| == Facts unspoken are still facts == | |||
| Article talk pages are not the best place for comments like . The comment is factually correct, but doesn't address content, and will be used against you by those who judge you as "the enemy." Worse, it may be held against you if ARBCOM becomes involved. Not good. Always assume other editors are acting in good faith, even when they are not (obviously this is not a death-pact, but it is best if you allow outside entities to determine when things have gone to far). Focus on content and research good sources. Stay frosty and don't swallow any ] (it's spiked with razor blades). Use the proper wrench for the nut; do not use pliers. This advice is free and might be completely worthless...or not. {{mdash}} ] (]) 18:22, 31 December 2013 (UTC) | |||

| == How things will go down == | |||
| Your methods are not working. Currently there are several very experienced editors trying to figure out a solution to the problems on that article. Responding to almost every post with a confrontational attitude, even if you are right, is degrading the flow of the conversation and the quality of communication. | |||
| Here is exactly what will happen if you continue: | |||
| # The experienced editors will walk away because rational discourse is impossible. | |||
| # The article will stay the same or, more likely, get much worse. | |||
| # Your level of frustration will increase. | |||
| # All of your edits will be reverted because they lack "consensus." | |||
| # You will violate 3RR. You will try hard not to, but you will make a mistake. | |||
| # You will be blocked for edit warring. | |||
| # You be taken to AN/I for personal attacks. | |||
| # Steps 5, 6, and 7 will then be repeated. | |||
| # After Step 8 has occurred between 1 and 5 times you will be blocked for an indefinite period of time. | |||
| # The article will not have been improved. | |||
| This is not free advice. This is a guarantee. | |||
| It is not about what is Right, or True, or Just. It is about improving this Encyclopedia and nothing else. Please take some time to evaluate the options before you choose your path. {{mdash}} ] (]) 18:30, 3 January 2014 (UTC) | |||
