A suggestion from a previously uninvolved admin

Hopefully you won't ignore this. May I suggest that you keep your talk page as others have edited it but with your modifications commented out using the <nowiki> templates and then when you want to read the page, uncomment out your font and size modifiers and use the preview button. This will hopefully make everyone happy. JoshuaZ 04:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Since your an admin and discussing policy (imho), there isn't any reason to ignore your message. About your suggestion, I will take it under consideration. Thanks! :) Ste4k 04:25, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

You can trust Joshua implicitly. He is an excellent editor, a very fair admin and a wonderful human being. I can't think offhand of anyone I respect more on WP. Joshua is also very well-informed on religious subjects. Just zis Guy you know? 21:32, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

The burden involved in implementing his suggestion renders it moot in my opinion. I'm saying this only after giving it due regard. Finding enough time to deal with only this page when I want to see the other pages on Wiki like world at large sees them hasn't justification compared to using the same time to work on articles. I've begun writing a client for WP now. Ste4k 21:37, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Ste4k, I know you don't like people posting on your talk page, but I'm a bit worried that you are misunderstanding the role of administrators on Misplaced Pages. "Since your an admin .... there isn't any reason to ignore your message," suggests that you would ignore messages from regular editors. An admin's opinions, advice, and input are not automatically worth more or more correct than any editor's. Keep that in mind. --Nscheffey 19:20, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Nscheffy, I don't believe that you can know, have known, or ever will know what I have, do, or will like. Do you actually not see how your statement is offensive? Ste4k 19:34, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually I don't, (Personal attack removed) --Nscheffey 20:28, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Do you want to speak about that incident that you know nothing about? Or do you want to address the topic that you brought up? Ste4k 20:51, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

You are completely out of control. Saying I "know nothing" is (Personal attack removed) --Nscheffey 21:03, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

So you would prefer to digress the matter rather than address it. Ste4k 21:26, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Course in Miracles

I could not reach you by email but please do not suggest a name change to the "A Course in Miracles" article.Who123 19:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

I'd seriously like to put the entire subject matter behind me. Until doing serious research on this topic, I hadn't ever heard of it, still haven't ever seen any of it mentioned in the media in any serious way, doubt that it has any real significance to world wide politics, religion, society, charities, wars, or anything else that is going to significantly change the planet any time soon. The fact that it does require an enormous amount of research indicates only that it is an obscure topic. That so many editors have so many different viewpoints on the matter only indicates that nobody can reach consensus and that the subject matter is ambiguous. The article along with its neighbors has caused significant amounts of abusive remarks to me for simply researching the matter which indicates that the presence of the article causes more problems than it serves to provide any information. Providing information is the primary objective of the encyclopedia. Consensus is the primary means that this encyclopedia changes it's content. And disambiguity is the primary tool for accomplishing that goal. Ste4k 19:34, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Nsceffey's comments

Please see policy concerning what you are doing. You are way out of line here. --Nscheffey 21:11, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

could you be more specific? Ste4k 21:21, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey, just chill. Let people write what they want and ignore the trolls. You can rely on us to ignore the trolls too. Just zis Guy you know? 21:30, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok. Ste4k 21:32, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Your merge of Sculpture in Ancient Greece to Greek statue

There is no way this is the correct merge. Greek statue should be merged into Sculpture of Ancient Greece, not the other way around. Stop changing links and merge it correctly. --Nscheffey 02:26, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Please respond with actual thoughts and not templates. --Nscheffey 04:57, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, but the template's message and my thoughts are exactly the same and I believe in optimality. Don't you have anything better to do than bother me with your petty insults? Ste4k 05:04, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Trolling

Just because it's your talk page doesn't mean that trolling is okay. Please can the lame header changes and sarcasm. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 03:46, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeeah. Don't troll me, either. Consider this a warning. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
