== Music Hall ==

I'm putting some of the information I added on the Music Hall article back up, such as George Formby Sr. being one of the highest paid entertainers of his day in the Music Hall and Charlie Chaplin jnr. starting off his career, it isn't unsourced it even says on the articles of the two performers.

Dear Cassianto:

I am dismayed that you saw fit, in violation of ], in ], to edit another user's comment in the most extreme manner, i.e. to delete it. Throughout my discussion on that page, I worked hard to abide by each and every piece of advice given at ], especially this one:
* Although it is understandably difficult in an intense argument, if other editors are not as civil as you would like them to be, be ''more'' civil, not less. That way at least you are not moving towards open conflict and name-calling; by your own action you are actively doing something about it. Try to treat others with dignity—they are people as well.
I sit here on my couch with my laptop. I read comments from SchroCat at ]. I perceive a lack of civility. I respond as civilly as I can. I avoid name calling. I struggle to treat others with dignity. If anyone perceives my efforts at civility as condescending or patronising, I am sorry, that is not my intent. But even if my comments were condescending or patronising, that would not justify your deletion. Instead, you could have offered a comment along the lines of "Anomalocaris, I ], but where you said ____, please understand that this is condescending because the words ____ mean _____ ...." — or whatever the details may be. Even now, I encourage you to do this. If you think that this paragraph is itself condescending or patronising, again, I am sorry, but I don't see any way I can be more polite than this.

On ], you did not have the right to threaten, "Stop your warring or I will have you blocked", because I have never engaged in an edit war on ]. But your threat doesn't concern me, except to the extent that I raise an eyebrow over your escalation of the conflict, because I never have and never will engage in an edit war on ].

On ], you did not have the right to revert my comment. It was a violation of ].

At ], it says,
:If you have taken all other reasonable steps to resolve the dispute, ''and the dispute is not over the content of an article'', you can ]. Be prepared to show that you tried to resolve the dispute by other means.
That is what I am doing now, attempting to resolve the dispute by other means.

Please settle this like the ]. I am asking you, please, revert your deletion of my comment at ], and promise me you will never edit or delete my talk page comments again.

Sincerely,

] (]) 06:01, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

:{{u|Anomalocaris|Your}} post was condescending and patronising. That's why I removed it. Your long and exhaustive posts make for some laborious reading. Also, you have seemingly, and successfully, managed to turn a discussion about punctuality into a civility discussion. Why is it that you people, when you can't get your own way, play the bloody civility card? ]] 06:06, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

::Dear Cassianto:

::#Even if my post is condescending and patronising, per ] you did not have the right to delete it. Again, I am asking you, please, revert your deletion of my comment at ], and promise me you will never edit or delete my talk page comments again.
::#I am not a mind-reader. Your declaration that my post was condescending and patronising does not help me understand the problem. Please explain. Please quote a section and explain what I did wrong.
::#I am sorry if others find my posts long and exhaustive — perhaps you mean ''exhausting'' rather than ''exhaustive'' — but from where I sit, I am the reasonable one and others are unreasonable. I respond as best I can, citing Misplaced Pages guides and showing how they relate to the disputed items.
::#SchroCat repeatedly claimed that the original sources must be consulted. In the post you deleted, I did that, and provided the relevant information as briefly as I could, consistent with showing how applying Misplaced Pages policies such as ] combines with the source text to support my position. It is unreasonable to first request information and then complain that the requested information is too long. But "tl;dr" was SchroCat's reply when I provided information to support my position.
::#The original dispute was concerning punctuation, not punctuality.
::#I have repeatedly encouraged civility because another participant in the discussion at ] has repeated acted with a lack of civility, including but not limited to
::#*Editing my comments in violation of ];
::#*Making repeated gratuitous use of anatomical vulgarity, and increasingly after I requested not to do this;
::#*Falsely accusing me of edit warring over ].
::#I am not the one who first raised the issue of civility. Moreover, in my first postings where I mentioned civility at all, I did so by promising that I would be civil, not by demanding that others be civil.
::#Please be aware that many people find the phrase "" to be offensive. Ordinarily, the phrase "you people" is directed toward a known individual or group, so religious, ethnic, national, or racial identities may be obvious, and it is considered to be a social ''faux pas'' to make note of such identification. In this case, you don't know me and you don't know what religious, ethnic, national, or racial identities I may have, so I am curious about what ''people'' you think I am a member of and why you think so, and I am bewildered about why you think it appropriate to raise that issue here. (Well, I will ] and assume you simply did not know about "", but '''this is serious, so please respond.''')
::Sincerely,

:::Another tedious block of balls, I see. Learn quickly that less is more. Learn quickly why I changed the column heading, learn quickly not to be patronising, condescending, disruptive and tedious. - ] (]) 07:19, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
::I'll add that you are, of course, free to put your own text back, but of course you know that, and are only being pointy by coming here to bore people on another thread, rather than taking that simple step. A work of advice: if you do put the new tedious wall of nonsense back, take out the patronising bollocks on civility: it will not help. - ] (]) 07:21, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

{{u|Anomalocaris}}, hiding behind an essay does not mean that you can condescend and patronise others. I also don't care much for your pointy directions telling me to self revert, I will not. Like SchroCat suggests, you are free to revert me back, but I suggest that when you do you trim it down and censor your patronising tone. ]] 07:35, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Sadly the gibbering bollocks wasn't removed and the tedious wall of idiocy was extended further. Sometimes people are their own worst enemy, as the overly-long pile of rubbish is too long, boring and patonising to bother with. Either way, I've tweaked the article appropriately, and hopefully there should be no more to be heard from this disruptive editor. Having said that, the levels of pomposity and arrogance shown so far suggest they will continue to press their mis-reading of the guidlines even further, and prove even more disruptive on the article. - ] (]) 08:52, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
