Note: The page is dedicated to various ways Wikipedia editors have described my contributions, including " Nazi hunter" and " Coffmanising". The comments span from November 2015 to May 2017.
Promoted to Nazi Hunter, Junior Grade in February 2017, I currently serve in the Hard-line Anti-NaziTM Special Operations Executive branch of WP:MILHIST. My contributions include the reduction of the 100% unadulterated Nazi propaganda (aka the Wehrmachtbericht) and clarifying notability of WWII award recipients that resulted in the Redirect proposal for Knight's Cross winners. My service commendations include Vandal's Cross of the Iron Cross and a nomination for the MILHIST WikiChevrons with Oak Leaves.
I've been frequently accused of "vandalism" by three editors, by my count. The most prolific of them is currently (semi) retired, so most of the entries are from my early 'Wiki career'. In one these cases the editor really went after me with a machine gun: 26 in just about an hour. Some of diffs are presented below:

All of these labels were in violation of policy, BTW; pls see: WP:VANDNOT. And a pertinent aside: Not vandalism. Recent crop, mostly relating to the Redirect proposal for Knight's Cross winners:
[K.e.coffman] will continue his uninformed editing and vandalism of the work that you, me, Misterbee and other good researchers have done so far..." ( diff) -- all of the three editors in question are present here.

I award myself the Vandal's Cross of the Iron Cross in Gold with Swords and Diamonds (Vandalekreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes in Gold mit Schwertern und Brillanten), for achieving, in just two days, three (3) vandalism labels; one (1) pushing-the-envelope label; and one (1) POV label, further distinguishing myself:
I'm working towards a Deletionist's Cross of the Iron Cross.
If you take this sort of action on articles on my watchlist, expect to be reverted and asked to provide reliable sources that contradict what is in the article-- right, because it's not a completely impossible thing to do.
Reverted good faith edits by 82.9.237.59 (talk): Copyvio http://warthunder.com/en/news/855-Special-Kurt-Knispel-the-Tank-Legend-en/
In effect, he is notable for being the "tank ace" with the most kills. I'd add this to the lead paragraph, except that the German article lacks a source.
Most of the information appears to have been deleted. this was most likely erronious (sic) or malicious.
What happened to all the content ? There used to be a lot of information here about his military career, unconventional attitude to military discipline etc... why has it been deleted?
The stories about Knispel being a rebel are all over the internet but are almost entirely unsupportable. They credit him with everything short of X-ray vision and Daniel Boone shooting prowess. (...) I have yet to read anything credible which backs these claims up and I'm pleased to see they have not made it into this article.
Restoring page after severe edit warring and mass deletions without consensus. Almost entire page was deleted.
NOTE: My "deletionist" activities can be observed via this handy AFD tracker. My AfD nominations only: link. My PROD log is at User:K.e.coffman/PROD log. My CSD log is at User:K.e.coffman/CSD log.
Let's see how many I can accumulate to qualify for the Stick Retention Badge:
This sections include the general references of being "the other" whose contributions are questioned and are generally not welcome. Ironically, I've been accused of being both "anti-German" and from "de WP", allegedly trying to import the apparently stricter guidelines as to sourcing & NPOV (i.e. this editor been asked since 2013 to Please stop pushing this Nazi publication "Helden der Wehrmacht...".). Here are some highlights:
TOTAL: 100 points
Another round of Bingo! (source: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J.J. Fedorowicz Publishing):
References
Bottom line: Creating an essay WP:IDONTLIKESMELSER&DAVIES may not be such a bad idea.
Requires no explanation: I have arrived! (On a side note, aren't Nazi hunters sort of heroes? Good company to be with: Jules Schelvis, Beate Klarsfeld, Simon Wiesenthal, etc.)
I think that burning the books is not the way to go. From an editor who created this before and after comparison, including a non-existing battle.
