Pinging @

@Shoy: I would caution you on your accusations of edit warring. Edit warring is a serious issue and accusing regular editors of edit warring for no reason is counter-productive and 'cries wolf' at best, and a baseless attack on character at worst. 8.20.65.4 (talk) 12:06, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You jumped into an article where there were 3 reverts in 24 hours and reverted again. Call it what you want. shoy (reactions) 12:14, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@

WP:FORUM but I won't remove it since I've already pinged you. 8.20.65.4 (talk) 12:56, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

@Shoy: I have trimmed and re-titled the section. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:35, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Shoy: WTTG, WTOP-FM, and WJLA-TV are all notable Washington media outlets; this was well-reported in the DC area. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:46, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
