937:, added material I discussed on the talk page with PLENTY of time for objections (none were coming) tried to discuss it with the other party which was at the same time was doing only two things: reverting everything and running to an admin who promised before he will sort it out 'in house' to maintain the so-called neutral POV. I am not denying at the same time at all that have made many, many mistakes in the past, most of them when I was new to Wiki, but its a bit cheap to point fingers to that direction all the time, while my actual edit is not discussed at all. I am struggling to find a reason why I get an indef block for an 1RR, completely in line with BRD, which is what Atama seems to suggest ('to avoid edit wars,perhaps a voluntary 1RR'), and which is EXACTLY what I was doing beforehand. Anyone is welcome to compare my editorial behavior with that of Dapi89 on any of these articles, and I am not sure I am the one doing worse when it comes to cooperation. 941:
found via discussion. Avoiding him - why not_ I have been avoiding him already, partly because his interest seems to have shifted to actually shifted from to actually making good contributions the ground battle articles, partly because I had to realize that in certain periods (usually occuring when someone has another POV) no editor can reason with him, because his tendency to take everything personal, and its probably for the best to avoid him and let him keep to himself. Assuming Good Faith is going to be a tough one, and will require considerable efforts from both parties. There has been some good examples of this, for example it has been possible to work together on the

without saying that against such defamation it is not possible one to defend itself, nor does it seem neccessary, as we all aware of the weight of charges without evidence, claimed by involved parties, ie. Minorhistorian, Dapi89 or Gregolock (the latter of whom I had very little interaction, apart from receiving a threatening message from him, addressed to "Kiddo" whoever that is, about being sorted out for "special attention").
1044: 885:'decide the matter' in place of the former text that was pretty neutral and was representing both views as per Wiki's NPOV. Whether reverting was a good choice or not is open to question, though I still think I had a valid reason for it and wanted to discuss it - after all, this is how tenthousends of Wiki articles are formed from day to day. Moreover I think my approach was correct, following BRD strictly. 656: 928:
Perhaps I need a mentor indeed - I would glady accept PBS, Bzuk, Atama or any other administrator with the exception of Eyeserene, as such and ask for their opinion before potentially contested edits. It was certaily not my intention to be disruptive, I've simply seen some ways to improve an article,
920:
So, perhaps, I am very dumb but I'd really like to understand what am I doing wrong here, and I wonder if there would be any lingering doubts about Eyeserene's decision to hand out an indef block for an 1RR, valid or not, if I had followed the example and editing style set by some of the more 'model
880:
Naturally this isn't an excuse for my own behaviour, but I find it important to add some shades and details to the black and white painting presented by Eyeserene, where supposedly model editors are being harassed around by others and where every conflict is with a single editor. These circumstances
841:
While I concur that there is certainly truth in that I need to adjust my editoral practice to Wiki, and there has been valuable advices for that by Bzuk, Atama and PBS, I also believe that Eyeserene provided a distorted picture, a clash between 'good' and 'evil', while the stable elements that keeps

Personally I think that avoiding each other and stepping on each others toes would work out, so I would suggest that we mutually agree not reverts each other at all in the articles we edit - a voluntary 0RR mutually applying to both parties. This IMHO would certainly ensure that resolution would be
884:
It is time to address my own editorial behaviour. The indef block under question was issued by Eyeserene for an 1RR in the Battle of France article. Dapi89 there made a bold edit, which I don't consider a particularl improvement, as it only seems to insert negative arguements into the article, and
837:
I will try to make it short, as I have other important committments, but since there are plenty of questions raised that needs to be answered, it will be somewhat lenghty. There have been a lot of vague accusations put forward by both Eyeserene and Dapi89; without any specifics of evidence. It goes

agree with you that your account should be unblocked and I strongly suggest that you do not try to justify you previous behaviour or criticises other editors (as you did in your last posting). As I have been involved in the ANI now that it is closed, if you do put in an unblock request, I will not
846:
because of a POV he represented by accusing them of 'disruptive editing' and threatening them with blocking, while all incivility of the proper-POV editors is explained and excused by their 'frustration', I am not convinced that "BUT" is a major element, rather than something very flexible.
769:
I didn't "arrange" anything; it's exactly that sort of unfounded and pointless assumption that has landed you with this block. However, if you have a response to make you can post it here and someone (me, if no-one else, though I'm going offline very soon) will copy it across to ANI.
900:
I don't think there were a serious problem with these edits of mine, nor the conduct - I followed the BRD cycle closely, and voluntarily refrained from reverting at all, despite the fact that Dapi89's attitude towards me has been a tad bit on the combative side to put it mildly. See

pointed out the problems I saw with the edit in the commentary, and asked to be discussed on the talk page. Dapi89 reverted that with a personal attack, refused to discuss the matter, and instead went block shopping to Eyeserene. Ever since Dapi89 also got him inself
810:
Thank you for the notice PBS. I am rather busy with my life, so I did not have time yet to respond to the accusation, but I believe they are a rather black and white view on the issue. I will respond to it soon, preferably tonight, or by tomorrow morning the latest.

Thanks for spotting the interwiki bot error (I wondered myself on this), problem seemed to be a wrong interwiki of the hungarian Scharnhorst class article (interwikied to Scharnhorst ship articles), should now be fixed manually by checking all class/ship interwikis.

Since you arranged it so that the other party - me - have no possibility to respond to your accusations, and put forward its position and shed some light on aspects sorely missing from your description, what is the point of you posting this notification here?
587:. When an edit is reverted with the edit summary of "please discuss" or something equivalent, just reverting back is clearly disruptive and against policy. You should know better and engage in discussion regardless of if the editor is a sock/meatpuppet. 987:
