Statement of the dispute

Certified.Gangsta consistently chooses to revert war rather than participating in discussion. He also loves to label reverts as "minor". When discussing he fails to understand points presented to him and does not yield to consensus. Please note that he has previously edited under the name Bonafide.hustla (talk · contribs). --Ideogram 05:05, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Desired outcome

Certified.Gangsta to cease revert-warring. Participate in discussion of all controversial changes in good faith. Yield to consensus when it is against him.

Things are quiet for a while after that. I don't have the energy to continue tracing this at this time.

Note that I have never seen Gangsta cite any sources or policy to support his edits during these disputes (feel free to check for yourself).

You are also welcome to look through his contributions trying to find any that are productive. Pretty much all his contributions are edit-warring.

Outside view by Anonymous Coward

There's two points that I'd like to make. The image may be silly, but I'm serious about the issue:

1. This RFC has been around for a while and has been advertised in several places. Not many users chose to comment, indicating that the Ideogram-Gangsta show is a distraction, a sideshow, not something that's pressing or worth commenting on.
2. Ideogram has an unpleasantly belligerent attitude and must remember that Misplaced Pages isn't a battleground.
