I'm currently proposing a merger of ] and ]. Five days have elapsed with no one objecting (or even commenting for that matter), and according to one sentence in ], I may perform the merger ("After sufficient time has elapsed to generate consensus or silence (at least 5 days), you may perform the merger or request that someone else do so."). However, further down I see this:

"After proposing the merger, place your reasons on the talk page and check back in a couple of weeks for a response. You may be able to invoke a response by contacting some of the major or most-recent contributors via their respective talk-pages. If there is clear agreement after two weeks that the articles should be merged (or no response after four weeks), proceed with the merger."

Which one is it? Five days, or four weeks? (Four weeks seems pretty long to me.) I also asked this on ], but I noticed that many of the other questions seem to go unanswered there... Many thanks! ] 05:18, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I went ahead and reported him to ] now that he violated the final warning.

By the way, do you know if 3RR applies to us in cases like this? The edits are definitely POV and quite possibly trolling, but not blatant vandalism. – ] <small>(])</small> 13:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
:I am really surprised that nobody thinks feminism is subject to vandalism - today has broken all records there. It is not lost on me that feminism was born out of abusive behaviour by males, and the feminism article has been the continual target of hate edits. I'm rapidly developing a zero tolerance for vandals. --] 21:50, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Revert it back. When it looks questionable, has no references, and no edit summary, it is really hard to tell. ] 02:31, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

== Moral horificies on Misplaced Pages ==

Dear GZKN

I am very cross with you. I am not in the habit of being reverted. That was an obscenity I removed from that page (I cannot bring myself to name it) your reversion of my prudent edit was an affront. That may be how you behave in your part of the world, but let me tell you, it is not how we behave in Mississippi. The world is a beautiful place, and young children not to mention "Our Lord" do not want to read about unseemly bodily functions whilst researching their assignments. Now please remove the offensive material at once. Thank you!

Sincerely yours

Orphaned fair use image (Image:93PeterJenningsClinton.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:93PeterJenningsClinton.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Image:Tombrokaw08091974.jpg

Hello Gzkn, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Tombrokaw08091974.jpg) was found at the following location: User:Gzkn/Sandbox/Tom Brokaw. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits.

Category:Articles needing copy edit by month

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Articles needing copy edit by month, by Black Falcon (talk · contribs), another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Articles needing copy edit by month fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:

G6 (housekeeping). This category previously contained individual monthly categories for January-May 2007. The 5 monthly categories are now classified directly in Category:Misplaced Pages articles needing copy edit, making this category unnecessary. I changed the categorisation of the 5 monhtly categories to avoid overcategorisation.


To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Articles needing copy edit by month, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:31, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
