| I'd say that shouldn't be posted yet; as you said, another revert war carries a high risk for everyone involved. (I'm really surprised that you and Dante weren't blocked the first time. Trying a revert war again would really be pressing your luck, and I strongly discourage either one of you from doing that.) The reason why ] is there is so that we can work on a revision that all three of us agree about. Mainly, you and/or I and/or Dante need to take care of citing the sources for the more controversial points in the article. Hope this helps! --] 04:47, 21 November 2005 (UTC) | I'd say that shouldn't be posted yet; as you said, another revert war carries a high risk for everyone involved.

| Actually, that's not a concern at all. Keep in mind that Misplaced Pages hosts over 800,000 articles right now, plus all of the previous versions of each article (except when there's a copyright violation; I think we delete those entirely). ] has some more information about this. So having archives of talk page discussions it not a problem. It's actually a good thing, because it gives details of how we reach consensus and keeps us from having to revisit arguments. That is, if a new editor comes here sometime next year and has a lot of questions, as you did, then they should be able to look at the archives instead of answering the questions again. | |||

Revision as of 04:21, 24 November 2005
Revised version of Gothic metal - not yet
I'd say that shouldn't be posted yet; as you said, another revert war carries a high risk for everyone involved. (I'm really surprised that you and Dante weren't blocked the first time. Trying a revert war again would really be pressing your luck, and I strongly discourage either one of you from doing that.) The reason why the subpage is there is so that we can work on a revision that all three of us agree about. Mainly, you and/or I and/or Dante need to take care of citing the sources for the more controversial points in the article. Hope this helps! --Idont Havaname 04:47, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Enough space on talk pages
Actually, that's not a concern at all. Keep in mind that Misplaced Pages hosts over 800,000 articles right now, plus all of the previous versions of each article (except when there's a copyright violation; I think we delete those entirely). Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not#Misplaced Pages is not a paper encyclopedia has some more information about this. So having archives of talk page discussions it not a problem. It's actually a good thing, because it gives details of how we reach consensus and keeps us from having to revisit arguments. That is, if a new editor comes here sometime next year and has a lot of questions, as you did, then they should be able to look at the archives instead of answering the questions again.
Also, please don't delete comments from my talk page; I know other users like to delete old comments, but I prefer to keep everything on the page and archive when I need to. --Idont Havaname 04:21, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
