Ulster Defence Regiment

Have you discussed this on a talk page?

Yes, I have discussed this issue on a talk page already.

Location of dispute Users involved Dispute overview

I have come across another editor as a result of his work on copyright enforcement. I believe he has become hostile to me as a result of my efforts to make my work comply with copyright and he sees me not as a hard working Wikipedian but as someone who is out to thwart his best efforts. I believe he is now being deliberately disruptive to the wiki by stalking me, making spurious objections regarding an image I have uploaded and threatening to block me. Noting Werieth's opening statement I should add that he was advised of Arbcom sanctions on articles relating to The Troubles by me and a sysop when he engaged in editwarring by breaching the WP:1RR ruling at Ulster Defence Regiment on several occasions.

Have you tried to resolve this previously?

I have discussed the matter at some length with him on several talk and discussion pages. I requested the assistance of sysop User:Cailil.

How do you think we can help?

Impress upon the other editor that everyone's work on Wikipedia is important and that he should be helpful rather than obstructive. Also that he shouldn't allow discussions to become personal or engage in work which is deliberately intended to inconvenience another editor. Above all he should be collegiate in his activities and always discuss actions before taking them.

Opening comments by Werieth
This is just yet another attempt at intimidation in order for SoS to continue to ignore Non-free content policy. They have threatened to take me to Arbcom Enforcement multiple times. Every issue that I have raised is completely valid and is in order to bring articles into compliance with NFC. A lot of editors do not like NFC and try to ignore it, or attack the person enforcing NFC. This is just yet another example of that. Werieth (talk) 13:31, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Discussion
Please do not use this for discussing the dispute prior to a volunteer opening the thread for comments - continue discussing the issues on the article talk page if necessary. I do not see any discussion between these two editors on Talk:Ulster Defence Regiment. I also only see 2 edits in the article history by editor Werieth since the first of the month. If these discussions have happened elsewhere, please provide the information. —    Bill W.     (Talk)  (Contrib)  — 13:59, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
