Nico continues to revert Erika Steinbach and will not compromise. I am adopting this poll because Tannin involved himself by reverting Erika Steinbach. I have no special opinion in the matter but I want this quickpoll to have its due process. silsor 08:24, Apr 10, 2004 (UTC)

1. A 24 hour ban is nowhere near enough to deter this user, who is utterly determined to trample over any and all others Wikipedians in order to get his way. Unfortunately, 24 hours is all that a Quickpoll can deliver, so it will have to do as an interim measure. More and firmer action is essential. Tannin 08:03, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)

1. I have not broken the three-revert-rule, so this poll is not qualified and may be deleted. I certainly will compromise; my latest version is roughly based on the proposal by Kpalion. The problem is that more extreme Polish users just want to inserting their POV. If a city then in Germany should be called "Nazi occupied Poland", we also have to refer to Wroclaw as "Breslau, stalinist-occupied Germany". Neither of those is NPOV. Wikipedia shall not take sides.

• User:Nico continues to trample over community consessus in Erika Steinbach, despite having been listed here and warned before. User Nico has behaved with complete contempt for community norms and processes. Earlier he reverted the article 5 times in a day. Now he continues to revert as often as possible, and has taken to dishonestly marking his reverts as "minor" in order to try to hide them from other editors. In the last month, User Nico has edited this tiny 200-word article an astonishing 50 times, nearly all of those edits being nothing but reverts against dozens of other editors. The page has had to be protected several times, but every time the protection is removed, User Nico goes straight back on the rampage. He is in conflict with almost all other editors to the page. I am not personally involved in the dispute, but have taken on a watching brief to try to help the community deal with this problem user and his mindless reverts. Tannin 08:03, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)
