Spam

Hi Quartet! You seem to have a particular interest in ridding Misplaced Pages of spam.

I'm afraid you're mistaken in a number of your nominations - although not incorrect with at least one about them needing speedy deletion (just for other reasons).

Please would you read this page which explains about spam on Misplaced Pages and how to deal with it. You might also like to join the WikiProject on spam to help fight the good fight. You'd be very welcome!

Please be aware that when new users appear and immediately start a crusade against something on Misplaced Pages, other users tend to smell a point being made and may start looking into the possibility of sockpuppetry by a disgruntled user who already has an account. To avoid that happening, please follow guidelines and also consider broadening your editing.

Thanks and happy editing! 〈REDVEЯS〉 22:35, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Good stuff, and I thank you for the welcome. I realize that I won't be making many friends by nominating certain advertisements masquarading as articles for deletion - however I feel it will make Misplaced Pages a much more credible source of information that is untainted by corporate bias.

Thanks

Thanks for keeping an eye on my page. The fake "banned" tag on my talk page was funny - the last resort of a feeble mind. Yankees76 19:35, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

No worries. Quartet 00:36, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem

I know it seems like I might be jumping in on a long-running situation of whose history I have no knowledge, and that's true, but it's always good to have another pair of eyes look at a situation. Unfortunately, the internet is a place where no matter how much banning takes place, some people are always going to get through. Stay diligent and thanks for my responding kindly to the use of "you two" and not taking a side. I personally think you are by far a more competent editor on Misplaced Pages. If ever you see me getting in a situation like that, I expect you to do the same to me :-D. JHMM13 18:14, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Of course. I'd actually signed up to Misplaced Pages to start removing what I saw as corporate advertising on here, and got unintentionally dragged into this scenario, which to be honest, is a waste of my time - but not something I care to burn a blind eye to. Thanks for the kind words. Quartet 19:38, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Set up your email - there are users who need to contact you. Yankees76 03:46, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

(to Quartet) No problem. Please let me know if he returns or if you want your talk page semi-protected. BTW, the anon isn't vandalizing, he's just evading his block/stalking. See Misplaced Pages:Blocking policy#Evasion of blocks. Khoikhoi 00:18, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: Soybean

Thanks for the heads-up. --Steve Summit (talk) 21:08, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Anytime. --Quartet 21:12, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

You didn't violate 3RR, especially since I just changed WP:3RR as such  :-p --Deskana (talk) 02:40, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

No problem, that's what I'm around for. --Deskana (talk) 02:58, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
