MY TALK PAGE POLICY

I respond to all comments. Afterwards, I delete these entries in a few days. I do not like clutter and I think keeping unimportant information is a waste of space. There is very little interesting content in a user's talk page. Reviewing a person's talk page is, therefore, a fruitless venture. I eventaully delete all entries and keep a clean page. This is my personal preference and it is supported by wiki policy (see ). Some people claim that the talk page is required to see a block log, but all editors have access to see how many times a person has been blocked. I find keeping unimportant information is a worthless endeavor. Thank you. ER MD 22:02, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Breath

I knew you were going to bring that up, so allow me to explain: warning places accidently or without merit may be taken out-warnings put there for a reason are not supposed to be removed, ever. If you continue, you will be blocked again. The warnings you put on my page had not reason to be there. I can contribute without a username and it's obviously not against policy. And the 3RR rule doesn't apply when dealing with vandalism, which your removing of warnings constitues as. So calm down and stop removing warnings. 69.145.123.171 Monday, July 3, 2006, 22:22 (UTC)

And again, the inital warnings for "stopping" were invalid so removing them as according to what you are saying is valid, so i don't think you understand the initial reasons. Thank you. 162.119.232.101 00:20, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Uh, no, they were not. They were valid and should stay here. This is the last time I'm going to tell you. Stop removing warnings from your talk page. --69.145.123.171 00:59, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

user talk page policy

Most users treat their user talk pages like regular talk pages, and archive the contents periodically to a personal subpage — either when the page gets too large, on a regular schedule, or when they take a wikivacation. Others delete comments after they have responded to them.

Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages without replying (if a reply would be appropriate or polite) will probably be interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil, and this can become an issue in arbitration or other formal proceedings. Redirecting your user talk page to another page (whether meant as a joke or intended to be offensive or to send a "go away" message), except in the case of redirecting from one account to another when both are yours, can also be considered a hostile act. However, reverting such removals or redirects is not proper and may result in a block for edit warring. If someone removes your comments without answering, consider moving on or dispute resolution. This is especially true for vandalism warnings.

If you feel that your user talk page is getting too large and is taking a long time to load, you can create an archive and move the comments there.

Feel free to decorate your personal pages as you see fit, but keep in mind that your user talk page has the important function of allowing other editors to communicate with you. People will get upset if they cannot use it for that purpose.

I recognize that vandalism warnings need to stay if they are valid. If you look at my edits in the past, you will see that I have operated in good faith and developed a few articles. Given that this is the case, why not go directly to on the claim of vandalism. I think I will be vindicated. ER MD 00:35, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

This was a warning for incivility. This was a warning for personal attacks. This was for personal attacks. This was a warning for personal attacks. This was for user attacks. This and this were for userpage vandalism. This was a friendly reminder for blanking pages. Don't play dumb. You know what you've been doing and you are not allowed to remove messages. --69.145.123.171 01:06, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
