No, but I used to know a group called Friar Tuck & the Pheasant Pluckers who had some really cunning stunts... 8-+ Peridon (talk) 15:42, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!
- I recommend you start from scratch - as you have already been advised, that type of promotion cannot be permitted even in your userspace. It CANNOT be created as an actual article yet, you either need to make a WP:USERSPACEDRAFT, or use the articles for creation process ES&L 14:22, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
Coin and WP:BITE
Regarding this, WP:BITE is an admirable policy that Misplaced Pages editors don't snap at new or inexperienced editors for not being familiar with Misplaced Pages's customs and policies. The user in question is neither. Someone with seven years experience, over 1300 edits to WP: space, and well over 100 edits to Jimbo's talk knows full well that if you want to propose a radical change in policy you either type ] to find the ongoing discussion about it or if that doesn't bring something up you go to WP:Village pump (policy) (he has over 70 edits to VPP so it's not like he doesn't know it's there), not go to Jimbo's talkpage to administer yet another flogging to the dead horse. Sure, Jimbo has an open door policy, but that doesn't mean he wants his talkpage hosting the same discussion over and over again every few weeks. Mogism (talk) 23:01, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
October 2013
Hello, I'm PantherLeapord. I noticed that you recently removed some content without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, you can use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! PantherLeapord|My talk page|My CSD log 00:29, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
- I'm sure you read the edit-summary when I removed your "template"? It was bloody obvious - and you need to stay off of Dogmatic's talkpage, and he should stay off yours. Bloody ironic that you bitch about being templated, then head off and template people. Much more poking of bears will lead to you being treated like salmon ES&L 00:33, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
- For the record: while I personally prefer archiving a message of that type instead of removing it, I appreciate the sentiment.
- By the way, I suggest you read that user's latest edit summary at my user talk page. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 11:50, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
- You mean this one? Yeah - pretty hilarious, especially considering that Misplaced Pages policy says nothing of the sort. Leapord was inches away from a WP:CIR block not that long ago - they clearly are performing the same behaviours that is now getting them inching back towards a WP:CIR block. I even more wholeheartedly enjoy how he closed a recent thread on his talkpage in the most huff-filled, childish, and policy-breaking way possible. <insert deity> save us all from the wrath of the mis-spelled leopard ES&L 12:07, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
OK, I'll bite...
...what is your story? Why are you editing and reverting someone else's talk page? Especially before they may have even had an opportunity to read a message that was posted for them? There is clearly an ongoing dispute, one that has nothing to do with you and will likely end up at ANI. Why are you involving yourself? - thewolfchild 23:56, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
- Because, as an admin, I'm sworn to uphold the rules - and I see no reason for you to act so stupid as to get blocked. Stop. Period. ES&L 00:26, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Perhaps you could clarify your reply? (and, perhaps, you could actually answer the question) Also, what "rules" are you referring to? And, where does it say that you can call another editor "stupid"? (as "an admin" or otherwise) - thewolfchild 04:43, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Between WP:UP and WP:TPG, an editor is given wide leeway as to how they maintain their talkpage, and who is permitted to post there. For example, they are not subject to 3RR on their talkpage - although the other party can be. I may also discuss the behaviour of ANY editor anywhere on the project without a) notifying them, and b) without requiring their input (except when formally reported to an admin noticeboard). Most importantly - since you seem to have issues with grammatical structures - "your behaviour is childish" is NOT the same as "you are a child". One is a discussion of behaviour, the other is a descriptor of the person, and when directed at an adult is considered a personal attack. The former follows Misplaced Pages's model: comment on the edits, not the editor - as our behaviour is only evident by the nature and content of our edits. You seem to be extremely confused as to what constitutes a personal attack - I would review WP:WIAPA and the other policies/guidelines linked above, and back away from the edge of the very nasty cliff you're currently standing beside ES&L 08:41, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- You seem to be desperately trying to explain something that you yourself simply do not understand. My edits have all been reasonable and within policy. If you, or he, or anyone else has a problem with them, then you, or he, or anyone else can bring their concerns to ANI. Toddst1 has violated multiple policies. His actions are disgraceful and as an admin, he is an