Outing and edit waring.

If you think this constitutes outing, the appropriate thing to do is to go to WP:OS, not perpetuate an edit war. A.Prock (talk) 19:44, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Wrong. WP:OS is for expunging history and is available as a longer-term solution; WP:OUTING is very clear that reverting the offending comment is the right short-term solution. Rvcx (talk) 19:46, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

From WP:OUTING; Any edit that "outs" someone must be reverted promptly, followed by a request for Oversight to delete that edit from Misplaced Pages permanently.A.Prock (talk) 19:49, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

That's exactly what I'm referring to—requests to oversight don't get answered immediately, so in the meantime you just rely on plain old reverts. What's the confusion here? Rvcx (talk) 19:53, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Oversighting also apparently isn't possible in AN/I threads. I'm not sure why that's the case, but it's what I was told when I requested oversight for Mathsci's original comment accusing me of being a holocaust denier, and it's the reason why the diff of his comment about this has never been removed. --Captain Occam (talk) 20:32, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
