Help with user page

The easiest way to copy what I have going would be to go to my page and click edit. Copy the code and modify it to fit your needs. If you need any help, leave another message and I'll try to assist. Morphh 1:21, 07 August 2009 (UTC)

Karl Rove

I've rolled back your edits. You are just cutting. This is not the way to go forward, and reeks of a POV hack job. You have to go through each section and try to find sources, and ask other people if they know sources. You're new here, so perhaps you don't realise that consensus building and trying to source material there is very important. Please look at each section carefully and look to see if any of it is backed up. A lot of it I suspect is. Use google books especially to find material. I'm not giving you a warning, as I think it's better than you get a chance to understand how wikipedia works.VsevolodKrolikov (talk) 02:32, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Make sure you read WP:BLP. This will help guide you when editing biographies of living people. Morphh 2:59, 07 August 2009 (UTC)

August 2009

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Your recent edit removed content from Karl Rove. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

I fear that you will find heavy sailing with those changes

You are removing substantial content that appears to be sourced. You will certainly need to gather a bit of support, and make compelling wp:edit summaries to get them to stick.- sinneed (talk) 03:25, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The recent edit you made to Karl Rove constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to remove content from articles without explanation. Thank you. - sinneed (talk) 03:26, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Templates

Malke 2010, not sure what template your looking to place, but here is helpful tool that lists them by category. Morphh 1:33, 09 August 2009 (UTC)

Your edits

This is not acceptable. Nor is this. Nor this. Also, refactoring other people's postings on talk pages to advance your point is seriously frowned upon. Any further examples of attacking other contributors or re-factoring talk pages will see you blocked. Thankyou, Black Kite 08:25, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

My edits are just fine, thank-you for asking.Malke 2010 (talk) 10:33, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

• As for your comments on my talk page, I did look at the Archive you linked. Apart from the fact that all those diffs are at least three weeks old, all I see there is Jusdafax getting frustrated; one or two of his postings are borderline incivil (he calls you "pompous" at one point), but most of his comments are about your edits, not yourself. There is nothing as egregious as your posts that I linked above. In any case, claiming that "soneone else is also incivil" is no excuse for incivility yourself. Most people lose their temper occasionally and can post incivil comments. But when there is a pattern of continuous personal attacks, then this is not acceptable. So, no, your edits are not fine. If edits such as the first three above recur, then you will be blocked. Also, if you believe that other editors are indulging in sockpuppetry, then you should take that concern to the appropriate page, instead of merely throwing out accusations. Thanks, Black Kite 12:53, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Please, you're obviously biased against me. You've failed to read all the posts by Justafax. The guy is toxic. And you are deliberately being blind to it.Malke 2010 (talk) 13:14, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

• If you can provide diffs that point out a current ongoing campaign of incivility by the other user, my reaction will be axactly the same as it has been to you. It's as simple as that. Black Kite 13:17, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Please. . .you only need to read the Karl Rove talk page. The guy can't leave me alone. He's obsessed.Malke 2010 (talk) 13:21, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

• I see little point in continuing this conversation if you are incapable of acknowledging your own edits and instead hand-waving over other people's behaviour without actually providing convincing evidence of it. I have pointed out how you are editing problematically, it is up to you to modify that behaviour and quit with the incivilities; hopefully you can take that on board so that I won't have to post here again. Black Kite 13:23, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

You see little point because you are losing the argument. It is obvious that you are biased, unfair, dishonest and disingenious. You're beaten. Go away.Malke 2010 (talk) 13:26, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
