Welcome to my talk page!

Hi! Welcome to my talk page. Ask me anything here, do whatever, just don't vandalize. Sign your posts with ~~~~ so I don't have to check the history to see who commented.

Message Area Below

I saw your revert on the Horizon League tournament. If possible those parts of the bracket should either be removed or say "BYE" because the way it is now is somewhat confusing.


Your request for rollback

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback can be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing!

RE: Francophonie

Please use better judgement when reverting a correction (in edit summary); I have restored 'polities', as 'politics' in the lead makes no sense as is. Thank you.

"Jesse50"

Thanks for the heads up/revert. He's a persistent one; he's got something like 125 or so sockpuppets that he's tried to use on an ongoing basis. --Mhking (talk) 02:37, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Explanation

When adding to an article, please be very careful to not delete (blank) earlier content, which in this case was all very carefully selected to produce the most encyclopedic article possible. Thank you for this consideration. Badagnani (talk) 19:46, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Recommendation

I hope you don't mind a bit of advise: Ignore the incivility and disruption per this extremely helpful essay. Follow WP:DR, be civil, don't get caught up in the drama. --Ronz (talk) 03:21, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

At some point, ignoring isn't enough. If you want to start an RfC/U, I'll participate as well. --Ronz (talk) 21:43, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

If you start a RFC, I bet definitely more than 10 editors on good standings would join in you. Several admins have recommended it already.--Caspian blue 19:09, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Isn't mediation already under way? If you think the RFC will be useful go for it, but I suggest focusing on the actual dispute. ChildofMidnight (talk) 19:23, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Are you talking to me or Eugene2x? Well, the content dispute is being dealt by the meditation, but RFC/U is purely on user conduct.--Caspian blue 19:43, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Mediation Underway

Hello. I am your mediator that you requested to solve your situation in this article. Please come to this mediation page and state your side of this issue in clear terms. I have tried to read over the talk in question and it is circular. I wish to clear up this issue. Thank you. --NewSinew (talk) 15:27, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

User:Badagnani is quite a problematic editor who, not only on your medation case, but on nearly all List of X-Americans, reverts and calls for fake 'discussions' OR 'consensus' he never participates in. He uses the same cookie-cutter response on those articles too 'rv massive page blanking; see talk'. That type of BS. Check out the list of Hungarian Americans, as well as the history of List of Norwegian Americans. Bulldog 21:35, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
I have been made very aware of the situation with Badagnani. I am aware of his previous track record at this time and we will see about the results of the mediation; it is likely drawing to a close. Thank you for your input. --iAdem (talk) 19:17, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Re:Badagnani RFC

Thank you for the notice, I will join in it. I think getting broader opinions from editors who've known him and edited with him for a long time would be helpful as well.--Caspian blue 23:53, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Although I don't know you at all, but I truly sympathize your agonies to keep Misplaced Pages "encyclopedic".--Caspian blue 02:02, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

A bit of salt

Finally, the conversation (?) containing various dreadful "curse" and vengeful threats" poured by the rude editor is deleted. I think you'd better walk away from the ice creme article because that does not look good for yourself since the DR is ongoing.--Caspian blue 02:25, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Ice-cream headache

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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. Viriditas (talk) 09:09, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
