:First of all, you've already immediately broken ANI rules by not alerting me on my Talk Page, but I have to point out the numerous issues with the content of your report as well.
:You were blocked for consistent disruptive editing and edit warring behaviour (not because of "drama"). The accusation of a single user that I was the sole reason the political position was removed from the page's infobox holds no weight whatsoever, and isn't even true. Every source that has been used to justify the inclusion of a political position on that page's infobox was removed based on the ''merit of the sources'' and whether they were [[WP:OR]]-compliant (they weren't). The page didn't "originally" say "Center-left to left-wing", that was content added ([[WP:BOLD|boldly]]) by you specifically and reverted several times by multiple different editors: ([https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic-Republican_Party&diff=prev&oldid=1294454772] [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic-Republican_Party&diff=prev&oldid=1295141683] [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic-Republican_Party&diff=prev&oldid=1296445338] [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Democratic-Republican_Party&diff=prev&oldid=1298489358])
:It was always a completely irrelevant argument whether or not the party supported the French Revolution, as that's a textbook example of [[WP:SYNTH]]. As for your claim that you said that you'd "be happy to track down another source so long as I had the assurance Glowstone would be willing to accept the information if properly sourced", that's blatantly false, your exact words were: {{tq|But since you don't like the citation, how about YOU find one that you're happy with?}}, which I replied to by citing the [[WP:ONUS]] policy and you responded, verbatim, {{tq|Where are my assurances I'm not being sent on a wild goose chase by a guy who will always find an excuse to dismiss ANY source? None, right.}} A pointed ''accusation'' that any source you provide would be dismissed by me, a blatant violation of the [[WP:AGF]] behavioural guideline, not, as you put it, "mention[ing] on the talk page [that you]'d be happy to track down another source".
:There's no requirement to participate in talk page discussions before reverting [[WP:BOLD]] edits, however, after you borderline accused me of vandalism from the outset with a new section on the talk page: {{tq|At what point does repeatedly and unilaterally removing cited information for no apparent reason consitute vandalism?}} I engaged civilly in the discussion and pointed out the problems with your arguments for inclusion whilst you repeatedly accused me of bad faith.
:That's all I have to say for now. <span style="text-shadow:5px 5px 25px Black;font-family:Courier;font-weight:bold;font-size:110%">[[User:GlowstoneUnknown|<span style="color:#f44">– GlowstoneUnknown</span>]] [[User talk:GlowstoneUnknown|<span style="color:#f9f">(Talk)</span>]]</span> 17:15, 4 July 2025 (UTC)
