Wife/widow
Active edit war without discussion:
 * Is Roberta McCain the wife or widow of John S. McCain, Jr?
 * I contend that she "was" the wife. Since she is now deceased we use past tense. A widow is a woman who outlives her husband. I think a strong connotation of "widow" is "living" since that is part of the definition. It is not incorrect to say that she "was" the widow, but it is more accurate and kinder, after all, to call her the wife, because that is true and correct.

 * Exactly. See also Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis for example. Don't understand what the IP's obsession is. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 23:47, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * The speed with which they're reverting makes me think this is probably a logged-out user who has this article on their watchlist. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 23:49, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , the speed at which they are reverting is a direct correlation to the speed at which they are reverted. Since this is a content dispute, we do not have any exemption from the WP:3RR and may be blocked for edit-warring. I would advise opening a sockpuppet investigation instead.

 * I agree with ELizium23's logic. -- Zim Zala Bim talk 00:36, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
