Edit war

Both AMERIXANPSYCHO and Versus001 are involved in an edit war. I've warned both users. Hopefully they'll stop before an admin gets involved. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 19:53, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will stop editing- though I was right- the current count is up to 13 and will be confirmed as 15+ soon. AMERIXANPSYCHO

It is pretty clear there is some sort of agenda involved with those edits. The more recent reports are all agreeing on between seven to ten dead, but AMERIXANPSYCHO seems to think all of this is coming from CNN, which he/she doesn't seem to trust, even though many other reports are agreeing on that number. Also, he/she has been using an early Reuters report and nothing else for his/her reasoning. Versus001 (talk) 19:56, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not make personal attacks here regarding "agenda." Stick to the sources and the revert rule.--JumpLike23 (talk) 20:00, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There's no "agenda", you conspiracy theorist. I just believe other more current news reports...such as ^[1]...not just Reuters AMERIXANPSYCHO
