Continued IP deletion of RS-supported text, against consensus[edit]

Despite two editors have discussed this and warned that it is not appropriate to delete RS-supported text (and the RS) based on personal belief being at odds with the RS, an IP continues to do so.

Against consensus, as well.

Two editors have discussed the issue with the IP. Both on its talkpage, and in edit summaries.

Yet the IP continues to delete text and the supporting RS. Based on, as the IP put it in an edit summary, personal belief which is at odds with the RS: "Listen, ... I can tell you we don't have proof ...").

As WP:VAND states, vandalism includes: "Sometimes referenced information or important verifiable references are deleted with no valid reason(s) given in the summary."

Such is the case here -- personal belief, at odds with the RS, does not permit one to do delete the text and RS ref. Especially over the objection of the other editors.Epeefleche (talk) 15:18, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The IP had done it again, just now. Without an edit summary giving a legitimate explanation. The text is supported by the RS Jews and the Olympic Games: sport: a springboard for minorities by Paul Yogi Mayer, published by Vallentine Mitchell (2004), ISBN 0-85303-451-6.
