Poeticbent talk has taken a sabbatical from Misplaced Pages and may reply to your email query providing, that it is signed with your real name.

Usernames, names and IPs

If you did not want your real name present on the talk page, you could have removed it. Presence or lack of the real name (which is no secret to those who follow Polish corner of Misplaced Pages) is no excuse to post empty threats to users without even attempting to address the underlying concern - using multiple IPs to edit an article on the brink of an edit/revert war. Many users, including myself, are uncomfortable when an editor uses multiple accounts without a clear disclosure and explanation as to why it is needed. The post by Novickas was asking for such an explanation. Now would be a good time to give it. Renata (talk) 03:54, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I asked a question here. Looking forwards to your answer, M.K. (talk) 11:16, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
