Description
SEWilco has made some valuable contributions to parts of wikipedia in the past, but has become pointlessly disruptive recently.
- SEW has a fondness for his "footnote" style of referencing, and has been trying to bludgeon it into a number of articles despite opposition, most notable Kyoto Protocol and global cooling. There is a clear consensus against his style there, yet he continually reverts and seems unable to understand that is style is not liked.
- He has been indulging in a vendetta against me, spamming the 3RR page with spurious complaints, despite being told by numerous admins to stop wasting everyones time. This is linked to the footnotes stuff, and to the climate change dispute.
Evidence of disputed behavior
(Provide diffs. Links to entire articles aren't helpful unless the editor created the entire article. Edit histories also aren't helpful as they change as new edits are performed.)
- SEW has repeatedly inserted his own footnotes system into Kyoto protocol (hist) and Global cooling (hist). Kyoto: e.g. , , despite a clear consensus to the contrary: he has been reverted by me , Vsmith , Nandesuka and Guettarda . He has been advised by SlimVirgin that he is acting against policy . Global cooling: he has been reverted by me, Vsmith , Nandesuka .
- He has gone so far that Nandesuka is considering suggesting on AN/I that he be blocked for disruption
- SEW has been spamming Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/3RR with baseless complaints (, , etc, despite being told by several admins to stop: , , , , etc etc. (Incidentally, I do accept that the very first one - the 2RR on KP - was justified).
- Note that all the parole stuff had previously been raised in the correct forum - Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Admin_enforcement_requested#William_M._Connolley.27s_parole_-_enforcement - and the response was a distinct lack of interest from the arbcomm.
