I'm not going to revert because it's such a nit-picky thing, but I don't think we should describe his primary win with "easily." It's just so subjective. Yes, he won by a large margin, but was it "easy"? Arbor8 ( talk) 14:59, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
You've only raised concerns about two portions of my edits, and yet you insist on wholesale removing ALL of my edits without explanation, not just the ones you have a problem with. (Examples: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]) So since you have a problem with ALL of my edits, why don't you give us a line by line explanation of why every part of the edits you reverted were so egregious as to require reverting without explanation? Otherwise, please refrain from reverting if you don't have a rationale. SayHiWorld ( talk) 16:01, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
I agree with SayHiWorld, it's pretty stupid that they're deleted verifiable information and refusing to discuss it. I thought people got blocked for removing information while refusing to discuss it.. Why not make good arguments against each specific edit you have a problem with in such a manner that it could easily be responded to. You've had over two weeks to respond so why not make a good argument and give time to respond before removing again. Again, everything in their follows the BLP policies and is verifiable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomprox ( talk • contribs) 07:08, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
Again, please stop removing information without explaining it. This has been here for two weeks and nobody that has removed information has explained why it is wrong. STOP REMOVING STUFF and please explain what's so bad about it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomprox ( talk • contribs) 16:41, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
Since you guys are deleting everything I or anyone else add (I thought anyone could edit wikipedia???) I will explain my newest edits. In these edits, I added mention of the fact that Hurt has accepted congressional health insurance which has been widely reported on. The citation used is from the website of the second largest newspaper in the district. This deserves mention.
I also added information about his bill to repeal part of the consumer protection act in this edit. This also deserves mention and has been reported on by multiple, including national, news sources. Tomprox ( talk) 17:02, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
{{rfctag|bio|pol}} New editors (including myself) have added some new information to article, some of which has been shown to be inappropriate for wikipedia above by Sailsbystars and has been removed or edited to comply with wikipedia standards. Truthsot has threatened blocks and such but refused to lay out what exactly is bad about edits as can be seen above and in his most recent edit summary simply saying "cut it out". What would be an appropriate course at this point for this article to prevent edit warring? The exact question would be, is it appropriate to remove ALL content because parts of it previously violated policy and if so how should good content be reintroduced when a user insists on removing all edits without explanation.
