G'day. If you have got something to say, pull up a pew and say it (but please be civil).

Informal portrait of the editor as a young man

Your comment at WP:FRAM

I'm getting in late here, but I just want to note that I agree completely with your comment at WP:FRAM#Safe spaces, etc. One of the main problems is that lots of admins are willing to overlook or excuse away gross incivility which I think its safe to assume would not be tolerated in their workplace/place of education, and which they would not tolerate if it was expressed in person at one of their friends. An upshot of the Fram mess is that I'm not going to let instances of this go past me any more. Nick-D (talk) 08:06, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

I'm the first to admit I have not always been a paragon of civility on here, especially in my early days dealing with Yugoslav POV-pushers, but I agree that the admin corps in general needs to be less accepting of poor behaviour, regardless of who it is that is being uncivil. Especially admins quickly unblocking editors who have been blocked for incivility. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:46, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Edit warring on Greens (Montenegro)

Hey, thanks for your input. However, the issue area that I am usually dealing with here (Balkan and especially Montenegrin history and politics) is highly contentious and a fertile breeding area for hot-headed editors, such as the anonymous editor that I have reported, and unfortunately a number of established users. As you have noted, I am an experienced editor, and know how things work around here, but it is sometimes difficult to assume good faith when the opposite is blatantly obvious. Therefore I have claimed the edits to be vandalism, since there was absolutely no intent to improve the content, but only to disguise cherry-picked opinions as facts - therefore to vandalise the article in a sense. And now it stays that way, because I backed away from an edit war with an anonymous IP which has a total of nine edits. I strive to improve the content on the issues I am interested in, and the state of a number of Montenegro-related articles is absolutely atrocious as they are heavily biased, so I will continue to make an effort, as limited as time allows me, to continue introducing some objectivity and NPOV, whether anyone likes it or not. Have a good day. Sideshow Bob 11:46, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
