OK, there's something I ''really'' want to know from you. Are you still setting up primary topics even if "(disambiguation)" isn't in the page's title? If so, you know it doesn't make sense, right? Please reply below, ] <small>(] • ])</small> 01:10, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

For instance, ] says: "''When a page has "(disambiguation)" in its title – i.e., it is the disambiguation page for a term that has a primary topic – users are most likely to arrive there by clicking on a top link from the primary topic article...''".

] You currently appear to be engaged in an ]{{#if:HP (disambiguation)|&#32; according to the reverts you have made on ]}}.

::] is but an ignorable essay in your cause. You have a clear history of instigating edit wars, as well as violating policies such as ] and ]. For your sake Abtract, desist from going back to your old ways and try talking things out for once (attempt the ] method like I am, as J told us to do). Your recent activity on the HP dab has been nothing short of unbecoming. Don't let me catch you doing that again. Revert warring is still a blockable offense (even if that means defying the spirit of ]). Keep in mind what I've conveyed. ] <small>(] • ])</small> 19:41, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

No, you're right, the tone of some of the material was inappropriate. I hadn't considered that, but I think I've cleaned it up, and that gave me a chance to edit some other material that was bothering me. Thanks for pointing it out. ] (]) 05:15, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

This is an automated message from ]. I have performed a web search with the contents of ], and it appears to be very similar to another Misplaced Pages page: ]. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at ] by acknowledging the duplication of material in ] to preserve attribution history.

==Sneery comments==

I'm fairly new to Misplaced Pages, and try to be nice and so on, and add little improvements and removing vandalism where I find it, but I'm not sure if I want to step up this level of contribution (that is actual original content) if when I receive for my efforts 'sneery' or condescending comments.
My edit of ] was ] after watching a highly stimulating documentary about soundwaves and ancient ceremonies. I added my comment but failed to find anything online to back up the theory. Ok fine, it needs to be pulled until there is a citation but really is the comment ' at Megaliths was any less nonsensical than the one mentioned above ... but hey you may surprise us all and go the constructive route.' What does 'you may surprise us all' mean? Is this some kind of hard hand encouragement? Plus this comment is permanently on my user talk so now I have to work hard to show it is no longer true! My experience of Misplaced Pages has been tempered somewhat by these 'sneery' and really rather unnecessary comments. Perhaps the offending remark could be removed and an apology from the writer before I make any further contribution? I dunno. ] (]) 23:28, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

:Actually was your edit to megaliths and, as you will see, it is indeed nonsense ... as was your creation of the "article" ] at about the same time. Well done you seem to have grown up a tad but please don't have a pop at me for fairly gently pointing out the error of your earlier ways. Incidentally, if it offends you so much to have the comments on your talk page, all you have to do is remove them. Good luck with your studies. ] (]) 14:49, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
