Speedy deletion nomination of Rick Peterson (Politician)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Rick Peterson (Politician) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

• Please put your actual user name in your signature. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 02:31, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
• I have also blocked you from the Mises article and its talk page for three months. Please use that period wisely, to learn how to edit and to communicate. Drmies (talk) 02:36, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
  • That is reasonable. I already understand the basic manners you seem to hold as being above me and treating it as a false premonition; however, do keep in mind, I got extremely heated because I had already been doing this for 1-2 months now, trying to revert vandalism. 3 months is reasonable, although the "ban" on editing the entirety of Misplaced Pages is extremely short-sighted and naive. Could you also provide some insight on what to do in an edit war like this (I'm not exactly sure)
    • Yes. Walk away. I saw you had been doing this for a while and was on the verge of blocking you indefinitely. Walk away, ask for protection, ask for other editors to get involved, warn the other editor, bring them up on a noticeboard, report them at ], any of those things--but you didn't, and now we have a hundred edits in this edit war clogging up the history. Good think you have other interests on Misplaced Pages: your opponent is blocked indefinitely, so I guess that ends the edit war, haha.

      If you browse around and look into these options I have summarized for you, you might indicate in an unblock request that next time you will know better what to do, and you might get unblocked. Good luck. Drmies (talk) 02:53, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks. Looking back at it, I should've kept my cool for much longer.

For the unblock request, I honestly don't care that much about editing Mises's page, because it was mainly about reverting the 1-2 months' worth of edits.

Next time probably be less angry and after 3-4 minutes of back and forth reverts I'll probably use the noticeboard you added. Thanks! (also, for signatures, does it have to be your username or is it just a thing that's followed? Can't find anything explicit) F. A. Hayek 03:00, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) Some people don't include their full username, but it's generally considered best practice, and per WP:CUSTOMSIG/P, A customised signature should make it easy to identify your username. What constitutes easy identification is probably open for at least some interpretation, but I'd recommend you just stick to "BasedMises" in the signature – it's far less confusing for others. -- Blablubbs|talk 09:27, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
