Users should only edit one summary or view, other than to endorse.

This is a summary written by users who dispute this user's conduct. Users signing other sections ("Response" or "Outside views") should not edit the "Statement of the dispute" section.

Description[edit]

After repeated attempts to maintain WP:NPOV and gain consensus on a couple of arguably biased pieces to be included in the Derek Smart article, and despite warnings that Kerr Avon was reverting unnecessarily and vandalizing the page, Kerr Avon decided to act unilaterally and edit how he saw fit, ignoring all warnings and without regard to WP:BLP and WP:NPOV. He continues to revert and edit war with anyone who attempts to challenge his view on what is neutral and what is right. He doesn't participate in discussion, he merely delivers his edict and proceeds to edit. Per SwatJester's advice, I am bringing this incident to the attention of the admins.

Swatjester's statement[edit]

Uh my advice? I don't recall ever saying to bring an RFC against someone. Only thing I've said is that there is a lot of edit warring going on, on all sides, both pro-inclusion and pro-deletionism. Neither side is acting in good faith. Everyone just needs to calm down. This case is ripe for either mediation or arbitration, because I don't think a lot of the editors here actually understand the rules regarding what are Reliable Sources, BLP and Libelous statements, and NPOV. The sheer number of single purpose accounts and sockpuppetry going on here tells me there is like an organized off-wiki attempt to manipulate this article, though in what direction I'm not entirely sure. Let me be perfectly clear: I neither oppose nor endorse this RFC. I'm just here to say I did not advise it's creation, and I believe this case ripe for arbitration or binding mediation.⇒ SWATJester ^{On Belay!} 02:55, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for misinterpreting your message. Now that I reread it on my talk page (please keep calm and remember that action can be taken against other parties if necessary.) it is mentioned more in passing, and nothing specific is described or recommended. I assumed by reading the advice for resolving disputes that I was going about it by way of seeking the "mildest" form of administrative action. You may be correct in saying that I am going about this the wrong way. I will ask your advice on your talk page. Mael-Num 04:50, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WarhawkSP statement[edit]

Kerr Avon has a habit of not only insulting other editors but also making WP:NPA attacks on editors who do not agree with him. He regularly accuses such editors of being sock puppets, works in concert with other editors (some of whom are now blocked or departed) to trap such editors in 3RR violations. He makes legal threats, continues to harrass editors, had an RFC filed against him by a prominent and respected Wiki editor and his sole purpose (judging by the number of his edits which have been disallowed) on the Derek Smart Wiki is to inject derogatory information and that which clearly violates the stringent WP:BLP rules.

Supreme Commander statement[edit]

Kerr Avon since appearing on this Wiki has solely been involved in not only being uncivil to other editors, but also accusing them of being sock puppets. He has been warned several times to no avail. All he is interested in is injecting derogatory and unsourced material into the Derek Smart Wiki in an attempt to push his pov.

This is probably the only RFC, which is filed by a SPA Mael-Num (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), which is endorsed by the two confirmed SPA's Supreme Cmdr (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and WarHawkSP (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) who have repeatedly been banned and repeatedly been warned for incivility, who have done nothing but contribute to the rampant edit war on the Derek Smart article which has run in to a astonishing 25,000 edits and is currently being arbitrated via arbcom. As such there statements are not even probably worth the time and energy spent refuting there baseless alegations however I will try my best to respond.

WarHawkSP mentions regarding me -: had an RFC filed against him by a prominent and respected Wiki editor.

As anyone can see there was no RFC filed against me as JBKramer had confused me with LordKazan who had a RFC filed against him at that time. JBKramer said -: "Apologies, confused you and Lord Kazzan.". This again shows the reliability of the SPA's concerned.

Regarding the SPA Mael-Num (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) he appears to have vanished from the wiki universe after filing this RFC and contributing to the edit warring on Derek Smart. That i think is good evidence of his credibility. Mael-Num and WarhawkSP, and Supreme_Cmdr are all strongly suspected to be sock puppets of Derek Smart himself.

Regarding the reverts in questions which have caused considereable pain to Mael-num I wish to state that I opened a discussion in the talk page, however it was Mael-num who needlessly reverted all my cited edits claiming violations of [WP:BLP], however he failed to demonstrate under which clause it violates BLP.

As such I wish to restate that this RFC was created by a SPA on blatantly false premises (see swatjesters statement) endorsed by two SPA's, and that I completely deny the allegations.
