User:Alvestrand/Opis notes

The main problem with Battle of Opis and friends seems to be that User:Ariobarza has very strong opinions, very bad understanding of sourcing, and gets angry when people don't agree with him.
There's also Nepaheshgar (talk · contribs) and Khoikhoi (talk · contribs) picking a fight with ChrisO (talk · contribs), but they were quiet while Ariobarza was on a rampage.
