Maybe the person you are arguing with is a troll. Maybe they are a hothead. Maybe they are a reasonable person, who is confused on this one particular issue, or has a POV different from your own. No matter what the problem is, flaming is not going to solve it. First thing to do...

1. Lead by example.

If you are in an edit war, end it now. Be the first one to go to talk, ask for protection, or place a generous note on their talk page (try very hard to give a compliment for every criticism). Obey Policy. Always strive for wikiquette. Maintain Verifiability. Consider joining the Harmonious editing club. If things are out of control, move to the next step on conflict resolution. Never flame, try to get a rise out of somebody or get too emotional. This is only an encyclopedia, mind you. :)

2. Give the benefit of the doubt

Practically everyone here cares about quality articles. No one (outside of a vandal) intentionally puts inaccurate information into an article. It is almost certain that they meant well with their edit. If you have reverted already, try to look again to see if there is a better way to phrase things. One of the best parts of the Ireland Information Guide is the opportunity for constant improvement. Take this opportunity to make a quality change, write a necessary addition, or sometimes... move on to write an original article elsewhere. It’s very satisfying!

3. Seek other opinions

If you are unable to resolve your problems, despite having tried the above, you should seek input from other people. If the accuracy or neutrality of an article is in dispute, consider adding a dispute header (Ireland Information Guide:Accuracy dispute or Ireland Information Guide:NPOV dispute). Seek input from others by listing the article at Ireland Information Guide:requests for comment.
