Ecograf, mixing numbers once again
User Ecograf continues to mix numbers of losses detailed in the Article Sources, he uses numbers cited in R.S from Pro-Hadi Officials as something Reliable and Official. Its the second time he do this in this tipe of articles. He takes a Biased POV claim from a RS as RS. Worst of all he dont report them he uses it outright as a Reliable Source. Even worse he sums and deduct numbers from different actors of the same source. Falling in Original Research.Mr.User200 (talk) 18:45, 27 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I already told you in the edit summaries and at your talk page. Your combined total was incorrect. You wrote 64 killed per pro-Hadi sources. The two sources indeed talk about 35 dead and 29 dead respectively, however, the first figure (35) is for dead on BOTH sides, not just for the Houthis. As for the second figure (29) it is claimed by officials...at no point is it stated they are pro-Hadi officials. You can not simply assume they are pro-Hadi officials because that would indeed be OR. And accusing me of having a bias POV and conducting OR is not in line with wiki policy on assuming good faith from other editors and on wiki policy on civility. Since you mixed up a combined death toll (35) and a Houthi death toll (29) and said it was only Houthi dead I could have said you yourself conducted a biased OR edit but I did not, instead I assumed you made a legitimate mistake and did not attack you. As for my personal reliability as an editor, that you attacked and I found offensive, you can ask dozens of editors that I worked with over the years just how much reliable I am.
