Oooh! Bardy just posted this on WMCs Talk page.

William, this comment on ATren's Talk page is a clear breach of civility. The bolding is mine to highlight the problem sentences.
Somewhat patronising, but to answer your essential point:
Bardcom is engaged in a one-man campaign to remove the words British Isles from wiki. He is editing in bad faith, and a glance at his edits will show you this. Pretending otherwise is pointless. As the talk on his talk page makes clear,
Bardcom is not to be trusted: he keeps inexplicably missing text that he has actually responded to; he quotes the first sentence of the revert policy but somehow fails to read the second... all very odd, or rather, not odd at all
You wrote this before I posted the last warning, but this is particularly incivil and breaches WP:AGF. Can we agree that we are searching for a way to resolve the dispute, and that as part of it, we will remain civil and not engage in personal attacks? Thank you. --Bardcom (talk) 21:55, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

has anyone suggested just running a content RfC, and everyone agreeing to abide by the result?
The problem with that suggestion is that it relies on the parties in the dispute being "reasonable". My experience is that in any drawn-out dispute on Wikipedia, at least some of the disputants are not being reasonable, have no interest in being reasonable, and may not even be capable of being reasonable. Attempting to resolve such disputes reasonably is simply going to lead to burnout.
Sounds like WMC all right
