User:Ivan Kricancic/Emir Arven - Vandalistic Nationalist Troll

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emir Arven (talk • contribs) is a fanatical nationalist, who regularly misquotes other users, and seems to only edit Wikipedia to promote his own agenda, rather than improve the overall quality of the project. He repeatedly uses personal attacks, and has been blocked numerous times for doing so. All the user does is preach hatred against Serbs and Croats, and tries to re-write history. No wait, that's not all he does - he also provokes other users, and, either does not understand English, or, is too unintelligent to understand what people are trying to say to him. Below is important information and evidence about his disgusting behaviour on Wikipedia. After reading over the evidence, make up your own mind whether to trust him or not, and whether he deserves to be banned or not.

[edit] Diffs of his behaviour

This section has specific diffs of Emir Arven's contributions to Wikipedia since he first joined. Please note, that this is incomplete, as it does not take into account the many sockpuppets he has most certainly used; and also, I deliberately did not include many of his edit warring pages and uncivil edit summaries, as the list would have been far bigger than it already is. If you wish to examine them yourself, feel free to visit his contributions and conduct your own investigation. This diff list will undoubtedly grow larger as time goes on, as Emir does not seem to realise that his behaviour is unacceptable.

• 2nd ever edit. Emir here claims Bosnian Language uses both Cyrillic alphabet and Latin alphabet; however in the future, he claims anyone who says Bosnian uses Cyrillic "hates Bosniaks".
• Here he starts using POV language and weasel words to portray the whole Serb nation guilty of genocide.
• Without providing any sources, Emir claims that Naser Oric did not kill civilians, but "soldiers", in order to lessen the crimes of this horrible man.
• Edit summarry that implies all of Serbia denies genocide. Also of note, here and almost everywhere else, Emir does not use capital "S" and capital "C" for Croat/ia/n and Serb/ia/n - another example of his racism and lack of respect for Serbs and Croats.
• Provokes an anonymous user, and says the anon is "condemned" for questioning the "facts" of Srebenica.

• Removes POV tag without removing the POV.
• Removed a POV tag, and then added some more POV.

• He then went to some person's talk page and lied about what had just happened - he says that i am a potential nationalist who removed a huge section of sourced information, when in fact, I reverted unsourced vandalism, that was in a tiny section of the article.

Ustašoids in action I want to warn you, that user Ivan Kricancic, look at his user page,in his mad fanatism goes from one picture related to Bosnia to another, and suggests their deletion. Often he does that unsigned: 58.165.115.192. I know it is hard to deal with assholes, but the moron is sick and in this manner he had deleted a lot of articles about Srebrenica also.

• Personal attack.
• [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] More provocations, personal attacks, false accusations, and general incivility and ignorance.

[edit] Attack pages

User talk:Emir Arven and the bottom half of User talk:Emir Arven/Archives 4 are basically attack pages against me.

[edit] Block log

Let's now have a look at Emir's block log

• 00:32, February 12, 2007 Nishkid64 (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" (anon. only, account creation blocked) with an expiry time of 2 weeks (3RR violation, several personal attacks, longer block as this user has been blocked for PA multiple times.)
• 00:30, February 12, 2007 Nishkid64 (Talk | contribs) unblocked Emir Arven (contribs) (Extending block.)
• 11:20, February 11, 2007 Aksi great (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" (anon. only, account creation blocked) with an expiry time of 72 hours (3RR on Alija Izetbegović)
• 03:26, September 11, 2006 Blnguyen (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" with an expiry time of 72 hours (personal attacks)
• 21:48, March 6, 2006 DragonflySixtyseven (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" with an expiry time of 24 hours (need to defuse)
• 22:11, February 28, 2006 DragonflySixtyseven (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" with an expiry time of 72 hours (reblocking)
• 22:09, February 28, 2006 DragonflySixtyseven (Talk | contribs) unblocked Emir Arven (contribs) (had earlier been given shorter blocks)
• 21:47, February 28, 2006 DragonflySixtyseven (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" with an expiry time of 72 hours (Mandatory cooling-off period)

• 23:37, November 25, 2005 Chris 73 (Talk | contribs) blocked "Emir Arven (contribs)" with an expiry time of 24 hours (3RR on Petar Petrović Njegoš and other articles)

Emir has been blocked eight (8) times for heavy edit warring, personal attacks, and rampant incivility. These blocks span his entire Wikipedia career, so it is clear that he will not learn from his mistakes, and he will continue his disgusting behaviour into the future unless something is done.

[edit] Conclusion

At this stage it has become clear that Emir Arven is nothing more than a vandalistic, nationalist troll. He certainly is not here to edit constructively, but he is here to spread lies, propaganda, racism, and get on everyone's nerves. In all honesty, I believe that any administrator who has good foresight will punish this "editor" as soon as possible with an indefinite block or a ban, with no chance of him ever coming back to the English Wikipedia. —KingIvan 08:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
