Ultramarine does not Play Well with Others. My experience with him has been almost entirely on [Democratic peace theory]]; and may be seen at some length on its [Talk:Democratic peace theory|talk page]]. When I first edited the article, it had an NPOV tag; ; and consideration of the version from which Ultramarine proposed to remove it may show why. It is this:

Ultramarine has written a polemic in favor of one version of DPT, as presented by a certain Prof. Rummel, who has a website. He has shown very little evidence that he knows anything more about DPT than the website has taught him; and it is itself an argument for Rummel's PoV and an advertisement for his books (which it is perfectly entitled to do). Ultramarine is prepared to advance any argument for Rummellism.

Ultramarine edits are persistently PoV. See comments by User:Mel Etitis, User:Michael Hardy, and User:Corax on Talk:Democratic peace theory.

I attempted to add fair and comprehensible statements of the criticisms of Rummellism. Ultramarine reverted them persistently. I requested help from Mediation, and from Mel Etitis as a third party. Mel's comments are here: [] He also asked for an RfC on the edit war, for which I thank him

When Ultramarine does not edit out a criticism of Rummel, he sandwiches it between defences. I attempted to clarify the structure, whereupon Ultramarine accused me of deletions, falsely.(See this diff, for example . Much has been moved around; no massive deletions. Compare Ultramarine's deletions from the criticism section here and its eventual removal. )   I called a survey on the structure. (See [] and [] All the comments disliked his structure (one also disliked mine) but he continues to revert to it.

He has repeatedly removed dispute tags (he once removed an accuracy dispute tag in the same edit in which he alleged factual inaccuracy )
