Cornelius Gilliam

Context

You reverted an edit I made to the article about my 5th-great-grandfather, Cornelius Gilliam. I'm curious as to how you're related to Cornelius and if we are cousins. ETO Buff (talk) 08:54, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

People other than his relatives are allowed to edit that page. Please read about WP:NPOV. Cheers. Valfontis (talk) 11:30, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
ETO Buff, I think you must have me confused with Gilliam. Please take the discussion to one of your talkpages if you want to discuss genealogy. As far as I know there aren't any Gilliams in my direct line. Cheers, Valfontis (talk) 19:59, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The point of my question was to learn what information you have about my ancestor that contradicts the histories and newspaper articles in my possession and gives you good reason to revert my changes. Thanks. ETO Buff (talk) 05:30, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that was a very unclear way to ask about the edit in question. My edit summary explained: "rv POV". I reverted your edits because they appeared to introduce a non-neutral point-of-view. See WP:NPOV for more information. I don't need any special knowledge to do that kind of revision. Cheers, Valfontis (talk) 00:28, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Umpqua Community College shooting

Hey man. Yeah, I understand the problem. I didn't know it had to explicitly state that, thanks. Alvandria (talk) 20:43, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a man, but thanks for understanding. I'm sure there will be sources for that soon. Cheers, Valfontis (talk) 20:47, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hey man, I'm really not trying to edit war. It's just that this guy is constantly removing relevant information and talking to me through edits instead of my talk page. He seems to care more about the formatting than the actual info.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Alvandria (talk • contribs) 14:37, October 1, 2015‎
So stop editing the article and try to engage him/her on the talk page. You can both be blocked if you keep it up. And please stop calling me "man". Cheers, Valfontis (talk) 21:40, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Alvandria: See this conversation. Valfontis (talk) 21:54, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Extended content

I am shocked but not surprised when I saw the following edit.

Versus001 is highly troublesome, trying to edit war with me. He follows me and reverts my edits. He snoops and stalks at my sandbox by patrolling it.

I don't know what to do. Just hope he victimizes someone else and not me. Sandra opposed to terrorism (talk) 23:31, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Because AMERIXANPSYCHO was doing what you did and was consistently including outdated, irrelevant info without a legitimate reason and had a conspiracy theorist-like attitude regarding his edits being undone. Also, wishing harm to someone else on Wikipedia is completely against policy. Versus001 (talk) 00:16, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Get this off my page. Now. Please try WP:ANI. Valfontis (talk) 00:18, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry, are you talking to me in regards to my specific response? Or the both of us in regards to this entire section? Versus001 (talk) 00:20, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Both of you. I'm an admin but I don't have time to investigate and mediate whatever this dispute is about. Take this conversation somewhere else. Valfontis (talk) 00:38, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Versus001 (talk) 00:43, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If anyone had a conspiracy-theorist viewpoint it was this bully Versus001. He has been in at least 5 separate incidents involving edit wars or being temporarily banned/warned. See how he had to bring me up even though I washed my hands of this hours ago? I was going off of credible reports, which I now admit to be false, from sources such as Reuters in addition to local Oregon sources (the County Commissioner, etc). When are the mods going to really take action against the person who can't seem to avoid trouble? I know I wouldn't ever want to share a classroom with him. AMERIXANPSYCHO (talk) 12:54, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The fuck. Take this off my page. Now. All of you. Shoo. Git. Valfontis 13:08, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that was incredibly rude. I didn't bring myself into this conversation- Versus001 brought me into it. I've moved on past this. I would appreciate it if you didn't include me in your expletive rant, Valfontis, and please kindly keep my name out of your mouth. Cheers! AMERIXANPSYCHO 16:14, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
