subst: when using TestTemplates

I was just about to warn a user that you had previously warned, but you snuck in and warned him just ahead of me. =) Nice catch. However, I noticed that you don't always subst: when you issue warnings. You should always subst: when using the TestTemplates. -- Gogo Dodo 20:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Re your message: No worries. =) I missed the policy the first time, too. I believe there are couple of bots running that will find your warnings and change them to subst: so there is no need for you to fix the old warnings. If you really get into vandal fighting (it looks like you are), you might look into some of the tools that are available. I personally use popups and ARV, but there are many tools out there. -- Gogo Dodo 20:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my User page. =) -- Gogo Dodo 20:50, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome ;-) - Myanw 20:53, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Re your message: Just a little payback. =) That was an odd article. Normally you don't see such odd edits last for a couple of days. I think it was the obscurity of the topic that caused the long delay in cleaning things up. -- Gogo Dodo 06:39, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

see proof before reverting!

do not start reverting war!

I replied on your talk page User talk:71.99.115.10 - Myanw 16:44, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Myanw, I added some content to this page re Hidenburg and Robert Myers keps reverting it. H ehas previously had nil to do with this page but has previously been vandalising multiple pages I have put posts on. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:203.54.9.1 (talk • contribs) .

Hello, can I ask you to sign your message next time? Thanks - Regarding your edits on Battle of the Hindenburg Line my problem is that the name of the Australian captain is not relevant IMHO, is he notable enough to be named in Misplaced Pages? If you can prove he is, I'll have no further objection - Cheers - Myanw 12:24, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes he is not just about that he led that attack but that he also wrote many of the unit histories for the Australian Forces in WW1 and is archived in our National war museum as well as in the Battye Archives in Perth. He was also awarded an Order of Leopold (Knighthood) and Croix de Guerre for his actions in France and the Hindenburg battles. He was a noted Journalist and War Correspondent and was mentioned multiple times in the official Australian history of WW1 by Australia's official war historian.

Ok then, I suppose you already tried to create an entry for this man? If not, try to do that first and don't forget not to do any personnal attack, even if I understand you may feel frustrated by the reverts, you'd rather bring a request for arbitration instead - Myanw 12:49, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
