Request Information

Where is the issue taking place?
On Georgy Zhukov and Talk:Georgy Zhukov
Who's involved?
What's going on?
For several months now (albeit with breaks), User:Legionas makes arbitrary additions and deletions of content. Everyone who disagrees with him gets instantly reverted and his (sourced) contributions.
User:Legionas seems to have a deep hate towards Zhukov. While it might be understandable at a personal level, Wikipedia is not a soapbox and must stick to WP:NPOV.
What is really funny is the fact that several months ago, I had a content dispute with Legionas about the fact whether Zhukov was considered as a brilliant strategist or not. Despite some obstination from his part, he finally had to give up. (see this thread). However, I would not like to repeat the same thing again, so I'm getting it up at MedCab.
What would you like to change about that?
History is a science, and therefore, it must use accurate, objective and sourced information. Treating sourced contributions as "fairytales" is at best not polite.
Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
No, the entire thing should be public.
