N.B.

  • Please see the tags at the top of this page. I move comments that others add to this page if I perceive them to have been misdirected and/or I archive them. This is my User talk page. I archive comments when and as I wish. That is my prerogative. You can find them in the archive or moved to where they should be placed. Not here.
  • Please do not post any more comments on my talk page (if at all possible). Having already expended a great deal of my time to respond expeditiously, patiently, and courteously to earlier comments, I simply cannot and do not want to take the time to deal with them any further.
  • As already requested above: Please place comments about making improvements to articles on the talk pages of those articles. Thank you.
  • Due to my own other priorities (related to my own professional work and travel schedule), I am turning back to focusing on my own non-Misplaced Pages related work. Thanks very much to those who do understand for understanding. I appreciate your compassion.
  • Since first posting this, I have attempted to make some corrections to and to update a few articles that I have worked hard on recently, but I really do need to focus on my own work in order to get it done on schedule. I have to go offline to do it. For extended periods of time, I will not be logging back into Misplaced Pages.
  • Earlier discussions are in my "Talk archives".
  • The abbreviation "tc" in my editing box summaries stands for "typographical corrections."

Disrupting my talk page

I have asked people to stop posting about these matters on my talk page; the posts are disrupting more than my talk page; they are disrupting my work schedule and my life. I am very tired and I want to rest. I recovered from a recent month-long illness early in January, and I have no desire to fall ill again because of what I am regarding as disruptive activity by others (not I) on my (yes, my) Misplaced Pages talk page. Please stop disrupting my talk page, my work schedule, and my life. Please demonstrate some compassion. Thank you. --NYScholar (talk) 22:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

For those who need such guidance, before posting anything on my current talk page, please see: WP:TPG and Misplaced Pages:User page (sec. on User talk pages), particularly Misplaced Pages:User page#Removal of comments, warnings, and the other links at top of page, as well as my "N.B." sec. Thank you. (Updated. This will all be archived shortly.) ---NYScholar (talk) 23:11, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
NYScholar, this page is provided for other users to communicate with you. The way you are currently conducting, telling good faith editors and administrators to buzz off and stop disturbing you is not acceptable. I think if you have 'real life' work you need to do and you find other editors on Misplaced Pages an annoying distraction, you really ought to stop logging onto the site until you've finished your work and have time to respond to people's questions and concerns. Frankly, you shouldn't be editing Misplaced Pages if you're not prepared to respond to your fellow editors. Also, please consider using the 'preview' button and ensuring your post is complete and correct before posting it instead of making half-a-dozen minor edits to every post you make, catching people in multiple edit conflicts.

I am also a "good faith editor": WP:AGF. Everyone makes typographical errors; not every bothers to take the time to correct them. I do so in an attempt to have accuracy in articles in Misplaced Pages. These comments go beyond the pale. --NYScholar (talk) 00:05, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
