Forum:User pushing Horde POV while removing Alliance references

Forums: Village pump → User pushing Horde POV while removing Alliance references
(This topic is archived. Please do not edit this page!)

Through discussion on MMO-C I was made aware that Camp Taurajo page here on WP somehow calls its destruction "a massacre". I've became extremely interested in who added it in, because there's no such thing in game and in latest book we even get Baine's own confirmation that he considers what happened an honorable combat. Quick look over user's history shown that he's been routinely whitewashing Horde's position by removing negative and adding "positive" things about different events, while also removing information about Alliance motivation about this. According to some other user pages, some people noticed it too and user was involved in several edit wars. Can we please review and rollback what necessary and maybe block him from editing?

The user has not been editing since August 2012, and before that his last edit was in November 2011. Unless he's already been discouraged from further editing, I'll keep a close eye on his edits. --g0urra[T҂C] 15:35, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

I see a reference was placed in the article, which calls it a massacre, thought I'd place the source here as well.  [10-30] Honoring the Dead. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 08:48, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Please either reference source of "high number of civilian casualties" and "many with in the Horde" or tone down this propaganda again. Thanks. --Rowaasr13 (talk) 17:39, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

This isn't just one way. Some users push a biased Alliance POV.--SWM2448 19:29, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Those cases, of course, should be dealt with too, but in this particular thread I wish to concentrate on this particular case. --Rowaasr13 (talk) 12:46, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
