Promises of troop withdraw by American presidents throughout history


  • PETROL CONITUES TO DELETE THIS HE DOES NOT WANT YOU TO READ THIS:
  • WIKIPEDIANS before you vote, please see a description here of what has happened today to lead us to this point.Petral is misleading and deceptive. He has deleted my contributions to this article, and then accuses me of hiding information. Please click on the link for a full explanation. Travb 04:26, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Considering that Petral joined wikipedia today , I would be interested to know how he/she found this article and mastered the AfD process?
  • What user name did Petral use to learn how to master the AfD process? And is he using this user name to vote on this page's deletion?
  • Why did Petral delete my notice on the deletion page that the article name had moved?
  • Why did Petral, instead of accusing me of hiding the page after he deleted this notice, why didn't he simply move the page himself?

Additonal point, since the origional author decided to clone his article, keep voters should probably specify which of the two clones they want to keep, as obviously one of the duplicates would be removed either way--Petral 03:49, 23 December 2005 (UTC)



  • comment something isn't adding up here, at some point you moved the article somewhere else and cloned it's content, back into the origional article space, now I can't find where you moved the origional to--Petral 02:36, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • you are accusing me of something I am not doing--you make a lot of accusations, and add nothing to this article Petral. After You said yourself that "user is showing some restraint and is now cooperating with the AfD process". I added a link originally to the new name. I just created this article.Travb 02:54, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Petral, you cannot put an article on Afd then decide to skip the process and delete it yourself. In fact, unless you are a sockpuppet, you cannot delete it at all. Wait for the Afd process to complete. This is contentious behaviour on your part. Why not go have a nice cup of tea and allow the Afd to complete normally?

um, what? mistaken identity?--Petral 03:55, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Trying to read too many posts too close together, my apologies. I saw the "I will delete the article myself." by Travb, above, followed by your comment. For some reason I registered you (Petral) as the one who said that. Let me try this again:
Travb, You cannot create an article which is placed on Afd then decide to skip the process and delete it yourself. In fact, unless you are a sockpuppet, you cannot delete it at all. Wait for the Afd process to complete. This is contentious behaviour on your part. Why not go have a nice cup of tea and allow the Afd to complete normally?
Again, apologies for the mistaken identity. KillerChihuahua 04:03, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Adding note: As Travb did create the article, there is a speedy cat for that if that is what Travb desires. KillerChihuahua 04:06, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
Have you ever been involved in something that you really enjoy, a book, a movie, a warm bath. etc. And some rude idiot comes along and ruins it. I was smack dab in the middle of creating this article, minding my own business when Petral came along and ruined my "warm bath". I was going along, enjoying myself in a certain train of thought, and then all the sudden I get interupted, I get pulled out of the bath, thrown outside, and beat by some stranger. That may be historonics, but that is how I feel. I got to the point, I just wanted to throw up my hands and delete the damn article. I started a new article, and Petral and Petral's friends (maybe sockpuppers of Petral) all put that article up for deletion too.Travb 04:13, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
