I have certain principles governing this talk page which I expect you to adhere to if you post here. (This talk page is my "territory", (although I acknowledge it's not really mine, it's the community's) and I assume janitorial responsibility for it.

If leaving a new message, please see "...click here to leave me a message" notice above.
If posting a reply to a comment, please place your new comments underneath the comment you are replying to.
Please indent your posts with ":" if replying to an existing topic (or "::" if replying to a reply).
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
I will generally respond to comments on this Talk page that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page; you may want to watch this page until you are responded to.
I prefer a clean talk page and will delete old messages after a reasonable period of time. The history tab will show you a complete list of all past comments if you are interested.
Comments such as these are appreciated and welcome: constructive criticism in the spirit of being helpful and editing collegially; corrections as appropriate and necessary in the spirit of being helpful and editing collegially.
Comments such as these are not appreciated and are unwelcome: a barrage or onslaught of negatively-tinged comments that include, but are not limited to, demands for answers; unconstructive criticism in the spirit of being negative for negative's sake; templates placed in the spirit of retaliation or 'just because'; harassment; personal attacks.
If you want a reply to comments left here, please allow time for that to happen. In the case of possible contention or disagreement, I may need time to "cool down" and collect my thoughts (or just reply helpfully and wisely) before responding to talk page comments/questions. Please keep this in mind, and remember to act like the kind of adults we are all expected to emulate here at The Project.
I reserve the right to delete talk page comments or questions without answering them if I sense baiting, unneeded confrontation, hostility, inappropriate aggression, and/or misdirected anger - don't expect a response to these types of comments.
I realize I don't "own" this talk page, however, I reserve the right to tell you to not leave comments here if you have demonstrated a consistent lack of good faith toward me and/or continually leave nothing but negative and/or harassing comments on this talk page.
I may, without notice, refactor comments to put like with like, correct indents, or retitle sections to reflect their contents more clearly. If I inadvertently change the meaning of anything, please let me know so I can fix it.
Blatant vandalism will not be tolerated and will be removed on the spot.

Please comment on Talk:7 World Trade Center

Responding to RFCs

Remember that RFCs are part of Dispute Resolution and at times may take place in a heated environment. Please take a look at the relevant RFC page before responding and be sure that you are willing and able to enter that environment and contribute to making the discussion a calm and productive one focussed on the content issue at hand. See also Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment#Suggestions for responding.

Greetings! You have been randomly selected to receive an invitation to participate in the request for comment on Talk:7 World Trade Center. Should you wish to respond to the invitation, your contribution to this discussion will be very much appreciated! However, please note that your input will carry no greater weight than anyone else's: remember that an RFC aims to reach a reasoned consensus position, and is not a vote. In support of that, your contribution should focus on thoughtful evaluation of the issues and available evidence, and provide further relevant evidence if possible.

AIV report

Could you please explain why you consider the edits of User:67.190.9.122 to be vandalism? They seem to be normal edits to me. Qwyrxian (talk) 07:29, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Well, an IP removing references and code, reverting it back within seconds after receving warnings on the IPs talk page, and all without the use of an edit summary. All of that combined generally says "vandal" to me. Was I incorrect? (the IP was blocked for persistent vandalism) Lhb1239 (talk) 16:21, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

I saw information both removed and added, and it looked like it might have been on purpose. However, I don't know anything about the subject, so maybe I just wasn't interpreting the edits I saw correctly. I don't mind that another admin agreed with you that it was vandalism; I wasn't certain enough to act either way. Thanks for the answer and the vigilance! Qwyrxian (talk) 01:43, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

You're welcome. Honestly, I haven't decided yet whether I enjoy doing the anti-vandal thing or not. It seems like kind of a thankless job... And - I appreciate the inquiry. If you run across any edits I'm marking as vandalism and question whether they were actually vandalism or not, please bring it to my attention. I certainly am capable of making errors in that department! Lhb1239 (talk) 04:33, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Please comment on Talk:King of the Hill (soundtrack)

Mad Men, smoking

Hi. You recently removed a section about smoking but I've restored it (as a subsection of an earlier thread which could also be questionably forum-y). While my reply to the OP may not directly connect with improving the article, this may be revisited within that context. I think the topic is worthy of the talkpage since smoking features heavily in the show and is thereby mentioned in the WP article. You may not like the Question or the discussion, but censoring it only invites more of the same. Better to address it and let it be archived if no one else wants to weigh in. Respectively, -anonAlph 72.151.121.170 (talk) 20:48, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

I took it out again and it should not be replaced. The OP is a speculation about what message is being sent by the show creators/writers (see WP:CRYSTAL), the rest is about smoking on TV shows (see WP:NOTAFORUM). None of it has anything to do with improving the article. Please do not edit war over this. Lhb1239 (talk) 20:56, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

3RR on Mad Men discussion

Your recent editing history at Talk:Mad Men shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.
