Talk:2002 Van Wert–Roselms tornado

Copy/Edit requested
I have requested a copy/edit for the article on WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 05:10, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Article dispute
, the article was (1) accepted validly through AfC and (2) is currently requested for a copy/edit. It has a shot at GAN. If you would stop the WP:IDONTLIKEIT mentality of merging it, despite opposition, that would be helpful. I suggested you could AfD it, but you said no. So your merge was challenged and you do not wish to AfD it. You can also request a third-party opinion on the subject if you wish. Also, you did not include any proper copyright attribution in any of your merges. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 05:52, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
 * You used the AFC process to make a WP:POINT by taking a published article and in bad faith moving it to draft space and then submitting it to be republished. The tornado is not worthy of a standalone article when no section at all was included in the outbreak article. This subverts common practice among all tornado outbreak articles and breaks consistency here in an apparent mission to hat collect a GAN. United States Man (talk) 05:55, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Nothing needs to be "consistent". Your entire argument is based on an WP:IDONTLIKEIT ideology. I requested this as a copy/edit as it has a shot at GAN. Per the copy/edit request page, I need to wait until the copy/edit to request the GAN, otherwise I would had already done so. It clearly passes WP:GNG, which was shown in passing AfC. If you do not think it should be an article, AfD it. I reverted you multiple times because the bold merge was challenged (where I suggested AfD), and also copyright violations as your edit summaries did not include attribution links. I was not the only editor to edit the article prior to your bold merge. The merge was challenged, stop merged and AfD if you don't think it should be an article, as I mentioned multiple times.

 * Your entire argument is WP:IDONTLIKEIT that it was merged. United States Man (talk) 06:01, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not sure if you will see this while you are still temporarily blocked, but given this dispute involves only two editors, I requested a third-opinion on our dispute. If a third-opinion editor sees this and has questions, note that the other editor in this dispute is blocked until 30 November and questions for them should be put on hold until after they are unblocked. The third-opinion request was put in since both myself and United States Man were blocked for edit warring and this dispute needs resolved to prevent further edit warring.
