Questions:
Have you read the AMA FAQ?
 * Answer: Yes

'''How would you describe the nature of this dispute? (policy violation, content dispute, personal attack, other)'''
 * Answer: Content dispute

'''What methods of Dispute Resolution have you tried so far? If you can, please provide wikilinks so that the Advocate looking over this case can see what you have done.'''
 * Answer: I have tried to resolve it on his talk page. I have also made a post about it in the Bo Schembechler talk page. To no avail. User_talk:64.65.160.35 Talk:Bo_Schembechler

What do you expect to get from Advocacy?
 * Answer: I would like help with dealing with this anon user. I am positive that my edit is indeed because of NPOV and he/she keeps changing it back for no reason and I would like it to stop since I am committed to making Wikipedia as good as it can be, and I feel this person is hindering that. He/she does not even have a username. Needless to say, I am pretty upset.

Summary:
Anon user with IP 64.65.160.35 has made many edits to the Bo Schembechler page and most have been beneficial. I noticed that one line read that Bo Schembechler "addresed his beloved and mighty wolverines one last time." I changed it to "addressed his beloved wolverines one last time." I did this per Wikipedia's NPOV policy. Calling the wolverines mighty is a non-neutral point of view and an opinion, which does not belong in an encyclopedic article. Since I made this simple change, the Anon user has repeatedly changed it back and has not talked to me about it, simply changes it. In the most recent change, he/she even put "mighty" before "beloved"
