| Anthony cfc, | |||
| You really should not police others until you understand policy. When you contact the next alleged offender, please cite a link to the policy to them so that we can check that you are enforcing an appropriate item. I recommend that you start reading by reading ]. If you enjoy RC Patrol, then by all means, stay there, but you mustn't drive people away by incorrectly stating Misplaced Pages policy. | |||
| True, there is a lot to learn. But practice on your own turf first, before you start to drive away editors. --] 20:29, 14 March 2006 (UTC) | |||

Hello, stranger!
Hi, Arcticocean,
No, nope, nah, nyet, it's not going to work. Go back to your former name! You know us long-time editors don't adapt well to changes, especially small ones.
Any way, in case you have indeed transitioned to a new identity, I hope I'll run into you on this project in the future (in a positive way, I mean). Just spend some time working on some subject that brings a smile to your face. And stay away from noticeboards. Take care, Liz 06:00, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
