Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 14:33, 4 May 2015

Welcome to Gobonobo's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply.

continued from User talk:Giano...

I find the attempts to provoke any editor into some sort of negative response far less civil than mentioning any particular gender's genitalia. There was absolutely NO reason for that editor to be posting on Eric's page other than an attempt to provoke and WP:HARRASS him. The block should stand.

There is a long history here, and if you are familiar with it, then I can only assume you support such behavior. I hope that is not the case. — Ched :  ?  01:01, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Please don't pretend that I support the actions of an editor because I recognized an instance of incivility against them. Giano's attack on Lightbreather occurred on Eric's talk page in a discussion that Giano had not previously been a part of. WP:NPA doesn't have a clause saying that it's okay to attack editors if you think they're being disruptive. Since you don't seem to be interested in doing anything about ongoing incivility, you might also like to not do anything about an editor calling me "a problem" and implying I'm on drugs. gobonobo 01:28, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Reading through the entire thread on Eric's talk, and as was pointed out to you here, the entire subject matter of "ovaries" was brought up by Lightbreather. Suggesting that they (LB) take them (the ovaries) and leave the page, where they (LB) were clearly being confrontational, is not a personal attack in my opinion. In reviewing your recent contribs, I can understand why an editor might consider your recent edits "a problem". In light of everything I've seen, I find it very unlikely that you and I will reach any sort of agreement on this. Hopefully in some future discussion we can find that we agree on something, but I doubt it will be here and now. I'll leave you to your page. — Ched :  ?  02:28, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

(I don't want to start a new thread.) Every time I read "imply" I am afraid. I look at attitude more than single remarks and their implications which may be subject to interpretation. I have found Eric on the side of women in times of need and will not forget that. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:47, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Gender Gap red list pages

I just kind of stumbled into your red list pages and they are quite impressive! I wish I was a more prolific content creator, there is obviously a lot of work that needs to be done. Liz 19:48, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Do not accuse people of being sock puppets without cause

Sorry, I hadn't logged in when I reverted a removal of dispute tag. That does not make my IP a sock puppet.
