Summary:

edit

I am a relatively new user who has been on wikipedia for a couple of months. I have been editing some controversial articles and adding sourced information woefully lacking in those articles most of which had a specific ideological bias against specific ethno-religious groups. This bias was carefully placed by a loose group of users (represented as my opponents above) who immediately started reverting and revert-warring my edits and attacking me on talk pages. Finally, one of them filed an ArbComm against me. As you can see by the heated debates going on in the Evidence Page I have linked above, the situation is getting out of hand and the users are deliberately misrepresenting events as part of a campaign to skew the evidence against me. As you can see from my posts there, I have become too emotive about this matter to objectively handle my case or present my evidence and I would like some help from an experienced wikipedian who can guide me as to how I should present my case properly. It is a daunting task that involved analyzing the contribs of several users over the course of the last two months. Nonetheless, I would like the help of a wikipedian who would take the challenge to guide me on this matter.

Case Status: closed


Advocate Status:

  • I'll take it. TheronJ 17:25, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I am closing this case, subject to reopening on request. Martin and I have been advising HKelkar by e-mail and will remain available to him regarding any future steps. However, in light of the recent ArbComm decision banning both HKelkar and the parties he was in dispute with, see Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar#Remedies, there is probably not too much more to be done.
