Statement of the dispute
This is a summary written by users who dispute this user's conduct.


 * Description: User K1 is a clearly very well informed contributer, with strong views on all kinds of matters relating to Iran, both historical and current. Over the last few weeks though he has engaged in a number of disputes over several pages with different users, all resulting in him using obscene and abusive language towards other users who ask him for evidence or disagree with him. The current worst example is Talk:William C. Rogers III. Attempts to resolve matters (same talk page) by bringing the debate back to the matter of debate did not help, but resulted in further abuse.

Further he used repeated uncommented reverts to delete dispute notices on William C. Rogers III.

 * I agree with Refdoc. K1 has repeatedly used vulgar and crude language to mount personal attacks against good-intentioned contributors.  He has forced narrow minded opinion onto countless pages, at some times deleting up to half the page.  He insults people, and then denies it, even when his comments are still on the page.  He is out of order in doing this.  If someone attempts to ask him to tone himself down, he becomes even more antagonistic.--naryathegreat 14:18, Jul 16, 2004 (UTC)
