I know the Loyola Law School dispute is proving troublesome, but let's try to keep the edit summaries in good faith, eh? [1] Only makes it harder to deal with otherwise. Adrian M. H. 23:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, my response:

RESPONSE BY EDITORESQUIRE:

This user, and others, is part of a cadre of people (perhaps even the same person under different user names) trying to use the Loyola Law School wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loyola_Law_School) to denigrate the school -- founded on the same biased motives that wiki editors already rejected months ago in third party resolution.

This dispute has been months in the making, dating from at least June 2007, when editors sought to include biased and non-encyclopedic references to "Loyola 2L" in the Loyola Law School wiki page. I submitted a request for third party review, all of which is in the Discussion page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Loyola_Law_School).

Loyola 2L references were found in violation of wiki standards for several reasons, all of which are detailed in my description and wiki editor comments in the Discussion page.

Now, people who apparently went to a competiting law school and are seeking to denigrate Loyola to bolster their own alma matter, are trying to re-insert the same line of discussion in the Loyola Law School wiki page. This time, it is the school's dean, being mischaracterized and quoted out of context for a subjective purpose (like in a legal brief), commenting on the Loyola 2L dispute which wiki already determined was in violation of its rules.

This reference has no place on wiki. It is not encyclopedic, not informative, out of context, cannot be presented subjectively, is the dean reacting to the attacks that wiki editors ruled were prohibited by wiki standards in the first place, and is clearly inserted for the purpose of denigrating the school.

Brickexistab's reporting of me is intended to stop me from policing the wiki page from his/her subjective and violative content.

And contrary to his/her assertion, which is out of context, I attempted to amicably resolve this with him/her by compromising on the content - which is clearly stated in the history page (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Loyola_Law_School&action=history). I stated: "the moment in the interest of resolving this edit war -- The reference to the dean is biased and I deleted. I kept the comparative statistics, but will agree to disagre for the moment" (from 18:11, 1 October 2007).

I should add that this is one of a number of attacks by users with a motive to hurt the school, by using the wiki page as airspace. For instance, in the discusion page, there is a dispute raised by a user Coolcaesar that the school is not "in" downtown. That dispute was really petty, and I suggested he/she write "near" or "adjacent to" downtown if he/she really believed it was an issue. The user never did that, but did chastize me for not looking at his/her user page which showed that he/she was a graduate of a law school with a higher bar pass rate than Loyola Law School.

I implore the wiki administrators community for help and guidance.

Thank you. EditorEsquire.

Blocked

[edit]

24 hours. Admins have no locus in resolving content disputes and your absence on the talk page while this was being discussed was noticeable. When this block expires please discuss disputes or seek dispute resolution but don't disrupt wikipedia by revert warring. Spartaz Humbug! 18:55, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
