Link for Gerald Oliver Smith
editThe continuing reversion of my linking of this name is combative and pointless. Please restore this link. Chubbles (talk) 04:46, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- If you think this actor is notable enough to deserve an article, then write the article and let's see if it passes notability. I think not -- he's an obscure nobody -- but I could be wrong, so go ahead and write the article and then link him. The person is not the kind of subject that WP:REDLINK is about. Also, let me remind you the MOS is a guideline and not a policy, and is not mandatory; WP:edit warring, however, is a policy and must be followed. Fruther, please review WP:BRD. When your Bold edit has been Reverted by another editor, the next step, if you continue to think the edit is necessary, is to Discuss it on the article talk page, not to re-revert it, which is the first step to edit warring. During the discussion, the article remains in the status quo ante, where I have left it. Thanks, BMK (talk) 04:52, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- You lost the moral high ground on edit-warring after the first reversion. Every edit you've made after that appears to be in complete ignorance of the fact that I already wrote an article about him. This is the third time I have told you this. You do not have the right to willy-nilly revert people without reason, and if you reason is cut out from under you, you cannot grandstand here and claim I'm the one flouting policy. Now, are you done with this lame edit war, or shall we go on pointlessly shouting at each other over this manufactured molehill? Chubbles (talk) 04:55, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- Actually, that's not the case, each of my edits was in line with recommended action on WP:BRD, returning the article to the status quo ante before your edit. If you've already written an article about him, why is the link red? If it's not in article space yet, wait until it's in article space. BMK (talk) 04:58, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
- The link isn't red. Refresh your browser. Alternately, navigate to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Oliver_Smith . Chubbles (talk) 04:59, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
