Attempting dispute resolution with editor who is not responding

There is an editor making edits to the Miniso article which I believe violates WP:NPOV. I have listed the reasons why on the article's talk page, and left multiple invitations on the editor's talk page asking to please engage in a discussion. I have never encountered an editor who ignores repeated requests to engage in discussion. I'm not sure what the next step should be, and I'm asking here for help. Thanks, --haha169 (talk) 17:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I gave him a block for edit warring. He was given enough notices that he should have figured it out. Hopefully this gets his attention. Someguy1221 (talk) 18:39, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Logo Update

Hello! I am looking to update our company logo to our current one, however, I do not have a confirmed account. Is anyone able to assist with this? For some reason when I try to upload the logo in this thread, it says there's an error. Any idea as to successfully upload it to this thread? I've included a link to our company page below. Thanks so much !

can an editor who requests an RfC also close it?

If an editor starts an RfC, can that same editor close it, per WP:RFCEND? I have gotten some puzzling pushback (see 3 June activity). -- Oa01 (talk) 12:55, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's ambiguous. If discussion has begun and other editors have weighed in, an attempt by the filing editor to withdraw it usually is okay with the other editors, but since nothing here is "owned" by any one editor, an editor who wants to keep the RFC going could certainly take it over from the filing editor. The filing editor could strikeout his original request or post a notice that s/he's no longer going to participate, but just based on how this place works, I don't think that there's an absolute right withdraw or close it. That's just my opinion, however. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 16:29, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Oa01: How is the second RFC you started materially different from this first one? --NeilN talk to me 16:38, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@NeilN: The first RfC was about image licensing; the second is about choice of imagery. -- Oa01 (talk) 22:31, 6 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that while it may be technically permissible to close one's own RfC, if it has received any level of significant feedback, doing so may be considered "bad form", especially if the opening and closing editor leaves a summary that the participating editors don't feel is a reasonable summation. Stating a desire to withdraw the RfC without formally closing it is probably more advisable. DonIago (talk) 20:11, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Doniago, NeilN, and TransporterMan: Thanks. -- Oa01 (talk) 11:47, 9 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

White House Scandals list Missing

Hi You guys had a list on wikki White House Scandals list. It showed all the Scandals for each administration. Somebody’s deleted it and put federal scandals instead. It is not as informative or helpful. Can you replace the one that’s missing. Also Wall Street Scandals by Administration or and years. Thanks some right winger probably buried the information.

I can find no sign of a White House Scandals list. There is no relevant deleted page with "White House" in the title. We currently have List of federal political scandals in the United States. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:27, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I recently read Kaihan Krippendorff's book and think he should have a page.
