User:Steth/RfC

In order to remain listed at Wikipedia:Requests for comment, at least two people need to show that they tried to resolve a dispute with this user and have failed. This must involve the same dispute with a single user, not different disputes or multiple users. The persons complaining must provide evidence of their efforts, and each of them must certify it by signing this page with ~~~~. If this does not happen within 48 hours of the creation of this dispute page, which was 21:12, 31 March 2006 (UTC), the page will be deleted. The current date and time is: 01:59, 22 May 2024 (UTC).

Users should only edit one summary or view, other than to endorse.

Statement of the dispute[edit]

This is a summary written by users who dispute this user's conduct. Users signing other sections ("Response" or "Outside views") should not edit the "Statement of the dispute" section.

Continued placement of POV material in Chiropractic article. Mccready has repeatedly inserted his own POV edits into the article Chiropractic.

He has been asked on repeated occassions not to make massive edits and reverts which represent his POV and to discuss any proposed changes on the talk page. He has refused to comply, instead placing unencyclopedic material on the article page to justify his edits.

He has repeatedly engaged in massive reverts, threatening to escalate disputes ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chiropractic&diff=44742354&oldid=44729105 )

In my view user lacks the basic understanding of neutrality. On many occasions, users work together in making similar biased edits which could be viewed as systematic bias.

Comment: Alternative health articles often have considerable discourtesy in the discussions and this one is no exception. I notice that user:Steth's comments include personal attack on McReady. Midgley 13:08, 4 April 2006 (UTC) Users who endorse this summary (sign with ~~~~):

Comment: User:Steth is being very hypocritical here. Of all people, his personal attacks and comments have been very unpleasant and aggressive. A quick look at his edit summaries reveals a very POV agenda. The rest of us (who aren't perfect either) have simply tried to deal with things, while he/she pretends to be some kind of angel and runs for help. He seems to be unable to recognize that he himself has a POV that needs balancing. One shouldn't cast stones when one lives in a glass house. This kind of thing (Rfc) is necessary, but should not be initiated by someone so guilty of doing the same things he accuses others of doing. -- Fyslee 20:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
