==Your recent AfD comments== | |||
Your recent "votes" on articles for deletion are rather unproductive. Since AfDs are not votes, but rather discussions, your comments are adding very little. Comment on the articles and participate in these discussions rather than copy and pasting your viewpoints on the encyclopedia's status from AfD to AfD. Thanks, ] 03:31, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
:I stand by my comments and votes. I only posted the keeps on ones that I thought should be kept. I can't bring it to myself to vote negative, because I know someone must have spent time writing an article. Best, --] 03:47, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
==Your comments on AfD== | |||
May I suggest that you please do not ] your comments on the AfD discussions? You are not helping in the consensus building process. If you are willing to participate, then please analyse the articles and the reasons presented for deletion before stating your opinions. Otherwise your comments will just be deemed irrelevant. Thank you. Regards.--<strong><font style="color: #082567">]</font>]<font style="color: #082567">]</font></strong> 03:34, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||

:::Then I hope you understand that the closing administrator is at liberty to discount your comments entirely as none of them touch directly on the merits and demerits of deleting these specific articles based on their content. Regards, ] 03:54, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
::::Nevertheless, I really do think some are being too quick to delete articles. If NOBODY sees merit in an article, well okay, but if even a couple of people find an article useful and intriguing, keeping it is less likely to do harm than not having one. Have a pleasant week! --] 03:56, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Disruptive comments on AfD pages == | |||
Please do not disrupt discussions concerning articles for deletion by simpling copying and pasting the same generic message. Whatever your goal is, it is not being met by doing this.

Let me please echo what the people above have said and note that in my opinion, your behaviour violates ]. Inserting copy-pasted unspecific "keep" votes into every AfD in sight, even in cases where the article very obviously merits deletion, is disruptive and detrimental to consensus-building. If you disagree with the deletion policy, the way to go about this is ''not'' to disrupt the process. If you do not desist, an administrator may block you for disruption. ] 06:24, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
:Okay, enough already. Y'all are starting to beat a dead horse on this one. Telling someone something once is usually sufficient. All of the specific articles, I though should be kept and not every single "keep" post of mine was identical. Sure, many were, but there was some variation and after the first message on my talk page, I made all new "keep" messages more precise. Beating the same point to death after the message has been received is well . . . Best, --] 06:31, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Removal of comments by anonymous editors == | |||
Please note that anonymous editors have been comments from this page. If these are you, consider doing the removal while logged in to avoid suspicion. Regards, ] 07:12, 6 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
