===="Vandalism"====
I've been frequently accused of "vandalism" by three editors, by my count. The most prolific of them is currently (semi) retired, so most of the entries are from my early 'Wiki career'. In one these cases the editor really went after me with a machine gun: 26 in just about an hour. Some of diffs are presented below:
*It's "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wilhelm_Bittrich&type=revision&diff=708557428&oldid=708554158 vandalism]" to remove sources not used for citations, especially if they are [[WP:SELFPUBLISH]] and/or come from non [[WP:RS]] <s>right-wing</s> neo-Nazi publisher [[Nation Europa]]. In [[Wilhelm Bittrich]].
*"[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Otto_Kittel&diff=prev&oldid=705577665 Unfounded claim] that [[Franz Kurowski]] is not [[WP:RS]]. In [[Otto Kittel]].
*The content, uncited from Mar 2015, was apparently [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hugo_Primozic&diff=prev&oldid=707331879 "vandalized"], then what's the point of going in and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hugo_Primozic&type=revision&diff=707336691&oldid=707331879 adding citations and sources]? In [[Hugo Primozic]].
*It's "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Michael_Wittmann&type=revision&diff=706076818&oldid=705531951 vandalism]" to remove mythology from [[Franz Kurowski]] in the article about the "[[panzer ace]]" and "the hero of all the Nazi fanboys",<ref>{{cite book | last = Zaloga | first = Steven | authorlink = Steven Zaloga | year = 2015 | title = Armored Champion: The Top Tanks of World War II |___location = Mechanicsburg, PA | publisher = Stackpole Books | isbn = 978-0-8117-1437-2 | ref = harv }}</ref> [[Michael Wittmann]].

*Excellent RS works, Florian Berger, (of the "Selbstverlag (sefl-published) Florian Berger" imprint and the [[Rkiwira]] fame), and Günther Fraschka, with ''Knights of the Reich (sic)'', with [[Gordon Williamson (writer)]] for good measure: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Herbert_Gille&type=revision&diff=698680255&oldid=698630359 "fixed vandalism"].

*Also Alman: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hans-Detloff_von_Cossel&diff=prev&oldid=698680833 "vandalism"] in Jan 2016.

Both in [[Hans-Detloff von Cossel]].
Line 20 ⟶ 51:
*In February 2016, editor restores a speculative statement, which disparages the subject of the article and has been challenged since 2012 ("...caused him to be rejected by many of his comrades during, but particularly after the war"), and calls it [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alfred_Schwarzmann&type=revision&diff=705577826&oldid=705573940 "restoring vandalism"]. The edit took on a second try [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alfred_Schwarzmann&type=revision&diff=708914649&oldid=708897990 in March]. In [[Alfred Schwarzmann]].

**All of these labels were in violation of policy, BTW; pls see: [[WP:VANDNOT]]. And a pertinent aside: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&curid=5137507&diff=730419190&oldid=730419182 Not vandalism].

=====''Vandal's Cross of the Iron Cross''=====
I award myself the Vandal's Cross of the Iron Cross in Gold with Swords and Diamonds ({{lang|de|''Vandalekreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes in Gold mit Schwertern und Brillanten''}}), for achieving, in just two days, three (3) vandalism labels; one (1) pushing-the-envelope label; and one (1) POV label, further distinguishing myself:
 
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Erwin_Rommel&type=revision&diff=722845293&oldid=722819529 “restore vandalism”]. In [[Erwin Rommel]].
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AK.e.coffman&type=revision&diff=722863387&oldid=722842838 "Please refrain from deleting the Wehrmachtbericht wording. I consider removal without consensus vandalism."]. In my [[User_talk:K.e.coffman/Archive/2016/May#Wehrmachtbericht|Talk page]].
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Erich_von_dem_Bach-Zelewski&type=revision&diff=723204650&oldid=723201864 “no consensus regarding your POV”]. In [[Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski‎]].
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Peacemaker67&curid=33719696&diff=723206481&oldid=722788813 "He/she is pushing the envelope in my opinion”], in a MILHIST coord' Talk page.
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Erich_von_Manstein&diff=prev&oldid=723226215 “You guys don't know what you are doing here. Sorry I can't agree to this vandalism.”] Co-nominated with {{u|Diannaa}}. In [[Erich von Manstein‎]].
 
===="Deletionism"====
I'm working towards a Deletionist's Cross of the Iron Cross.
*In ''[[Talk:Schutzstaffel/Archive_5#I_can_almost_smell_the_GA_icon...|I can almost smell the GA icon...]]'': "I strongly oppose those mass deletions proposed by K.e.coffman. One cannot explain the performance of the Waffen-SS in Russia in merely two paragraphs." From an editor who shortly thereafter was topic banned from World War II subjects. Another editor comments: "As a general comment, the coverage of the Waffen SS is clearly excessive for this top-level article."
 
