View source for Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Trey Stone and Davenbelle/Evidence

Anyone, whether directly involved or not, may add evidence to this page. Please make a header for your evidence and sign your comments with your name.

When placing evidence here, please be considerate of the arbitrators and '''be concise'''. Long, rambling, or stream-of-conciousness rants are not helpful. 

As such, it is extremely important that you use the prescribed format. Submitted evidence should include a link to the actual page diff; links to the page itself are not sufficient. For example, to cite the edit by Mennonot to the article Anomalous phenomenon adding a link to Hundredth Monkey use this form: <nowiki>[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anomalous_phenomenon&diff=5587219&oldid=5584644]</nowiki> [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anomalous_phenomenon&diff=5587219&oldid=5584644].

This page is not for general discussion - for that, see [[Wikipedia talk:{{PAGENAME}}|talk page]]. 

Please make a section for your evidence and add evidence only in your own section. Please limit your evidence to a maximum 1000 words and 100 diffs, a much shorter, concise presentation is more likely to be effective. Please focus on the issues raised in the complaint and answer and on diffs which illustrate behavior which relates to the issues.

If you disagree with some evidence you see here, please cite the evidence '''in your own section''' and provide counter-evidence, or an explanation of why the evidence is misleading. Do not edit within the evidence section of any other user.

Be aware that the Arbitrators may at times rework this page to try to make it more coherent. If you are a participant in the case or a third party, please don't try to refactor the page, let the Arbitrators do it. If you object to evidence which is inserted by other participants or third parties please cite the evidence and voice your objections within your own section of the page. It is especially important to not remove evidence presented by others. If something is put in the wrong place, please leave it for the arbitrators to move.

__TOC__

==Evidence presented by [[User:Trey Stone]]==
[[User:Davenbelle]] has shown no willingness to compromise in this encyclopedia in order to remove the transparent left-slanted bias from his constant reverting and edit warring. Primarily, he has not [[Wikipedia:Revert#Explain reverts|explained his uninterrupted reverting]], has utilized [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|unreliable sources]], has continued to add in [[Wikipedia:Check your facts|shaky information conforming to his POV]], and has continually violated [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|NPOV standards]].

I'll detail the evidence... after this commercial break.

===[[Corporate media]]===
This article is quite illustrative of Davenbelle's disdain for [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|NPOV]]. His edits are generally tilted toward favoring [[Noam Chomsky]] and [[Edward S. Herman]]'s self-described "[[propaganda model]]," as well as presenting pro-corporate bias as "apparent."

==== December 27 ====

* 04:40, 27 Dec 2004
** Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corporate_media&oldid=9035575 edits] the article to describe [[News Corporation]] as "massively right-wing," putting mass media "news" in quotes, and a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|POV]] characterization of such "news" as definitively "controlled by large corporate interests." He does not [[Wikipedia:Cite your sources|source]] the News Corp. claim, and the other edits are clear POV in favor of the "corporate media" thesis, without any balance. 

==== May 10 ====
* 22:56, 10 May 2005
** Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corporate_media&oldid=13530977 reverts] my edits again, this time with a new-and-improved POV version. He characterizes promulgators of the term "corporate media" as "media critics" without mentioning their predominantly left-wing line of thought, changes "commerical interest" to "corporate agenda," puts quotes around "News" in Fox "News" Channel, claims that News Corp. has staunch "right-wing politics," and describes the bias as "apparent." This is a clear violation of [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|NPOV]] standards.

* 23:00, 10 May 2005
** Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corporate_media&oldid=13531179 reverts] again with [[Wikipedia:Revert#Explain reverts|no explanation]]. He continues to do so for the next few days.

==== May 15 ====
* 03:59, 15 May 2005
** Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corporate_media&oldid=13866366 reverts] again. The only improvement is that he has taken out the blatantly POV characterization of FOX as "news."

===[[Allan Nairn]]===
This article is another good example of clear anti-American [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|POV]] that uncritically accepts Nairn's views as fact without [[Wikipedia:Cite your sources|citing sources]] to back up the journalist's claims.