embarrassment. You are just as bad as he is, if not worse. You also made an edit that bastardized my username and constitutes a personal attack, and right here you have called me stupid. That is no more allowed than if I were to say, change your name to "Eats Shit, and Trolls", or call you a 'flaming idiot'. I'm sure you wouldn't care for that and you would consider those as personal attacks. Modifying usernames into insults and name-calling is not allowed. I don't see why you or he cannot get that thru your heads. Surely, admins must have more maturity than the two of you have shown here? I would ask you to explain your silly cliff analogy, but quite frankly, I don't care. In fact, I am beginning to believe that any further communication with you would simply be a waste of my time. This will be my last post here. Please stay off my talk page as well. Good day. - thewolfchild 11:23, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for proving me right. You surprisingly hit the nail on the head - communicating with you is apparently useless. Begone ES&L 11:49, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Begone, not to take sides here, but good adminning is to avoid this kind of heated confrontation. Your efforts to resolve any issues would be greatly appreciated (and is what the community expected of you when endorsing your RFA). Thanks. Tony (talk) 08:28, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- Not sure what you're talking about Tony - it's quite obviously a one-sided "heated confrontation". My attempts to protect them from becoming blocked led to a conversation that the OTHER party did not like the answer to, and then THEY escalated. Rather than escalate with them, I detached. Even in the ANI filing, I'm not proposing any specific action, merely that one needs to be taken. I cannot fathom what conversation you read that led to what you wrote above - they're logically disconnected ES&L 08:54, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, I got your sig. wrong, ESL. I've read no other conversations. I just happened on this page and saw unfortunate heat. I don't like to see editors sniping in this way. I'll butt out. Tony (talk) 09:04, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Precious
gentle bite
Thank you for greeting new users, for dealing with deletions, for a clear view in heat, for biting gently inspite of your shooting user name, for wisdom about apologising, "mixing humour and instruction", for missing, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
--Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:26, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Wow, thanks! ES&L 00:00, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
ANI notice
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:51, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks - brief comment added ES&L 23:59, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
Breeze Barton merge
As you participated in Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Breeze Barton, you may be interested to learn that I have opened a discussion to propose merging the article's contents to List of Marvel Comics characters: B. Feel free to comment. Taylor Trescott - + my edits 20:56, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
- There was no real need to have a discussion to propose merging ... considering the comments on the AFD, WP:BOLD probably applied ES&L 23:47, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
213.37.84.214 harassment
Hi. I removed this harassment from my page. Part of it is addressed to you. As you didn't want me to participate at ANI I'm messaging you directly. Widefox; talk 14:32, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- I see they unfortunately made it more difficult for themself. Good job ignoring ridiculous provocation ES&L 23:45, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
user page
2 days is enough time to wait for a reply in this case. Surprising behaviour from someone for whom I have a great deal of respect on this project, but whose recent activities are to trash me directly whenever they have a chance. Let me know when you get over whatever grudge you hold against me...my talkpage is always open to people with a reasonable set of ethics like yourself ES&L 11:04, 19 October 2013 (UTC)The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Please don't edit my user page. NE Ent 23:41, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- Wow, Ent, sorry for removing something that someone had put there improperly. Nice attitude towards someone who was protecting your user page. Most normal people say "thanks", and add "it was okay staying there in this case, but I appreciate what you were trying to do". Should you fail in the future to have WP:AGF, feel free to count to 100 before clicking save around here ... this is an AGF zone, and I'm certain this was only a temporary fuckup on your part ES&L 23:43, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
A note on WP:PROD
You reverted the removal of the WP:PROD on Citizens Unity of India with the comment "You may only remove PROD if you actually fix the problems". That isn't the case: even the original editor is entitled to remove a Prod notice without comment or improvement. Not that it is a great thing to to do, as the next stop is probably AfD after one last WP:BEFORE check. AllyD (talk) 11:41, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
A kitten for you!