*In ''Mass removal of uncited or poorly cited material at [[5th SS Panzer Division Wiking]]'': "[[User_talk:K.e.coffman/Archive/2015/December#Mass_removal_of_uncited_or_poorly_cited_material_at_5th_SS_Panzer_Division_Wiking| I recommend you just restrict yourself to making the language more neutral where necessary"]], as well as {{tq|If you take this sort of action on articles on my watchlist, expect to be reverted and asked to provide ''reliable sources that contradict what is in the article''}} -- right, because it's not a completely impossible thing to do.
*Editor [[User_talk:K.e.coffman/Archive/2016/June#Nominations_of_articles_on_Knight.27s_Cross_recipients_for_deletion|chastises me for "deletionism"]] while providing no valid arguments as to why the AfDs should not proceed:
**"That type of behaviour is '''deplorable''',{{POV statement}} and '''not appropriate''' on ''en WP''"{{clarify}}
Line 40 ⟶ 78:
**"Your tagging is clearly linked to your text and source '''deletion and nomination behaviour'''"{{Dubious}}
**"Some editors{{Weasel inline}} on ''en WP'' take a '''very dim view''' of deletionism, of which I am afraid your current behaviour smacks."
 
=====Special mention: "Panzer aces"=====
*Not directed at me specially, but at an article that I was heavily involved with: [[Kurt Knispel]]. From the Talk page and via edit summaries:
:*16 July 2016: {{tq|Reverted good faith edits by 82.9.237.59 (talk): Copyvio http://warthunder.com/en/news/855-Special-Kurt-Knispel-the-Tank-Legend-en/}}
:* 30 August 2016: {{tq|In effect, he is notable for being the "tank ace" with the most kills. I'd add this to the lead paragraph, except that the German article lacks a source}}.
:* 18 October 2016 {{tq|Most of the information appears to have been deleted. this was most likely erronious (''sic'') or malicious.}}
:* 16 November 2016: {{tq|What happened to all the content ? There used to be a lot of information here about his military career, unconventional attitude to military discipline etc... why has it been deleted?}}
:* 4 December 2016: {{tq|The stories about Knispel being a rebel are all over the internet but are almost entirely unsupportable. They credit him with everything short of X-ray vision and Daniel Boone shooting prowess. (...) I have yet to read anything credible which backs these claims up and I'm pleased to see they have not made it into this article.}}
:* 9 March 2017: {{tq|Restoring page after severe edit warring and mass deletions without consensus. Almost entire page was deleted}}.
:*11 March 2017: Editor restores material with the edit summary: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kurt_Knispel&type=revision&diff=769873952&oldid=769858104 "Restoring article which was almost completely deleted without consensus. EDIT WARRING. MORE THAN 3 EDITS IN 24 HOURS"] (caps in the original).
:*11 March 2017: Apparently not being aware of what [[WP:edit warring|edit warring]] is, the editor then leaves a warning on my Talk page: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AK.e.coffman&type=revision&diff=769874341&oldid=769845062 diff].

The said "canvassing" occurred at [[WP:RSN]], which presumably exists for such purposes. :-)
 
===="You're not from around here"====
This sections include the general references of being "the other" whose contributions are questioned and are generally not welcome. Ironically, I've been accused of being ''both'' "anti-German" and from "de WP", allegedly trying to import the apparently stricter guidelines as to sourcing & NPOV (i.e. this editor been asked since 2013 to [[User_talk:MisterBee1966/Archive_6#Helden_der_Wehrmacht|Please stop pushing this Nazi publication "Helden der Wehrmacht..."]].). Here are some highlights:
 
