Mark Kimmet

In order to understand where Raineybt is coming from, it would be helpful if you reviewed our "NPOV" policy, rules about biographies and the bio section of our Manual of Style. I'd encourage you to keep discussing the issue and see if you can both come to a reasonable agreement. However, please avoid making personal comments and try to assume everyone is working for the best. If you cannot reach an agreement after giving discussion a full chance to work, you can ask for an outside opinion. We also have noticeboards revolving around our content rules. In this case, the knowledgeable people at the noticeboards for "NPOV" issues and biographical articles would be best suited to offer an informed opinion. If discussion and outside input fail to resolve the disagreement, informal mediation would be a good next step. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page or send me an email. Be well! Vassyana (talk) 04:29, 15 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mark Kimmitt. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Prince of Canada t | c 03:04, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

MedCab

edit

I will be closing this case as unresolved, as the two of you have returned to edit-warring. If you both want to pursue mediation of this issue, I will welcome your return to the discussion. However, I will only mediate between you if you both completely refrain from editing the article, the talk page, and each other's talk pages as of the datestamp of this message, until mediation is completed.

If you both wish to continue with this, and agree to the above conditions, please return to the mediation case page and sign your username below the identical comment I have made there in the Mediator Notes section with four tildes, and nothing else. Please do not make any comments, simply sign your names to indicate agreement. I'll give you a few days to consider. Until then, please refrain from further edit-warring on the article page.

Mark Kimmitt

Hiya. Fresh came to me saying that he has some concerns about your recent edits to the Mark Kimmitt article. Looking through the recent history, I am concerned about the editing by both of you. I see lots of reverts and almost no discussion on the talkpage. While I don't think it's necessary to open another MedCab case about this, it does seem obvious that the two of you are having some difficulty working together. So I'll present you with three options:

  1. You both hold yourselves to strict 0RR on the page, and hammer out all edits together on the talkpage first in the spirit of openness, collaboration, and willing to give in a little;
  2. We open another long and tedious MedCab to hammer out all issues related to this article once and for all;
  3. I ask admins to topicban the two of you from the article permanently, since apparently you two didn't learn enough the last time around.

In addition, accusations of sockpuppetry and attempted outing are in direct violation of the no personal attacks policy. If you think that Fresh is a sockpuppet, please visit WP:SPI and present your evidence. Otherwise keep your accusations to yourself. Attempts to publicise the possible real-life identity of another editor are strictly forbidden.

It's up to the two of you to come to a resolution, lest you have a resolution imposed by the community. Were I in your shoes, I know which one I'd pick.

I have left a similar message for Fresh.

  • I think it's a fine idea to topicban us both from the article. Raineybt is using the article to promote Kimmitt, and opposes any edits -- whether true or not -- that don't paint Kimmitt in the most positive possible light. Note, for instance, his deletion of a well-sourced edit by another user (not me) linking Kimmitt to the deaths of civilians in Iraq. If you ban us both, then he won't be able to continue suppressing the truth. Gregorywill (talk) 19:13, 31 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
