Center for Immigration Studies edit

Please take it to the talk page, rather than just removng sourced statements. Doing otherwise could be construed as edit warring and vandalism. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 14:23, 18 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

From where I sit, it's your reverts of my edits that could be construed as edit warring. As I repeatedly explained in my edit summaries, my edits are based on the dictionary - and WP article - definition of the word "nonpartisan." As NPOV as you can get. Ron (talk) 04:04, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Then it should be easy to provide third party sources to back up what you are trying to insert then. I have sourced the article, you are purely trying to remove sourcing. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 05:00, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
I did exactly that, and you removed it. Your sources are not RS and not NPOV.

Ron (talk) 11:32, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Take it to the talk page of the article. Otherwise is edit warring, since you are not discussing anything there. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 16:16, 20 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Brian Bilbray content removal edit

I'm not sure I agree with your content removal on Brian Bilbray. I didn't revert, but I started a conversation on the article's talk page. Can you weigh in there? Arbor8 (talk) 03:00, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Sure, done (BTW, cute cartoon, and so true) Ron (talk) 02:19, 10 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Center for Immigration Studies (July 2013) edit

Per WP:REVEXP, please don't revert good-faith edits without explanation. I'm reviving the discussion over CIS's partisan identifier here. --Nstrauss (talk) 17:26, 1 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

They did not appear to be good-faith edits. For example, you removed "nonpartisan" because it was "contradictory" without identifying what it contradicted, and you made other changes, including removing citations, claiming that you explained the changes on the talk page even though you didn't.

Wong Kim Ark edit

I agree with some of your recent edits to Wong Kim Ark and will probably support them if they are challenged. But did you really intend to remove all of the material that you removed? Please review your edits to make sure. Thanks.Anythingyouwant (talk) 01:31, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Great catch! I have no clue how most of those changes got in my edits. Thanks much!--Quark7 (talk) 20:06, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
