Politically Motivated Deletion

I recently had an entire edit that included cited sources and links deleted. I suspect it was politically oriented as any perceived biased language could have been edited out while maintaining the integrity of the factual information that was added. I need to request a review of the admin activity of account drmies[1]. He appears to be a political operative and has deleted tens of thousands of edits and has blocked tens of thousands of users. How do I request a review? FactZheker (talk) 23:57, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Drmies is anything but a Trump supporter. He's been here 13 years and has almost 300,000 edits, a lot of us who have been here that long have deleted tens of thousands of edits. I'm not sure how you know how many people he's blocked, but I may have blocked that many. I find quite a few vandals every day, occasionally I find a group of sockpuppets and my total for that day will be higher. It all adds up to large numbers. I don't want to see you blocked, I want to see you learn to work with others and accept that there's a big learning curve here and you're editing in a very contentious area.

User:Doug Weller Thank you for your response. All of the actions an admin has taken are available on their pages. The edits I shared had reliable sources with fact based, not opinion based, information including press releases by the individual who's page I was editing. Maybe he was upset over the amount of additional information, but to blanket delete everything is extremely suspicious to me or anyone maybe not as familiar with the variable and subjective oversight of the admins. It amounts to vandalism and censorship to do that. I still feel that drmies had ulterior motives with his mass deletion. FactZheker (talk) 20:13, 15 January 2021 (UTC)FactZheker[reply]