====May 10====
*23:33, 10 May 2005
**I [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&oldid=13533025 edit] the article to provide more background for Nairn's allegations, particularly the controversial ones regarding unambiguous U.S. support for [[Front for the Advancement and Progress of Haiti|FRAPH]].

*23:45, 10 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&oldid=13548713] changes my edits regarding FRAPH back to the version that uncritically accepts Nairn's claims as objective truth.

====May 12====
*01:17, 12 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&oldid=13594440 reverts] my FRAPH edits again. He does so 4 more times over the next week, without explanation, and without addressing the changes on the [[Talk:Allan Nairn|talk page]].

===[[Death squad]]===
Another article in which Davenbelle & co. have uncritically presented supposed U.S. support of FRAPH as unambiguous, while failing to [[Wikipedia:Cite your sources|cite sources]], provide a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral perspective]], or [[Wikipedia:Resolving disputes|take steps to resolve the dispute]] other than wholesale [[Wikipedia:Revert#Explain your reverts|reversion]].

====May 11====
*00:07, 11 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Death_squad&oldid=13585889 reverts] my edits to say that FRAPH was "organized in mid-1993 with U.S. backing." No objective sources are provided to back up this claim, which is rather suspect considering U.S. restoration of Aristide in 1994.

====May 12====
*01:23, 12 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Death_squad&oldid=13594372 Same reversion] occurs with no explanation or discussion.

*06:42, 12 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Death_squad&oldid=13596956 Same].

*07:05, 12 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Death_squad&oldid=13605546 Same]. (keepin' this succinct)

===[[Isle of Youth]]===
Another illustrative example of Davenbelle's failure to [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|provide NPOV]] and his use of [[Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words|weasel words]].

====May 10====
*23:25, 10 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Isle_of_Youth&oldid=13532440 changes] my version of the article to say that Castro "allegedly" tortured people at the Isle of Pines prison, despite the testimony of high-profile figures like [[Huber Matos]] that they were abused. He does so four more times over the next two days.

===[[Suharto]]===
More summary reversion and POV.

====May 12====
*01:21, 12 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&oldid=13594423 reverts] my edits with no explanation to a version containing emotionally-charged language and POV such as "This tacit support of the United States government for the Suharto regime would remain quite firm throughout the terrible repression he inflicted on Indonesia..."

*06:47, 12 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&oldid=13596693 Same.]

*06:51, 12 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&oldid=13680929 Again]. The same is done thrice on May 15th.

===[[Amy Goodman]]===
More uncritical acceptance of the particular subject of this article's POV.

====May 12====
*01:24, 12 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Amy_Goodman&oldid=13594353 reverts] my edits to a view that accepts, without question, Goodman's allegations of U.S. support for Indonesian anti-independence militias despite the '93 weapons sales cutoff and Chevron complicity in the Nigerian Army's killing of two villagers.

*06:41, 12 May 2005
**Unexplained revert; same story.

*07:55, 12 May 2005
**Revert again. Does not discuss justification on [[Talk:Amy Goodman|talk]].

===[[Contras]]===
Davenbelle helps his buddy [[User:Viajero|Viajero]] to inject POV backed by [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|unreliable sources]] into the intro.

====May 15====
*03:18, 15 May 2005
**Davenbelle [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Contras&oldid=13724729 reverts] my edits to change the intro to say that any resistance to the Contras brought "brutal retribution" and provide an "objective" link to a site that describes itself as "An International Guide to CIA Death Squads" as well as one by [[William Blum]], who has been been a radical critic of U.S. interventions since WWII.

*03:58, 15 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Contras&oldid=13733767 Same.]

====May 18====
*08:55, 18 May 2005
**[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Contras&oldid=13899219 Same.] No explanation.

===Slight suspicions of sockpuppetry===
I'd request an admin check on whether [[User:Davenbelle|Davenbelle]], [[User:Viajero|Viajero]], [[User:Mel Etitis|Mel Etitis]], and [[User:NoPuzzleStranger|NoPuzzleStranger]] share any accounts, although it could just be that they're comrades in POVerizing.

