Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/KDRGibby/Evidence

message: KDRGibby makes several arguments in the course of his discussion on talk pages that I wish to counter. Firstly, he asserts that copy and paste reinsertions are not reverts, which reflects a misunderstanding of the 3RR rule.
Secondly, he justifies the use of ad hominem saying they are not personal attacks because they do not use insults such as "moron", etc. However, continually making disparaging remarks on what he asserts to be an editor's misconception, stating that "you have no understanding at all about sth topic"...such statements are perhaps acceptable from teacher to student, or when the statement at hand is generally out of the mainstream, however, not when it when its truth or applicability is disputed. KDRGibby constantly downplays other editors' debating ability in order to try to assert his victory in discussion and debate. This becomes a form of ad hominem, and therefore, a personal attack. 
KDRGibby makes claims of "bullying", alleging basically that Wikipedia has a cabal of editors who conspire together to try to suppress information. Besides the standard There is no cabal response, or any other response to a conspiracy theory, I feel the urge to point out that posting about a revert war on IRC and asking for thoughts or assistance is an acceptable practice and is not a case of majoritarianism on Wikipedia, like he claims.

Talk:Mercedes-Benz W111

message: I just noticed the Mercedes-Benz W111 page was made into a redirect on 12:18, July 6, 2006. However, the opening paragraph of this article says "Though never officially designated as such, the cars gained the nickname [Heckflosse] because of..." etc etc.
I'm going to reverse the redirects for two reasons:
#Wikipedia suggests naming articles after "what the majority of English speakers would most easily recognize". Clearly, that wouldn't be the German word for 'Fintail'.
#For consistency with the rest of Wikipedia; see the Classic MB template and pretty much every individual article linked from there.

message: In the section on the sedan it says "all models shared the 2195 cc M127 straight-six engine carried over from the previous generation, producing 95 hp (71 kW) at 4800 rpm", but below in the chart it lists 3 models of 220 Sedan, starting with 95PS and reaching 120PS. They all used the M127 engine, but not the 95PS version. I assume that was the base model. One of these claims must be mistaken.

Talk:North Coast railway line, Queensland

message: After going through rail sources ie ,  to name a few.  I'm putting up for suggestion whether this article should be split, with this article to be mainly about the railway line from Brisbane to Cairns with some information about electrification, the type of services + a brief description of locations/stations along the route.  
I originally created the article by retrieving information off the separate Nambour and Gympie Rail line pages (both the Nambour and Gympie rail articles have been redirected to this page).  Since then I had expanded on that to include a brief description on the route beyond Gympie (ie Rockhampton electrification, and other things).  Why I'm suggesting this split is because currently this article is 75% of the Citytrain stuff, and 25% of the route to Cairns/Rockhampton.
The Brisbane to Nambour/Gympie North route could be split into a separate article ie Nambour and Gympie North railway line, Queensland which could contain the Citytrain info and stations. 
Any other suggestions or thoughts? --Arnzy (whats up?) 12:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
