| Re this edit, with the summary "Clean up, use actual wording since its an opinion piece" What exactly did you "clean up"? Was there a grammar, spelling, or style error? Also, couldn't your summary more civilly and accurately said, "Replacing with quote"? | |||

| :::It's not that I think badly of you, and I've stated the contrary several times. Most recently in the ARE proceeding I made positive mention of you. It's your bullying and editing style that leaves so much to be desired. If this is how you are in the real world, I truly feel sorry for the people in your community. Then again, maybe you're not this way in the real world and Misplaced Pages is your outlet to address your lack of empowerment or self confidence or whatever it is that is driving your overwhelming need to shove a certain POV down the throats of Readers that use the site. I don't dislike you, I pity you. Thinking that you are irrational and do not think things out well is just a consequence of interacting with you, worse yet, I'm not alone. By the way, if "cleanup" was an inappropriate edit summary, it would not be one of the default choices in the drop down menu. Please complain to the Foundation about how it manages its site if you don't like it. --] - Just your ] banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... ] 18:24, 10 July 2014 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Frankly, I feel bullied by your behavior and many of your comments. And the kind of patronizing you do like in the post above - mulling over who I am and what my relationships are like and why I do what I do - is completely uncalled for. Whether you like it or not, ''we are equals'' on Misplaced Pages, and you are no better editor than I. You are not my daddy, my boyfriend, my counselor, my professor, or any of those things. '''You are my colleague;''' keep it on content, not character. | |||
| ::::Also, I agree that "cleanup" is a perfectly acceptable edit summary for edits that clean-up grammar, spelling, style, and so on - not for making sly comments about other editors' contributions. Would you like it if, when I reverted or significantly altered your ''content'' contributions, I left the edit summary "Clean up"? Especially if I did it repeatedly, even after you asked me to stop? ''That'' would be a form of bullying, or baiting. It would not be 5P. ] (]) 18:41, 10 July 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :::::You are the only one that can determine how you feel. No one else is responsible or to blame for that, its a choice that you make. As for your statement "we are equals", I think you meant to say "peers" which would make more sense. I realized long ago that you consider me, as well as any other Editor that does not agree with you, irrelevant and useless. You treat us an obstacle to your efforts. It's one of the clearest indications that you edit with a specific purpose and POV regardless of any statements that you make to the contrary. You can continue to lie to yourself about what your intentions are, but "actions speak louder than words". | |||

- "When trying to justify the addition of criticism, please don't emphasize that it's factual and sourced. That is not the issue. Being factual and sourced is NEVER enough to justify adding anything to an article. Just stick to trying to convince us that's it due. HiLo48 (talk)"
- "Here on Misplaced Pages, it's OK to be an idiot or do something stupid as long as you are willing to take responsibility and own up to it when you are called on it." - Source Unknown
- Just as "ignorance of the law" is no excuse for breaking it, personal ignorance of any subject here on Misplaced Pages is no excuse for deletion, significant change, or general mucking up of ANY article. WP policy not-with-standing, extolling whatever rule that suits an interest under the guise of being an ignorant dolt is never justification for any edit.
- Sadly, I am the author of this article... WikiBigotry

| I just want to say you are doing a great job of taking the workload of working on the lede in the Second Amendment article. Im making quibbles to make improvements that I see, but I do not want you to interpret that as anything other than collaboration - you are doing the tough job of proposing text, and getting shot down by everyone else :). I think the various revisions are noticeably better from revision to revision, and we are narrowing in on something that everyone can agree to. Gaijin42 (talk) 16:59, 14 August 2013 (UTC) |

Remington
Unfortunately my "edit" of the remington NMA article didn't really come across as intended. The system has greatly complicated uploading pictures and somehow, the caption didnt' make it to the article. Basically, the picture shows a 45 colt R&D conversion cylinder group at 12 0'clock and a ball/fffg group to the right both fired one-handed from 25 yards. User:Michael E.

