• Talk:Eamon de Valera - re Eire's refugee policies during WWII, and general military options from WWII, which users Demiurge and Jtdirl insist on imposing their own opinions without sources or citations and neither is qualified as a military historian.

• Falkland Islands Dispute and increasingly edit war over the inclusion of Islas Malvinas in the first line of the article. I would tentatively say that most people have accepted it being there, the remaining question is whether the Malvinas should have some kind of note that it is not the official name, nor the direct translation, something along the lines of commonly known in Spanish speaking countries as..., alternative Spanish name... and others at the talk page.

• Talk:I-95 exit list: There already exist more accurate exit lists on several articles such as Interstate 95 in New Jersey, and thus the page was edited to link to those to avoid a content fork. Several editors are reverting this for no apparent reason. 07:47, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
