Howdy. I see you're active at DRN so figured you'd be a decent shot at this. I came across a long-running (month long) edit war atNiclas Adler while doing my typical patrol of1346 (hist ·log). I'm not involved but added the page to my watchlist. There is a mixture of TAs and experienced editors involved. Can you take a look? Not exactly sure what should be done but hoping someone can mediate. Thanks!NicheSports (talk)02:56, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your review Robert.I am a current student in Art of Problem Solving (no paid editing) and have alread discosed in my talk page.Regarding notability: The draft relies on independent secondary sources with significant coverage of the organization: - The Atlantic (2016 "The Math Revolution"): Multiple paragraphs discussing AoPS's online platform, community, enrollment, expansions (e.g., Beast Academy), and role in advanced math education trends. - Common Sense Education review: In-depth independent analysis of the company's divisions, resources (online school, Alcumus, forums), and educational model. - Cathy Duffy Reviews: Comprehensive independent review of the curriculum, textbooks, online tools, and problem-solving approach. These address the organization directly (history, products, impact) beyond passing mentions.The draft has also been revised for neutral tone. Does this help, or are there specific improvements needed? Thanks.Davidninjaking (talk)17:19, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @Robert McClenon
I am writing regarding the ongoing dispute over theMaire Tecnimont article.
After your earlier COI warning to @Msforzese, I revised the structure of the disputed material in good faith, integrating it into a neutral “Major projects” section alongside undisputed projects. Despite this, Msforzese has now removed the entire “Major projects” section, including neutral, well-sourced descriptions of projects that were not part of the original dispute.
Given the prior COI concerns and the continued removal of any material that reflects disputes or difficulties involving the same company, I am concerned that this now goes beyond a normal content disagreement and may constitute protective or tendentious editing.
I have documented the removal on the article’s talk page. I would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed.
Thank youTextGardener (talk)16:14, 12 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

HelloRobert McClenon,
Thank you for taking the time to review the draft. I’d like to seek clarification regarding the notability concern so I can improve the submission in line with policy.
The subject has received sustained, independent coverage over several years in national secondary sources such asThe Hindu,The New Indian Express,India Today,NDTV,The Week, andThe Times of India, covering his IPS career, tenure as BJP Tamil Nadu state president (2021–2025), electoral contests, and political controversies.
My understanding is that this meetsWP:GNG andWP:POLITICIAN, but I’m happy to further neutralise tone, reduce event-style reporting, or restructure sections if specific issues remain.
I’d appreciate any guidance on what changes would be necessary for the draft to meet AfC standards.Thank you for your time.TamizhanEditor (talk)06:57, 19 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,
I'm leaving this message because you contributed to the recent RfC regarding the inclusion of airport destination lists. As promised, now that that RfC has closed, I've initiated a further discussion about the sourcing standards to be applied to these lists.
If you wish to contribute to the discussion, please do so atWikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Airport destination lists - sourcing requirements.

Following thisclose, I've resumed discussion[1] on the talk page of the article in question, but I honestly realize that the discussion has stalled (that editor has already stated they "will not be leaving any further comments"[2]), and that's why I initiated dispute resolution in the first place. (Other editors and I have already listedWP:RS.) What should be done if there is a clear consensus for the proposed changes? (Which seems to already be the case.) Who should edit the article accordingly? I'll wait a few days to see if there are further comments.Israell (talk)14:53, 22 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

When I see your datestamp in discussion, I tend to relax a bit, as a calmer and cooler head than mine has chosen to weigh in. I don't know how this particular case will come out, but a large number of sensible wikipedians has agreed such hostage-taking statements may acquire a disproportionate influence if allowed to stand unchallenged. I'm all about free speech; this was precisely my objection to the naked threatagainst such free speech. If trusted servants of the pedia are made subject to unchallenged and personalized psychological manipulation, the entire system of "rough consensus and running code" is behind us. Thanks again for choosing to share your views.BusterD (talk)19:24, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Robert, I noticed your frustration or annoyance at trying to get a word in edgewise in the recently closed Rfc that at times was difficult to edit because it was changing so frequently. We have all been there. I immediately understood the meaning of your four very brief posts one after the other as actually all part of a one, unified reply thought, but published in small, separate chunks as a remedy for not getting shut out yet again by another conflict. May I offer a tip that may work better for you next time?
When I end up in that situation, and sometimes even prophylactically when I suspect I might, I find the insertion point where I want to reply and note the timestamp of the last reply above it and paste the ts into a text editor (or better: intoSpecial:ExpandTemplates), then I compose my response under the timestamp, taking care to start off with the right number of colon indents. After I'm done with that, I skip a few lines and write my edit summary. If the message merits it, I use ExpandTemplates to verify and edit your work as needed. When ready, select + copy my message *and* the edit summary onto the clipboard. Now comes the commando operation:
The steps following #1 should be done as rapidly as possible:
This sounds a lot more complicated than it is; the numbered steps take only a few seconds from page refresh through Publish. And the beauty of it is, in the unlikely event that someone publishes another edit in those few seconds, you do *not* have to go through the annoying, two-window, edit conflict resolution process. Instead, just cancel out, copy your message to the clipboard, and run the commando op again. Works like a charm! (It occurs to me that a user script might be able to do this even faster, given the insertion-point timestamp and a sandbox page with your message as inputs.) Hope this helps,Mathglot (talk)01:19, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I received the following reason for the discussion closure: "Closed as per the comment by Paper9oll. The editors listed in the dispute are only a subset of the editors involved in the discussion." I am not familiar with wiki editing (or any webpage editing). However, I would still like to file a dispute. How do I list all the editors? It is not clear to me who the editor is and who is not. What other requirements are there for reopening the case? I do want to pursue this issue because I believe it is important.~2026-77534-0 (talk)22:39, 10 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
By the way. I hope I didn't come across as too harsh in the talk page on you personally. Not solving this isn't your fault, it's a tough problem to solve because editors have fundamentally different desires for an article. IMO that just means we should have 3 separate articles or the like, but... eh. I do think an RFC might end up being the long-term solution, just this one might require the people who want a change to drive it and show wider support rather than an "outsider" like yourself. We'll see, I suppose.SnowFire (talk)03:29, 13 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
