I have left a message for Netoholic warning him that I will be blocking him if he doesn't stop "refactoring" various talk pages where he is being criticized, citing [[Wikipedia:Refactoring]] and [[Wikipedia:Remove personal attacks]].
The message I left was here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Netoholic#Warning_re:_refactoring
Thanks, Brian (Bcorr)

His actions on the VfD page and the pages listed there can only be considered vandalism. Repeated deletions of VfD headers, and repeated deletions of pages listed on the VfD page is vandalism. Non-consensus mass moving of pages is vandalism. Repeated deletions of other people's discussions is vandalism.

I'd unblocked him before you sent this. And it didn't involve running or slavering.
Netoholic, since his first few days on Wikipedia, has been nothing but
disruptive.
I don't think that is a fair summary. Netoholic is not a troll acting in bad faith. He believes he is improving the VfD system. In my opinion, he's going about that the wrong way, but his edits can not be classed as purely disruptive.