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. Thank you.
Edit Warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Gun politics in the United States. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Hipocrite (talk) 16:03, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
DS notices
Are you seriously disputing that Gun politics in the United States is a "page relating to, gun control?"
Yes or no will be fine. Thanks. Hipocrite (talk) 18:13, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
- Huh? What are you talking about?
I just removed it from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting Talk page, not gun Politics..
- No, and I'm an idiot for not paying attention to which page I was on. Ugh... --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (Talk) 18:26, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Please reply to Lightbreather
I've just removed a 3O request made by him (for no discussion) in regard to this discussion request he made to you. I'd like to encourage you to either respond to him at Talk:National Rifle Association#Deletion 3X now of info from OpenSecrets via Sunlight Foundation and other sources and the following section there, or drop the stick. I'm not saying that I agree or disagree with either of you, but merely continuing to revert without discussion on an article that's under discretionary sanctions isn't going to do either of you any good. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 21:40, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
- Hi TransporterMan, my apologies that you have become involved in the ongoing Lightbreather "drama". She (yes, she's acknowledged this, not that it has any bearing on anything) has a history of demanding discussion for any content or sources that she disagrees with or that she deems crutial for inclusion in an article and worded in a particular manner. At first glance this might seem in keeping with WP community standards, but a lot of things boil down to her wanting content exactly how she wants it and will use (and sometimes abuse) one or several WP procedures to get her way. In other articles she's resorted to using ANI, Arbitration rulings, and other formal procedures that I (and others) have been forced into because of her efforts. Speaking of other articles, if a comment is made about a trend or similar viewpoint across a series of articles is made, she interprets this as a personal attack. Lightbreather is fond of saying "Keep the comments about the content", but won't accept any criticism about them. In fact, since she patrols my Talk page, it wouldn't surprise me if she makes that accusation again in this discussion and asks me to delete or retract what I've said.
- Granted she has learned to pick better sources, but she has an agenda and purpose behind her editing that she's alluded to here and here (that I know of) where she makes statements like, "...my observation is that I am the only "pro-control" editor here..." with regard to gun related articles. Which, by the way, are what she is predominantly focused on. She also accuses me of having Ownership issues with a variety of articles when its she that makes the vast majority of edits to particular articles and is pushing a particular POV under the guise of "providing balance" regardless of the content being WP:UNDUE to anyone else.
- Hence we come to this particular situation. The NRA article was seemingly fine until she decided that it needed "balance", "improvement", or "fixing". But with regard to the NRA article, currently about half of the Talk page are sections that Lightbreather has started, but interestingly few are currently responding to her. I'm speculating, but I think others have learned that its best to just ignore her until she does something fairly egregious and then revert it or deal with it directly. Lately she's using sources (and subsequently other sources that cite those same sources) that are questionable to make highly contentious claims about politicians. This is part of her domination of the article edits in general. Out of the last 500 edits, she has made 261 of them. In the just the last 30 days, 330 edits have been made by 15 distinct authors. In other words, one editor is responsible for nearly 80% of the edits and uses the Talk page to challenge any viewpoint that differs from her own. The numbers speak for themselves.
- I've learned that trying to engage her in civil debate is functionally useless. She gets a viewpoint in her mind and then seemingly it becomes an "all or nothing" issue regarding what content should or should not be in an article. Many others have tried to reason with her as well as give her what I consider excellent advice on how to interact with others as well as conduct herself on Misplaced Pages, but she seems to ignore most of it. I'm not a fan of ANI, so other than spending what I consider an outrageously useless amount of time building a case against her (and I say this based on the shear volume of edits that Lightbreather makes) given how she conducts herself what's the point of responding? --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (Talk) 17:49, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- You're invited to discuss two sentences backed by three sources. The discussion is here: You've written 618 words above with your critique of me. Per the WP:PERSONAL policy: Comment on content, not on the contributor. Please come and discuss the content in question, or leave it alone. Thanks. Lightbreather (talk) 23:37, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- TransporterMan, the above comment from LB was perhaps the most restrained one I've seen, but like I predicted... --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (Talk) 14:59, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

- Ah, I see, you were just being rhetorical and did not have an actual point. You had me wondering. --John (talk) 18:09, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, completely, but fair point and justifiable "wondering" on your part. Sexism on WP is an important topic and definitely worthy of discussion, but whether or not ships should be called "she" or "it" seemed silly in consideration of seemingly more notable matters. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy...
