==Personal attack== == Something ==


Hello there, dear sir. I would like to inform you that there is no need to have removed my edit to the year ]. The edit that I made to this page is a relevant edit. If you were to have read the page, you would have known that the actress who I edited onto the page was born in 1993, so technically it is relevant information. If you see this, please take note.
I just received a very strident personal attack from the user Andy The Grump on my user page and on the RFC on the Zeitgeist fim series page. Is there anything you can do to help me deal with this? This user called me a ''little shit'' in the not so distant past on Ani. I think a bunch of people are going to gang up on me now concerning that article which is only a content dispute at heart. Thank you ] (]) 11:19, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
Thank you,
The Editor.


P.S. My account is both more than 4 days old and I have made more than 10 edits, so there is no real need to do this. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 23:11, November 25, 2019 (UTC)</small>
:I don't think I deserve a topic ban for going to this forum and complaining about personal attacks . I try to edit with guidelines and try to edit fairly. I never have made a personal attack on this project and complaining about getting p.a.'s should not boomerang me. My opinion. ] (]) 23:47, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Arthur, you deleted the Franel example from ], but it would be good to have at least 1 example with non-constant coefficients. There are many thousands of examples in OEIS.

Hello there, dear sir. I would like to inform you that there is no need to have removed my edit to the year 1993. The edit that I made to this page is a relevant edit. If you were to have read the page, you would have known that the actress who I edited onto the page was born in 1993, so technically it is relevant information. If you see this, please take note.
