| {{semi-retired}} | |||
| Hello, one of the information team has identified you as the person who deleted most of the recent edits I made. My original message to them is below. Can you please respond with an explanation. I recently added several external links to your entries on “Cynicism” (contemporary and philosophy), “Tramp”, “Hobo” and “Asceticism”. All my edits were taken down by someone within Misplaced Pages after I received a message to say that multiple changes indicates spamming! I have published an academic text on Cynicism that has been on Misplaced Pages’s “Cynicism (philosophy)” entry for about 8 years now: Ian Cutler, (2005), Cynicism from Diogenes to Dilbert. McFarland & Co. ISBN 0-7864-2093-6, and is still there. | |||
| == ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message == | |||
| All my new edits, under the username ‘nicengelhart’ were deleted from the sites. The reason for the updating is simply that I have not got around to updating the Misplaced Pages pages for some years and have a lot of new, and very relevant, information to add including philosophy journal articles on the subjects. The website I developed, ‘Cynical Reflections’ and an online book I’m writing ‘A Philosophy of Tramping’ < http://www.cynicalreflections.net/ > has a lot of information that I’m sure researchers interested in those subjects would find of useful. Furthermore, I receive no professional or financial benefits from this work, I’m retired! If it is so difficult and contentious to add information to Misplaced Pages, what is the point of it? Please can you reinstate the edits I made, or advise me how I can add them myself without them being zapped ] (]) 19:20, 25 June 2013 (UTC) | |||

| I'm nearly speechless.

I don't care how much you don't like me or how pissed off you are at me, you are en experienced editor who should know better than to revert content I have promised to no longer revert while seeking consensus is blatantly hostile and completely uncivil.

Look here for more on why what you did is just not acceptable. At the very least your action is ]; at the worst it is disruptive, ], and ].

| Message for Span: you are making assumptions about the external links I left, by parroting guidelines that mention self-promotion and a conflict of interest without checking out if this is the case. What evidence do you have that this is the case? I have read your guidelines, which refers in most cases to using common sense. If you are taking on the role of policing other people's activity, then have the courtesy of discussing individual links with me before simply deleting all of my edits. And who is policing your activity? The Philosophy of Tramping section on my blog is primarily a showcase of work by published tramp writers (currently Victorian tramp writers), whose work has sadly been overlooked. It is not about MY Ideas, and is certainly far more thoroughly researched than the pages on this subject in Misplaced Pages, which appears very superficial on the subject indeed. In any case, a lot of published work (and I say this as a published writer) can be less accurate and verifiable than writing that appears in blogs and websites (which in any case are frequently linked to on Misplaced Pages, hence the reason for making the links I did). If Misplaced Pages sets out to embrace the digital age in which we live, then it needs to review it's attitude to other digital sources of information; otherwise it is in danger of going the same way as the current publishing industry—into obscurity. I would like this discussion monitored by an independent third party, as I note from your talk page that I am not the first person that you have vexed in this way. {{helpme}}. In any case, this experience of engaging with Misplaced Pages has just convinced me that I am wasting my time on something frivolous that is taking me away from more serious concerns, so I will leave it at that.

ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message
Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2024 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:24, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
Your revert on Ted Hughes
Regarding this revert, as stated in the Manual of Style section at Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style/Biography#Nicknames, a nickname is only included in quotes if "it is not a common hypocorism". This rule is observed at such featured articles as Charlie Chaplin, Alec Douglas-Home, Tom Driberg, Walt Disney, Tom Derrick, Bill Denny. Bob Feller, Terry Fox and many others. The formatting can be done done differently, as at Bob Dylan, but putting an obvious hypocorism (such as "Ted" for Edward) in quotes is generally not regarded as an option. William Avery (talk) 13:07, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
Your revert on Ninon de l'Enclos
I've restored my edit on Ninon de l'Enclos. The relevant policy is not WP:DICT but WP:LINK - unlike, for example, the word "author", the word "courtesan" is not a common word (see here for evidence), and it's reasonable to assume that many readers—particularly those whose first language is not English—would benefit from having the word linked. — The Anome (talk) 09:13, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- WP articles are not there to explain to people what common nouns mean. They can look it up in a dictionary. Anna (talk) 01:37, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
