Hello, and ] to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for ]. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see: | |||

You are welcome to continue editing without ], but many editors recommend that you '''<span class="plainlinks"></span>'''. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see ]. If you edit without a username, your ] (190.161.134.66) is used to identify you instead. | |||
In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a ]! Please ] on talk pages using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out ], ask me on ], or ask your question and then place <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>]<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> before the question on this page. Again, welcome! <!-- Template:welcome-anon --> ] (]) 21:17, 27 September 2011 (UTC) | |||

] Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to ] other editors, as you did on ]. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the ] to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. You are welcome to rephrase your comment as a civil criticism of the article. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-npa1 --> | |||
Please refrain from using abusive language in the edit summaries such as in this edit and in particular this edit . In general, the language in your edit summaries has condescending and abusive tones. Referring to other people's edits as "bizarre" and "ridiculous", not to mention calling editors themselves "f*****g idiots" will accomplish nothing positive here on Misplaced Pages. Please be ] in your future comments. Thank you. --] (]) 01:59, 29 September 2011 (UTC) | |||
:Reverting a constructive edit for no good reason is guaranteed to piss the editor off. Did you feel the need to tell ] not to do that, or ask him why he reverted my changes? No, you did not. So you think it's fine to gratuitously piss people off. So asking me not to be rude to people is pure hypocrisy. Should ] apologise for his unnecessary and rude reverts of my edits, then I'll be glad to refrain from being rude in my edit summaries. Reckon that's likely to happen? I'm not going to hold my breath. ] (]) 18:31, 29 September 2011 (UTC) | |||
::My comment was meant as a fair warning, or more like just simple advice, not a threat or anything like that. It's just that I have seen it happen before. Editors who show a consitent pattern of uncivil and foul language eventually wind up getting blocked, regardless of the circumstances that precipitate the abusive remarks. I made my point and you can take it for what its worth. And no, I was not planning on following behind your edits and asking everyone why they pissed you off, if thats what you mean.--] (]) 22:47, 29 September 2011 (UTC) | |||
:::What I've seen happen before is that anonymous edits are treated like shit, regardless of what they are actually doing, and that anyone with a username is automatically assumed to be OK. You saw that I made edits that were reverted by someone with a username. Presumably you didn't bother to look into the merits of the edits, you just assumed that the username was right to revert them. And so you attacked me for being angry, not the username for reverting sensible edits. I think you should be able to see that it's unreasonable to expect good faith from me in return for that. | |||
::::As I recall the edits in question went something like this: You removed the word "aviatix" from the link piped to ]. User:EncMstr reverted your edit with no explanation. You then reverted User:EncMastr's edit back to your own while calling the editor a "fuc**g idiot". There was nothing wrong with your edits themselves. In fact, I would have made the same edits myself. Why would you assume I thought otherwise? If I thought there was anything wrong with your edits, I would have reverted ''your'' edits myself, but I did not. My problem was indeed only with the language used in the edit summary. If the roles were reversed, I would be commenting on User:EncMstr's talk page about name calling and you (the anon) would have never heard a peep from me about reverting a legit edit without an explanation. The problem was solved with the edits. (For the record, I do not condone reverting a sensible edit without an explanation) It was the language used that was the more serious offense in my opinion although it appears we disagree on that. I do however agree with you that anons are treated differently than established usernames, and while you owe me no explanation, your comment begs the question: If you feel this way, why would you not go ahead and create an account for yourself?--] (]) 03:54, 30 September 2011 (UTC) | |||
:::::So you think being rude in an edit summary is something you need to leave messages about, but reverting productive work without explanation is something you can happily ignore? Seems to me that's a very warped perspective and implicitly condones what you claim not to condone. If you believe that Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, and if you want it to get better, you should rethink your priorities. Sure, criticise my rude edit summaries if you like, but to simply ignore destructive edits like ]'s is not helpful to anyone. | |||
:::::If Misplaced Pages is going to declare itself "the 💕 that anyone can edit", then anonymous editors should not be discriminated against. In practice, they are, by you and many, many others. The solution to that is not for me or anyone else to create accounts but for those who actively discriminate to stop doing so. At least you've taken the time to have a civil discussion. That courtesy is frequently not given. From another IP address a couple of months ago I wrote an entire article of, I think, very high quality, lengthy, well referenced, comprehensive, etc, etc, and then got blocked after someone reverted something I did with no explanation, and I reverted back. No-one said a word about the article I wrote - all I got in return was a bunch of snotty templates and a block, for trying to reinstate good work. Things like that make me pretty contemptuous of the culture here, and I am very unlikely to start assuming good faith when bad faith is constantly assumed of me, simply because I don't have a username. ] (]) 18:32, 30 September 2011 (UTC) | |||

I have blocked you for 24 hours for your repeated incivility, particularly in your edit summaries. Misplaced Pages is a collaborative project, and you must be civil even when you disagree with other editors. You can paste the text {{tl|unblock}} with an explanation if you would like to try to convince an administrator to unblock you before the 24 hours has elapsed. ] (]) 20:53, 2 October 2011 (UTC) | |||
:And what action did you take against the idiot who keeps reverting productive edits? Absolutely fuck all by the looks of it. What is worse for wikipedia, me calling you a dopy cunt, or edits which reduce the quality of an article? Is this a kindergarten or an encyclopaedia? | |||
