981:(my bolding). His posts tend to be obscure, evasive, confusing, polemic, selfconscious - he seems to consider these commentaries an art form or an academic activity in its own right, rather than a part of a proces to improve the actual articles. His commentaries are perhaps suitable for a coffee break chit-chat at an academic institution amongst scholars who enjoy that sport, but here, he's just cluttering up talk pages with discussions going nowhere. I have not identified the editor in question, as I do not want to report him at this point - in fact it's difficult to single out anything to report. Rather, I would like advice on how to proceed, if at all, based on the assumption that my assessment is fair.16:13, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

My problems can be picked up at my user talk page, wblakesx talk. I have never modified an article itself, and have never had any problems before. I have found incivility and presumtions, from some admins, of bad faith where none existed. After removing the objected to material have "been left hanging in the air". I replied to links left on my talk page and have been threated for vandalism and serious vandalism.

They have not yet gotten to the point where I feel comfortable slapping up template but the constant charges of bias and unfounded attacks against other editors has really soured the discussion. This user also after disagreeing with a few edits went through the article deleting many sections seemingly out of spite.
