TreasuryTag is currently, or is going to be, away from Misplaced Pages, between April 14 and April 19, 2009, and may not be able to respond immediately to queries. He may, however, edit a little unless he's using the splendid Wikibreak enforcer. |
Just to fix the formatting...

I think you accidentally collapsed more than you intended to on the thread about RNGs. I fixed it for you. APL (talk) 20:05, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Day of the Moon
Just what is "The article is written in standard English" supposed to mean as a edit summary? What's standard about referring to the recording of a television programme that is not shot on celluloid as "filmed." Please enlighten me. In "standard English." 12.88.4.102 (talk) 21:58, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- It is perfectly normal, in the English language, to refer to television programmes as being "filmed" and as using "footage." That is what I meant, fairly obviously. ╟─TreasuryTag►estoppel─╢ 22:08, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- Nothing obvious about it. Came across as snarky and rather insulting, frankly. 12.88.4.102 (talk) 22:09, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- May I politely suggest that if your English is not up to knowing that "filmed" was a perfectly acceptable word in that context, then you probably shouldn't be style-editing articles? ╟─TreasuryTag►ballotbox─╢ 22:17, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- May I politely inquire just how "filmed" is better than "recorded," when it's more accurate? And may I also politely inquire if this sort of passive aggression is the reason you've been blocked almost a dozen times? 12.88.4.102 (talk) 22:20, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
- It is not more accurate. "Filmed" is the standard English word for this sort of thing. And I guess this sort of passive aggression is also the reason I've been unblocked exactly the same number of times? ╟─TreasuryTag►assemblyman─╢ 23:06, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

User talk:KnowIG
Hello TreasuryTag, I'm not baiting this user, I had a good faith and a valid reason behind adding this Commons' activity. If you shall read whole paragraph, then you would know how this user abused me continuously by using different mediums like by mails, reverting mine constrictive edits, attacking on my talk page (both on Misplaced Pages and Commons). The message I left, was for the attention of concern users and admins (specially those who ain't on Commons), so that they might be in touch with current situation. If I just ignore this abusive message then how anybody would know about it. I think you should revert back your edit. Remember this (2.102.255.224) is a same series IP for which I was advised to contact his ISP, I really don't what kind of relevance you want, if this is a thing that I should keep Misplaced Pages and Commons separate then you should also remove edit of User: Sandstein from Commons, who gave reference of German Misplaced Pages. This is an interwiki problem and as many users/admins are involved in this, so I think everybody must be aware, thanks --Bill william compton 15:03, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- If you require attention from English Misplaced Pages admins then you should start a thread at WP:ANI. If you require attention from Commons admins then you should do the equivalent there. I will not be reverting my edit because I don't see any value to leaving a blocked editor inflammatory messages. ╟─TreasuryTag►pikuach nefesh─╢ 15:12, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- What's the need of ANI if there are admins who are responding on his talk page and they don't have any problem in this. What would be the result of ANI if this user is already blocked. Would you please tell me where on Misplaced Pages there is rule against keeping related discussions on the talk page of a blocked user? specially in the scenario when this blocked user using sockpuppets against any particular user.--Bill william compton 15:24, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- The proper way to attract the attention of administrators here on Misplaced Pages is to contact one personally or to start an ANI thread, not to leave a comment on a semi-relevant page which you know that at least one has on their watchlist. I am sorry if this disappoints you; I will not be reverting my edit and do not see any point in prolonging this discussion. ╟─TreasuryTag►First Secretary of State─╢ 15:25, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Talkback templates
There's really no need for you to trouble yourself with those templates. I have the AFD page on my watchlist. Hyperdoctor Phrogghrus (talk) 18:32, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Silence (Doctor Who)
Thank you for dropping the personal comments. I would ask you to go one stage further and cut out the sarcasm too. "This really isn't rocket science" is more apt to generate heat than light, as was the sarky little in the obscure redlink "Misplaced Pages:Doctor Who monsters are to be considered notable if they're central to the current seasons MythArc".
