Please stop your disruptive behaviour. It appears you are purposefully harassing another editor. Wikipedia aims to provide a safe environment for its collaborators, and harassing other users potentially compromises that safe environment. If you continue behaving like this, you may be blocked from editing. You must immediately stop the insults and harassment directed at Snow Fire. You could be blocked if you continue in this vein.

I will. Just a little upset. I believe I am allowed to insist he comply with your recommendation re: the “no formal accusations line.” Can it please be included per our supporters’ efforts and beliefs and sourcing, and your expertise/authority? WillieHowardCO67 (talk) 20:31, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Is there a process to formally request that insertion be made? I think you’ll agree it is egregious to this man to leave out that exonerating language. WillieHowardCO67 (talk) 20:39, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Huh? -- MelanieN (talk) 21:49, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Fred’s got it rolling on the talk page. I think this will be fair after all once the insertion goes in. Sorry for the trouble.WillieHowardCO67 (talk) 22:08, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

I was wrong. That boy snowfire reneged. He’s not acting in good faith. Can we make the change? WillieHowardCO67 (talk) 02:48, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Hello again. If you'd like to work with people on Wikipedia - anyone, not just me - you have to comply by Wikipedia editor guidelines. That means no personal attacks, and no harassment. That's table stakes. I'm not gonna have a conversation without that. I was willing to let bygones be bygones for a moment, to offer a compromise, and what was my reward? Immediately being insulted and attacked! Why would you think that is going to make me inclined to do what you say with ridiculous threats like this? If making an edit in your favor leads to abuse, then how is anyone supposed to work with you?

If you want to actually work with others, then you have to stop the harassment. Immediately. No threats. No conditions. It's not hard, it's what's done on 99% of Wikipedia talk pages, it's a basic requirement of being on this site at all. SnowFire (talk) 03:29, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

We agree. Sorry man. It got out of control. ReallyWillieHowardCO67 (talk) 03:32, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

That's something at least. On the matter of content: We'll see what C.Fred & co have to say tomorrow, then. SnowFire (talk) 03:53, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Ok. I think you’re trying to be a good person. You believe in your ideals. That’s cool. Just not in agreement with us at this time . But that didn’t give anybody the right to use language that is threatening. We will work with you and the administrators. No conditions, just The compromise. We bury this and move on, no conditions or ultimatum making. Time is precious.WillieHowardCO67 (talk) 04:37, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

DS Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
