From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In order to remain listed at Wikipedia:Requests for comment, at least two people need to show that they tried to resolve a dispute with this user and have failed. This must involve the same dispute with a single user, not different disputes or multiple users. The persons complaining must provide evidence of their efforts, and each of them must certify it by signing this page with ~~~~. If this does not happen within 48 hours of the creation of this dispute page (which was: 22:42, 23 March 2007 (UTC)), the page will be deleted. The current date and time is: 21:23, 8 June 2008 (UTC).

[edit] Statement of the dispute
User:A Man In Black, who is also an administrator, frequently engages in edit wars over a large set of articles. His actions include replacing the entirety of the article with redirect and similar deletions of content. His actions are generally opposed by the editors of those articles, yet he continues editwarring, unwilling to search for consensus. Furthermore, he engages in such unsavory tactics, as searching through the history of user contributions and deleting the content they contributed (the practice commonly known as Wikistalking), further spreading edit wars into the areas previously untouched by his presence.

[edit] Desired outcome
The purpose of this RFC is to gather community consensus on whether User:A Man In Black's behavior is worthy of Wikipedia editor and admin, and whether he should be allowed to continue wikistalking and edit warring around Wikipedia, since apparently the change in his behavior at this point is unlikely.
