Statement of the dispute
Since the beginning of July, User:Doncram has been stalking me. Of the 35 edits in July he made on on Template talk:Did you know, only six did not involve me, and almost every one was him trying to disqualify one of my articles, which he did not do to anyone else. (As we are talking 29 instance, I am not now linking to each one, but will if need be). He was pointy in trying to get an article of mine deleted, at Articles for deletion/Montana in the American Civil War, making it clear the only reason why was because my name is on it. Similarly, regarding the Idaho equivalent, he post on ACW task force trying to stir sentiment against me, and strongly supported something I'm against regarding the naming of the Idaho in ACW article, when the only ACW articles he deals with are those I work on. Even now he's trying to disqualify many of my articles on TT:DYK, and he does not bother with any other articles. You do not see me trying to hamper any article writing of his, or even fool with anything he's working on, but he does not share this courtesy. I want him forbidden from working or commenting on any of my articles,. It is difficult to want to add anything to WP if I am constantly being bothered like this.

Desired outcome
I wish for Doncram to quit stalking me, This is accomplished by him being forbidden from commenting on any DYK hook I create or nominate. Also, he is not allowed to add anything involving articles in which I am a principle writer.

Description
Doncram needs to learn he can't boss me around and continue to harass me. Unlike him, I wish to be productive on WP, but it is difficult when I have him harassing me.

Evidence of disputed behavior
The various July attacks on me; (only 5 of his edits on DYK in July did not involve me).

 * Slightly different, as he wanted to get involved in an article I ixnayed due to it being non-neutral.

Also, every one he has done since August 14th were to derail one of my nominations, including striking out favorable reviews of my articles, but complains when his are given similar treatment.

Plus, attacks of me on my user page that preceded this

He then filed an AfD for the Montana in the American Civil War article I created, where many saw the only reason is was listed was because I wrote it and Doncram had no reasons to list it other than to attack me. It ended with 11 keeps, with Doncram the only oppsoe(As its done, I'll just post the link to th AfD).

Also, for someone who has no previous interest in the ACW   he sure gets involved when it involves me, only joining the ACW task force  after harassing me on that page and other ACW pages

Not to mention attacking me on WT:DYK

Plus stalking me on a page I tagged for problems, although I hope it does become good as it looks like a nice addition to Wikipedia:
