Ever try to win an argument with a 14-year-old girl?
Just revert Lir's changes, if they're wrong.

Ban Lir. Or flood the page -- recruit enough sysops & old hands to watch that page (subject AND talk) around the clock simply wipe everything Lir adds.
Whenever this sort of stupid edit war happens, the outcome is that we lose an old hand and keep the moron -- let's not make that mistake again.
You'll need to do it in the middle of the night or sometime when she's offline, or she'll immediately re-revert them. Has anyone been reading her additions to the [[Lir]] page (not [[User:lir]] and to the rantings on her own page? I think she's in need of counseling.

I was operating on the assumption Lir was a 12-year-old girl, but her edits to "Wealth of the Nations" make me suspect she is actually much older than that. It would be easier to take Lir seriously if she would engage in dialog, and attribute her sources more readily.
