Just some general advice
Hey just wanted to let you know that, in general, working on politically controversial content can be very taxing, time consuming, and risks being unrewarding and stress inducing. I'd recommend a side project related to your interests to keep you going, such as attempting to work on something like North American XB-70 Valkyrie with the intent of bringing it up to WP:GA status. I see the XB70 is already a GA. It could be a model. If you take this approach you'll probably develop more editing skills to improve your experiences around here, including those on politically controversial subjects. Happy editing.

- Probably a good idea. I'll do that as well. Yeah, success the political arena doesn't come without having a granite resolve to create righteousness, and along with it, a will to negotiate. Whereas I might not know everything about wikipedia there is to know, that still doesn't mean I've been robbed of the common sense to know when certain articles are bias and being gamed by partisan groups here on WP. I'll try breaking my intensity down with some fun articles too. Thanks for the friendly advise.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 21:36, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your recent comments. You may find User_talk:Alan_Liefting/Archive_16#ANI interesting, found on wp:Tea. 108.195.139.228 (talk) 01:53, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
Wow! Have you searched his name in the Admin noticeboards archive as well? [[1]]
I saw activity going back to 2008. The editor in question appears in 332 complaints as either the filer of those complaints or the subject of them. There are accusations of "tag-team reverting". He's been blocked a number of times and has had the accusation of harassment leveled at him repeatedly. Interestingly, I cut my teeth on commenting on videos with people like this on Youtube on various topics. I'm used to it. It's not like it isn't in my genetics to begin with, but it was reinforced to never let people like this allow you to give up on delivering righteousness. Can you imagine a pilot where, as soon as trouble raised its ugly head, he'd get up, leave the cockpit, sit down in first class, and while the aircraft careened towards the ground exclaimed, "Oh I give up!" LoL!
Well, I saw right away that the user fit the typical tea-party member profile. We're doing better now. We'll see how everything finally turns out, but I think we've both comprehended that neither one of us are push-overs. It's just that he seems to find himself in a lot of trouble assuming such role. --XB70Valyrie (talk) 02:37, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- I'll look at the link you posted. This may be of interest (view 500). Look for the "Be aware" Edit Summaries, for deletion on Talk pages. Here is an example: [2]. Looking back over Special:Contributions/Arthur Rubin through the years Mr. Rubin seems to be a real fountain of hate, and given that he is an Admin one might call it "judicial activism". 99.181.155.9 (talk) 03:57, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- This clearly shows the subject has been deleting other users posts on talk pages with whom he has differences in opinion. A quick FireFox word search brings that all to light in an instant. That's unscrupulous. So, has anything been done? I mean, it seems as if this subject simply terrorizes WP with immunity. Although I might from time to time bumble my way into an honest mistake, I'm glad Wikipedia is as meticulous at record keeping as a Nazi death camp. The trail of this subjects abuse is all over.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 04:59, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- This Portal talk:Current events/2012 May 6 is potentially interesting. He deletes a NYT reference, then states there isn't a source for wording, then Edit Wars over a synonym. Petty dictator behavior. 99.181.131.205 (talk) 05:38, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- Well. I see the word "mysterious" used in the correction from the June 6th article. "...A picture caption on Tuesday with an article about mysterious dolphin and seabird deaths..." But I don't see the June 6th article. Is there a link to it. I'm curious.

- I've had admins on another pilot career related site sanctioned before. I just had to contact the software owners at Internet Brands. Ultimately, people who actually run these sites are more contactable than you might think. Admins tend to think people don't know how to contact management, or are just too lazy.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 06:04, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
You've seen this, right? Wikipedia:Contact us/other Look at the way bottom.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 06:15, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
I wrote an email to this address and copied this html conversation into it recommending for both his dismissal as an admin and permanently blocking his most used IP. I suggest you do the same.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 02:29, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

- I would also recommend calling the Wikimedia Foundation. I can't disclose my contact's name here, because then the user will just rush off and want to lobby that person at Wikipedia, but, I have a strange feeling, if you press hard enough, our paths will cross on the same person's desk.

- By the way. If you do a Google "Wikipedia deletionist (User name) strikes again", you'll find out what makes them tick. AND! You'll see that the person whose article I was working on and this user, probably know of each other. All the pieces fit.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 07:26, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
- If the user concerned reads this and thinks they can stop me by suspending my account, I've already backed this section's html up in a word document. As a pilot, I'll bet you couldn't guess that system redundancy is one of my specialties.--XB70Valyrie (talk) 07:49, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
- If you're interested, all those IPs are the same person, and have many more edits than you or I. Also, I wouldn't think that I could stop you from posting your ... statements ... outside of Wikipedia by blocking your account, even if you have no idea what Wikipedia is for. I would add, though, that you should only repost your contributions to the page, or you would risk having a copyright violation if you reposted without appropriate credits.
- There is a reason that you have been unable to post your article (now on your user page) on Wikipedia, and I have had nothing to do with it. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 19:04, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Guy Macon (talk) 05:16, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

- Hi XB70Valyrie, I am not sure if you created the video on Youtube but I share a very similar experience with you and I have been heavily attacked not only by Arthur Rubin but also in response to reporting him to the Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
