[edit] Daniel O'Connell

Your attempts at censorship re O'Connell are not appreciated. If you persist I will take the matter to the Administrator's Noticeboard. You came to Wikipedia with an agenda:

The period of history covered by the Young Irelanders, or correctly titled Irish Confederation, is deeply interesting. In it we find the origins of the Republican physical force tradition. Through their writings we see the evolution of Irish Nationalism forged into a coherently articulated force. While they have left us a boundless spring of primary sources, the misconceptions created around them by unscrupulous writers, who believe they can shape the present by manipulating our understanding of the past is a challenge to all right thinking people who believe that history belongs to us all. A start must be made to address this; therefore I will place my axe to the root, and would invite you to do the same.

However, if you think you are going to impose your views on this page or any other you are mistaken. Your rv of my edits (for which you cited "see discussion page" in the edit summary although there is nothing there regarding this matter) is neither more nor less than an attempt at censorship. You can deify John Mitchel all you like, but keep it in your private writings, not a public access encyclopaedia. Jill Teed 18:35, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

If you check the discussion page on the Daniel O’Connell Article, you will see the reason for the revert. And hands up, I have an agenda! An agenda which I spell out on my user page, which you helpfully provided. To correct the information on Young Ireland, and back it up with referenced material. Your accusation against me assumes bad fate, and is against wiki policy. You should address the edits of a user, and not the user, and not engage in this type of behaviour. I will now point this matter to an administrator, should you continue to engage me in such a hostile manner. Regards

[edit] No problem

Figured that information would be useful to you! One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 20:03, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Depiction of John Mitchel 1947 Wolf Tone Annual.JPG

[edit] Advice

Unfortunately the other editor got to your edit before you had posted to the talk page. However, good faith edits are never vandalism, and I see your edit as in good faith. Nor do I see your statement of intent as one to advocate POV, so that is a negative interpretation of it. There will always be differences of opinion occurring. If you want to keep your nose clean, follow a golden rule of one revert only, and then taking it to the talk page. This is WP:BRD. That way you never risk getting blocked for edit warring, let alone WP:3RR. Take the long term view. It doesn't have to be put right in 2 seconds. Wiki is going to be around for decades. Put your case and invite the other editor to discuss. If they fail to do this, then they will be in the wrong. If discussion doesn't solve matters, work through WP:DRV. Always comment on editors, not edits. Keep your tone moderate and reasonable, putting the case rationally, citing sources clearly, not putting opinions. Study the policies, WP:V, WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, WP:BLP plus WP:RS and refer to them. Tyrenius 01:53, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
