The anon ip that adds unsourced material and doesn't respond to talk page postings

Hi, I was wondering if someone could advise me. An anonymous ip, 82.35.64.69 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) keeps adding unsourced random pieces of information to articles about years in British television, often without fully explaining their significance. An example might be "Gray O'Brien is to leave Coronation Street later this year", which doesn't fully explain who he is or why we need to know he's leaving the series. I've been taking the time to track down sources for this stuff and discovered sometimes that it's inaccurate so have been making corrections, but it's been going on for a while now, and is getting a bit monotonous. I've asked very nicely on several occasions if they could provide sources for the entries as they're obviously finding it from somewhere, but never get a response other than to see the appearance of another random entry later the same day or the next day. I've resorted to issuing user warnings for unsourced editing after several attempts to communicate with this user, and deleting the material. Am I doing the right thing? I don't want to get into a slow edit war with them. Thanks. This is Paul (talk) 17:21, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- WP:BURDEN says that the poster must have a source for the content; otherwise, it may be deleted. Unfortunately, I would take the route of user warnings for unsourced content, even if the edits may appear to be in good faith. Repeatedly adding unsourced content without discussing anything on talk pages is criteria for blocking. This is just my opinion, as a non-admin. Thanks Piguy101 (talk) 21:20, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for getting back to me. I'm sure the edits are being done in good faith, which is why I was helping, but if the guy won't learn how to edit properly then I guess there's no other course of action. Thanks again, This is Paul (talk) 23:09, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
