Intervention request by an Administrator, please[edit]
Hi, @Kusma . I'm contacting you after visiting [1] and [2]. I'm having a problem with users @TylerBurden (abusing his Wikipedia rights) and @Borgenland, who are deleting my editions in the conflictive page Timeline of the Russian invasion of Ukraine (1 December 2023 – present). Specifically, they're deleting a properly sourced edition by me, with a highly relevant deposition by NATO's supreme commander on April 10, here and here. Then, @Tylerburden also came to my talk page to try and intimidate me, and has also erased the content in the main page about the war Russian invasion of Ukraine, here. Sorry for bothering you, but I'd need help to learn how to proceed. Best regards, MaeseLeon (talk) 18:37, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
- I had explained to them in my edit summary as to why and have made a more detailed explanation in their talk page, but instead complainant above has made wild accusations and bad faith assumptions. Borgenland (talk) 18:57, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
- This does not appear to be an admin matter at this point. Not everything that is sourced must be included. If you wish to explain why you think the content should be included, the best place is on the relevant talk page. —Kusma (talk) 19:25, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
