Something like that Gleb replied to James_Miller with a somewhat ridiculous assertion along with:
Do you consider my credibility as an academic historian to be evidence?
I replied that he had greatly damaged his credibility with his assertion. At which point Gleb flipped out about ad hominem.
Richard Kennaway has posted about an edit war on the wiki. Richard, thank you.
Unfortunately, I've only used the wiki a little, and don't have a feeling for why the edit history for an article is inaccessible. Is the wiki broken or has someone found a way to hack it? Let it be known that hacking the wiki is something I'll ban for.
VoiceofRa, I'd like to know why you deleted Gleb's article. Presumably you have some reason for why you think it was unsatisfactory.
I'm also notifying tech in the hope of finding out what happened to the edit history.