===On [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Trey_Stone]]===
The sockpuppetry issue that Davenbelle brings up was resolved a while back, as was the vandalism, which I have not done in some time. I admit to being somewhat harsh in my arguing and reversions on this project, but I sometimes have difficulty assuming good faith with users who seem so clearly guided by ideology.

== Evidence presented by [[User:Davenbelle]] ==

[[User:Trey Stone|Trey Stone]] has been reverting many editors who've challenged his editing on many articles in spite of their pointing out that he fails to [[Wikipedia:Cite sources|cite his sources]] and falls back on [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]]. He often discards all other edits to articles, contravening [[Wikipedia:Ownership of articles]]. His talk and edit summaries are often quite [[Wikipedia:Profanity|uncivil]].

* See also: [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Trey Stone]] recently opened by [[User:Viajero|Viajero]] and endorsed by myself and many others. I will by adding commnents to this RfC concerning conduct of Trey Stone's that is not directly related to Trey Stone's statements concerning me in this arbitration case.

* I have structured the presentation here ''by article'' for clarity; I will recast it in strict chronological order upon request.

** Followed by some [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ARequests_for_page_protection&diff=13647491&oldid=13646783 nice language] from Trey Stone: "I have fucking explained myself again and again, but you kids can't fucking compromise on anything less than anti-American tinged POV." (nb: this posted ''after'' this case has been accepted.)

=== [[Allan Nairn]] ===

* [[Talk:Allan Nairn|Talk]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&action=history history]

Trey Stone has been editing [[Allan Nairn]] frequently since April 25; [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&diff=12777711&oldid=12777668 1st edit] with the edit summary: "NPOVing this sorry article". [[User:Viajero|Viajero]] and [[User:Mel Etitis|Mel Etitis]] have challenged Trey Stone's edits on the Talk page, asking for citations to back up his assertions, but he refuses to [[Wikipedia:Cite sources|cite his sources]] and tries to argue his point of view using [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]]. I became aware of this dispute after reading and endorsing the [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Trey Stone|RfC re Trey Stone]]. After reading the article and talk and noting that Trey Stone's most recent revert had broken the [[WP:3RR|three revert rule]], I reverted his edits as detailed here:

==== May 10 ====

* 23:33, May 10, 2005
** I [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&diff=13532634&oldid=13529594 reverted] edits by Trey Stone to last version by Mel Etitis.

** Trey Stone [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&diff=13533025&oldid=13532603 reverts] to his last version with no edit summary.

* 23:37, May 10, 2005
** Trey Stone blocked for 24 hours by [[User:Jdforrester|James F.]] for violating the [[WP:3RR|three revert rule]] on three articles: [[Death squad]], [[Allan Nairn]] (above revert is a 5th), and [[Isle of Youth]].

* 23:45, May 10, 2005
** I made a further [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&diff=13548713&oldid=13532634 edit] with the edit summary: "tidy" (added a few wiki-links, minor formatting, a spelling correction). My first attempt at saving this produced an edit conflict with Trey Stone's last revert. I checked history in another tab before deciding to save my edit over his &mdash; I regret not updating my edit summary to indicate that I was also reverting again. Here is the "revert + tidy" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Allan_Nairn&diff=13548713&oldid=13533025 diff].

Being on the CIA payroll at one point does not mean the agency endorses everything you do -- it's an ''intelligence'' agency for chrissakes. Chilean DINA chief [[Manuel Contreras|Contreras]] was accidentally paid once by the CIA while the U.S. cut off arms shipments to the country in 1976; and Noriega was on the payroll before, and we overthrew him in '90 (or '91, I can't remember.)

=== [[Suharto]] ===

* [[Talk:Suharto|Talk]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&action=history history]

The activity editing [[Suharto]] is more complex. A series of edits ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&diff=13126005&oldid=13125992], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&diff=13405789&oldid=13405160]) by Trey Stone and [[User:Meursault2004|Meursault2004]] over the spelling "Suharto" vs "Soeharto" involving global search-and-replace resulted in two image-links breaking. One of the broken images was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&diff=13405160&oldid=13390700 removed] by [[User:Cdc|Cdc]] and the other was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Suharto&oldid=13535952 lingering in a broken state].

