[WikiEN-l] Reithy is a problem

Fri Nov 5 03:02:40 UTC 2004

I apologize if this is the wrong place to go with this. The user
Reithy is becoming a real problem in terms of edit warring, locking
articles, and harassing users on talk pages. He pores through my edits
looking for ways to nitpick, his latest act was a veiled legal threat
on a fair use image I uploaded:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Image_talk:Doughty_Rockity_Roll.jpg&diff=7114277&oldid=7113911

The image is a low-res album cover, clearly fair use, but he said "I
will send an email to the record company, if you like to ask whether
they agree with you." I take this as a legal threat.

He is of course the user who repeatedly vandalized libertarian-related
articles a couple weeks ago. He has since become more stealthy about
flagrant violations, but continues to harass me on my talk page. He
has a current open request for arbitration. No offense, but I'd like
to get things moving here. He's a troll. Everything he does is acting
in bad faith. He has even removed charges from his own RFAr, and
removed links from his evidence page. In my opinion, he should be long
gone.

Thank you,
