Hey, I noticed you were appalled that ] is now a "guideline". It simply doesn't have a clear consensus, and I just put together an arbitration case at ] that shows misconduct in the way a few users have been misconstrewing more than just one guideline.

Revision as of 05:19, 1 October 2006
I will respond to comments on this page unless requested.
Incivility
Hi. I have a history of being uncivil; see my talk archives for more. Unfortunately, a puppet master (Pnatt), when controlling User:Myspaceaddictaust, brought out the worst in me. I sincerely regret my action.
- Stop it!! Do you want me to stay on WikiSocial or not?? Superju6 06:04, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- um, yes. Calling someone a sockpuppet-master is not intended to be an insult. Pnatt, despite your good contributions to WikiSocial, on[REDACTED] you still contine to abuse WP:SOCK in order to evade the blocks the community has put on you. If you want to negotiate, put ONE (just one) unblock request on your original user page. -- Chris chat edits essays 12:53, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Recently, User talk:John4grey has been persistently adding OR to the MySpace article. I have tried my very, very best to not lose my cool, and so far I think i'm doing a good job. If you disagree, tell me so I can better myself. -- Chris chat edits essays 01:43, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Chris, explain to me how this is less OR than mine? Why was this not deleted by you or others? “In addition, the MySpace community is growing. New features have been put on the page, such as video and song sharing, through streaming media. The unprecedented amount of MySpace users joining daily due to these new features, and its media publicity, means that more users are online at any given time. This increase in usage sometimes slows down the servers and may result in a "Server Too Busy" error message for some users who are on at peak hours, "Sorry! an unexpected error has occurred. This error has been forwarded to MySpace's technical group.", or a variety of any other error messages throughout the day.” I think it is okay, but by “your rules” it isn’t. Why is it still there, man?
I utterly disagree with you, Chris. And I am thoroughly right on this issue. But dude, forget it! I will not edit the myspace page anymore. You seem very distressed when there is no need to be. And I truly hope things work out for you. By the way, I wasn’t calling you dumb or anything, in fact I think you are really bright, though misguided. (And degrees mean nothing in most ways.) My point was just that you are young and because of that less experienced in the nuances of writing. (You can delete this if you want after you read it, by the way. It is for you to read and not the world. ) My advice to you is to calm down a bit inside. I was once just like you. And I almost got myself into major trouble back then—stuff you don’t get out of. Your buttons are easy to see and hence push. You let others prevail when you lose it, like you are close to doing right now. Lastly, it isn’t "game over" if you messed up and lost it here before. You caught it before it went too far. When you are 21 nothing here will matter, I promise. Anyhow, good luck with it all, under it all.
--John4grey 03:12, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Cheers, John
- Actually, that paragraph is OR too. I'll reword it/find sources tomorrow. -- Chris chat edits essays 03:16, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- J4g was wrong; don't worry. His additions were PoV and OR. ju66l3r 03:31, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
I appreciate the Barnstar. I'll keep on keeping on to keep things on track. Thank you. ju66l3r 18:24, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I hereby award you The Editor's Barnstar for your diligence in maintaining the OR policy on the MySpace article. Dansiman 01:49, 26 September 2006 (UTC) |
- Thanks man!

Of course I will, but I've got a situation right now. --Mac
Notability
Actually, I think the original description on the page was a very good description of current practice, and the changes misleading. I've started a discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Notability. Ziggurat 00:36, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Userbox
Thanks. You're right, I'm not a huge userbox fan (nor opponent, either). Unfortunately, I think the content of your box is correct, however. · j e r s y k o talk · 14:40, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Mandala Article Deletion
Hi, the mandala article deleted as a copyvio was written by me. Should authorship be researched before such an abrupt deletion? According to wiki guidelines, "In order to contribute, you therefore must be in a position to grant this license , which means that either you own the copyright to the material, for instance because you produced it yourself." Which is exactly the case. Why then the deletion?-- Peter
If you agree to license the text under the GFDL, then state that on your original web page and we'll put it back in. -- Chris chat edits essays 05:10, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
Any tips with explanation or example as to exactly how to do this?-- Peter

Arbitration relating to notability
Hey, I noticed you were appalled that WP:NN is now a "guideline". It simply doesn't have a clear consensus, and I just put together an arbitration case at Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration#Harrassment.2C_talk_page_vandalism.2C_and_non-consensus_changes_to_guideline that shows misconduct in the way a few users have been misconstrewing more than just one guideline. I would greatly appreciate your input. Fresheneesz 05:19, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
