Note to Vandals
The nature of Misplaced Pages is, yes, you can vandalize my talk page, at least a few times. Don't worry, I won't take anything you say personally; since I am using semi-automated tools each reversion will take one click and perhaps as many as 2 seconds to remove, and I am old enough to not care at all what you say or think about me. It will also, alas, hasten your departure from Misplaced Pages as after a few warnings you will be blocked.
Instead, why not find an article and do something constructive with it?--Seaphoto 01:13, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Corona del Mar High School
I quoted your comment regarding Corona del Mar High School on Dougweller's talk page: "I think the inclusion of these controversies right at the start of the article is not encyclopedic". A prickly editor misinterpreted a comment I made and now seeks to silence me by using an Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, claiming a legal threat was made. Untrue. The editor misunderstood what constitutes a legal threat, which was not surprising because he/she also thought you can say a school has "serious social problems" without attacking it.72.194.125.162 (talk) 22:56, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- It looks like we have two different issues. One is the lead of the article, which I still believe gives undue weight to the quoted incidents. The other is the legal threat. Misplaced Pages is very sensitive to legal matters, and as a matter of policy once someone even mentions the possibility of libel and grounds for legal action there will be a lot of editors calling for an immediate block, as you have seen. I would urge you to refrain from such language, and concentrate your efforts on building consensus in articles you edit.
- Here is the page addressing Misplaced Pages's policy on legal threats. I think you will find it will help you from inadvertently getting a block.
- I know it can be frustrating when you see something that you believe is unfair, and I sympathize with that, but Misplaced Pages is a project built on give and take. There is also a social element in that you are dealing with people, so often the best action is to state your case and then step back and give others to a chance to comment and consider your arguments. It's also good to remember that we are not engaged in a contest, so there is no winning or losing, just a process to build the best encyclopedia possible.

Jonah David Mann
Hi. The original Jonah David Mann article is fake if you check the links. It should be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zyxon (talk • contribs) 02:38, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
- I Googled the name and he is indeed published in that field, so it appears you are not being honest - see Seaphoto 02:46, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi again. Happy New Year. Can you offer your opinion on which photo is better for the Infobox here? If you're not able to participate, just disregard this message; you don't have to message me. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 01:15, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
Vandalism and your Edits at Career Education Corporation site
Hello Seaphoto, Thank you for checking into my page. You asked me to leave you a message if I had any questions but I don't right now. I'm just cruising along, trying to get the facts into this school page. Since I'm pretty new to this, any suggestions you have would be appreciated. I did read the ones you left and thank you. The page was a disaster before I started cleaning things up a bit. :-) C. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.49.218.2 (talk) 22:22, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- That comment was from 2013 and concerned an edit to another page. Due to the nature of IP addresses it may not have been you it was directed to. Seaphoto 04:23, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
