Rodeo
Buttermilk, as the lead editor on rodeo, I am absolutely appalled that I took a five day wikibreak to find a carefully crafted article to be almost completely destroyed. You made massive edits without consensus to an article that I have been working on for over two years. You removed footnotes and sought no comments or input. The content there was a carefully crafted compromise between pro-and anti-rodeo forces and your total lack of collaboration was extremely poor wikiquette. I have restored the former version and will be carefully reviewing your work to see if there is some material that can be placed into the existing article. However, I am not opposed to improving the article, as the old version certainly was not perfect, but you need to work with other editors in a collaborative fashion and be willing to consider all viewpoints.

- Buttermilk, you keep cutting material from this without explanation and seem to be in a dispute over this article which was stable. While there are some posts on the talk page, they're not getting to the heart of the issue. — Rlevse • Talk • 11:51, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- You both feel the other is ruining the article, Buttermilk you claim she's "DESTROYED" it. That's hardly the case. What I do see is a content dispute where you both disagree and in your case you're removed large sections of referenced material. If the two of you can't work this out, I'll protect the article. — Rlevse • Talk • 12:24, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- I don't want anything to do with the article. It's a mess and as long as she's sitting on it, it will never improve. Ta! Buttermilk1950 (talk) 12:28, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
