[edit] Request details
There is an edit war regarding one paragraph (Tom Sawyer Island), I say keep it, it is verified and has relevance, why the other person just keeps deleting it. I have tried to get the person into the Discussion pages, have requested Editor Assistance and a Third Opinion (with no response). They now claim I am "vandalising" the page, when I keep trying to have the person tell me why the paragraph doesn't meet Wikipedia Standards.
[edit] Who are the involved parties?
Myself, GeorgeKelsey, my IP is 76.168.181.42, and most of the history is under that IP, prior to setting up an account to register this request. The other person is 65.103.3.173 .
[edit] What's going on?
An edit war, where 65.103.3.173 pretty much refuses to discuss the matter, and keeps deleting the paragraph without reason (my opinion).
[edit] What would you like to change about that?
That a third party that understands the Wikipedia Standards makes a decision that the Paragraph is relevant and valid, or that it doesnt meet Wikipedia Standards.

[edit] Discussion
Why it doesn't belong: first of all, there is no clear-cut connection between Mr. Lutz blogging about this change and Disney making their decision. This is completely hearsay, and there is no possible way to verify it. Links are old and outdated. Further, it is merely a summary of a past posting of his, and doesn't really demonstrate who he is or why he blogs on Wikipedia. There have been absolutely no strong reasons as to why this should remain. The whole Lindsey Lohan-Disneyland party thing he blogged about might be better for this page, but even that is rather dubious for the Wikipedia.
Please provide some STRONG evidence as to why Tom Sawyer should stay, because in its current form it really doesn't belong. 151.151.21.101 (talk) 18:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
