message: User:BedrockPerson: why on earth are you removing the 1922, 1931 and 1945 data?? I am going to revert you, and I have not broken the 1RR rule (reverting IPs and editors with less than 500 edits does not count.) Huldra (talk) 20:21, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: You did not integrate the 1922, 1931 and 1945 data...you removed all the data about religion! This is completely unacceptable, and I will revert you (and you can report me all you like...my last revert of a valid editor, that is, you, was  20:42 9 March) Huldra (talk) 21:12, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

text: BedrockPerson, why don't you just cool it with the ALL-CAPS and bold, that's not a calm way to communicate. And I expect you to communicate calmly here. It does seem like a somewhat trivial detail, but why not add it anyway? El_C 17:48, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:    If 5% of Yarkas population had been Jewish, would that have been notable? Think about it; would you have removed that information?? And if you are so "hellbent"  on keeping all the "tremendous fixes" you made (heck, Trump speech is apparently spreading...;P), why not just do your "tremendous fixes"  without removing the religion info? Not a complex concept. Huldra (talk) 22:38, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: We can do without the sarcasm, Huldra.  I expect you both to be on your best behaviour. Why can't you retain his fixes, either? El_C 00:37, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  EL C:  Yes, but why  should it be my job to sift through his changes, to see what is salvageable, or not? Such a favour has never  been extended to me....or anyone else in the IP area, AFAIK. The thing is, it takes a certain ... temperament, or should I say, lack of temperament, in order to edit in the IP area. In my experience, less than 1 in 10 editors "survive"  for long. Nothing so far has convinced me that BedrockPerson is among the 1 in 10. (And I would be happy to be wrong, here...) And  also I really would like an answer from him about  the question above: If 5% of Yarkas population had been Jewish, would that have been notable?  Huldra (talk) 23:22, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

text: ...and now  could we please perhaps return to editing? If you still want to edit this article, may I suggest that you start with the time outside the British Mandate era, as it was the edits in the British Mandate paragraph which was objected to earlier? Huldra (talk) 22:24, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

text: Yes, but if you remove something and that removal ends up being disputed, the onus is on you to reintegrate that back again when challenged. Those may be trivial numbers, but it is a village of less than one thousand people, so it may be of slight interest to our reader. Why not just do the work. As for the SPI report, do you deny those IPs are you logged out? You say that the conflict is "a thousand miles away"—not for everyone here it is(!). That said, I can't see why having or not having those details has anything to do with a position on the IP polemic. It's just some overly detailed demographic info, which I suggest you simply re-add to your changes, so that we can be done with this senseless dispute. And do cool it, overall. Israel et al. is heated enough realm, and I'd hate to agree with Hudlra about that 1 in 10 not making it. El_C 22:26, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