----

* I endorse the evidence presented by [[User:Viajero|Viajero]]. &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Davenbelle|Davenbelle]]

==Evidence presented by [[User:Viajero]]==

Trey Stone's incivility, edit-warring, sockpuppetry is extensively documented [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Trey Stone]], including his many 3RR violations (no fewer than eight since the RfC was opened on 9 May 2005) and a bizarre faux "edit war" between him and at least one and possibly two of his ''own'' sockpuppet accounts. The RfC contains much material not included this Evidence page and vice versa; in fact, the RfC and the ArbCom evidence is largely complementary; there is little overlap, and I hope that the Arbitration Committee will at least take a brief look at the RfC and take it into account in its final decision. 

Here, I am going to address one issue not well covered on the RfC, Trey Stone's failing to [[Wikipedia:cite your sources|cite his sources]] and his reliance on [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]] which, in my opinion, is as grave as the matters listed above, but one that is more of a challenge to document, partly because one comes up against content issues.  In the example below, Trey Stone makes edits to an article, {{article|Allan Nairn}}, and is challenged on the talk page to justify his changes by first one editor then later a second. 

In the interest of readability and succinctness, I have restricted myself to one clearly defined section of the text, and I have have listed only the article edits and talk page comments that I feel are relevant. (All times UTC)

** Trey Stone makes a series of edits to this article; the first edit summary is '''"NPOVing this sorry article"''' . Among other edits, he changes this text:
::''In an article published in ''The Nation'' in 1994, Nairn broke the story of the US government's role in establishing and funding the Haitian paramilitary death squad, FRAPH (the Front for the Advancement and Progress of Haiti).''
:to this:
::''In an article published in ''The Nation'' in 1996, Nairn raised questions about possible links between the U.S. CIA, DIA, and the anti-Aristide death squad FRAPH (Front for the Advancement and Progress of Haiti). However, his report relies heavily on a single source, and the Clinton administration had publicly come out against the Haitian military regime of General Raoul Cédras, accused of supporting the group. Furthermore, the deposed Jean-Bertrand Aristide was reinstated as President of Haiti through U.S. military intervention in 1994.''

**Trey Stone modifies his version of the text to this:
::''In an article published in The Nation in 1994, Nairn claimed to have found a definitive link between the CIA and the establishment of FRAPH, a notoriously brutal death squad that terrorized supporters of deposed president Jean-Bertrand Aristide with approval from the military regime that ruled from 1991-1994. As the U.S. was instrumental in restoring Aristide to power in Haiti and forcing the resignation of the junta, Nairn's allegations are controversial, as they run contradictory to the stated policy and actions of the Clinton administration. His claims rely heavily on the testimony of Emmanuel "Toto" Constant, FRAPH's founder, who is currently serving time in Florida jail.

:As can be seen seen, he still fails to cite his sources and in no way addresses the concerns of the other editors.

===Conclusion===
Trey Stone is challenged to justify his edits, but instead of drawing on solid scholarship, he falls back on blustery, ''ad hoc'' argumentation to defend his position, and appears to believe that simply by repeating often enough that he has "justified his edits" that others will be convinced that in fact he has, but as the evidence above demonstrates, this is far from the case. He makes no effort to work towards a concensus on the talk page beyond stating his position (The issues have been the same with {{article|FRAPH}}), which deals with the same subject matter).

The Allan Nairn article is but one example of this kind of behaviour; more examples can be found in the page histories and on the Talk pages of [[Henry Kissinger]], [[Death squad]], [[Amy Goodman]], among others.

In summary, Trey Stone has been contributing since July 2004 and should now be intimately acquainted with Wikipedia culture but appears incapable or unwilling to enter into the collaborative spirit of the enterprise and engage in concensus-building over controversial topics.
