[edit] Statement of complaint

He seems to believe that only he can be right and has been offensive to anyone that edits what he wrote. I think he should be banned for bahaviour, or at least, put on probation or something. Antonio Mitsubishi Martin

I support Antonio's request for arbitration. K1 uses all the time abusive and obscene language and keeps deleting my and others' contributions without comment to the actual matter. I am aware that arbitration is the last resort, but my RfC request seems to go nowhere, while the abuse is continueing. K1 appears to be unwilling to accept mediation. Please have look at Talk:William C. Rogers III and the revert history[1] of William C. Rogers III. There are many other examples, but this is probably enough, to see what I mean.

User K1 is currently banned for 24 h after insulting various other people on his talk pages. I would be happy and willing to accept mediation after his return. Refdoc 20:05, 17 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I would also appreciate arbitration, since K1 has refused mediation, insists on personal attacks (including new targets, which includes me now), and reverts removals of personal attacks. And this is after being blocked once. Roozbeh 23:55, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)

He has been blocked again, this time for 72 h for multiple abuse and reverting removal of abuse. I agree with Roozbeh, arbitration is needed, though I do remain open for mediation on the three article K1 seems to go ballistic over.- whenevre k1 decides to see the light and agree to mediation too. At teh moment this appears to be far off. Refdoc 00:46, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Please see Wikipedia:Requests for mediation#User:K1 and user:refdoc and archive 8. K1 has refused mediation. Angela., member of the Mediation Committee, 19:07, Jul 26, 2004 (UTC)

  • Refer to Mediation Committee. Actually, first off, just try to be nice. James F. (talk) 12:33, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC) Accept, given refusal to mediate. *sighs* James F. (talk) 08:55, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
