In tagging, I am not making an assumption that the information is wrong, just that it needs verification, this is an encyclopaedia so most claims need to be {{WP:V|verified]]. One does not need to provide justification for a fact tag. It is simply a signal to other editors that verification is preferred. you say "Most of the history that you tagged was correct" that is irrelevant. Anyone can edit an article. Misplaced Pages is not a restricted personal project of a select group of editors. This is where you display a high level of WP:OWN#EVENTS. To you it's obvious that this information is 100% correct but to others it isn't. You've been interpreting my tagging from Day 1 as being totally in bad faith. I've never encountered someone so defensive about it. I initially gave you good faith thinking your WP:OWN#EVENTS would wear off but it hasn't. It appears you haven't read this policy. Hence the warnings.
An editor comments on other editors' talk pages with the purpose of discouraging them from making additional contributions. The discussion can take many forms; it may be purely negative, consisting of threats and insults, often avoiding the topic of the revert altogether. At the other extreme, the owner may patronize other editors, claiming that their ideas are interesting while also claiming that they lack the deep understanding of the article necessary to edit it. Typical comments: "Are you qualified to edit this article?" "Revert. You're editing too much. Can you slow down?"

- Further comment, take a look at featured articles, you'll notice almost every piece of information in these articles (which some might say is so obvious) is referenced. These articles are considered the best because amongst other things strength of the referenced content. Michellecrisp (talk) 10:56, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
