FNC
Is this edit supposed to be some kind of clever joke that I'm just not getting? My username is AuburnPilot, not AutoburnPilot. I corrected the mistake here and you reverted me. What's up? - auburnpilot talk 12:38, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- no, not a clever joke. Stupid mistake actually. I had accidentally referred to you as Auburn, and after I saved the edit I read it later and for some reason I thought your name was autoburn pilot. I don't know why I thought that, but I honestly did. I was like, "Oh f*#k, I called him auburn!" I was so sure your username was actually was autoburn I didn't even check, I just fixed it as fast as I could. Maybe I was editing it at the same time as you or soemthing? I'm not sure. But I apologize. I'm certainly not helping my case in the FNC debate by not paying careful attention to your name. I'm sincerely sorry. I'm honestly not trying to be a jerk though. Jsn9333 (talk) 14:26, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- I just fixed it correctly, again, I'm sorry. Jsn9333 (talk) 14:27, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, no worries. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being a complete jackass and missing something obvious. I even looked at the page history to make sure I hadn't missed a user named "autoburn". Thanks for the correction. - auburnpilot talk 20:48, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- No, I was the one missing something obvious; totally my bad. I hope you will still respond to the comment though. Jsn9333 (talk) 03:09, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
My mistake
My point is simply this, when AuburnPilot thought you were butchering his name for some stupid joke, he asked you what the deal was. He didn't accuse you of anything. All I wanted from you was the same courtesy AuburnPilot afforded to you. Sometimes agf requires the assumption of a mistake when something seems blatantly out of whack. It would defy logic and ruin all my credibility on this project to so blatantly pick against you and favor Blaxthos by calling you out for doing the same thing he did, especially when he did it first. I just wish you would have asked me or pointed out the selective nature of my edit before accusing me. With that said, I have acknowledged my mistake, and you have told me you accept my explanation. So the issue is dead to me, and I am ready willing and able to move on. Ramsquire 18:10, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- I would be happy to remove the conversation from the thread if you are worried about your reputation. Would that be okay? I'm very sorry to have given you so much angst. AuburnPilot wondered if I was mocking his name, so in that sense I was basically wondering about the motivations behind the selective enforcement. I do suppose a much better route would have been to change my title back and then discuss with you on your talk page. I am sorry, and I will try to do better in the future.
- Please don't edit my entry on the FNC page. Anyone who reads it would understand what happened. I don't understand why you are having difficulty with the premise that if something weirds happens, ask first, accuse later. What I said above is if I had did what you thought I was doing, I would lose credibility. I've been here intermittently for years, and have come across thousands of editors through RfCs, RfAs, RfDs, arbitrations and mediations. I am not concerned about any one edit I've made, nor do I have any angst about any one editor. I am trying to give you a small bit of advice of being succesful here, especially since you have already been blocked in your first month of editing. Ramsquire 18:23, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Alrighty friend. Your call. And since we're giving each other advice, here is some for you (no offense intended, as I haven't taken offense to your giving me advice). Perhaps next time you want to accuse someone of being uncivil, you might want to take your own advice and "ask first, accuse later." What you did showed favoritism publicly, resulted in you accusing me publicly of being uncivil, and I called you on it publicly. End of story. You pleaded mistake, and in good faith I believed you. It's over. I could just as easily accuse you of "not assuming good faith faith" for not actually looking into the matter and perhaps talking to me about it before tossing out accusations.

April 2008
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Fox News Channel. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Jauerback/dude. 03:19, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- I suppose this is because I edited the lead of the Fox News entry twice today. I am curious, did you also warn the person who reverted my edits twice? (TheNobleSith). If not, then why? Thank you. Jsn9333 (talk) 03:52, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- No, I didn't warn that user, because he/she has a total of 2 edits in 24 hours to this article whereas you already have 4. Granted, not all of them are reverts, but you are closer to violation of WP:3RR than User:TheNobleSith is. A warning is not a threat, it's merely to make you aware and more cautious of your edits. If you feel User:TheNobleSith should be warned, then by all means, warn him/her, but please don't complain to me by pointing to someone else's behavior rather than heeding the advice. Jauerback/dude. 03:58, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- If I made 4 edits of the lead, then 2 of them were minor punctuation or mistakes of that sort. Do you take that into account? I am not attempting to "complain", but rather am seeking to understand this process better. I'm fairly new here. Thank you. Jsn9333 (talk) 04:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
