Request for intervention on edit warring
I have received your request to block User:MCSKY for edit-warring at Lot (Bible) and Sodom and Gomorrah. I do not think blocking would be a good way of dealing with this dispute, and in any case if I were to impose blocks then I would block both of you, as you have both been equally involved in edit warring. My own view is still, as I have indicated before, that the best solution would be for both of you to leave these articles and move on. Although I have my own view on the inclusion or exclusion of the image, I do not think it matters enough to be worth spending the time and effort on. However, since it is clear that neither of you is willing to leave the issue, since the dispute has not been resolved by discussion, and since my help has been repeatedly requested, I feel I should make a further effort. I considered filing a report at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring. However, I think the result would almost certainly be another administrator blocking you both, which would be no better than me blocking you both. I looked at Dispute resolution, but since discussion at Talk:Lot (Bible) has failed to resolve the issue it seems unlikely that any of the informal methods suggested there will be any more successful. As for the more formal processes, they would, I think, be gross overkill in this case. The conclusion I have reached, after considering all these issues, is as follows. I am now asking both of you to leave Lot (Bible) and Sodom and Gomorrah and make no edits to either of them. This is only a request, but if either or both of you are not willing to agree to it I will consider filing a report at Administrators' noticeboard, suggesting that either or both of you be banned from editing these articles. I think this would be less harmful than a block, which would also prevent you from editing elsewhere in Wikipedia. (I am also not ruling out the possibility of a block, but I regard that as rather a last resort, and I really hope it won't come to that.)

I would be grateful if you would indicate below this message whether or not you accept this request. If you have any other comments or questions about this you are, of course, welcome to post those too. If you do so here it will help if you also put ~ on my talk page so that I am alerted to you message. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:00, 6 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, please have a look here: at a possible new section which I hope allows the paintings to be in the article, in an encyclopedic form, but not overly prominent.  Comments on the Article talk page please.    Regards,  Springnuts (talk) 21:20, 6 August 2010 (UTC)


 * After some discussion I have had a go at a gallery. Regards,  Springnuts (talk) 12:35, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

About Lot's images
Thanks - yvw :) Springnuts (talk) 21:08, 8 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Nice collection of images thank you. I have played about with them to put in chronological order, though I am sure an expert could do more with them.  Also just tweaked the one in the body of the text to match the ones above and below it - hope you don't mind this.  Did the topic go out of fashion - hence no later paintings?  Regards,  Springnuts (talk) 21:50, 8 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, I hope you won't mind but I have reduced the second gallery by three to leave it at two rows - it is visually better that way I think. In the long run an article on Lot (Bible) in Art would be a place for a full selection.  Regards, Springnuts (talk) 07:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
