This article was nominated for merging with Achim Heukemes on 20 May 2011. The result of the discussion was to merge the article as proposed. No objections were received..

Merger proposal

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

There was no discussion on merging the article on Achim Heukemes within the List of people who have run across Australia article after a considerable period of having been open to discussion. As such, the merger has taken place. Bezza84 (talk) 16:26, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that Achim Heukemes be merged into List of people who have run across Australia. The original article is a stub which contains duplicate information that has been listed within this article. Bezza84 (talk) 10:45, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

All of your recent malicious edits have been reverted.

I am going to say this one more time. The content written about Robert Garside is not libel, defamation, slander, or anything else you want to call it. The text has been drawn from two very reliable sources - Sports Illustrated (a division of CNN), and Reuters. I am sure that I will find more which will say the exact same thing if I looked, but I'm satisfied that the content is accurate. I'm also not going to waste any more of my time to further reinforce the validity of the content only for you to completely disregard it.

After your first objection on my first page List of people who have walked across Australia, I went to the effort to find an additional reference to verify the content. I rephrased what two professional journalists had written to make the content less confrontational, and even created this new page in light of your previous objection to the article including runners because the title do not extend to include runners. Despite my having said that the article listed runners as well, and having taken extra steps to illustrate this point, you continued to object. The fact that you focussed solely upon Robert Garside and ignored the several other runners in the list, simply reinforces your agenda to try disclose the fact that Robert Garside was accused of cheating. I have nothing but respect for people like Robert (thus the creation of the article), and he was officially awarded the World Record - so WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?!?! I have been VERY accommodating of your constant unjustified objections, but this has to stop. Your MALICIOUS deletion of content on a Wikipedia article is NOT going to change what Robert did (or did not do).

ANY further modifications to this content from you will be marked as VANDALISM, and a violation of the WP:3RR policy. Violations of this policy carry a BAN from Wikipedia after the fourth incident (you have interfered three times now). Your activities have been reported to an administrator for follow up. Feel free to make a VALUED contribution instead of constantly undermining the efforts of others on this site. Cheers.

PROPAGANDA

Your above statements are false and I stand by all my edits otherwise I would not have made them. Simply, I don't agree with you and you do not like it.

FACT:

Robert Garside is known as "The Runningman"

Here are a (news story) references that support this and that is what you are trying to airbrush off the Internet. How can publishing the links of news stories written by media outlets such as CNN, Reuters, AP, Press Association, be vandalism?
