You can't be serious.Fladrif (talk) 17:24, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

{{unblock|I'm sorry and it will never happen again I thought simply asked the question about who User:Warnborough was, given the user's self-identification as a representative of the school. But, I see that could be interpreted as crossing the line. Sorry. It won't happen again. I think that I have otherwise been a highly responsible contributor who's added a lot of valuable content and documentation on a variety of topics.}} Fladrif (talk) 17:42, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

This is being discussed with the blocking admin. Standby. - auburnpilot talk 18:34, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s): Per discussion with the blocking admin and your assurances that you will not speculate or comment on the likely identities of other Misplaced Pages editors. Doing so will result in an immediate indef block. Request handled by: - auburnpilot talk 19:06, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you so much. Fladrif (talk) 19:13, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Warnborough

I just wanted to thank you again for the recent rewriting and reorganization. It really improved it. I feel pleased every time I look at it. I actually feel like the article is close to being done. There are about 4 small things that I may eventually suggest be changed, but overall it really seems to be shaping up. TimidGuy (talk) 18:48, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the kind words, and for your own input and perspective on the article. Fladrif (talk) 19:35, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Malnak

Thanks for correcting Adams. I mostly agree with you, but the context in which he mentions it would necessitate looking at the other decision to see why he's contrasting it in order to understand his point there. And thanks for correcting my point about the footnote. Don't know how I made the mistake. I think you're pretty weak on characterizing a point as "uncontested" that the document itself contradicts. And it was wrong to delete the attribution to Markovsky. I think we've both reached the WP:3RR limit. If you revert again you could be blocked. Gotta run.

NPA

This is enough. It is a blatant personal attack on another editor. You will restrict your comments to the editorial content of the article and make no further comments about other contributors per WP:NPA and WP:CIV or you will be blocked Dreadstar † 16:24, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

You have been previously cautioned by another administrator about making uncivil comments and threats directed to other users. It appears from this edit made yesterday that your personal attacks have continued, nonetheless. Please do not make it necessary for me to block you to prevent further disruptive activity. The talk pages are only for discussing article content, not attacking or impugning other editors. This is your final warning.  JGHowes  03:34, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
