Basically all of this user's edits have been edit warring over variations of American versus British spelling or edit warring over which unit (imperial vs. metric) comes first in an article. As hinted by their username, I think that this is a clear case of [[WP:NOTHERE]]. Any thoughts? --'''[[User:Rschen7754|Rs]][[User talk:Rschen7754|chen]][[Special:Contributions/Rschen7754|7754]]''' 04:07, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
:This appears to be a very young editor who needs to gain a little more maturity before they can be a productive editor. Their personal goals are a bit at odds with the encyclopedia's. That said, I'm not prepared to say they're not here to help the project, but, having interacted with them a little bit, there is a certain absence of cluefulness.

*'''Agreed'''. This seems to be an established pattern, and it's not a good one. Pretty much the last thing we need around here is another "style warrior" running around, especially when there's a weird nationalism bent to it, combined with a [[WP:NOTHERE|NOTHERE]]/[[WP:NOT#SOAPBOX|SOAPBOX]] "campaign" angle. (I'm thinking back to a similar combination in another editor, which turned into several years of disruption, four nearly back-to-back AEs, a topic ban, a broader topic ban, a block, an indef, and then user-talk editing revocation; we don't need another of those, and should just nip this in the bud before entrenchment occurs). I trust in good faith that the editor can be productive, but this "American metric promotionalism at all costs" shtick doesn't qualify. <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 11:27, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
