paragraphs, and 5 different quotes from 5 separate sources. That's like using an ellipse to string together a quote from chaper 1 of a book and chapter 8 of a DIFFERENT book by a DIFFERENT author.
Nonsense:
1) Had you ever bothered to click on the link in the first place, you would not have made your accusations;
2) Regarding the distance bridged by the ellipses, you yourself noted there is only half a page between them.
Please keep in mind:
The retraction I seek of you is for your own good, not mine (though I am losing hope, as already having acknowledged one mistake, you followed it with no apology, despite the moderately serious ad hominem of dishonesty).
I can assure you of this:
Had I in my zeal (like you) made a mistaken accusation of deliberate dishonesty, in a hasty desire to trip up an opponent, suddenly discovered my accusations to be false, I would retract and immediately apologize (as in fact all know me to have done on occasion, though I have never had to do so for wrongly alleging deliberate dishonesty).
Not to do so implies a deliberate disregard for truth and justice.
