Questions:
Have you read the AMA FAQ?
- Answer:Yes I have
How would you describe the nature of this dispute? (policy violation, content dispute, personal attack, other)
- Answer: It is complex:
- I have aquantaince-level knowledge of the person in real life (we have never formally met, but we have a common background, and know who each other are)
- We share common interests, and edit the same articles. His edits tend to be autobiographical, unreferenced, and non neutral. I have tried to
- incorporate his edits where possible by referencing them and making them NPOV.
- be helpful by refering him to relevent wikipedia policies and guidelines for the express purpose of helping him become a better editor
- If I have to remove his edits as being entirely unrescuable, I have done so only with copious explanations, and again referals to relevant wikipedia policies.
- All of my comments have been civil and with in a helpful tone. To this point, I have tried to assume good faith on his part, and continue to try to be helpful rather than correcting in my tone.
- He seems to show little interest in becoming a better editor, as he has refused to desist from the kind of edits we are in conflict about.
- He makes very incivil comments in edit summaries, takes ownership of articles, and borders on insults.
- He has made comments on his main user page that I can only construe as being insulting directly to me (in particular, he has a comment that says he would rather be castrated than be a stay at home parent; I mention that I am a stay at home parent on my main user page.
- Lastly, he has vandalised my user page, which was the "last straw" that led me here (see:, .
- P.S., while I was writing this up, additional incivil behavior came to my attention: He posted this at my talk page: .
What methods of Dispute Resolution have you tried so far? If you can, please provide wikilinks so that the Advocate looking over this case can see what you have done.
- Answer: To this point, I have handled it only at the talk page level (see links above), mainly on the his user talk page, my user talk page, and the talk pages of Talk:Alvirne High School and Talk:Granite State Challenge. I would not have been interested in carrying this further, if he had not vandalised my user page.
What do you expect to get from Advocacy?
- Answer:Right now, I only need private consultation. I have never been party to a conflict of this nature before, and up until an hour ago (when my user page was vandalised) I thought I would not need further dispute resolution. Still, at this point I only want someone to review the conflict at hand, and give me advice on how to proceed. I may in the future (but do not now) wish further action UNTILL I have received advice from an advocate.
Summary:
The summary for this dispute is laid out above. To be more concise:
- An editor, whom I have a connection to in real life, makes non-neutral, autobiographical, or unreferenced edits
- I have tried to correct these problems, and be helpful to the editor, with an eye on helping him become a better editor
- He has become progressively more incivil as time has gone on, to the point that now he is openly vandalising my userpage.
- To date, I only want consultation with an advocate, and am not interested in taking any further action pending the advice of said advocate. If an advocate could view the pages I reference above, and give their honest opinion of how I should handle this, I would be most appreciative.
Discussion:
Hi. I have read your statement and think that this is a very complex matter. I would like to know how you are related in real life. For the time been, I think you should just not edit the involved articles as per step 2 in WP:DR. -- Nathannoblet 00:48, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
