• hakozen – keeps changing the article on the Huns to claim they were Turkic, even though we've worked hard to make this page show all sides of the issue; the exact ethnic identity of the Huns is disputed, and we want the page to reflect that. Nonetheless, Hakozen keeps changing all NPOV mentions of "uncertain" etc. to "Turkic" and no longer participates on the Talk page. After I contacted him on his user page, he claimed I and the other level-headed editors were anti-Turk racists serving Greek and Armenian masters. CRCulver 01:58, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
• FourthAve Many violations of WP:NPA He has received three formal warnings, several informal warnings but continues to attack. Edits include obscenity and vandalism. Revision by other editors of vandalism and POV posts are met with bad-faith accusations.

• 205.240.227.15 Repeated pov vandal. Has been blocked several times. Problems ranging from WP:NPOV to WP:3RR. Athough there has been problems with personal attacks, they are not (so far) part of this RFC, simply due to the shear amount of article-related problems.--Colle|File:Locatecolle.gif|Talk-- 00:36, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
• Mr j galt – - Problems with WP:NPOV, WP:POINT, WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, WP:NOR, and gaming of WP:3RR, etc. After conducting a multi-front revert war on the Plame affair, Larry Johnson (political commentator), and Valerie Plame articles that drove all three into protection, the user then extended his attempt to about a dozen articles related to the Plame matter, repeating the very same kinds of edits in order to cast erroneous doubt on the established facts of the case. Any editor challenging him is inevitably accused by Mr j galt of whatever it is he himself has been accused, in a classic Troll style. 22:25, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

To list a dispute, create a subpage using the following sample as a template:

• Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Example admin - Allegations: {one or two short sentences giving the dry facts} ~~~~~
