Edit: I clicked the wrong "talk" link, will repost in the correct talk page for the relevant desired capitalization issue.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Charles C. Johnson, you may be blocked from editing.  Hun ter  22:53, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
 * If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
 * This is a very flimsy accusation of "disruptive editing". The disruptive editing page itself defines "disruptive editing" as "a pattern of editing that may extend over a long time on many articles, and disrupts progress toward improving an article", which is clearly not referring to a single, one-sentence edit, as that represents neither a pattern nor a long time period. I removed a biased phrase from the paragraph in question: "since-debunked assertion", one that is directly refuted by the contents of the very Wikipedia page, IRS targeting controversy, linked immediately prior. The original author of that sentence then used opinion pieces, one from a quite partisan website, to support his sentence, despite the dozens of more-reliable links on the actual IRS scandal page that refutes the original author's phrasing. I deleted the entire sentence, rather than re-phrase it, as the method of Johnson's assertion may have been debunked despite the overarching premise remaining valid (having not read his book I cannot speak to this). There are 174 citations on the IRS Controversy page, dozens of which affirm the fact that the IRS did in fact "target conservative and right-leaning groups", although some left-leaning groups were also targeted. I will make a more complete edit shortly, one which rephrases the sentence to include the finding that the IRS targeted groups on both sides of the political spectrum, to include citations from the main IRS scandal page. 84.255.186.249 (talk) 04:21, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
