Tony Mooney contested the Mundingburra by-election

[edit]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mundingburra_state_by-election,_1996

I am asking that editors stop removing the information about him being a candidate at the Mundingburra by-election. It is a fact that he was a candidate at that by-election and the editors who are removing this information have clearly little or no knowledge about this subject matter and will ask they cease and desist at that. If there is further tampering with my edit of this information I will consider it as harassment towards me. 220.239.167.151 (talk) 23:01, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to add information to the article please cite a reliable source that actually makes the claims you are trying to add. If you want to add stuff like: "Davies ran as an independent in order to prove a point that he could have won if he had been retained as the ALP candidate.", then that must be backed by a reliable source. And Wikipedia is a community, if you thing that editing based on reliable sources and consensus is harassment, then you should not be editing Wikipedia.

There was no basis to remove the entire information about Mooney being a candidate at the Mundingburra by-election. You seems to be adopting an all or nothing approach. Why don't you disprove that Mooney was a candidate at the Mundingburra by-election in order to justify the removal of that information. I am not convince that you know anything about the subject matter and you should walk away from it as you are truly harassing me and frankly your response has nothing but an intimidation against me and don't contact me again. 220.239.167.151 (talk) 07:36, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally this part of article: "Mooney's second attempt to win a parlimentary seat was in 2010 when he announced his candidacy for the Federal seat of Herbert, but he was defeated by Ewen Jones at the Federal election on 21 August 2010."

....was not mostly written by me and no source was required to back this statement so why is it that a source was not necessary for his candidacy in Herbert but one demanded of for Mundingburra. 220.239.167.151 (talk) 07:42, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is getting ridiculous. There is no editor out to get you, no editor out to harass you, no editor that has anything against you at all. You don't own articles, and you can't dictate who can edit an article. You keep claiming that other editors know nothing about the subject and therefore shouldn't edit them. Well frankly, an editor doesn't have to know anything about a subject to know that Wikipedia policies are not being followed. When other editors try to explain this to you, it results in you attacking the editors, accusing others of harassing you, telling them not to edit the article again, and not to contact you again. Your contribution history clearly shows that this is nothing new, you have reacted with the same type behavior time-and-time again. When reverted, you take the same route everytime, attack the other editors and accuse them of harassment. If you think this is how Wikipedia works, then you have a very flawed view of Wikipedia. If you can't take constructive criticism, refuse to work with other editors, and resort to attacking those who try to help you, maybe Wikipedia isn't the best place for you. When you think of it, if there is any harassment going on here, it could appear to some that it's actually coming from you against other editors, not the other way around. 142.166.90.155 (talk) 21:13, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As the fact about the Mundingburra by-election is still in the article the matter is closed for me and I would asked everyone not to contact me at all about anything. Any issues with edits I made should be addressed at the articles concerned and no personal contact with me at all. 220.239.167.151 (talk) 22:01, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

King of Nothing has again tamper with the information about the Mundingburra by-election by removing it. King of Nothing is clearly harassing me and I am asking for him to stop doing it. 142.166.90.155 I do not appreciate the commentary from you about whether I should be editing at Wikipedia. The point is there is an inconsistency about there being no problem with his candidacy at Herbert being mentioned but not his candidacy at Mundingburra. I am therefore trying to rectify this imbalance and I ask King of Nothing to stay out of this article.220.239.167.151 (talk) 09:12, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What I said earlier: "....was not mostly written by me and no source was required to back this statement so why is it that a source was not necessary for his candidacy in Herbert but one demanded of for Mundingburra." Before anyone makes another tampering with the Mundingburra information I ask that you answer that question first.220.239.167.151 (talk) 22:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just because there is other stuff on Wikipedia that violates policies and is not up to standards doesn't mean that you can keep re-adding information that violates basic policies, Other stuff exists and But it's true! is not justification for adding unsourced original research and edit warring. King of Nothing (talk) 23:14, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe I violate anything and you have not address the inconsistency between the presentation of the information of Mundingburra and Herbert. Leave this alone as you clearly have no knowledge about the subject and stop pestering me about original research and some such as I can't understand a single word of it.220.239.167.151 (talk) 00:02, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you can't understand what original research is, then you should not be editing Wikipedia. The burden is not on me, the burden is on you. I don't have to remove every unsourced bit of content and every bit of original research to be able to remove the original research that you have added. You need to end the hostility and stop adding unsourced original research. King of Nothing (talk) 12:07, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am not reading your response King of Nothing as I suspect that you are not addressing the question that I ask and therefore not worth my time in reading. Leave me alone. 220.239.167.151 (talk) 22:49, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

King of Nothing has once again failed to address the inconsistency between Mundingburra and Herbert. You should not have one without the other.220.239.167.151 (talk) 04:24, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
