Davidcpearce is trying to edit war me

Davidcpearce has been undoing my revisions on all articles without regard for the content of the revision. I won't undo his undoing because I'd really like to avoid an edit war, but here's some evidence: he removed my internal link to the University of Pennsylvania School of Social Policy and Practice in this article. Absolutely no justification provided in his summaries. I don't think he even reads my edits before he undoes them. Instead he just says to "discuss on the talk page first". If he wants to discuss something on the talk page, he should start a section. Otherwise, there's no requirement to discuss before making an edit. We need external moderation here.Lrieber (talk) 00:14, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

Lrieber, many thanks for the editing work you are putting in. A plea first to discuss mass deletions in multiple articles with other editors isn't an edit war. Also, please bear in mind that setting up a separate user account "Pawg14"‎ for the sole purpose of deleting material with which you disagree for personal reasons is likely to raise eyebrows. --Davidcpearce (talk) 07:53, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

How do you respond to the evidence I presented that you're deleting my edits without regard for content? Surely adding an internal link isn't so controversial that it requires discussion on the talk page. Also, I've addressed the Pawg14 account issue - see my userpage. I'd forgotten my login info for the other account, so I set up a new account, not realizing that this counts as sockpuppeting. I haven't used the alt account since. It's also bold to accuse me of making edits with an agenda, given that you've often worn your agenda on your sleeve. (If we're going to dredge up the past, you've been warned about brigading.) You have no idea what my personal views on these topics are. I take NPOV seriously, even when I might personally support a biased statement. See my edits on The Amityville Horror, John Derbyshire, and K. Eric Drexler, and my contribution to the talk page on right-to-work law. In the case of Drexler and right-to-work, I objected to non-neutral statements on both sides of the debate. Lrieber (talk) 13:41, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

Hey LIla, I agree that some of your edits are very valuable and should definitely not be reverted. The problem is that often these are mixed with more controversial ones, so those of us who object to the latter are forced to go through the laborious process of telling the two apart. This is part of the reason why I think you should have sought consensus before deleting all this content: this would have allowed you to make the uncontroversial edits without fear that they would be reverted.

Nothing I did on this article was controversial. If I deleted sections, it's because I was re-organizing. I left most of the info intact and added some. Lrieber (talk) 00:25, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
