:Agreed these two articles are taking up too much of everybody's time. The more this goes on the more convinced I am that Offender9000 ( see edits this morning to Department of Corrections restoring a bunch of his material) is not going to be happy with any version of these two article (and possibly others that you mention above) being in a Neutral state. I also have other articles I want to work on ( like 1951 New Zealand waterfront dispute ) and prefer not to engage in edits wars.  

 :I think we should go to one of the official processes to arbitrate or whatever. To put it bluntly something that if it finds against him can ban him from editing these articles. Suggestions as to which is the best one welcome and I can file it. -
