Misplaced Pages

Thanks, but quite antagonistic

Thanks for the link to the personal attacks information. I suggest you respond in a less headstrong, confrontational manner in the future. "The next time you make a personal attack, you will be blocked for disruption," is extremely antagonistic and unlikely to elicit a welcome response. Please read the personal attacks section for more information on personal attack severity and suggestions on appropriate warnings.Stargnoc (talk) 06:28, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Re:PCH

Ok, I'll change my vote to endorsing the ban. Cheers, C.U.T.K.D 09:01, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Personal attack

"I see certain editors who never attempt to add anything positive or even neutral to the article. The only things they even attempt to add is negative information. They never try to find sources for neutral stuff or add anything that would put him in a positive light, only negative items. They try to minimize anything positive. You will find those same editors doing the same thing in other articles about people on the same end of the political spectrum as Hannity. It goes beyond coincidence." This poster marginalizes every individual who posts information about Sean Hannity that isn't favorable. I see this is a broad attack against many editors, who he arbitrarily labeled as "Hannity haters". Allowing lies and hypocrisy like this to go unchallenged is not in good faith. So I labeled this individual a "liar" and a "hypocrite" which I still feel are accurate labels, and I still believe posts like his are a greater threat to the sanctity of Misplaced Pages than mine ever were.

"New members are prospective contributors and are therefore Misplaced Pages's most valuable resource. We must treat newcomers with kindness and patience — nothing scares potentially valuable contributors away faster than hostility. It is difficult for a newcomer to be completely familiar with all of the policies, guidelines, and community standards of Misplaced Pages before they start editing. Even the most experienced editors may need a gentle reminder from time to time." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stargnoc (talk • contribs) 11:48, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Given the subject matter this guy zoomed in on, I can hear a duck or two quacking. Baseball Bugs carrots 12:14, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

• Yes, I said what you quoted. I'm sorry if calling a group who's sole contribution is to add any negative thing they can find as "haters" offends you. But apparently you have not read wp:blp and it would probably help you if you did so.

WP:BITE Daedalus I know you act in good faith - but perhaps a slightly lighter touch might elicit results more benficial to the editorial community perhaps? Amicaveritas (talk) 20:56, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I am so sorry

I am so sorry that one of my fellow administrators treated you so poorly, using both insults and thinly veiled threats to discourage your point of view. I am disturbed by the lack of response to your complaint, and I am disgusted in the way you were treated for making that complaint. I truly wish that Misplaced Pages administrators as a whole comported themselves with more respect and dignity. It whole matter really cheapens the idea that administrators should be impartial enforcers of consensus based policy. I truly think Misplaced Pages would be better off without those administrators who find themselves above policy.

Unfortunately there is an atmosphere of tolerance towards this sort of thing so there is absolutely nothing I can do that would not simply be reversed. I am sorry. Chillum 00:45, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: ANI report

I did read the discussion. It doesn't change my response in the slightest. If people stepped away from Giano in the first place, none of this extra drama would have happened. --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs 02:06, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Bishonen blocked

Just in case you were not aware, Jimbo Wales himself has blocked Bishonen for three hours for "Incivility unbecoming an admin" - hopefully that will act as a wake up call so we can avoid a repeat of this performance. Exxolon (talk) 02:31, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

User:MarkRomero

Hi. Because I've worked quite a bit with MarkRomero (talk · contribs), I am concerned about your edit here. Can you explain it and the related summary? Are you saying that MarkRomero (talk · contribs) is not now Voltin (talk · contribs)? Thanks! →Wordbuilder (talk) 14:08, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, not being party to the email messages, I'm still confused. Is MarkRomero now Voltin? Do I have reason to distrust either of these users? →Wordbuilder (talk) 19:07, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. I think I understand now. →Wordbuilder (talk) 22:04, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Bishonen's alternate accounts

Hiya Daedalus. It's cool, those accounts are just joke userpagers. GoodDay (talk) 22:56, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: Do me a favor

I just re-read the two edits I made which refer to your conflict with Bishonen, & I honestly don't see how they make any judgments about you. About Bishonen, I do comment at length about her state of mind. I also say her comment to you was offensive & insulting. And I state how I think other people view the situation -- which is why I suggest you let the matter drop. I would apologize for upsetting you, except I don't know how I did. -- llywrch (talk) 23:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Daedalus, I didn't mean to imply that you knew that. I was explaining to you that other editors knew that, assumed you did also, & that is why they responded in that manner. Maybe you should take the evening off, & do something not directly related to Misplaced Pages. -- llywrch (talk) 00:05, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Wikihounding

This is a warning about Misplaced Pages:Wikihounding. You need to leave Bishonen alone. Stop stoking the fires of that dispute. Jehochman 23:49, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Andy Wisne article

I have recreated th article. I have been through hell and back and I have buddys that have pges on hre simply for being a Notre Dame football player which is considered notable. I have listed referances from the LA Times to a first place story that was written about my bout with bipolar disorder, near death experiences, Notre Dame plaing days, and being an actor. Ihave no idea how one could consider that non substantial, irrelevent, or non notable unless there was a subjective viewpoint as this did not breach neautral point of view. I have ha\d to fight my ass off for everything I've gotten all I'm asking for is that this be understood as notable as it is.- There are millions of readers of the LA Times,and Millions of Notre Dame viewers.

If you find something wrong my userpage, or you want to change something, please let me know first, as a courtesy.

The right hand side of your user page is (in Internet Explorer at least) a mess - the objects float over each other and the objects below are obfuscated, which makes those on top difficult to read, I was going to try to fix this, but you have the above message on the page.--Alf 08:48, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Not surprising; there are a fair number of issues in there. Cheers, Jack Merridew 12:11, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