;[[Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Hyacinth Graf Strachwitz/1|GAR:''Der Panzergraf'']] 4 +1 (bonus) = 5
Line 93 ⟶ 149:
**"remarkable disdain for anything ''foreign''" ('''anti-Germanism''')
**"remarkable disdain for anything ''on-line'' (said online sources include fan pages http://www.luftwaffe.cz/, http://www.luftwaffe39-45.historia.nom.br/ases/ases.htm, http://www.ww2.dk/lwoffz.html -- triple bonus points)
[[File:Leighton-God_Speed!.jpg|thumb|upright|I allegedly believe that the Allied soldiers were "[[User_talk:Peacemaker67/Archive 16#contrary editors|holy warriors on a noble crusade"]].]]
**"His myopic view is that (...) the American and British soldiers were holy warriors on a noble crusade beyond reproach" (never said such a thing, bonus points)
**"as any researcher with half a brain will know" ('''you're not from around here''')
**"it is obviously a anti-German grudge he holds" ('''anti-Germanism''', times two)
**" I just wish ''we'' can find a way to muzzle him and stop his arbitrary vandalism" ('''vandalism''', plus bonus points for suggesting that the OP and the recipient ''together'' look for a way to "muzzle" me)
**"I believe if he had his way every German biography would be (...) written in a tone reminiscent of the very poor military literature of the 50s and 60s" (I'm very curious what ''that'' would look like)
**"Its a sad day when (...) the ''rest of us'', acting in good faith, are held to ransom" (bonus points)
**"highly idiosyncratic bar at a height far higher than WP does" ('''you're not from around here''')
Line 111 ⟶ 167:
*"I'm sorry? You're saying that ...? How exactly does that work? ... I think you're confused about what we're discussing here." (Multiple "you"s while questioning my competence & '''you are not from around here'''; also see: [[WP:ACCUSE|Accusations]])
*"Your relationship to Smelser et al begs the question, given your promotion of them throughout WP, including through the creation of this article and the article on Smelser." ('''[[WP:COI]]''' bingo! 10 points.)
*"This flagrantly fails WP:ORG". (Bonus points for the ORG failure being especially '''flagrant'''.)
*"Assayer, your tagteam support of K.e.coffman is becoming highly predictable." ('''[[WP:TAGTEAM]]''' bingo! 10 points)
*"Your argument just doesn't stack up against GNG, where is the requirement is "significant coverage in multiple reliable sources" (Bonus points for ostensibly quoting from [[WP:GNG]] where such language does not exist.)
*"FWIW, this article came to my attention so quickly because K.e.coffman immediately started linking the article to the publisher fields in multiple articles on my watchlist". ('''[[Wikipedia:Findlink]]''' bingo! + '''campaigning'''; 10 points.)
*"That is how ''we'' test notability on WP." ('''You're not from around here'''.)
*"Whether referring to editors as a tag team is uncivil or not depends on whether the claim can be substantiated or not." (Bonus points for unsubstantiated insinuations; see: [[WP:ASPERSIONS|Aspersions]].)
Line 123 ⟶ 179:
*"Being mindful of [[WP:NOTADVERTISING]], do they really deserve a Wikipedia article?" (Not sure how to classify this as the suggestion that I created a promotional article is far fetched. 10 points.)
*"Seriously? So Fedorowicz only selects those German veterans that want to write revisionist and apologist books, and if a veteran's draft isn't revisionist and apologist enough they will not publish it?"
::*Getting into off-topic territory, but a good quote nonetheless. But I suspect that the answer to this question is "No, they would most likely ''not'' publish it". See the poetic/victim-of-history titles at [[J.J. Fedorowicz Publishing#Select publications]]: "Estonian Vikings"; "Many Nations, One Motto"<ref>I assume that author meant the SS motto, an article on which conveniently exists: [[Meine Ehre heißt Treue]]</ref>; "Tragedy of the Faithful"; etc.
{{reflist-talk}}
*Supplementary round, via [[Wikipedia:Files_for_discussion/2016_December_16#File:Cover_art_of_the_The_Myth_of_the_Eastern_Front_book_by_Smelser_and_Davies.jpg|Files for discussions on the book cover]] of ''[[The Myth of the Eastern Front]]'' by the same Smelser:
Line 136 ⟶ 192:
:*"The coverage in the source is shallow and incidental"
:*"That isn't WP:SIGCOV by any standard"
'''Bottom line''': Creating an essay [[WP:IDONTLIKERONALDSMELSERIDONTLIKESMELSER&DAVIES]] may not be such a bad idea. :-)
 
===="Ax-grinding"====
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Erich_Hartmann&type=revision&diff=846669912&oldid=846131167 "boring npov ax grinding, non contributory"] (?). In [[Erich Hartmann]].
*Extended commentary on my problematic behaviour, especially as it relates to a heavily POV and dubious article on [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Theodor_Scherer&oldid=704337459 Theodor Schere, 2015 version]:
:*"He have no interest in building the military history encyclopedia, and is here to just deleting information and push for his own agenda..." ('''Deletionism''')
:*"...he is calling his 'friends' (such as ÄDA - DÄP, sometimes Kierzek and others) and start accusing editors, who disagree with him, admirer for the 'neo-nazi'" ('''Tag-teaming''')
:*"Even so if we take him serious, what he call neo-nazi publisher, surely there is stuff that's strictly factual like organizational data or movements, awards etc., is unlikely to be tainted?" ('''Baby, bathwater''')
:*"This must stop." ('''Vandalising''')
:[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APeacemaker67&type=revision&diff=741750590&oldid=741675491 link]. This editor apparently created an account solely to comment on my editing. Another admiring post from the same editor:
:*"So Nick-D have totally embraced K.e.coffman and started working together to remove as much as possible military history of Nazi Germany from Wikipedia. Introducing several reasons, such as questionable numbers, nazi propaganda, dubious, intricate detail, he is not noticable and so many no time to write." ('''Tag-teaming + deletionism''')
:*"He always is calling his 'friends' (those who have total sympathy for him and his efforts to eredicate information about military history of Nazi Germany), to make sure he wins everytime!" (Yet more '''tag-teaming''')
:*"He is still adding crappy or NPOV prose on his page; making sure editors are marked as nazi apologist." ('''Nazi-hunting''')
